I think the Ascot Landau looks more "low rent" I hope they go with the other one, his parents and brother used it, will be worth the harder navigation, hopefully will only get married once so do it in style.

Here is the 1902 State Landau used in multiple royal processions. IMO it is too large for the narrower streets of Windsor.

QuoteEXCLUSIVE - 'We'll have front row seats for Harry and Meghan's wedding!' Homeless say they won't be budged for the big day as they pitch TENTS next to Windsor Castle
Homeless people living near Windsor Castle have boasted they will have a front row seats for Prince Harry and Meghan's wedding
Tory councillor Simon Dudley said he wanted homelessness 'epidemic' cleared before the royals' big day
But now rough sleepers have dug in their heels and begun pitching tents just yards from the royal castle
They insist they will not be moved because they have nowhere else to go
Twitter users angry at Cllr Dudley's have started the group #royalsleepover promising to take sleeping bags to the wedding to support street dwellers

I hope this is peacefully resolved. The best option is Russell Brand's for the local councillors to give the actual building free of rent.

Meghan Markle news - Where public will see Prince Harry first kiss fiancee at wedding | Royal | News | Express.co.uk

QuoteMEGHAN Markle and Prince Harry will mark their marriage with a public kiss before they head out to meet excited royal wedding watchers, and a royal expert has revealed where it is likely to happen.

LouisFerdinand

What would be the most number of bridesmaids and flower girls Meghan would have?


TLLK

@LouisFerdinand -It could be any number I guess, but most British royal weddings seem to have between 4-8 little bridesmaids and/or older and a few pages. Princess Anne opted for just one of each: Prince Edward and Lady Sarah Armstrong-Jones.

Recent weddings:

Kate-4 little bridesmaids and one adult maid of honor,  with two page boys.

Sophie-2 little bridesmaids and 2 page boys.

Zara-4 young bridesmaids, 1 page boy, 1 adult maid of honor

Meghan Markel Prince Harry wedding: SAS ready to die for royal couple | Royal | News | Express.co.uk

QuoteAn elite close protection unit made up of 30 SAS soldiers has been assigned to protect the prince and his bride at their Windsor wedding in May.

A handful of the regiment?s most hardened soldiers who have fought in war zones from Iraq to Afghanistan have met with the pair to discuss the arrangements, the Daily Star reported.

War technology will be bought in, including US-designed bullets which can change course mid-flight to follow a moving target.

The smart bullets known as EXACTO ? Extreme Accuracy Tasked Ordnance - will be paired with the latest sniper rifles for the nuptials at Windsor Castle. Using the latest equipment for the battlefield, the team snipers could strike a target 2,000m meters away 90 percent of the time.

Curryong

It's all up in the air as to whether Meghan will go with the American habit of adult bridesmaids/matrons of Honour or the modern British Royal fashion of mostly child attendants with perhaps one adult or near-adult to keep them under control.

My guess is that there will be at least four small attendants, mainly because George and Charlotte are certainties I think. Meghan has a  couple of little honorary Canadian godchildren and Harry has a small godson, Jake, the son of Mark Dyer. As well, Harry is very fond of Zara Tindall and may ask for Mia as a bridesmaid. Meghan may go for an adult bridesmaid or two, but who I really couldn't say.

TLLK

I believe that it is possible that we might see Savannah and Isla Phillips involved as bridesmaids too. It would be lovely to see so many of QEII and the DoE's great-grandchildren who are certainly old enough to participate.

Meanwhile at his age,  Viscount Severn might be secretly  relieved and thrilled if he doesn't have to be involved.  :wink:

Curryong

Rather than James I think Harry would have asked  Tiggy's elder son if he'd like to be a pageboy as he is Harry's eldest godson. Can't think of the boy's name at the moment but Harry has been a dutiful godfather, turning up to school events and so on. He would have been a shoe-in if he had been around George's age, but as a near-teen he can now relax and just be a guest with his brother and parents!

Net of spikes to tackle royal wedding terror threat | Daily Mail Online

QuoteA giant net covered in spikes is among the measures being used by police to prevent a terror attack at the royal wedding.

The 30ft mat to deflate tyres is designed to stop vehicles from targeting crowds in Windsor town centre when Prince Harry marries Meghan Markle.

Thames Valley Police, which will oversee security on May 19, is understood to have bought the X-Net from technology firm QinetiQ.

It punctures tyres and destabilises the wheels of vehicles that drive on to it, the Sunday Star reported.

The device was deployed on two streets in Windsor just before Christmas and then again a couple of weeks ago ? the first time the nets have been used outside London.

Miss Piggy angling for Royal Wedding 2018 invite after revealing crush on Prince Harry | London Evening Standard

QuoteMeghan Markle might need to watch her back ? Miss Piggy is angling for an invite to the Royal wedding, and she has a crush on Prince Harry.

The famous Muppet claims she missed her chance with the prince as she was dating Kermit the Frog.

She is now hoping to be among the guests this May when the couple tie the knot at Windsor Castle in a bid to bag herself some ?handsome royalty?.

She said: ?I am going to try to get invited and who knows?

:D

Well, James Middleton is now free and will probably get an invitation. Perhaps Miss Piggy could start a relationship with him and he can smuggle her into St George's as his plus one!

