Curiosities wedding of Grace Kelly and Prince Ranieri

It was the April 19, 1956 when a beautiful Grace Kelly walked down the aisle to become the wife of Prince Ranieri of Monaco. A region that hardly anyone knew locate on the map but that it would one of the great events of the last century. The young actress was saying goodbye to his country, America, and his career, to become part of royalty.

Her dress, made with 300 yards of lace and tulle 90 meters, was a gift from MGM studios designed by Helen Rose. Prince Rainier was the first sovereign to marry a commoner, so very few royal families attended the wedding. There were over 600 guests, something that, later, the couple complain.

A great time they experienced all those who had seen that. An event that made history, even more than it will be that between Prince Albert and Charlene Wittstock.
