Prince Harrys and Megan’s wedding took place Saturday 19 May 2018 at St George’s Chapel. Although it’s not traditional for a royal wedding to take place on the weekend, the couple settled on a Sunday to enable as many people as possible to come and enjoy the ceremony
It is reported that the government had voted not to grant a public holiday for the wedding, which was the reason the couple decided not to follow the tradition.

On their official Twitter account, the royal family wanted to express their gratitude to all the people that enjoyed the wedding by saying: “Thank you to everyone who came to Windsor and those who followed from around the UK, the Commonwealth, and the world today. Congratulations once again to the newly-married Duke and Duchess of Sussex. #royalwedding.”
The dress cost anywhere between $250,000 and $400,000!
Ms. Markle was wearing a stunning white gown with white veil, which was created by British designer Clare Waight Keller, the first female Artistic Director at French fashion house Givenchy.

The Duke of Cambridge was the best man of the royal wedding, and by tradition, he was in charge of bringing the right to the soon-to-be-married couple. Unlike his brother, Prince Harry decided to wear his wedding ring.
With that, Ms. Markle became the first mixed-race person to marry a British senior royal.
We wish all the luck to the happy couple and hope they stay together and happy for many years to come.
