Princess Charlotte's christening: All the best photos

On July 5, 2015, Prince William and Kate Middleton looked picture perfect with their children Prince George, nearly two, and Princess Charlotte as they arrived for the two-month-old Princess' royal christening. Marking the first time that they appeared in public as a family of four, the royals were all smiles as they waved to well-wishers who had been waiting outside St Mary Magdalene Church in Sandringham, where the ceremony, conducted by the Archbishop of Canterbury, took place.Also attending the service were the Queen and Prince Philip and the Middleton family, as well as Princess Charlotte's five godparents: Sophie Carter, James Meade, Adam Middleton, Laura Fellowes and Thomas van Straubenzee. Scroll through to see all the beautiful highlights of the special day. Duchess Kate was radiant as ever in a cream Alexander McQueen dress coat and Jane Taylor hat as she pushed her daughter in a vintage Millson pram that was used by Queen Elizabeth for her sons Prince Andrew and Prince Edward in the 1950s.Photo: Getty Images

Princess Charlotte also looked adorable, dressed in the same beautiful lace gown that her older brother Prince George had worn for his christening. Photo: Getty Images

Princess Charlotte's gown was created by the Queen's personal dresser Angela Kelly – it is a replica of the one used by Queen Victoria's children, after the original one became too fragile for use.Photo: Getty Images

Great-grandmother Queen Elizabeth, joined of course by the Duke of Edinburgh, looked elegant in a pink Angela Kelly outfit. The royal couple had received a wave of excited cheers from the crowd as they made their way to the church.Photo: Getty Images

Style watchers took note of Pippa Middleton, whose cream-coloured look, with beret-style hat and upswept chignon, was very much like the ensemble her sister Kate had worn on the day.Photo: Getty Images

Harry had to miss the ceremony as it coincided with his scheduled visit to Africa, where he stayed for three months to pursue animal conservation work.Photo: Getty Images
