I thought I’d follow her journey and visit her homes from Pennsylvania to the palace in Monaco.
While attending the Cannes film festival, Grace Kelly and Prince Rainier III met while Kelly was touring the palace in May of 1955. This is where their love story began, and in January of 1956 they were engaged, and married in April of the same year.

Very chic. But leaked renderings for decorations for the upcoming wedding reception appear nightmarish. Hopefully all will turn out for the best, though.
Classicist,
I hope that it will be a “fairy-tale” wedding...
It will be hard for anyone to fill her shoes!!
Quintessence,
I agree...
it seems we like many of the same things and topics
