The royals stopped on the steps outside St George's chapel at Windsor Castle to share their first smooch after tying the knot on Saturday (19.05.18) and the crowd went wild.

The pair then embarked on an open carriage ride in the grounds of Windsor Castle, before heading through the streets of Windsor.

Wedding guests including the royal family, Meghan's mother Doria Ragland and Meghan's 'Suits' co-stars followed the couple outside to wave them off.

Prince Harry and Meghan - who was known as Meghan Markle before her wedding - will now be referred to as the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, after Queen Elizabeth conferred a Dukedom on her grandson on the morning of the wedding.

The duchess wore a gown created by British designer, Clare Waight Keller, who last year became the first female Artistic Director at the historic French fashion house Givenchy, for her big day.

The stunning dress featured three quarter length sleeves and a bateau neck and was accompanied by a beautiful veil representing the Commonwealth.

The veil is five meters long and made from silk tulle with a trim of hand-embroidered flowers in silk threads and organza.

Meghan also wore a diamond tiara, on loan from Harry's grandmother Queen Elizabeth.

Kensington Palace added: "The veil is held in place by Queen Mary's diamond bandeau tiara, lent to Ms. Markle by The Queen. The diamond bandeau is English and was made in 1932, with the entre brooch dating from 1893."

She opted for earrings and a bracelet made by Cartier along with Givenchy shoes.

Meanwhile, Prince Harry wore the frockcoat uniform of the Blues and Royals, as did his brother and best man Prince William.

The groom handpicked flowers for his bride's bouquet from their private garden at Kensington Palace to add to the bridal bouquet designed by florist Philippa Craddock.

Meghan's hair was styled by Serge Normant, while her friend and make-up artist Daniel Martin was in charge of her make-up.

Clare Waight Keller designed the bridesmaids' dresses in the Givenchy Haute Couture Atelier in Paris, while the four pageboys wore miniature versions of the Blues and Royals frockcoat.
