Among the invited guests are the three Cardinals of the U.K.—Murphy-O’Connor, O’Brien and Brady, plus the Pope’s ambassador Archbishop Mennini.
The Catholic Bishops of England and Wales have issued a special prayer for this time:
‘We ask your blessing upon His Royal Highness Prince William and Catherine as they pledge their love for each other in marriage.
May your love unit them through their lives.
Grant them the strength to serve you, our country and the Commonwealth’.
