REPORTAGE The Royal Wedding: Meghan Markle Weds Prince Harry On May 19, 2018, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle tied the knot at St. George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle. Top celebrities like Oprah Winfrey, Serena Williams, and Elton John were invited to the celebrations, while thousands of well-wishers lined the streets to wave at the couple, who arrived at the reception via a horse-drawn carriage. The wedding was elegant in every way. Projected figures vary, but estimates have indicated that Harry and Meghan’s wedding cost £32million overall. Aside from security costs, much of the wedding itself was paid for by the Royal Family. Prince Harry proposed to Megan with a custom diamond engagement ring. Harry designed the piece himself, which was then made by court jewelers Cleave and Company using one diamond sourced from Botswana and two smaller stones from Princess Diana’s collection. 12 www.glamsquadmagazine.com
