Well, that didn't take long. On Tuesday morning Kensington Palace officially confirmed Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's wedding will take place at St. George's Chapel, Windsor Castle in May 2018. This means the couple won't be getting married at the same place as Prince William and Kate Middleton, who tied the knot at Westminster Abbey in April 2011.
