英哈里王子將給哥哥當伴郎 新娘妹妹當伴娘

Britain's Prince Harry is to be Best Man at the wedding of his elder brother William to Kate Middleton, the princes' office confirmed on Monday。

Middleton has also, as expected, chosen her sister Pippa to be her Maid of Honor when the couple tie the knot at London's Westminster Abbey on April 29.

Other bridesmaids and page boys are made up of young children from friends and members of the royal family, including Louise Windsor, the daughter of William's uncle Prince Edward。

Margarita Armstrong-Jones, daughter of Viscount Linley, who is son of Queen Elizabeth's late sister Margaret, Grace van Cutsem, William's goddaughter, and Eliza Lopes are the three other bridesmaids。

William Lowther-Pinkerton, son of William's private secretary, and Tom Pettifer, son of the prince's former nanny and his godson, will be the two page boys。

Details of all the outfits they will wear will not be given out until the wedding day, Clarence House said。

It also announced the couple will undertake two official engagements later this month, a naming ceremony for a lifeboat, and a reception to mark the start of the 600th anniversary of St Andrews University in Scotland where they met as students。英國王儲辦公室本週一表示，哈里王子將擔任兄長威廉王子與準王妃凱特•米德爾頓婚禮的伴郎。

米德爾頓則邀請她的妹妹皮帕擔任伴娘，這在預料之中。威廉和凱特將於4月29日在倫敦威斯敏斯特教堂舉行婚禮。

其他幾位小男女儐相均從友人及皇室成員的孩子裏選出，包括威廉王子的叔叔愛德華王子的女兒路易絲·溫莎郡主。

另外三位小女儐相分別是林利子爵的女兒瑪格麗塔•阿姆斯特朗-瓊斯、威廉王子的教女格蕾絲·範·卡特森、以及伊萊扎•葛培茲。林利子爵的母親是伊麗莎白女王已故的妹妹瑪格麗特。

威廉王子私人祕書的兒子威廉•勞瑟-品克頓、以及威廉的教子，也是前保姆的兒子湯姆•佩蒂弗將擔任小男儐相。

克拉倫斯王府表示，在大婚之前，所有人員的服飾將保密。

另悉，威廉和凱特還將在本月下旬出席兩場官方活動，分別是爲一艘救生艇命名的儀式，以及蘇格蘭聖安德魯斯大學建校600週年紀念開啓的招待會，兩人正是在這所大學讀書時相識。
