Real Russian Royal Wedding: A Stunning 18th Century Celebration

People in historical costumes, wearing white stockings and buckle shoes

Thanks for sticking around for more of our Real Russian Wedding!
You will not be disappointed with the color and excitement of Carl and Katerina's over-the-top celebration. You will really feel like you have taken a step back in time. As we mentioned earlier the entire wedding from church to celebration had an 18th century theme. Which, definitely reminds me of the movie, Marie Antoinette.
The festivities took place over four days and were filled with traditional dress from head to toe. Thanks to the Swedish Wedding photographer Alicia Swedenborg for sharing this extravagant wedding with us.
