Think of the amount of prosecco on offer, like.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are getting married next month.

It seems like only yesterday that the couple announced their intention to wed, shot that very intimate engagement photoshoot, and revealed that they were planning on inviting a load of members of the public to their special day.

These people include those who have done a lot of charity work and lots of other good things for the nation of Britain over the years.

One of the first people – that we know of – to receive an invite to the royal wedding is Antrim student, Daniella Timperly.

And fair play to her too. We’re not jealous at all.

Daniella’s invitation was revealed by her school’s Twitter page who congratulated the 18-year-old last week.

They wrote:

“What a week it has been for Daniella!

“Not only was she named Top Youth Volunteer 2018, she has also received an invitation to the royal wedding of Prince Harry & Meghan Markle as a result of her extensive charity work!”

The invitation came just a few days after Daniella was awarded Ireland’s Top Youth Volunteer at a ceremony in the Aviva Stadium.

The wedding invitation reads:

“His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales, K.G., K.T. requests the pleasure of the company of…

“…At the Marriage of His Royal Highness Prince Henry of Wales to Ms. Meghan Markle at St George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle, Saturday 19th May 2018 at 12 Noon followed by a reception at Windsor Castle.”

Guests are invited to the wedding service at St George’s Chapel and then to a lunchtime reception at St George’s Hall.

Harry and Meghan are set to wed on May 19.
