Prince Andrew's daughter was one of the many brides affected by the coronavirus pandemic, and her wedding date was originally set for 29 May 2020, two months after the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic, but they shocked fans by throwing a last-minute socially-distanced ceremony in Windsor on 17 July 2020.

Beatrice also bucked the trend with a borrowed wedding outfit, a vintage dress by Norman Hartnell, on loan from her late grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II – and the bride also wore recycled heels for the big day!
