Kate Middleton's bridal flowers contain a touching tribute to her husband to-be.
Her shield-shaped wired bouquet includes sweet William, as well as myrtle, lily-of-the-valley and hyacinth.
As tradition dictates for royal weddings, the bride's bouquet contains a sprig of myrtle from the original myrtle bush planted by Queen Victoria at Osborne House, Isle of Wight in 1845.
But it also poignantly contains a sprig from a plant grown from the myrtle used in The Queen's wedding bouquet of 1947.
The bouquet was designed by Shane Connolly, who was also responsible for creating the "avenue of trees" in Westminster Abbey today.
Miss Middleton chose her flowers for their significance to the Royal Family, the Middletons and the language of flowers.
Sweet William means gallantry, lily-of-the-valley means return of happiness, hyacinth symbolises constancy of love, while myrtle is the emblem of marriage and love.
There is also ivy for fidelity; marriage; wedded love; friendship and affection.
Myrtle was carried by Queen Victoria's eldest daughter, Princess Victoria, when she married in 1858, and was used to signify the traditional innocence of a bride.
