Do you think Sarah will be seated next to Andrew and her Daughters if she has been invited to the wedding ceremony?
I am desperate to recreate the royal wedding cake, and have set it as a challenge to myself to work out what the recipe could be. It's supposedly a lemon elderflower cake from Violet Bakery in London, with "buttercream" and "decorated with fresh flowers" (according to the royals).
Does anyone have any theories on how the cake is made? Anyone know Claire Ptak's recipe's well? I need your help!!
So, when did she last give an interview about attending Ascot with her former husband and his family? When about spending time with the Queen in recent years?

TV2 has asked the Danish court, none from the DRF will attend the wedding.
Presumably they haven't been invited.
However, one royal expert has commented that QMII in any circumstances was unlikely to attend anyway. Partly because Harry is some way away from the throne, and partly because of possible BRF considerations of her recently having lost her husband.
As for other DRF members attending. That would have been a possibility, but again Harry is pretty far away from the throne and there is no history of him socializing with other members of the DRF. So there are no ties of personal friendship either.
This wedding is not treated like a 'big royal wedding with lots of continental royal guests'. Harry hardly moves in that circle, so no reason to invite them - as the decision was for the wedding to be low-key for royal standards. William & Catherine had to invite all of them as he is the heir to the heir.
If place in line to the throne was the deciding factor, nobody should have attended the wedding of prince Friso and Mabel Wisse Smit as at the time of the church wedding he had just lost his place in the line of succession. Nor should the wedding of prince Laurent (8th in line to the throne; 10th a few months later) and Claire Coombs have had so many royal guests.
I don't think you can really compare the relationship of the continentals with each other to theirs with the British. Since the BRF have practiced more of a formal interaction and isolated approach with the mainland since the World Wars, they aren't as close to the others. Especially since many of the continental royals are god parents/children to each other or are just in very close contact, attendance at these lower ranking royal members' weddings are really due to 'intimate' relationships and friendships IMO.
So, if Diana were still alive do you think that Eugenie would invite Harry's mother to her wedding? Perhaps so? Perhaps not? Perhaps Harry and Meghan are just being polite and sensitive to their cousin, practising their best manners.
I think there will be some European royals, interested to see though.
I'm not sure which royals make private visits and who is particularly close to BRF.
I'm just guessing that there could be some who have close friendships with the Queen..

A prayer for the marriage of Harry and Meghan on the Church of England website.
Orchestra leader at royal wedding says there will be music 'with an American slant'.
