If you’re still not over Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s royal wedding, this new detail about their big day is going to turn you into a mess. On Friday, an exhibition called A Royal Wedding: The Duke and Duchess of Sussex was unveiled at Windsor Castle, where visitors can see Meghan and Harry’s wedding outfits up close and personal. In the accompanying audio recording, Harry and Meghan revealed details about their nuptials including the fact that the royal actually chose the song Meghan walked down the aisle to.
“[It] was actually Harry’s choice entirely and I think a really beautiful piece,” Meghan said. “I can retrace that entire walk down the aisle listening to it. It really is so special for us and I think it’s one of those things we’ll treasure forever.” The song in question was George Frideric Handel’s “Eternal Source of Light Divine” and it was performed by Welsh soprano Elin Manahan Thomas.
“I was looking for something completely different,” Harry added. “I ended up stumbling across this piece of music, something that epitomizes the whole day, the whole feeling that I have for her, and this incredibly impactful music with no organ whatsoever, with a soloist who actually did the most incredible job. Wherever we are, whatever we’re doing, we can close our eyes, listen to that music, and take ourselves straight back to that moment, it’s a beautiful thing for both of us.” Are you sobbing yet?
The exhibition, which was organized by The Royal Collection Trust, will run from Oct. 26 to Jan. 6, 2019, and will then move to the Palace of Holyroodhouse, Queen Elizabeth II’s Scotland residence, on June 14, 2019.
