The royal wedding brought Twitter to tears of joy Saturday as Prince Harry and Meghan Markle tied the knot, officially becoming the Duke and Duchess of Sussex in the process, but there was also plenty of laughter as memes and GIFs flooded social media in honor of the international spectacle.
From a spot-on comparison of Pippa Middleton's dress to a can of iced tea, to Donald Trump inauguration shade, it was a challenge to keep a straight face while watching the stunning ceremony from afar. Before we get to the funny stuff, though, let's take a moment to appreciate the reason we're covering this in the first place -- love. And this GIF perfectly captures it:
