Princess Stephanie's wedding speech to son Louis and daughter-in-law Marie will make you cry

During the couple's wedding dinner, Princess Stephanie gave a speech. Recalling her tender words, the Monaco royal shared, “I said to Marie, 'It's been many years now that you're part of our family, but now it's official!' I added that I could not dream [a] better daughter-in-law, and that I hoped to be up to the job as a mother-in-law.”

“Then I told my son how happy I am to be his mom, how proud I am of him and his career. Proud, too, because he knew how to perpetuate the values transmitted by Prince Rainier, my father, his papoune, of whom he was very close and who counts so much for him,” she added. “These words came from the heart. Louis and Marie have managed to ensure that their loved ones no longer form a single large family around them, and this is what is important. For them, and for the rest of their story.”

Stephanie noted that her “little boy has become a man.”

Louis and his college sweetheart Marie's nuptials began on July 26 with a civil ceremony. The following day, on July 27, their religious ceremony took place at the Monaco Cathedral.
