    Princess Anne's son, Peter Phillips, is set to marry his fiancée Harriet Sperling on June 6. As their royal wedding date fast approaches, the loved-up couple attended the Royal Family's annual Easter Matins church service at St. George's Chapel inside Windsor Castle. And for the first time ever, Sperling's daughter, 15-year-old Georgina, attended a royal engagement alongside her mom.

    For the occasion, Sperling followed in Princess Kate's footsteps by wearing a coordinated blouse and skirt set from royally-approved brand Beulah London. The polka-dot outfit was a striking shade of cornflower blue, and the NHS nurse accessorized the look with a matching hat—the Chelsea Beret in Blue by Jane Taylor. Taylor, of course, is a designer who has worked with the Princess of Wales on multiple occasions.

    For jewelry, Sperling opted for a pair of pearl and diamond earrings by Kiki McDonough—another brand beloved by Princess Kate. Phillips's fiancée also tapped a matching clutch and pumps from Kate-approved label Emmy London, both in the perfect shade of powder blue.

    Phillips was also joined by his two daughters, 15-year-old Savannah and 14-year-old Isla, whom he shares with ex-wife Autumn Kelly. Sperling's daughter, Georgina, was pictured walking alongside Savannah and Isla, as well as Princess Anne and the Princess Royal's husband, Sir Timothy Laurence.
