Registrar assigned for Charles and Camilla wedding
24/3/2005 10:24

Clarence House announced on Wednesday that Superintendent Registrar of the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead, Clair Williams, would lead the ceremony on April 8.

"It has come as something of a shock both to me and my team, but thankfully a very pleasant and nice one."

Prince Charles' three siblings, Prince Andrew, Edward, Edward's wife Sophie and Princess Anne as well as his son Prince William will be amongst those attending the ceremony at Windsor town hall.

It is unprecedented for an heir to the throne to marry outside of a church, but the Church of England, of which Charles will be head if he becomes king - has qualms about remarriage for divorcees.

Queen Elizabeth II raised eyebrows when she announced last month that she would not attend the wedding. The queen will attend a blessing ceremony at Windsor Castle after the civil ceremony.
