Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have invited thousands of members of the public to their May 19 nuptials at St George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle in England.
“Prince Harry and Ms. Meghan Markle have said they want their wedding day to be shaped so as to allow members of the public to feel part of the celebrations too,” Kensington Palace said in a press release on Friday. “This wedding, like all weddings, will be a moment of fun and joy that will reflect the characters and values of the bride and groom.”
Nine regional Lord Lieutenant offices will nominate 1,200 commoners from a “broad range of backgrounds and ages, including young people who have shown strong leadership, and those who have served their communities,” the statement revealed.
The guest list will also include 200 people from a range of charities and organisations that have close ties to the bride and groom.
