From Harper's BAZAAR

Princess Beatrice and Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi married in an intimate ceremony on Friday.

Their picturesque, intimate wedding took place in Windsor with just a handful of family present, including the Queen and Prince Philip.

The bride's vintage gown was loaned to her by the Queen, who had worn the Norman Hartnell gown on several occasions herself. Hartnell, a favourite designer of Her Majesty's, also created the Queen’s own wedding and coronation dresses.

Mozzi took to Instagram to share a touching poem for his bride, alongside some pictures of the bride and groom from the day.

"I carry your heart with me (I carry it in my heart) I am never without it (anywhere I go you go, my dear; and whatever is done by only me is your doing, my darling) I fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) I want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true) and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you."

"Here is the deepest secret nobody knows (here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud and the sky of the sky of a tree called life; which grows higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide) and this is the wonder that’s keeping the stars apart."

"I carry your heart (I carry it in my heart)."

The poem is by American poet E.E Cummings, and was written in June 1952.

The couple were due to tie the knot at the Chapel Royal of St James's Palace at the end of May, but cancelled the ceremony in March due to the pandemic.

Instead, they got married at The Royal Chapel of All Saints in Windsor on Friday, 17 July.
