Harriet Sperling Sparkles in Diamond Tiara As She Marries Queen Elizabeth II's Grandson
Harriet Sperling looked absolutely stunning at her wedding to Peter Phillips today.
Peter is Queen Elizabeth II's grandson and King Charles III, so the royal family were out in force for the big day.
The bride wore a high-necked lace gown by Emilia Wickstead and an etheral wedding veil, which she accessorized with a sparkling diamond and pearl tiara.
We were wondering whether she would be loaned a tiara from the royal vault (currently overseen by Queen Camilla) or whether the groom's mother Princess Anne would loan her one from her personal collection.

In the end, Harriet's tiara was crafted by Pragnell, the London jeweler that designed her engagement ring.
Pragnell designed Queen Elizabeth's engagement ring back in 1946, with Prince Philip requesting they incorporate diamonds from a tiara that had belonged to his mother, Princess Alice of Battenburg.
Harriet's matching diamond and pearl earrings were also by Pragnell.
Sweetly, the bride's veil was carried by her 13-year-old daughter Georgina from a previous marriage and Peter's daughters from his marriage to Autumn Kelly, Savannah (15) and Isla (14.)
All three bridesmaids wore simple white dresses and flower crowns.
The couple were married at an intimate ceremony at All Saints Church in the village of Kemble. Princess Anne is set to host the wedding reception at her nearby Gatcombe estate later today.
Previously it had been speculated that Harriet would wear Princess Anne's Festoon Diamond Tiara, which Anne wore for her engagement photoshoot with Mark Phillips in 1973. But perhaps this was always unlikely as it was worn by Peter's first wife Autumn on their wedding day in 2008.
Another option for Harriet would have been Anne's rarely seen Meander Tiara, featuring diamonds in a Greek key style that reflects Anne's Greek royal heritage. It belonged to Prince Philip‘s mother Princess Alice, and was a wedding present from Alice to her new daughter-in-law Princess Elizabeth when she married Philip in 1947.

The queen was never pictured wearing the tiara in public, instead choosing to gift it to her daughter when Anne turned 18 in 1968.
It was always possible that Harriet wouldn't wear a tiara at all. Neither Princess Anne or Queen Camilla opted for tiaras at their second weddings. However Meghan Markle wore the Queen Mary Diamond Bandeau Tiara at her wedding to Prince Harry in 2018, even though she had been previously married.
In the event we're very glad that Harriet chose to step out in the stunning but understated headpiece!
Kate Middleton and Prince William were among the royals guests at Peter and Harriet's wedding today, with the Princess of Wales wearing a blush tweed dress by Roland Mouret and a boater hat.
King Charles and Queen Camilla were also there, as were Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice and their husbands.
Ever thrifty Princess Anne rewore the yellow hat that she wore to her daughter Zara's christening in 1981.
She also wore a yellow coat with a cream shawl.
Notable by their exclusion from the guest list were Prince Harry, whose tensions with the royal family continue, and Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, who was stripped of his titles last year and is being investigated for misconduct in public office.
