The 'big day' itinerary includes a "short journey" by carriage through the town of Windsor, leaving the castle at 1:00 pm (1200 GMT).
They hope this short journey will provide an opportunity for more people to come together around Windsor and to enjoy the atmosphere of this special day. pic.twitter.com/z8fukP2nea

I woke up early for Charles & Diana, Andrew & Sarah, William & Kate, I can definitely do the same for Harry & Meghan. 😊

Speculation over the wedding guestlist has also surfaced on Twitter.
Here's a question: Do you think POTUS Trump and FLOTUS Melania will get an invite to the royal wedding of #PrinceHarry and #MeghanMarkle in May? After all she IS an American! #RoyalWedding2018 #royals #weddings

The only couple I wanna see SLAY is Michelle and Barack thank you.
Hard to think of anybody who represents this more than Prince Harry, who lives in a palace and is funded by the taxpayer. At least Trump grew up paying his own way.

Who will be invited to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's royal wedding? The juiciest debate has been over invites for rival U.S. presidents Barack Obama and Donald Trump. pic.twitter.com/M2pvatjaGY

The royal wedding bells will be ringing on the same day as the 2018 Football Association (FA) Cup Final, a major sports event in Britain. Football fans have been reassured that the two happenings won't clash, as the match traditionally kicks off later in the day. Harry's brother Prince William usually attends the cup final being the FA president.
Now that we know it's a midday kick off for the #RoyalWedding we've odds of 2/1 on @Betfair that Prince William can do the double and make it to the FA Cup final as well….

Does anyone else find it very odd that organisers didn’t spot that FA cup final day and royal wedding clashed? it’s a nightmare in London with traveling at the best of times! is the 19th of May significant? I’m just curious 😎

Right folks! What's more important, the royal wedding or the FA Cup Final? At least we already know who the finalists are in the wedding….
