Instead, she said, "I Meghan, take you, Harry, to be my husband, to have and to hold from this day forward; for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death us do part; according to God's holy law". Walked down the aisle accompanied part of the way by Prince Charles and by 10 young page boys and bridesmaids, she made heads turn in a handsome wedding gown designed by British designer Clare Waight Keller and a long veil that billowed out for many feet behind her long train.
Markle's mother, Doria Ragland, looked visibly moved. Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will marry in an Anglican service with an American flavor that mixes prayers, classical music, a gospel choir and sweet soul sounds.
The pair emerged after an hour-long ceremony, having minutes before been declared husband and wife by the Archbishop of Canterbury.
The Duchess's ring was made from Welsh gold, as is traditional for royal weddings, while Harry's was made of platinum. Some suppressed giggles. Zara Tindall, a granddaughter of the queen, looked as if she might fall off her chair.
Thomas Markle followed his daughter's wedding on TV and voiced regret he was unable to attend, United States celebrity news website TMZ reported.
It contained floral designs from her native California and all 53 Commonwealth countries.
Harry hand-picked flowers for Markle's bouquet from their home at Kensington Palace.
Prince Harry and bestman Prince William wore dark formal military dress, with white gloves and the frock coat uniforms of the Blues and Royals.
"You look awesome", Harry told his bride as she arrived. "Power to change the world. If you don't believe me, well, there were some old slaves in America's antebellum South who explained the dynamic power of love and why it has the power to transform".
Harry's ex-girlfriends Chelsy Davy and Cressida Bonas also attended.
Hundreds of street parties and public screenings were held around Britain where the wedding is a welcome respite for a country still burdened by austerity and divided over Brexit.
After the procession, Queen Elizabeth gave a lunch reception inside Windsor Castle for the 600 guests.
The royal couple cut the lemon and elderflower cake, while Charles and Harry made speeches introduced by William.
The couple met on a blind date in July 2016 and had a whirlwind romance, criss-crossing the Atlantic as she continued filming in Toronto.
Harry's gilded upbringing is in stark contrast with Markle's.
