Is the younger Middleton sister the most eligible bachelorette in England?
The ceremony was at St. Mark’s Church in Englefield, west of London, to be followed by a private reception at the bride’s parents‘ estate in nearby Bucklebury.
The bride’s parents, Carole and Michael Middleton, had an elaborate glass marquee built on the grounds of their estate for the reception. Guests were advised to bring two outfits so they could change after the wedding ceremony.
The airspace above both villages was closed to prevent intrusive press crews from flying overhead or launching drones to get video footage.
There was speculation Harry will bring his American girlfriend, actress Meghan Markle, to the reception. Their relationship has become serious in recent months, with Harry speaking out to ask the press to respect their privacy.
