Western tabloids managed to find out new details of the wedding of the Duchess of Cambridge's sister Kate Middleton Pippa and her millionaire fiancé James Matthews, which .

Note that the wedding took place in two stages - in the morning, the young people, where many children were present, including Prince George and Princess Charlotte, for. And at seven in the evening the newlyweds threw a party for their guests at the Bucklebury estate, but without the kids.

It was the most anticipated wedding of the year, so it was no surprise that the new Mr and Mrs Matthews gave their guests a spectacular party they would never forget.

One of the entertainments was a light show. The newlyweds' faces, as well as footage of their love story, were projected onto the windows of Bucklebury Estate for guests to enjoy.

Note that colored lights were visible inside the huge glass tent until 4 am.

We were also surprised by the wedding menu. In the afternoon, at the first stage of the celebration, guests were offered the newlyweds' favorite dishes, ranging from cheese slices to fruit cake. It is known that Ruinart Blanc de Blanc champagne was offered as an aperitif. Pippa and James did not forget about the children, so they were treated to sandwiches, raw vegetable salad and sweet desserts.

According to sources, the festive tables featured delicious canapés, served with carpaccio and mushroom filling, fresh langoustines and asparagus in Hollandaise sauce. The wedding menu also included foie gras, small toasts with various fillings and all kinds of desserts, including jelly. The cake, by the way, was cut before the guests arrived at the party. It was covered with white glaze on top.

During the second part of the festive banquet, which took place in the evening, guests were offered a five-course menu, which included lightly salted trout starters, lamb main courses and Stornoway black pudding (the Scottish national dish).

On Saturday, the wedding of Pippa Middleton, the younger sister of the Duchess of Cambridge, Catherine, and millionaire James Matthews took place.

This wedding has been talked about in Britain for several months, ever since it became known that the couple was engaged. However, the place and time of the ceremony were kept in the strictest confidence until the very end, and only a few people closest to Pippa knew which designer would make the bride’s wedding dress.

The ceremony took place at St Mark's Church in Englefield, in Berkshire west of London - the Middleton family's parish church. The church, part of which dates back to the 12th century, is a local landmark and is located just 9 kilometers from the village of Bucklebury, where the Middleton children spent their childhood. On the wedding day, the territory of the church itself, as well as the area adjacent to it, was blocked to the passage of anyone who did not have an invitation. The organizers placed signs along the road asking not to disturb the guests of the closed event. However, this did not stop the paparazzi and onlookers who gathered nearby in order to at least from afar look at the “wedding of the year,” as British journalists dubbed it.

Katherine with children

Among the guests were friends and relatives of the newlyweds, including tennis player Roger Federer, the groom's brother and part-time star of the reality show "Made in Chelsea" Spencer Matthews and, of course, Princes William and Harry. Until recently, it remained an intrigue whether Harry would appear at the wedding alone or accompanied by his friend, American actress Meghan Markle. This could be their first official appearance. Despite insider reports that Megan was at the unofficial part of the ceremony, there is no confirmation of this either. The media are vying with each other to report that the wedding of Harry and Meghan themselves is just around the corner and supposedly the actress even took a break from her career in order to be able to prepare for the event, but at the moment one can only be sure that there is a romantic relationship between Harry and Meghan . This information (and only) was confirmed by the press service of Kensington Palace in October 2016, but it is premature to talk about the wedding.

While Harry, William, Catherine and Pippa's younger brother James and other guests were enjoying their time together, the Duchess of Cambridge was carrying out an important mission: giving instructions to the children who played the roles of flower pages and looking after them. Shortly before the wedding, Katherine admitted that she was worried about the behavior of her kids, and, as it turned out, not in vain. Touching photos in which Katherine sternly explains something to her son and daughter have already spread around the world. Catherine and Princess Charlotte

The ceremony itself was traditional and very beautiful: the bride in a long lace dress drove up to the church, accompanied by her father. Near the altar, slightly behind Pippa, stood Catherine, who carefully straightened her veil and dress. After Pippa and James said the cherished “Yes” in the presence of the guests and the priest and accepted congratulations, everyone moved to the domain of the Middleton family. Near their house, a glass tent was built especially for the celebration, in which guests were seated at tables. In total, about 150 guests were present at the celebration, which is quite a small number, given the popularity of the newlyweds.

On Saturday, the wedding of 33-year-old Pippa Middleton, the younger sister of the Duchess of Cambridge, Catherine, and 41-year-old millionaire financier James Matthews took place.

James proposed to Pippa in June last year while the couple were on holiday in the Lake District in northern England. By that time, their romance had lasted about a year, although they had known each other for 10 years.

Dad Michael brought the bride to the church in a limousine, and sister Kate provided support - both moral and very real, especially since straightening such a wonderful dress was a pleasure. It was made by British fashion designer Giles Deacon, and even upon close inspection, the impression is that it was sewn without a single seam.

The long veil was made by British hatter Stephen Jones, and the ivory satin shoes were made by Manolo Blahnik. On Pippa's head is a small tiara in the shape of Venus's hair.

The elder sister did not play the role of bridesmaid, but chose a more responsible role for herself: looking after the young pages and the flower girl, who became the two-year-old Princess Charlotte.

At this wedding, which journalists have already dubbed “the main social event of the year,” the youngest guests - Prince George and Princess Charlotte - were given the honorary duties of page and flower girl. They seemed to be very pleased, at least with themselves and with each other.

The groom's brother, 27-year-old Spencer Matthews, known for playing himself in the reality show Made in Chelsea, met the arriving guests.

Princes William and Harry dressed almost identically, but chose a different color tie. The press wrote a lot about whether Prince Harry's friend, American actress Meghan Markle, would appear at this wedding, but cameras did not capture her anywhere.

