There were tears, laughter and a fabulous gospel choir as Prince Harry and Meghan Markle tied the knot in a beautiful and poignant ceremony.
-
In their engagement interview, Prince Harry said he really missed having his mother around to share in his happiness. But Meghan Markle reassured her fiancé, “she’s with us”. And so it was that the first thing to greet Prince Harry as he walked up the West Steps to enter St George’s Chapel was a beautiful white floral tribute arch to his mother Diana, Princess of Wales. The floral theme of lush green foliage and white peonies (Meghan’s favourite flower), coupled with white garden roses (Diana’s favourite) and a medley of additional white blooms all gathered from Savill Garden in nearby Windsor Great Park by florist Philippa Craddock was continued inside the chapel.
Prince Harry and Prince William arrived first, Harry looking nervous and incredibly dashing; William, calm and smiling, supporting his younger brother as he has since Harry was born – and christened in this very chapel.

Money matters with Effie
The festive season is fast approaching, and while it's a wonderful time of the year, it can also be very expensive. Between gifts, travel and those “must-do” sales, it’s easy for “ho-ho-ho” to turn into “Oh-no-no-no!”. But instead of starting the New Year deep in hock, let’s make Christmas 2025 a little different. Because with some planning, you can enjoy the celebrations without budget worries.
