Sadly, nothing is yet known of the wedding rings the couple will marry with.

5. The dress

Nothing is certain yet but the list of possible designers for the dress has been narrowed down to a few names which include David Beckham’s wife, Victoria as well as Jenny Peckham.

However the most likely designer to get the job seems to be Giles Deacon who was spotted meeting Pippa and her mother in 2016.

"I can never really comment on rumors," he told HELLO! in February. "Until things are confirmed it's just rumors."
