The Queen's Grandson Peter Phillips Is Getting Married This Weekend!
Queen Elizabeth II's grandson and King Charles' nephew Peter Phillips is set to tie the knot this weekend!
The occasion will be an 'intimate' affair, with Peter and nurse Harriet Sperling set to exchange vows at All Saints Church in the sleepy village of Kemble.
Kemble is described as possessing all the classic 'charm and character' of the Cotswolds region. The Cotswolds is 'very special' to the couple, as it is where they both grew up.
The reception will be hosted by Peter's mother Princess Anne at her official residence of Gatcombe Park, a 17-minute drive from the church.
So what royals will be out in force for the society wedding of the year?

First of all, if you're wondering whether Prince Harry will be there amid continuing tensions with the royal family: no. The Duke of Sussex and his wife Meghan Markle are understood not to be invited to his cousin's nuptials.
However Prince William and Kate Middleton are attending, with William and Peter said to be very close. They grew up together during royal family summers spent on the late queen's Balmoral estate in Scotland, and Christmases on the Sandringham estate.
Princess Anne will of course be there, as will her husband Sir Timothy Laurence, and Peter's father Mark Phillips.
So will Peter's little sister Zara Tindall and her husband Mike, as well as their three children Mia, Lena, and Luca. The family already lives on Princess Anne's 700-acre Gatcombe estate, in a seven-bedroom farmhouse on Aston Farm whose converted 'Party Barn' no doubt helps ease the isolation of rural living.
Savannah Phillips (15) and Isla Phillips (14), Peter's children from his marriage to Autumn Kelly, will be there, as will bride Harriet's 13-year-old daughter Georgina.
All three girls were recently pictured hanging out together when they attended Easter service at Windsor earlier this year.

King Charles and Queen Camilla are expected to attend, but they also have a pretty important social event taking place on the same day: the Epsom Derby, which the queen only missed twice during her reign of 70 years.
As the Epsom Derby is taking place 100 miles away, it's possible that Charles and Camilla will miss the wedding ceremony but will be able to congratulate the newlyweds at the reception.
Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor is another royal who is firmly off the guestlist, but his daughters Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice are invited. It remains to be seen whether they will actually attend. The princesses have been keeping a low profile since their father was arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office in February.
Eugenie is currently pregnant with her third child, due to arrive this summer. The news was announced via the royal family's official Instagram account, indicating that Eugenie is still welcome within the royal fold despite Andrew's tarnished reputation.
The caption read, "Her Royal Highness Princess Eugenie and Mr Jack Brooksbank are very pleased to announce that they are expecting their third child together, due this summer.
"August (aged 5) and Ernest (aged 2) are also very excited to have another sibling join the family.
His Majesty The King has been informed and is delighted with the news."
So the next big question is, will the bride Harriet wear a tiara from the royal vault on her big day?
We'll have to wait and see. But if a tiara does make an appearance on the big day, it will most likely be from Princess Anne's personal collection.
For example the Festoon Diamond Tiara was a personal gift to Anne in 1973. She wore it for her engagement photoshoot with Mark Phillips. But it's unlikely that Harriet will borrow it as it was worn by Peter's first wife Autumn on their wedding day in 2008.
Perhaps the beautiful Meander Tiara will be loaned to Harriet, as it was to Anne's daughter Zara when she married Mike Tindall in 2011.
The Meander Tiara features diamonds in a Greek key style, reflecting Anne's Greek royal heritage. It belonged to Prince Philip's mother Princess Alice of Battenburg, and was a wedding present from Alice to her new daughter-in-law Princess Elizabeth when she married Philip in 1947.
The queen was never pictured wearing the tiara in public, instead choosing to gift it to her daughter when Anne turned 18 in 1968.
