Princess Eugenie has shared a beautiful video featuring never-before-seen footage from her gorgeous wedding to Jack Brooksbank last year to mark their one-year anniversary.

The video includes behind-the-scenes moments, like the finishing touches being made to the beautiful bride’s hair and makeup, close-ups of the wedding florals, foliage and décor – warm red, orange and pink hues for the autumn season – and a time-lapse of the wedding guests arriving and departing the ceremony.

“This was the greatest day of my life… forever and always,” Eugenie captioned the video, shared to her personal Instagram.

“Happy one year anniversary, my Jack!!”

Eugenie’s grandmother The Queen also marked the special occasion, sharing a photograph of the happy couple sharing a kiss on the steps of St George’s Chapel after their vows writing, “Congratulations to Her Royal Highness Princess Eugenie and Mr Jack Brooksbank on their 1st Wedding Anniversary.”

Eugenie, 29, and Jack, 33, tied the knot on October 12, 2018, at St George’s Chapel at Windsor, just months after her cousin Prince Harry wed Meghan Markle at the same venue.

Eugenie looked breathtaking in a gown designed by Peter Piloto and Christopher de Vos for her ceremony, featuring a V-neck and lower back detail which Eugenie had requested for, to show her scar from surgery to correct scoliosis when she was 12.

She accessorised with the stunning Greville Emerald Kokoshnik Tiara from her grandmother The Queen’s personal collection, which comprises of brilliant rose-cut diamonds set in platinum, which an emerald in the centre and six smaller ones, three either side. She paired this with diamond and gold emerald drop earrings.

Following the ceremony, 850 guests – which included royals and plenty of celebs – attended a reception inside Windsor Castle’s St George’s Hall followed by an evening reception held in the Royal Lodge Windsor, where Princess Eugenie made an outfit change into a stunning Zac Posen dress – a blush silk evening gown, which she revealed was reminiscent of Grace Kelly’s outfit in the 1955 film To Catch a Thief.

For the third and final party, guests were invited back to the Royal Lodge Windsor a fairground themed day of festivities, which included a carousel, fairground themed games and a marquee decorated with pretty florals and foliage.

And another beautiful black and white image of her and Jack sharing a kiss in their wedding carriage to mark Valentine’s Day.

Most recently though, the princess was excited to share photographs she’d taken of her older sister Princess Beatrice and Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi to announce their engagement.

“Beabea – wow!” Eugenie wrote alongside three images she’d shot of the happy couple following their engagement, including the beautiful engagement ring.

“I’m so happy for you my dearest big sissy and dear Edo. It’s been a long time coming and you two are meant to be.”

Beatrice, 31, and Edoardo, 36, announced their engagement at the end of September in a joint statement released by Buckingham Palace.

“We are extremely happy to be able to share the news of our recent engagement,” the couple shared.

“We are both so excited to be embarking on this life adventure together and can’t wait to be married.

“We share so many similar interest and values and we know this will stand us in great stead for the years ahead, full of love and happiness.”

While an exact date and venue have not yet been announced, the couple is set to tie the knot in Britain in 2020.
