It's hard to believe, but Meghan Markle and Prince Harry tied the knot in their gorgeous royal wedding at Windsor Castle one year ago today (Sunday, May 19). It was the wedding viewed around the world, with an estimated 1.9 billion people worldwide tuning in for the nuptials. Now, to mark their first anniversary, the royal couple have shared a video via their Instagram account, complete with never-before-seen photos from the event and reception, including some behind-the-scenes pictures that will make you feel some major feels all over again.
"Happy one year anniversary to Their Royal Highnesses, The Duke and Duchess of Sussex!," the caption reads. "Today marks the one year anniversary of the wedding of The Duke and Duchess of Sussex. Their Royal Highnesses exchanged vows at St George’s Chapel within the grounds of Windsor Castle on May 19th, 2018."
The caption also includes a message from Harry and Meghan: "Thank you for all of the love and support from so many of you around the world. Each of you made this day even more meaningful."

The designer of Markle's wedding gown, Givenchy's Clare Waight Keller, also posted an Instagram with a montage of moments from the royal wedding. "Happy Anniversary to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex 💛," she wrote. "Watching this clip again exactly a year later all the emotions of this day come flooding back.......every moment from the instant she stepped out of the car and I walked over to arrange the dress and veil, to the roar of the crowds, the sound of the trumpets. That special moment when she looked back to me to see if the veil was ready and admire the crowd."
"Then you can see me as I went up the side of the steps to St George’s Chapel and slipped in to the right of the aisle for the final arrangement of the dress as they shut the gates to start the service," she continued. "The way the sunlight was just so perfect in the Chapel that day 💛 Her smile. A day and an event in my life I will never forget, it was truly so extraordinarily beautiful and an honour and privilege to be part of a moment in history and their lives. Truly humbling x x"
