The princess, the eldest daughter of Prince Andrew, Duke of York, was set to marry her fiancé Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi on May 29.
Princess Beatrice has canceled her wedding reception in Buckingham Palace amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.In a statement, Buckingham Palace said: “Princess Beatrice and Mr. Mapelli Mozzi are very much looking forward to getting married but are equally aware of the need to avoid undertaking any unnecessary risks in the current circumstances.
“Therefore, the planned reception in the Buckingham Palace Gardens will not take place. The couple will carefully consider government advice before deciding whether a private marriage might take place amongst a small group of family and friends.” Beatrice and her fiancé intended to use the marquees and portaloos in the palace gardens, which are erected each year for the garden parties, for the reception of their wedding.The couple had already been hit with problems in their wedding planning as Mozzi’s family is from the region in Northern Italy which was badly hit by the coronavirus outbreak.
The royals were planning a much smaller affair than their recent predecessors, getting married in the Chapel Royal, with about 150 guests.
