Prince Harry and Meghan Markle to wed in Windsor in May
Prince
Harry and Meghan
Markle’s wedding will be in May at St. George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle,
the palace announced on Tuesday.
The latest arrangements were unveiled at a special briefing at Buckingham
Palace just one day after Harry, 33, and Meghan, 36, shared the news of
their engagement.
During the briefing, the couple’s Kensington Palace spokesman said the soon-to-be newlyweds are “extremely grateful following the warm public response”
to their engagement.
“Windsor is a very special place for Prince Harry, and he and Miss Markle
have regularly spent time there during the last year,” said the spokesman. “They
are delighted that the beautiful grounds of Windsor Castle will be where they
begin their lives as a married couple.”
The day will be “shaped so that members of the public” feel like a part of
it, he added. “This wedding, like all weddings, will be a moment of fun and joy
and reflect the characters” of both the bride and groom.
The spokesman added that the royal family will foot the bill for the key
parts of the wedding tab, including the church service, flowers, decorations and
the reception.
Meghan, the rep added, will be baptized and confirmed in the Church of
England prior to the wedding.
In a wide-ranging BBC interview on Monday, the couple revealed how Harry
popped the question during a “cozy” night as they
cooked roast chicken at their new London home, Nottingham Cottage at
Kensington Palace.
The wedding will take place during an exciting time for the royal family —
Harry’s brother, Prince
William, and sister-in-law, Kate
Middleton, are expecting their third
child in April.