Meghan Markle's Meditation Coach Says She'll Be Amazing | PEOPLE.com

QuoteWatkins, who worked with Markle before her romance with Prince Harry, helped to guide Meghan in meditation. And with her calm confidence, Watkins tells PEOPLE that he has no doubt that Meghan will excel in her new role.

?She?ll do amazing,? he says. ?She was just delightful from beginning to end when we were working together. She also has a level of maturity that allows her to have a big change like this and stay level-headed and centered. I?m happy and excited for her.?

Church has 'dealt with' Meghan Markle's divorce, Archbishop of Canterbury says

QuoteThe Archbishop of Canterbury says Meghan Markle's divorce is something the Church of England has "dealt with" in the same way it would with any other couple.

Speaking as he prepares to officiate at Meghan's wedding to Prince Harry in May, the Most Reverend Justin Welby was asked whether her previous marriage was an issue.

"It's not a problem," he said. "The Church of England has clear rules with dealing with that and we've dealt with that.

"We went through that as anyone would who will officiate at a wedding where someone has been separated and a partner is still living."

Prince Harry invites Chelsy AND Cressie to his wedding  | Daily Mail Online

QuoteSome brides would be intimidated by the presence of the groom?s former girlfriends at their wedding, but Meghan Markle is confident enough to have no such worries.

I hear Prince Harry is to invite his two long-term exes, Chelsy Davy and Cressida Bonas, to his nuptials at Windsor in May.

?Harry has stayed good friends with Chelsy and Cressida, so they will be there,? one of his pals tells me. ?He made sure there were no hard feelings when they split up. I don?t think Meghan will mind.?

Her ex-husband, film producer Trevor Engelson, will not be on the guest list. Unlike Chelsy and Cressie, who have never tried to cash in on their relationships with Harry, Engelson is making a provocative television show about a divorcee who marries a member of the Royal Family.

QuotePRINCE Harry and Meghan Markle are set to invite their nearest and dearest to their wedding in May - but it?s thought that Camilla?s children could be left off the guest list.

They'll be invited. I think Tom and Laura are cordial, though not close, to Charles's sons. And Charles, who is paying for part of this wedding, would be enormously insulted if Camilla's offspring weren't guests.

Meghan Markle's wedding dress likely to be classic | Daily Mail Online

QuoteShe and Prince Harry may have only just announced their engagement, but there is already a huge amount of speculation about what she'll be wearing on the big day.

And now, it has emerged that Meghan Markle has previously hinted at what her dream wedding dress would be.

Before she was revealed to be Prince Harry's girlfriend, the actress, 36, described in an interview how her ideal gown as something that is 'classic and simple', calling Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy's wedding dress her 'everything goals'.

Meanwhile, she also said the fairytale gown worn by her Suits character Rachel Zane was 'not my personal style', saying that she'd prefer something more 'relaxed'.

This suggests that Meghan's wedding dress is likely to be rather different to the Duchess of Cambridge's traditional gown by Alexander McQueen, which she wore to walk down the aisle in 2011.

Prince Harry And Meghan Markle?s Wedding Day Security Could Cost $33 Million, Threats Anticipated

QuoteIt takes a lot to secure a high-profile wedding, and Prince Harry and Meghan Markle?s big day could cost quite a fortune in terms of security. While most royal wedding details have been kept in utmost secrecy, experts are certain of one thing: security will be topnotch, particularly in the aftermath of the anthrax scare and racist threat that targeted the actress last week.

Given the large crowd witnessing the event and the heavy VIP list that consists of powerful figures and A-list personalities, the ceremony is an attraction for chaos if not handled properly. As a matter of fact, Prince William and Kate Middleton?s wedding security in 2011 added a whopping $33 million to their total bill. According to E! News, the elaborate security system involved undercover police on the ground and snipers positioned on rooftops. Prior to the wedding day, security personnel had to do an extensive investigation on threats or potential threats.

So reports are today her gown will be Alexander McQueen by Sarah Burton costing up to 400 thousand.  That is double Kate?s. That is NOT good for MM in the pr dept.

Why why give more hatred, dangerous hatred coming her way.

I really wish she would scale back on the freebies, the riches. Yes, she will be and should afforded them as K is, however, MM is in such a delicate place. She really has no room for any errors.

Where are TPTB, the right advisors. A cap of $250,00O for her wedding gown.
Honeymoon, they, like K and W , already did that few times .
Why not just up to the Scottish highlands.

Make it simpler.
All their life will be a honeymoon.

TLLK

Now I wouldn't be surprised if Meghan chooses a British designer for her  wedding dress and it Sarah Burton certainly has experience with creating a royal wedding gown. It is possible that she might opt for an American designer for the reception though. Now as to the estimated costs of her gowns, I think it is a little early for these reports, so I'm going to take wait and see approach.

wannable

The DM is not claiming this story, but Look Magazine from the USA by some Meghan frenemy, although it is Too exorbitant. I hope that is not the price tag, yikes @FanDianaFancy says the public, any charity or humanitarian approach to the realization of confirmation of this news with a straight face...not.

And if it is, KP should make an official announcement of who is paying for it a la Middleton's did to Kate.

She's on a losing ground too, 6th in line second marriage, rather than future Queen.

There is so many negative bad angles. Oh well.
