Royal wedding 2018: When is the royal wedding in May? How many days to go?

The ceremony will take place in St George's Chapel - nestled within the grounds of the Queen's west London residence – and will begin at midday UK time.

For those royal fans across the pond, this means a fairly early start to televised proceedings, which will commence at 7am EST.

St George's Chapel is far more modest than the 2,000-seater Westminster Abbey where Prince William and Kate Middleton tied the knot back in 2011 - with only enough space for around 800 guests.

It is the same venue where in 2005 Prince Charles and Camilla Parker Bowles received a televised blessing following their civil ceremony.

As with his father's special day, Harry's wedding to the Suits star will be televised live across the nation.

Millions of people are expected to tune in, and viewing numbers could top the 27 million Britons and 23 million Americans who watched his older brother get hitched.

Following the ceremony, Harry and Meghan will travel through Windsor in a horse-drawn carriage, starting at around 1pm.

The procession will travel along a route near the castle – liked to be lined by adoring flag-waving fans – before arriving back at St George's Hall for the reception.

Prince Charles will then host a private reception in the evening for the couple's close friends and family.

Last week it was announced that Prince William would fill the role of best man, a position which Harry held at his brother's wedding seven years ago.

And it is likely that Meghan's entourage will be particularly star-studded.

Tennis ace Serena Williams, Made in Chelsea star Millie Mackintosh and Bollywood actress Priyanka Chopra have all been tipped to appear as bridesmaids.

Despite the glamour of the occasion, down-to-earth Harry and his blushing bride-to-be are apparently keen to celebrate in a way which will include members of the public.

This means that 2,640 loyal subjects have been invited to the celebrate within the castle grounds on the day, including 1,200 people across a range of specialities who have demonstrated strong leadership in their community.
