And on Monday, Kensington Palace released an all-important teaser of a factoid about the upcoming ceremony, one that’s sure to please a legion of royals fans: [Prince George and Princess Charlotte](http://time.com/4618109/prince-george-princess-charlotte-christmas-candy/ "undefined") are set to star in the bridal party as a page boy and bridesmaid at the event, [as PEOPLE confirmed](http://people.com/royals/prince-george-and-princess-charlotte-will-be-in-aunt-pippa-middletons-wedding-find-out-their-roles/ "undefined"). (Notably, Charlotte’s being given a very grown-up role; no flower girl petal-tossing for this young princess, although she might still not be the ideal assistant to help her aunt with her dress train. She will only have just turned two years old, after all.) The younger Middleton sister rocketed to international [fame](http://content.time.com/time/photogallery/0,29307,2068434%5F2270428,00.html "undefined") after making [her own splash](http://motto.time.com/4352305/pippa-middleton-bridesmaid-dress/ "undefined") at Kate’s globally-televised [ceremony in 2011](http://content.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,2069053,00.html "undefined") as the maid of honor. It remains unclear what official role Kate will play in her sister’s impending nuptials to financier fiancé James Matthews, and how Prince William may or may not participate, but [they’ll both be there](http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-39559666 "undefined"), of course. One thing, however, is certain: the wildly photogenic George and Charlotte will be stealing the show. Sorry, Pippa, but that’s just what happens when you add two of the world’s most famous children to your bridal squad. We [already know they love a good party. ](http://time.com/4513546/prince-george-princess-charlotte-balloons-bubbles/ "undefined") ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4733694/prince-george-princess-charlotte-pippa-wedding/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4733694/prince-george-princess-charlotte-pippa-wedding/"},"headline":"Prince George and Princess Charlotte Will Play Extremely Important Roles in Aunt Pippa's Wedding","datePublished":"2017-04-10T20:57:27.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:42:41.612Z","description":"This bridal party is stacked with royalty.","url":"https://time.com/4733694/prince-george-princess-charlotte-pippa-wedding/","keywords":["Newsfeed","royals"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt224b7295caab2c49/6988c22686f68e020c6e42e6/george-charlotte-family.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Raisa Bruner","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/raisa-bruner/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt224b7295caab2c49/6988c22686f68e020c6e42e6/george-charlotte-family.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"2016 Royal Tour To Canada Of The Duke And Duchess Of Cambridge - Victoria, British Columbia","caption":"2016 Royal Tour To Canada Of The Duke And Duchess Of Cambridge - Victoria, British Columbia","creditText":"Samir Hussein—Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4733694/prince-george-princess-charlotte-pippa-wedding/","name":"Prince George and Princess Charlotte Will Play Extremely Important Roles in Aunt Pippa's Wedding"}}]},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"Prince George and Princess Charlotte Have Way More Fun with Balloons and Bubbles Than You Ever Will","description":"They're the poster children for bubbles","thumbnailUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/v2/media/tFML9BnI/poster.jpg?width=720","uploadDate":"2016-09-29T20:54:43.000Z","contentUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/manifests/tFML9BnI.m3u8","embedUrl":"https://time.com/4733694/prince-george-princess-charlotte-pippa-wedding/","duration":"PT1M14S","potentialAction":{"@type":"SeekToAction","target":"https://time.com/4733694/prince-george-princess-charlotte-pippa-wedding/?jw_start={seek_to_second_number}","startOffset-input":"required name=seek_to_second_number"}}] ```
