Peter Phillips and Autumn Kelly Wed at St. George’s Chapel
In the first wedding among the younger British royals, Peter Phillips married Canadian Autumn Kelly at St. George’s Chapel in Windsor Castle today, May 17.
Peter is the eldest grandchild of Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip, and the son of Princess Anne and her first husband Captain Mark Phillips. He is 11th in line to the throne. Autumn is a management consultant, and the daughter of Brian and Kitty Kelly. She has a twin brother named Chris.
The bride wore a Sassi Holford gown of Chantilly lace and duchesse satin, and a full veil. A tiara loaned by Princess Anne, and a necklace and earrings given to her by Peter completed her radiant look. Three bridesmaids, who included Peter’s sister Zara, wore sage green dresses by Vera Wang. The groom was properly dashing in a formal coat and light green tie.
After the hour-long ceremony, the new Mr. and Mrs. emerged from the church holding hands. They had photos taken on the steps of the church with some of their guests. Then they rode a horse and carriage to nearby Frogmore House for the fesetivities. The use of the mansion for the wedding was granted by The Queen and The Duke of Edinburgh to their grandson. There was a reception and dance for 350 guests. The menu included Cornish crab and Welsh lamb, coffee mousse and sugared doughnuts.
The couple employed a wedding planner, Peregrine Armstrong-Jones, to organize their big day. Flowers were by Rob Van Helden, and photography was by Sir Geoffrey Shakerley.
Congratulations to the bride and groom! May your marriage be long and full of joy!
