Two royal couples – Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, as well as Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank – have chosen St George's Chapel, Windsor Castle as their royal wedding venue in 2018. The church, which is the final resting place of royals from Henry VIII to Queen Elizabeth's sister Princess Margaret, has a long royal lineage, and in the past few decades has been the site of not only royal weddings but also christenings, including that of Prince Harry, who will walk his bride down the same church's aisle this May. Scroll through to see photos of six joyous British royal family occasions, from Prince Charles's wedding to Prince William's confirmation, that have been held at St George's Chapel.
