Public Celebration: A Royal Wedding for Everyone
On Friday, March 2, Kensington Palace made an official announcement stating, “They want their wedding day to be shaped so as to allow members of the public to feel part of the celebrations too.” How incredible is that? This is not just about two people tying the knot; it’s about bringing people together to share in the joy.

How to Be Part of This Historic Day
Here’s the scoop: 2,640 lucky individuals from all walks of life will get the chance to witness the royal couple’s arrival and departure from St. George’s Chapel. The big day is set for Saturday, May 19, at 12 p.m. UK time. These attendees will be handpicked by the nine offices of the Lord Lieutenants, who act as Queen Elizabeth's representatives. Among the invited guests will be 1,200 young people who share Harry and Meghan’s passion for leadership and philanthropy. Talk about inspiring the next generation!
But wait, there’s more! The guest list also includes 200 members from Harry and Meghan’s favorite charities, 100 children from local schools, and 610 people who work and live near Windsor Castle. Plus, 530 employees from the Royal Household will also be in attendance. While the odds might be slim, it’s still thrilling to think that everyday people could rub shoulders with royalty.
Their Love Story: From Meeting to Engagement
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle announced their engagement on November 27, 2017, and since then, they’ve been stealing hearts worldwide. In their first TV interview, Harry couldn’t stop gushing about his bride-to-be. He said, “This beautiful woman literally tripped and fell into my life.” Can you believe that? Talk about destiny. Harry added, “The fact that she will be unbelievably good at the job part of it as well is obviously a huge relief to me because she’ll be able to deal with everything else that comes with it.” Clearly, these two are meant to be together.
