The service will end at 1:00 pm after which the newlyweds will hop in their carriage and be driven along Castle Hill. The Kensington Palace said:
Prince Harry and Ms. Markle are very much looking forward to this short journey which they hope will be a memorable moment for everyone who has gathered together in Windsor to enjoy the atmosphere of this special day.
Prince Harry and Ms. Meghan Markle have selected the Ascot Landau carriage for their procession through Windsor Town after their wedding on May 19th. The carriage is one of five Ascot Landaus in the Royal Mews. The carriages are used in official and ceremonial state events, such as Coronations, Royal Weddings and State Visits 📷PA
How can you follow the activities on TV
Just as it was with previous royal weddings and important events, there will be the television coverage of this year’s royal wedding.
The wedding and procession will air live on TV stations around the world. They will all take their feeds from a single pool camera, which will capture all aspects of the nuptials.
In the UK, BBC, Sky News, and ITV will provide hours of live coverage.
Other channels like PBS, CBS, MSNBC, FOX, and ABC will also cover the event.
As of now, there has not been any official info on if there will be an online streaming of the wedding.
By the way, the Queen just gave her final stamp of approval
Queen Elizabeth II has officially consented to the royal wedding. The statement of consent was recently shared by the royal family.
The Queen has signed the Instrument of Consent, the hand-written document which records Her Majesty’s consent to the Marriage of Prince Harry and Ms. Meghan Markle. Follow our Instagram story to take a closer look.
The formal consent is required for the first six people in the line of succession. Harry is currently sixth in line, and without this consent, there is a possibility that he would be booted from the list.
