The Queen Is Reportedly Lending Eugenie a Wedding Carriage, Because That's What Grannies Are For

Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank's big day [1] is almost here! We already know that Princess Beatrice will serve as her sister's maid of honour [2] and that the royal's dress will be classic [3] with a twist, but what about the carriage ride [4]? According to Kensington Palace, Eugenie and Jack will "undertake a short carriage procession through part of Windsor High Street" and "the carriage will process through the grounds of Windsor Castle, departing via Castle Hill to proceed along part of the High Street before returning to the Castle via Cambridge Gate."

Vanity Fair reports that the couple will ride in an open-top State Landau carriage [5], similar to the one Prince Harry and Meghan used for their wedding [6]. The State Landau is mostly used by Queen Elizabeth II [7] during her state visits, but we're sure she has no problem letting her granddaughter borrow it for her wedding. Ahead, check out photos of Eugenie's previous carriage rides to get you ready for the big day!

In June 2015, Eugenie and Beatrice rode in a carriage together for the annual Trooping the Colour ceremony.

Eugenie travelled in an open carriage with her uncle, Prince Edward, and Sophie, Countess of Wessex during Trooping the Colour in 2014.

Eugenie and Beatrice were all smiles while travelling in a horse-drawn carriage during Trooping the Colour in 2017.

In April 2018, Eugenie and Sophie rode together in an open carriage to Trooping the Colour.
