Everything you need to know about the royal wedding of Lady Gabriella Windsor

A more understated royal wedding took place in Windsor Castle today, Saturday. Lady Gabriella Windsor has tied the knot to financier Thomas Kingston on Saturday in the same venue as the past two royal weddings: St George’s Chapel in Windsor Castle. This wedding was not be televised as the couple won’t have any of the public obligations as the previous couples, Meghan and Harry and Eugenie and Jack.

What do we know about the wedding?

The venue of George’s Chapel will be familiar to many recently because it’s where Meghan and Harry wed last year (in the same weekend), as well as the setting for Princess Eugenie’s wedding to Jack Brooksbank. It’s a historic venue, intended for low-key celebrations – as opposed to Kate Middleton and Prince William’s marriage at Westminster Abbey in 2011. It isn’t just used for weddings as Harry was also christened there in 1984 and William was confirmed there in 1997.

Despite being the guest of honour, the Queen won’t host a reception in Windsor Castle; in the same fashion as Harry and Meghan, the newlyweds will host their afternoon reception at Frogmore House. The venue has a “personal resonance” for the couple since Lady Gabriella’s grandparents, the late Duke and Duchess of Kent, are buried at Frogmore.
