It truly takes a village to pull off a celebration of this calibre. Operation Royal Wedding unveils the whirlwind of preparations made to bring this momentous occasion to life with exclusive, unprecedented access to some of the key players involved in the event.
Revealing the behind the scenes story of a nation pulling together to create a world class event and celebrating the unsung heroes who make it all happen, FOX+ and Nat Geo provides the rare access to some of the organisers who are helping bring everything together for the big day:
- Britain’s Pageantmaster Dominic Reid OBE: Event organiser extraordinaire, Dominic Reid is the ‘go-to’ man when it comes to staging the biggest and best ceremonial and Royal events in the UK, including the Queen’s Golden Jubilee and The Lord Mayor’s Show. Reid has a close working relationship with Prince Harry through his role as Chief Executive of the Invictus Foundation.
- Organiser of the Royal Windsor Horse Show Simon-Brooks Ward and Site Manager Colin Rayner: The highly experienced Brooks-Ward and Rayner coordinate the immense team that will have just 36 hours to transform Windsor Home Park from a horse show to a global event expected to attract more than 100,000 royal well wishers.
- Osborne House: Tradition dictates that a sprig of myrtle from the garden of Queen Victoria’s holiday home on the Isle of Wight is used in royal bridal bouquets. This dates back to the Victorian era. The flower itself symbolises love and unity.
- The Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby: As the head of the Church of England, the Archbishop will officiate the service at St. George’s Chapel, Windsor.
So, be sure to get your calendar and alarms set for these royal programmes.
I'm off to get my popcorns and couch comfy.
Have a great weekend my Huneybees!!
