I assume you meant the executions - perhaps you meant their marriage? It was a lengthy affair, beginning with the betrothal and then the marriage in front of the court at Versailles:

Execution Marie Antoinette

Question: marie antoinette's execution?
does anyone know what a peasant's general thought on marie antoinette's execution would be? THANKS
Answer: Hi,
In one hand, the peasant could say good riddance.
In another hand, the peasant could have pity for Marie Antoinette because her trial was a scam.
She was accused of abusing her children, which was an unfair accusation.
More details on Marie Antoinette's execution in this website.
Cheers.
Marie Antoinette
