After the wedding ceremony at the cathedral, the royal couple, Geoffrey and Serena, rode their white landau to the palace where the celebratory luncheon was to be held.
What happened after was another series of scheduled events where not a moment of privacy was given to the couple. At 1:45, they were escorted to the palace's throne room followed by their respective immediate family and the wedding party to pose for official wedding portraits. While this was happening, the wedding guests were being ushered to the palace ballroom.
At 2:30, the wedding luncheon began. In comparison to the 2000 attendees in the cathedral, only 600 wedding guests were actually allowed inside the palace. These included the immediate and extended family of both sides, close friends, royals, and higher nobility.
