Royal wedding: Zara Phillips marries Mike Tindall

Zara Phillips married Mike Tindall in an elegant ceremony in Edinburgh’s Canongate Kirk yesterday.

Zara, 30, wore a full-length ivory silk gown designed by Queen Elizabeth’s favourite couturier Stewart Parvin. She accessorised the outfit with a silk tulle veil, Jimmy Choo shoes and a diamond tiara borrowed from her mother. Mike, the English rugby captain, donned a simple morning suit.

After the ceremony, guests including Prince William and Kate Middleton and Prince Harry attended a reception at the nearby Palace of Holyroodhouse, which is the queen’s official Scottish residence.
