4 Things You May Not Have Known about the Royal Wedding

Royal weddings will always fascinate the world. There’s just too much of a fairytale element in them not to make us all dreamy and excited – and Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s wedding does not make any kind of exception from the rule.

Of course, as many celebrity and royal weddings are, few details are actually confirmed. But what is it that we know at this point about the upcoming royally Big Day? We have gathered everything down below – so read on and find out more.

According to a statement made by Meghan herself, the proposal was very intimate and sweet. She told the press that Harry proposed to her out of the blue, while they were making dinner at home. Obviously, she said “yes”.

• The ring is a splendid piece that combines craftsmanship, beauty, elegance, and amazing meaningfulness. With a central diamond brought from Botswana (where the couple had an amazing adventure together) and with two other stones that were taken from Princess Di’s very own personal collection, the ring embraces family history and bright hopes for the future in a design that would make any woman on Earth feel jealous.
• The location of the wedding ceremony has been confirmed – and, to the surprise of many, it will not be Westminster Abbey like in the case of Kate Middleton’s wedding. The new royal couple chose a smaller chapel for their wedding, which can hold approximately 600 people – a sign that they will want a more intimate wedding.
• Did you know Prince Harry’s favorite fruit are bananas? To bring her future husband’s taste into the Big Day, Meghan picked a banana cake for the royal wedding. That’s actually a premiere, because although royal wedding cakes are usually made with fruit, banana-based cakes have never been done at this kind of events.
• As for the wedding menu, nothing much is known. Rumor mill has it that Meghan will want to American food to the wedding too – so we can only look forward to seeing royal guests munching on late-night, typically American snacks.
