Let’s face it, folks—grandma always knows best! Even Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s fairytale wedding, which took place over a year ago, still has people talking. It was one of those unforgettable days, and thanks to an incredible museum exhibit titled “A Royal Wedding: The Duke and Duchess of Sussex,” we’re discovering little-known details about the nuptials. Now, we’re diving into what went on behind the scenes of this historic event.
Exhibit Highlights from the Big Day
The exhibit is currently on display at the Palace of Holyroodhouse in Scotland, offering a glimpse into the magical day that took place on May 19, 2018. Among the treasures on display is Meghan’s stunning wedding gown. But that’s not all—there’s also a replica of Harry’s wedding attire. According to the audio guide available to guests, Harry had to seek approval from none other than his grandmother, Queen Elizabeth, to wear the outfit of his choice.
“I chose the frock coat as a uniform, with permission from my grandmother, because I think it’s one of the smartest Household Cavalry uniforms. It’s one of my favorites, and I was very fortunate to be able to wear that on the day,” the 34-year-old duke explains in the audio guide, as reported by InStyle. Now, that’s what I call a considerate grandson!

Harry and Meghan: Behind the Scenes
It’s not just Harry who’s been candid about their special day. Meghan, 37, also shares her thoughts in the audio guide. “A great level of detail went into the planning of our wedding day. We knew how large the scale of the event would be, so in making choices that were really personal and meaningful, it could make the whole experience feel intimate,” the former actress reveals. Clearly, they were committed to creating a day that was as much about their love as it was about tradition.
But here’s something the exhibit doesn’t reveal: Harry actually asked Idris Elba to DJ at his wedding. “So Harry and I, we’ve hung out a couple of times, through his dad [Prince Charles],” the 46-year-old star explained during his appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show on February 26. “His dad’s charity, the Prince’s Trust, helped me out as a young actor. So I do a lot of work with them, Harry and [Prince] William … And Harry came to a couple of parties that I deejayed.”
