Ring the bells!

The royal wedding event of the year is here! As always, when it comes to anything to do with the British royal family, people are obsessed with it. This wedding is especially fangirl-worthy since Prince Harry’s bride-to-be, Meghan Markle, is an American—as well as a Kappa Kappa Gamma in college at Northwestern University (but that’s more of a personal excitement).

I know, it’s tragic that we all missed out on marrying Prince Harry and Meghan Markle gets the honor. However, we can all help celebrate their marriage by hosting our own high tea wedding viewing parties and wearing some sustainable royally-inspired attire. Here are some outfit inspirations for an upcoming wedding that will make you feel like royalty.
