Gert’s Royals noted that the guests wore their Jordan Honors or their highest honor from home, such as Princess Kate’s blue sash for the Royal Victorian Order with her pink gown and Queen Mary’s Lover’s Knot Tiara.
The blog added that the group stood in an arrangement similar to where they were seated at the royal wedding, with monarchs and their spouses towards the front followed by heirs.

Last Thursday, Crown Prince Hussein married his architect sweetheart in an epic royal wedding nine months after they announced their engagement. Hussein and Rajwa tied the knot in an Islamic marriage ceremony at Zahran Palace in Amman, where his parents wed in 1993.
