Princess Caroline of Monaco’s stepson Prince Ernst August and his fiancé Ekaterina Malysheva married in a beautiful royal wedding on Saturday, July 8, 2017, in Hanover, Germany. Though the groom’s father, Caroline's ex-husband, also named Prince Ernst August, did not attend due to a financial dispute, the German royals happily wed before 600 guests, as well as thousands of members of the public who gathered outside, in the town's Market Church. The happy couple, who had officially tied the knot in a civil wedding on July 6 at the town hall in Hanover, also held two private receptions: a luncheon at the historic Herrenhauser Gardens and an evening reception at Marienburg Castle.Scroll through for all the highlights of the big day.Photo: Getty Images

The groom's brother Prince Christian of Hanover and his fiancee Alessandra de Osma also attended the wedding. The couple may have been thinking of their own nuptials, as they held their civil cermony in November 2017, and are set to say their religious vows in a royal wedding in 2018.
