Details regarding the highly anticipated wedding of Prince Harry and his fiancée, Meghan Markle, have just been unveiled. It’s been nearly seven years since a significant royal wedding has captured our attention in this way, and I’m already preparing to rise at 4:00 am with my coffee in hand to watch a live stream of a ceremony that seems like it belongs in a fairytale. The time has come—Prince Harry and Meghan have shared their wedding day schedule!
That excited sound you hear? It’s my enthusiastic squealing leading up to May 19, 2018. The Palace took to Twitter this morning to announce the details of the couple’s nuptials, and it promises to be an enchanting day. The celebration will kick off with a noon service at St. George’s Chapel, located on the grounds of Windsor Castle, where Prince Charles married Camilla Parker Bowles back in 2005. The day will wrap up with an intimate reception hosted by the groom’s father.
Before delving into the specifics of the day, the Palace expressed gratitude on behalf of Harry and Meghan for the warmth and support they’ve received since announcing their engagement.
Exciting Details of the Day
Now, onto the exciting details! The service at St. George’s will be led by the Dean of Windsor and officiated by the Archbishop of Canterbury, which adds an air of grandeur to the occasion.
After the ceremony, the newlyweds will participate in a carriage procession through Windsor Town, returning to Windsor Castle along the Long Walk. This thoughtful gesture allows more spectators to catch a glimpse of the royal couple right after they say “I do.” Many fans camp out all night to catch sight of the newlyweds, so it’s heartwarming of them to ensure their loyal supporters can celebrate alongside them.
Next, the couple will enjoy a lavish reception at St. George’s Hall, followed by a more private celebration hosted by Prince Charles for close friends and family. We can certainly expect the presence of William and Kate, the Duchess of Cambridge, who will have welcomed the couple’s third child just weeks prior. Talk about commitment from a sister-in-law!
While we can anticipate plenty of memorable moments on the big day, it’s worth noting that, since Harry is not next in line for the throne, the scale may be more understated compared to William and Kate’s grand Westminster Abbey wedding, which accommodated 2,000 guests. St. George’s Chapel, in contrast, holds just 800 attendees, hinting at a more intimate affair for Harry and Meghan. Nevertheless, we can look forward to adorable British children dressed to the nines and an exquisite wedding gown that we’ll all be dreaming about.
Only three months to go—who’s counting? (I am, obviously!)
