A high society wedding! Liechtenstein Princess Maria Immaculata marries her classical singer boyfriend after 'five-year secret romance'

Princess Maria Immaculata of Liechtenstein was a vision in white as she wed her secret boyfriend of five years in a lavish ceremony on Halloween. 

The daughter of Prince Gundakar of Liechtenstein and Princess Marie d'Orleans exchanged vows with her new husband, classical singer Zurab Dzidziguri, at St Peter's Church in Vienna on October 31. 

While Zurab wore traditional Georgian wedding attire, Princess Maria, 35, opted for an off-the-shoulder lace wedding gown by a Georgian designer in a nod to her husband's roots.

Princess Maria finished the look with a lace veil and the glittering Peacock Tiara, which dates back to 1926 and originally belonged to her paternal grandmother's family, the House of Thurn und Taxis. 

Photos obtained by the Daily Mail showed Zurab helping Princess Maria down the steps of a horse-drawn carriage outside the church where the pair were wed. 

Honouring Greek Orthodox tradition, the bride and groom wore two crowns during the exchange of rings as guests from Europe's royal houses congratulated the happy couple. 

Princess Maria and her husband looked completely smitten as they cut their four-tiered wedding cake five years after falling in love on the slopes of the Caucasus.

Princess Maria was 30 when she moved to Georgia to learn Russian at the suggestion of one of her friends.

However, they kept their relationship under wraps before Princess Maria introduced her partner, also 35, to the reigning Prince of Liechtenstein in August, ahead of their nuptials. 

When asked what she values most about her relationship, Princess Maria, also known as Lata, said: 'Our relationship has developed harmoniously, and I simply feel at ease when I’m with him.

'We love interesting conversations and travelling; we share the same values and, of course, a love of classical music.' 

She revealed how Zurab, born to a doctor and engineer, 'won my heart' when he proclaimed 'she is my person' in front of the wedding guests. 

Princess Maria's dashing husband is a trained baritone and restaurateur, whose sister, Princess Kristine de Bagration-Mukhrani, is married to Prince Juan Bagration-Mukhrani of the Georgian royal family.

Speaking after her brother's wedding, Princess Kristine said: 'Today's wedding in Vienna, as well as being a celebration of love, has also become a symbolic meeting of Georgian and European cultures, traditions and family values. 

'I congratulate them from the bottom of my heart on the beginning of a new chapter of happiness,' she said, according to the Express. 

'I would like to express my sincere gratitude to everyone, to their friends and to our dear guests, for coming to Vienna and for making this special day so beautiful.'

Last year, Princess Marie Caroline of Liechtenstein wed Leopoldo Maduro Vollmer in a lavish ceremony at the Cathedral of St. Florin in Vaduz - although they are based in London.

The 28-year-old, who is the only daughter of Prince Alois - heir to the throne - and Princess Sophie, looked appropriately regal for her big day, donning traditional bridal white.

Princess Marie Caroline, who has three brothers, was the first of the siblings to announce an engagement and walk down the aisle.

She has one older brother, Prince Joseph Wenzel, and two younger - Prince Georg and Prince Nikolaus.

Princess Marie Caroline revealed she was engaged to Leopoldo Maduro last year via an official press release issued by the Liechtenstein royal household.

It read: 'H.S.H. the Hereditary Prince and H.R.H. The Hereditary Princess von und zu Liechtenstein are delighted to announce the engagement of their daughter, Princess Marie Caroline, to Mr Leopoldo Maduro Vollmer.

'The wedding is planned for late summer next year.'

The statement was accompanied by a portrait of the happy couple, which showed a beaming Princess Marie Caroline sporting a teal frock, while her beau looked dapper in a navy suit.

The groom, 33-year-old Leopoldo Maduro Vollmer, is an investment manager. Born in Caracas, he was educated in the UK, attending Harrow.

He then studied for his undergraduate degree at St Andrews. His postgraduate degree is from Queen's College, University of London.

Meanwhile, his wife got her Bachelor of Arts in Fashion Design from Parsons School of Design in Paris and New York.

Although Princess Marie Caroline's father is destined to be king, because Liechtenstein still operates under agnatic primogeniture rules - the only European monarchy to do so - she is not in the line of succession.

However, her eldest brother and her two younger brothers are all in the line of succession.
