Prince Charles and Diana's 1981 Wedding was one of the most-watched events in history, the event was extravagant and recalled by many as the most glamourous wedding of their generation.
A collection of 14 candid, previously unpublished photographs, taken during the wedding reception at Buckingham Palace on July 29, 1981 have just been made public.
They were taken by Diana's relative and he was the only photographer allowed to take informal photographs of the royal family and their guests when they returned to the palace for the reception. The pics will be sold at auction next month.
The pic above captures Princess Diana whispering words of encouragement to her five-year-old bridesmaid as she carries the young girl through the grand rooms of Buckingham Palace. At her side is Queen, who had just moments ago become her mother-in-law when she married Charles, the Prince of Wales, in a ceremony held at St Paul's Cathedral.
