About Mrs. Penguin

This week, LIFE.com is featuring a beautiful historical photo gallery of Grace Kelly’s wedding to Prince Rainier. We’ve all seen the iconic pictures of Grace Kelly in her wedding dress, but it’s so fun to see the events leading up to the wedding, like Princess Grace cleaning out her cubicle in Hollywood before she embarks on her journey to Monaco and pics of her meeting her new in laws:

You’re right! Those are fantastic captions. The lace for her dress was bought from a museum? Wow. Great pics. Thanks for pointing out this story.

I’ve probably seen that last picture you post here dozens of times, but this is the first time I noticed the little flower girl looking up at the ceiling, appearing to be at the beginning of a yawn. Hee.

I have a book written by one of her Bridesmaids, and it’s a fascinating read about the inside details of the wedding. It was written as a memoir of her life and is really a sweet book.
