The British government has stated the wedding day is not planned to be a bank holiday, as was done for the wedding of Prince William and Catherine Middleton.[31] Kensington Palace subsequently announced that the wedding is to be held on Saturday 19 May 2018, the same date as the FA Cup Final, which Prince Harry's brother William normally attends in his role as President of the Football Association.[32] Holding the royal wedding on a weekend is a break with the royal tradition of having weddings on a weekday.[33] On 12 February 2018, Kensington Palace announced that the ceremony will occur at 12:00 PM BST. Following the ceremony, there will be a carriage procession through Windsor after the ceremony as well as two receptions. The first reception, for those attending the ceremony, will be hosted by the Queen and will take place in St. George's Hall after the carriage procession.
