From the beginning, it was an exercise in precision: there was the arrivals of the celebrity guests—from Priyanka Chopra and the [Beckhams](http://time.com/5259879/victoria-beckham-royal-wedding/ "undefined") to [Oprah](http://time.com/5283423/oprah-royal-wedding/ "undefined") and the [Clooneys](http://time.com/5283429/amal-clooney-royal-wedding-2018/ "undefined")—to the royal family to the bride herself, in a modern [Givenchy gown](http://time.com/5271176/givenchy-clare-waight-keller-royal-wedding-dress/ "undefined"), in a Rolls-Royce. Markle’s convoy drove past throngs of well-wishers who lined the Long Walk to Windsor Castle, having camped out for hours for a shot at a glimpse. Inside, Prince Harry, dressed in his [Blues and Royals uniform](http://time.com/5274140/prince-harry-wedding-outfit/ "undefined"), was eagerly waiting for her walk down the aisle: solo, at first, then with his father, Prince Charles. After the ceremony, which included an impassioned sermon by [Bishop Michael Curry](http://time.com/5283974/royal-wedding-bishop-michael-curry-reactions/ "undefined"), the newlyweds stepped outside for a kiss in front of the cameras and then hopped into a carriage for a procession around town. Photographers were there to capture it all.  Onlookers peek out from windows as a procession goes by, in celebration of the royal wedding, in Windsor.
