Here Are the Best Twitter Reactions to the Royal Wedding
The internet had a LOT of thoughts.
One of the greatest things about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's wedding (besides being a historic moment full of A-list attendees, and Meghan's incredible dress) is that it took place in the age of social media.
So it wasn't just the TV correspondents and onlookers in Windsor who could weigh in on the royal nuptials—we got to hear from the entire internet instead. Here are some of our favorites so far.
