Now that we know the special meaning behind Meghan Markle’s engagement ring and the date of the nuptials has been set for May 2018, speculation is mounting around what we can expect from the big day.
Who will Harry choose as his best man and who will Meghan have as bridesmaids? Will Meghan choose an English or a Canadian designer to create her dress? And will we get a day off work for the royal wedding? (At the moment the government says no, but we’ve still got everything crossed.)
A lot of the focus has surrounded Kate Middleton, whether she’ll be a bridesmaid and if there are any rules she will have to stick to for the big day.

It’s a good thing Kate looks great in hats!