Although, of course, there were many famous guests - for example, tennis star Roger Federer and his wife Mirka.

The wedding dress code, as we see, was subject to free interpretation, but almost all women decorated their heads with a hat or facinator.

How to get to work: Prince George and Princess Charlotte's nanny, Maria Borello, also hurriedly arrived at the wedding.

The ceremony took place at St Mark's Church in Englefield, in Barkshire west of London - the parish church of the Middleton family.

Wedding 2017 - the marriage of Pippa Middleton and James did not go unnoticed, neither by the press, nor by the motley public, nor by the entrepreneurs who made money on the spectacular celebration. How much money did the newlyweds spend to declare their love to the whole world?

Official data has not yet been received on how much the wedding of the Duchess of Cambridge's sister costs, but some prices for services are already known. There is information that the wedding banquet required about 700 thousand dollars for all expenses.

Experts made some conclusions about the wedding of Pippa and James based on what they saw:

The engagement ring that James Matthews gave to his beloved is valued at $349,000.

The wedding rings that Philippa and James exchanged are worth approximately $27,000.
Pippa's wedding dress was valued by insiders at $52,000, which is 10 times cheaper than Kate Middleton's wedding dress.

Philippa Middleton planned to organize a wedding on the same scale as her older sister's royal wedding. But this plan still failed to be fulfilled; the Prince of Great Britain spent much more money on the wedding than the amount of 700 thousand dollars.

The festive table required personal attention. Pippa Middleton personally selected every dish that was presented at the wedding reception. Insiders found out that a large order of beluga caviar was placed, which is estimated at about 50 thousand dollars. In addition, Pippa and James' wedding guests were treated to a classic Scottish dish made from sheep's offal, tried haggis, a lamb delicacy, and washed it all down with expensive whiskey.

As sources said, delicious canapés were spectacularly presented at the wedding tables, next to mushroom solyanka and carpaccio. The table would not be complete without fresh langoustines, foie gras, and asparagus in an amazing hollandaise sauce.

In total, about 300 of her closest and dearest guests were invited to Pippa Middleton's wedding. The banquet, closed to the press, took place at the Englefield estate.

What surprised guests at the wedding of Kate Middleton's younger sister

Philippa Middleton has prepared some unusual surprises. She decided to worry about the guests invited to the wedding and proposed building a glass palace, which in case of rain would save everyone present from discomfort. The glass structure, which cost 100 thousand dollars, was assembled in about 3 days.

Tennis tables are located under the very arches of the palace. This is Pippa's favorite board game, so she decided to amuse the audience this way. In addition, the guests were entertained by a musical group whose name is still unknown.

The wedding party turned out to be more than hidden from view. If during the day the newlyweds actively posed for the paparazzi, everything that happened after the wedding ceremony turned out to be far behind the scenes.

In the evening there was a light show.

Confidentiality was carefully managed and checked. Each guest had an identification card with him, which should have a photograph. Before entering the palace, a secret password had to be provided. They were distributed to guests 3 months ago.

Waiters with model appearance served famous guests at the table. The employees were provided by a specialized company that trains actors and models.

All the staff who worked on the wedding were not allowed to use their favorite mobile gadgets with an Internet connection for 24 hours. A non-disclosure agreement was signed with the employees.

Prince Harry and his loneliness

Prince Harry's friend Meghan Markle was still invited to the wedding. She was not able to attend the wedding ceremony near the church, at least the paparazzi could not notice her, but the girl was present at the banquet.

The main motto of the wedding invitation was: “No ring, no bring.” It means. What if you don't have a ring on your finger, then come to Pippa and James' weddings alone. Even members of the royal family were no exception to this rule. Meghan Markle couldn't sit at the same table with Prince Harry.

However, this is a good sign. All married couples were seated in such a way that they did not sit next to each other.

On May 20, the wedding ceremony of Pippa Middleton and her chosen one, James Matthews, took place. The newlyweds were married in Berkshire at St. Mark's Church. The event was closed, in some places they even blocked the road and no one was allowed in without a special invitation. Curious onlookers, wanting to get a glimpse of the celebration, stood along the road and waited for the newlyweds to come out.

Couture dress

A perfectionist, Pippa began to exercise intensely a few months before the ceremony and even went on a special diet so that her wedding dress would perfectly highlight her figure. She succeeded perfectly and shone at the ceremony. The modest dress with a flirty cutout at the back looked chic on Pippa. The long train gave the outfit a truly royal charm, and the pearls on the shoes and jewelry harmonized perfectly with the lace. The beautiful lace dress was designed by Sarah Burton and the veil was designed by Stephen Jonze.

Entry is by invitation only!

The wedding event was quite modest, the newlyweds invited 350 people, and 100 of their closest relatives and friends attended the ceremony in the church. The wedding was attended by Princes Harry and William, Pippa's sister Kate, the groom's brother Roger and other close relatives. After the ceremony, guests were invited to a festive banquet in Berkshire, where a glass palace was built especially for this celebration. The evening's menu was approved by the bride herself. The reception was divided into two parts, the first part took place after the ceremony, and the second in the evening. During the first part of the holiday, guests were offered foie gras, carpaccio, langoustines and asparagus in sauce, as well as various types of desserts, and during the second part, trout and lamb, as well as a delicious Scottish pie.

Organization of the evening

The wedding party was spectacular. A light show was organized for the young people, and a famous music group was also invited. The guests had fun and danced until the morning, and multi-colored lights sparkled in the windows of the glass palace. The newlyweds spent about 300 thousand pounds on organizing the event. Considering that Pippa's engagement ring costs 150 - 200 thousand pounds, we can say that the young couple did not spend much on the wedding. But on Monday, May 22, they fly off on a honeymoon to the resort of Tetiaroa, where they will have plenty of fun and relaxation.
