The announcement of Mathilde's engagement to the Belgian heir-apparent Prince Philippe came as a surprise to the country. Mathilde married Philippe on December 4, 1999 in Brussels, civilly at the Brussels Town Hall and religiously at the Cathedral of Saint Michel and Saint Gudula. Mathilde's bridal gown was designed by Edouard Vermeulen. She was made Duchess of Brabant and a Princess of Belgium on 8 November 1999 (published on 13 November 1999 and effective from 4 December 1999).
The couple have four children:
Princess Elisabeth, Duchess of Brabant, born in 25 October 2001 at Erasmus Hospital in Brussels
Prince Gabriel, born in 20 August 2003 at Erasmus Hospital in Brussels
Prince Emmanuel, born 4 October 2005 at Erasmus Hospital in Brussels
Princess Eléonore, born 16 April 2008 at Erasmus Hospital in Brussels
Princess Elisabeth, the couple's eldest child, is the first in line to the throne and ahead of her younger brothers and sister, who are second, third, and fourth in line to succeed, owing to a change in Belgian succession laws in 1991, allowing for the eldest child to succeed, regardless of gender.
