YESTERDAY PRINCE CARL Philip of Sweden married the love of his life; former model and reality star Sofia Hellqvist.

Now, we know the Swedes are pretty good at being rides and eating food out of tubes. It turns out they’re also pretty good at putting on a royal wedding.

Here’s the evidence:

Look at the groom

Doesn’t the prince look a bit like Henry Cavill, aka Superman?

And even though he’s a beautiful royal Prince Carl Philip still made a hames of putting a ring on it

It’s a pretty fast number to walk back down the aisle to, but somehow they managed it.

Now, we wonder what time the triangle sandwiches and cocktail sausages came out at.

It’s a boy! Benedict Cumberbatch and wife Sophie have welcomed a snapper

Can you make it through all this nineties nostalgia without crying?
