With millions watching across the world, we take a look at what people were saying about the Royal Wedding on social media.
Richard Osman expressed the thoughts of the nations
I know the #RoyalWedding is not for everyone, but we all saw Harry lose his Mum so young, then grow up into this kind, cheeky, thoughtful guy. Now he’s found this incredible woman, and it brings a tear to my cynical eye. Have a great day everyone (also, enjoy the cup final).

“OK, this’ll be done in, what, 20 minutes, bit of glad-handing, wolf down the food, bang out the speech, quick change, Uber – just have to suck up the surge – could be at Wembley by 5.30… it’s doable. IT IS DEFINITELY DOABLE” (CC @MundialMag) #RoyalWedding pic.twitter.com/olSw5fhLFZ

Before vows were exchanged, US Bishop Michael Curry took to the pulpit to deliver an impassioned semon.
Garden designer Claire Farrow was a fan of the sermon
#HarryandMeghan #revmichaelcurry is sure kickin’ arse in the chapel! I’m.hoping there will be singing and somersaults in the pulpit, just like #BluesBrothers

The preacher is doing 50 in a 30 zone and it’s brilliant #RoyalWedding2018

American actor Josh Gad enjoyed Bishop Michael Curry’s sermon
Watching the Brits watch an American Preacher do his thing in Windsor is giving me life right now. It’s like watching Metallica do a concert in the Old Globe. #RoyalWedding

James felt he overthought one particular part of his speech
WHY DID HE SAY “SEXUAL UNION” LIKE THAT
He overthought it #RoyalWedding

There may have been emoji inspiration behind his theme
Any chance Bishop Michael Curry started with the 🔥 emoji and worked backward? #RoyalWedding
