Luxembourg is looking forward to a royal wedding next month after Prince Louis has announced his plans to marry. The Prince and his fiancée Tessy Anthony, who welcomed their first child earlier this year, have confirmed they will walk down the aisle on September 29.

A few eyebrows were raised when the 20-year-old royal and his girlfriend became parents back in March, but the pair seem to have taken to family life with aplomb. And their baby boy Gabriel has been receiving plenty of love and attention from his doting grandparents Grand Duke Henri and his wife Maria Teresa.

The couple, who first met while serving in the Luxembourg army in Kosovo, are to make their vows in the town of Gilsdorf where their baby boy was baptised four months ago. Louis, who is currently third in line, has announced that when he says "I do" he will give up his claim to the throne.
