| Reverse description | The reverse displays a three-tiered wedding cake adorned with a quilted lattice pattern and pearl-like beaded borders on each tier, topped with two intertwined hearts serving as a cake topper. A bouquet of detailed roses in full bloom flanks the right side of the cake, adding a romantic floral element to the composition. The legend 'CANADA' arcs above along the upper periphery, while 'DOLLAR 2019' appears in the lower field. A beaded border runs along the inner edge of the hendecagonal rim, completing the design. |

| Additional information |
Issued to mark the 2019 wedding of Lady Gabriella Windsor to Thomas Kingston, this is one of the quieter commemorative releases in the Royal Canadian Mint's circulation dollar program — a British royal event with no particular Canadian resonance beyond the Commonwealth connection. Production was folded into the Mint's standard loonie infrastructure, brass-plated steel being the workhorse composition for high-volume commemorative circulation strikes from this period. Kingston died in February 2024 at 45, of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
