Zara Phillips gets Married in Edinburgh

Zara Phillips marries Mike Tindall in Edinburgh

This afternoon, beautiful Zara Phillips, daughter of Princess Anne, married the England rugby player Mike Tindall at the 17th century Canongate Kirk on the Royal Mile in Edinburgh.

The last royal wedding to take place in Scotland was in 1992, when Princess Anne married Timothy Laurence.

It’s been suggested that Zara will keep her maiden name, because of her sporting career.

The bride’s dress was an ivory silk and satin gown designed by Stewart Parvin, accessorised with a veil, tiara and Jimmy Choo shoes. ‚   I particularly love Zara’s bridal bouquet of white calla lillies and scottish thistles.

The couple are now celebrating their marriage with a reception at Holyrood Palace in Edinburgh.

  • vanilla sponge decorated with roses
  • chocolate cake sprinkled with daisies
  • lemon sponge topped with butterflies
