Senior members of the royal family attended with Peter's sister Zara one of five bridesmaids.

The newlyweds faced criticism after selling their wedding photos to Hello magazine in a deal reportedly worth £500,000.

Buckingham Palace later called the 59-page spread, which featured candid photos of guests including Kate Middleton and Prince Harry, "a serious error of judgment".
