Pippa Middleton and James Matthews

It turns out you can’t really have a low-key wedding if your sister is the future queen of Britain. Pippa Middleton, famous after her role as maid of honor at Kate Middleton’s wedding, married James Matthews in 2017. Their wedding faced scrutiny due to its high cost, estimated at $940K.

The couple had two of everything: venues, photographers, receptions, and dresses. Royal family members, including Kate’s children, Prince George and Princess Charlotte, participated in the ceremony. Celebrity guests included Roger Federer and Prince Harry. Despite the expenses, the wedding was a beautiful (and relatively intimate) celebration of love, reflecting Pippa’s and James’s commitment to each other.
