The wedding of Victoria, Crown Princess of Sweden, and Daniel Westling took place on 19 June 2010 in Stockholm Cathedral.[1] It had been described as "Europe's biggest royal wedding since the Prince of Wales married Lady Diana Spencer in 1981".[2] Westling thereby acquired Victoria's ducal title, becoming a Swedish prince and Duke of Västergötland.[3] In time for the wedding, a joint monogram of their initials was created.[4]
