As far as I'm concerned, Princess Eugenie's mother, Sarah Ferguson, stole the show at the second royal wedding of 2018. From her stunning Mother of the Bride outfit, to her incredible reactions to just about every moment, Fergie (as she's commonly known) was an absolute delight. So it's no surprise whatsoever that her second outfit of the day was every bit as flawless as the first. Fergie posed for a photo, before the evening reception started, with her hair and makeup artist, Mattias Stafsing, who is the founder of Lernberger Stafsing haircare. Captioning the chic picture of Princess Eugenie's mom, Stafsing wrote, "Hair & makeup for the brides mother The Duchess of York. A real pleasure working with you!" Wearing another shade of green for her second outfit, Fergie changed into a long-sleeved, satin gown for Eugenie's evening party, and she looked absolutely stunning: This content is imported from Instagram.

For Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank's wedding ceremony, Fergie wore a fitted green dress by a local designer called Emma Louise. Her matching wide-brim green hat, with its spectacular golden bow, was created by milliner Jess Collett. The look caught the world's attention, and most definitely helped Fergie stand out on her daughter's big day. TOBY MELVILLE Getty Images Ferguson is extremely close to both of her daughters—Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice—and in a 2007 interview with Harper's BAZAAR, she revealed, "We do everything together, even go clubbing, which caused some people to say, 'Can't you back off? They don't want their mother there.' So I asked them and they said, 'No, we want you to come because you're hip-hop, crazy, mad.'"

The dress, designed by the label’s Peter Pilotto and Christopher De Vos, features a neckline that folds around the shoulders to a low back that drapes into a flowing full length train. The fabric of her gown includes a number of motifs that hold particularly special meaning to Eugenie and her new husband. The symbols include a thistle for Scotland, to acknowledge her and Jack’s fondness for Balmoral castle (the royal family’s Scottish holiday home), a shamrock for Ireland as a reflection of her maternal family, the York rose and ivy to represent the couple’s home. fergie Credit: Getty; AP Images Leading up to the wedding, she revealed that she planned on wearing a British designer and hinted that she would show off her back scar from surgery at 12 years old to correct her scoliosis.

Prince Andrew And Sarah Ferguson Wed Credit: Hulton Archive/Getty Fergie married Prince Andrew on July 23, 1986 at Westminster Abbey wearing a show-stopping number by Lindka Cierach. The gown, which featured a huge skirt and pouffy sleeves, is made from ivory duchesse satin and featured a scoop neckline, beaded bodice and billowing sleeves. A 17-foot train also featured intertwined initials of an A and an S sewn in silver beads. “The most important thing to me was that Sarah loved it,” the designer told PEOPLE. “I wanted her sense of fun to come out in the dress.” Eugenie and Fergie also wore dramatically different tiaras for their wedding day. While Ferige famously wore her York Diamond Tiara — specially commissioned for Fergie as a gift from Queen Elizabeth for her wedding — Eugenie borrowed hers from the Queen. While Fergie wore a traditional dramatic veil, her daughter opted without one to show off the beautiful low back design of her gown.

The tiara was made by Boucheron for Dame Margaret Helen Greville in 1919 in the fashionable “kokoshnik” style popularized in the Russian Imperial Court.

Arriving four minutes late, the Duchess of York showed up at St. Windsor's Castle in a bright green Emma Louise gown. As she walked up the steps of St. Windsor's, with her eldest daughter Princess Beatrice, she occasionally grabbed her hat to make sure it didn't fly away in the wind. Getty Images Getty Images Judging by Twitter reactions, most folks absolutely loved Fergie's outfit. Some, however, noted that her hat kind of resembles the golden snitch from Harry Potter because, well, it's the Internet. This content is imported from Twitter.

Twitter silliness aside, David Zyla, Emmy-Award-winning stylist and author of , says Fergie's color choice has a deeper meaning behind it. "A green means renewal, life, and association with being refreshing and peaceful," he tells GoodHousekeeping.com. Besides Fergie, Princess Anne also chose to wear a green hue for Eugenie and Jack's big day, so it's safe to say there's definitely a theme going on.

From the best dressed guests to the bride's stunning gown, it was one head-turning outfit after another. Mother of the bride Sarah, Duchess of York had not one but two chic green ensembles prepared for her daughter's wedding. Sarah first arrived at St. George's Chapel ahead of the ceremony wearing a vibrant green dress created by local Windsor company Emma Louise Design. The shade of green almost perfectly matched the emerald stone adorned in Princess Eugenie's wedding tiara. Sarah also carried a vintage Manolo Blahnik bag that paid tribute to her own royal wedding to Prince Andrew in 1986; Sarah's mother, Susan Barrantes, originally chose that bag to wear to Sarah and Andrew's wedding, when she was the mother of the bride. See Sarah's ceremony ensemble here: WPA Pool Getty Images After the ceremony and lunchtime reception held at Windsor Castle, where Prince Andrew gave a touching speech in honor of the bride and groom, the guests traveled to Royal Lodge, where Sarah and Prince Andrew hosted an evening reception. For that occasion, the mother of the bride had quite the outfit change. Sarah chose a stunning green dress by Emanuel Ungaro. See the photo here: This content is imported from Twitter.

Princess Eugenie is the one walking down the aisle this morning, but her mother Sarah Ferguson, Duchess of York, will also be front and center in today's celebrations. The mother of the bride just arrived at Windsor Castle absolutely beaming with pride and looking lovely in a vibrant green dress designed by Emma Louise Design, a brand local to Windsor. Sarah also carried a vintage Manolo Blahnik bag that her mother, Susan Barrantes, wore to Sarah and Andrew's royal wedding in 1986. See the full look here: ADRIAN DENNIS Getty Images As is British custom, she accessorized with a festive hat, set atop her signature red hair. Fergie, as she is known, had a hand in today's event, and in particular she helped plan the more intimate evening reception, which will be held at Eugenie's childhood home, Royal Lodge later tonight. "Sarah and Andrew are helping to organize the evening party," a source told Vanity Fair's Katie Nicholl earlier this summer. "Sarah is being very hands-on, but in a great way, and Eugenie wants her mum to be a big part of it all and will make sure Sarah is included in every aspect. Her feeling is the other royals will have to get on with it." The source is of course referring to the somewhat contentious relationship Fergie has with select other members of the royal family. Despite her agreeable relationship with her ex-husband Prince Andrew, Fergie was somewhat ostracized by his relatives following their divorce and a number of high-profile scandals in the 1990s. But the drama of years past seems to be out of mind this morning. The Duchess looks delighted to be at Windsor Castle, though a bit later we could see a few tears. "I do understand why mothers cry at weddings now," she remarked in the lead up to her daughter's nuptials. "All my life I thought, 'Oh, what’s she crying for?' It’s lovely, it’s a great day."
