The traditional approval of the British monarch (Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II) has been given to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle for their wedding on 19th May, 2018. From this day on, they are His Royal Highness Harry Duke of Sussex and Her Royal Highness Meghan Duchess of Sussex.
H&M’s wedding is a less celebrated happening than Prince William and Kate Middleton’s was in 2011, however, both attracts hundreds of thousands of people waiting outside Windsor Castle to cheer he newlyweds passing by in their horse-drawn carriage.
Harry and Meghan have invited about 600 people to the St George’s Chapel of Windsor Castle (no current politicians or Heads-of-State, though), and only about 200 will be appearing at the wedding party. Celebrities, however, do appear in their stylish and great attires including the David and Victoria Beckham, George Clooney, Sir Elton John or Oprah Winfrey.
Memorabilia and souvenirs have been available to buy for a couple of weeks all across the UK. From one of the most expensive one (Limited Edition Royal Wedding Official Commemorative Cup and Saucer pair, cost £ 195) to cheap stuff here’s a surely not complete A–Z list of items collectors can buy to decorate their homes.
All the souvenirs must contain approved photos of Prince Harry and Ms Meghan Markle as well as the full Coat of Arms of His Royal Highness Prince Harry of Wales.
There is a compulsory phrase to be printed / carved / inscribed on the sold item (also applies to regional language variations): To Commemorate the Marriage of HRH Prince Henry of Wales and Miss Meghan Markle, 19th May 2018. (*official rules to be found HERE)
