The couple are expected to set up a wedding fund for guests to donate money to charity instead of bringing lavish gifts. According to the Mail Online, a source has explained that Harry "doesn't want guests spending lots of time buying him extravagant presents, but he does want them to support his charity work". Last month, it was reported that Meghan will break royal tradition by giving a speech at their wedding. The Sunday Times reported that the former actress will deliver an "affectionate" toast to thank her new husband, the Queen and her friends and family. Meghan may even dare to make a couple of jokes, the report added.
