Open Post: Pippa Middleton's Wedding!


Hello and welcome! I've received a number of requests from readers interested in a pre-wedding post. Due to the plethora of news articles, sightings and last-minute information rapidly available, I thought it a good idea to start an 'Open Post' which will allow for additions as they become available, similar to Live Blogs we've written in the past. We'll be chatting about various aspects of the wedding, from the dress to talking points and opinion pieces surrounding the event.  Please feel free to share any links you wish and to chat in the comments section. This post will be 'Open' from now until Saturday, including the morning of the wedding, where we will share images once they become available. You will find the most recent entries at the top of the post.

The Guest List

The Telegraph takes a look at the guest list set to include society friends Camilla Campion-Awaad, Old Etionian George Percy and Sam and Annabel Waley-Cohen.

Stephen Glover Opinion Piece: Yes, they're in love but this oh-so lavish wedding won't endear Pippa to the public - or help the Royals

A much discussed topic on the blog of late has been how much coverage there has been surrounding the wedding with many feeling it has very much gone from a private event to a very public wedding. Stephen Glover writes:

'This has become a public wedding. All the more regrettable, then, that many people will see the well-publicised antics of the Matthews and Middleton clans and their guests as proof of Jeremy Corbyn’s contention that the rich occupy a different planet, and should be brought back to earth with a bump.
It is true, of course, that the Middletons have made their fortune out of planning parties, and they must have brought many of their skills to this wedding. No doubt they want to impress their guests, as parents are apt to do on these occasions. But is this flaunting of wealth wise or necessary?
Wouldn’t it have been more seemly to have an old-fashioned English country wedding with a straightforward marquee and perfectly adequate Portaloos? The Middletons have made money, and good for them. Few would complain if they displayed a proper degree of modesty. They are not, in fact, members of the super-rich, though James and his parents (who may well be sharing the stonking bill) probably are. Yet this would seem to be a grotesquely opulent and rather unEnglish affair.
The odd thing is that there is so much to admire about the Middleton and Matthews families. Both have worked hard and are self-made. Both are said to be close and tightly knit. On the assumption that they have all paid their taxes and that everything has been above board, I don’t see why any of us should begrudge them a single penny of their fortunes. They have, it seems to me, epitomised the best of middle-class values, which many people less fortunate than them would naturally admire. Why, then, must they risk the charge of behaving like vulgar Russian oligarchs — or at any rate give rise to the belief that they should be viewed in that light? Why the need to make a mark with such tacky displays of wealth?

Preparations Firmly Underway

Preparations are very much underway with a flurry of activity at St Mark's, Englefield. With less than 48 hours to go until the couple say their vows, workmen have been making last-minute improvements to the church and gardens. From meticulously mowing the lawns to adjusting signage, it's quite the operation.


A chair delivery company dropped off a huge order of chairs at the church. Deliveries from Starlight Design were seen arriving, too. The company website reads: "Specialising in set design, lighting, sound, AV, fireworks, power distribution and event production using the very latest technology with our own blend of creative input and experience to guarantee results that exceed our client's expectations."

A Giles Deacon Dress?

One of the major questions surrounding the wedding is the designer of Pippa's wedding dress? The Mail reports it's Giles Deacon. Rebecca English says: "She has chosen a couture dress made by Giles Deacon, who has designed clothes for Ann Summers and New Look. He is famed for his dramatic Gothic creations but Pippa's dress has been described to the Mail as 'classic with a progressive twist'. It is a relatively contemporary, progressive design but is completely in keeping with the occasion. Pippa will look absolutely beautiful." Below we see Pippa and James superimposed onto a wedding photo of Abbey Clancy (who wore a Giles Deacon dress) and footballer Peter Crouch.


If correct, Giles Deacon is an interesting choice. Deacon was employed by the fashion houses Bottega Veneta and Gucci, before founding his own label, GILES, in 2003. He launched his first collection for GILES at the 2004 London Fashion Week and was named "Best New Designer" at the British Fashion Awards. Below, a look at the his current collection.


The Mail also reports Pippa will be wearing custom Manolo Blahnik pumps. Below, a look at the brand's 'Hangisi' point toe pumps: "An ornate crystal embellishment sparkles at the toe of a quintessential stiletto pump done up in feminine floral mesh."


Frequently Asked Questions

What time is the wedding? We know the wedding will take place "on the morning of Saturday, 20 May". I suspect around 11 am would be a good guess.

Will we see photos? Yes we will. Kensington Palace organised a media facility with a small, select group of photographers. Presumably, these images will be distributed via the "ROTA" system, whereby photos are syndicated to various agencies. We don't know how many or how varied they will be, however, I expect there should be a good portion of arrival and departure photos. It's possible an official portrait or two will be released.

How many members of the Royal family are attending? The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge naturally; Prince George and Princess Charlotte will serve as page boy and bridesmaid. Prince Harry will also be in attendance with his girlfriend Meghan Markle, but it remains unknown for certain whether Meghan will be at the entire event or just the reception.

Will Kate have a formal role at the wedding? According to various reports, the Duchess will not have a formal role at the wedding, although I wouldn't rule out some part.
