In the midst of all the excitement following Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's wedding, Princess Eugenie and her fiancé Jack Brooksbank have been planning their own royal nuptials.
The pair will tie the knot on October 12, 2018 in St. George's Chapel at Windsor Castle, the same venue where Meghan and Harry held their dreamy marriage ceremony earlier this year.
The marriage of Her Royal Highness Princess Eugenie to Mr Jack Brooksbank will take place on 12th October 2018.

As previously announced, the wedding will take place at St. George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle.
The celebration will be paid for at least partly by the royal family. According to Business Insider, the rest of the event's expenses will be split between the Brooksbank family, and Eugenie's parents, Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, Duchess of York.
The Engagement
Princess Eugenie and her now fiancé Jack, had been dating for nearly seven years before announcing their engagement. People reports that the two were introduced by friends in Verbier, a Swiss ski resort that many of the royals like to visit, when Eugenie was still studying at Newcastle University.
In early January, Brooksbank popped the question while the two were on a vacation in Nicaragua. The couple later shared their happy news with the public on January 22, through a post on Twitter.

Their Appearances
Eugenie has been keeping busy over the past few months, attending numerous events with her sister while also planning her wedding. The young royal was seen on two of the five days of Royal Ascot and made an appearance at Trooping the Colour, the Queen's annual birthday parade, as well.
Princess Eugenie also attended Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's wedding in May, with Brooksbank by her side. This was most likely the last time the couple will attend a wedding together before they say their vows themselves.
