Millions of viewers around the world will see Windsor in all its glory as Prince Harry and Meghan Markle tie the knot at St George's Chapel at Windsor Castle on 19 May. The town is expected to welcome more than 100,000 visitors on the big day, and will provide the perfect backdrop as the newlyweds take a carriage procession and greet the crowds following their wedding ceremony.

While Windsor has been subject to increased attention over the past few months in the lead-up to the royal wedding, it has long been a popular place to live thanks to its rich history, great amenities and prime location within an easy commute of London, Reading and Slough. There is lots to offer people of all ages, with beautiful parks, great shopping and a number of good schools, and its appeal is not lost on the Queen, who spends much of her time at Windsor Castle, in the heart of the town.
