Meghan Markle & Prince Harry: These details of the royal wedding you probably missed back then

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry: These sometimes amusing things happened at their wedding.

The magnificent and moving wedding of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry took place on May 19, 2018. A lot has happened in the lives of the royal couple since then – 2025 will mark the seventh anniversary of their wedding. We bet you missed some important details of this glorious day back then. Here, we'll catch up and present them to you.

#1 The license plate of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's car

During the reception on the evening of their wedding, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry drove to Frogmore House in a Jaguar car. The unique E-Type Zero model, with its electric engine, featured a tongue-in-cheek detail: the numbers on the license plate spell out their wedding date in English: "E190518."

#2 The Alexander McQueen dress that Kate Middleton wore (again)

It was like déjà vu, with the Princess of Wales playing the central role. To avoid attracting media attention and to leave the spotlight as entirely on the bride as possible, Kate Middleton appeared with her two children in the square of St. George's Chapel in an outfit that many immediately recognized. It was the fourth time she had worn this cream-colored coat by Alexander McQueen by Sarah Burton to an official occasion. After Princess Charlotte 's christening in 2015, Queen Elizabeth II's birthday in 2016, and a visit to Belgium in the same year, Kate Middleton once again shone in this minimalist, elegant outfit.

#3 The mysterious pizza delivery

While the evening that then-Prince Charles hosted for the approximately 200 guests at Frogmore House to mark the end of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's wedding day was all about spring and light fare, a mysterious order was placed at Windsor Castle shortly beforehand. Several dozen pizzas from the "Pizza Express" chain were delivered and brought into the building by two women. Whether they were ordered for guests or for the castle staff? That remains a mystery.

#4 David Beckham's outfit

David Beckham didn't make the same mistake he did at Prince William and Kate Middleton's wedding in April 2011. For Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's union, the British star wore a Dior Homme suit—the first creation designed by Kim Jones for the house—and left his medal of honor at home. In 2011, he delighted the tabloids by pinning the Order of the British Empire award on the wrong side of his jacket. A detail that garnered sardonic headlines in the British press.

#5 Serena Williams' playing strength at the party

While she admitted to wearing sneakers under her Valentino gown to the reception on Saturday evening, Serena Williams also demonstrated her proficiency in a game one wouldn't expect to see at a royal wedding. According to "The Sun," the tennis player impressed guests with her beer pong skills. This is a drinking and skill game in which ping-pong balls must be thrown into cups. The opponent must drink every cup hit by a player. "Serena Williams played beer pong like she plays tennis. Everyone thought it was great fun," one guest told the British media.
