It’s a wedding day plan that sounds like it was taken from the pages of a fairy tale.
After a ceremony at one of his grandmother’s castles, Britain’s Prince Harry and bride Meghan Markle will take a carriage ride around Windsor, a historic town that’s home to around 30,000 people.
“Prince Harry and Ms. Meghan Markle are hugely grateful for the many good wishes they have received since announcing their engagement,” Kensington Palace announced as new details of the May 19 wedding were revealed early Monday. “They are very much looking forward to the day and to being able to share their celebrations with the public.”
The palace didn’t specify which of the royal carriages the couple will use. Prince William and Kate Middleton traveled in the open-topped 1902 State Landau carriage in the procession from their wedding ceremony at Westminster Abbey to Buckingham Palace in 2011.
Harry and Meghan “hope this short journey will provide an opportunity for more people to come together around Windsor and to enjoy the atmosphere of this special day,” the palace statement added.
