Peter Phillips has married Harriet Sperling.
The 48-year-old businessman - who is the son of Princess Anne and her first husband Captain Mark Phillips - exchanged vows with the NHS nurse at All Saints' Church in Kemble, Gloucester, on Saturday (06.06.26) in front of guests including the groom's uncles, King Charles and Prince Edward and their wives Queen Camilla and Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh, cousins Prince William, Princess Beatrice, and Princess Eugenie, and their respective spouses Catherine, Princess of Wales, Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, and Jack Brooksbank.
Peter and first wife Autumn Kelly's two daughters, Savannah, 15, and 14-year-old Isla were bridesmaids alongside Harriet's daughter Georgina, 13, whose father is the bride's ex-husband Antonio St John Sperling.
After leaving the church, Peter sheltered his new wife with a large white umbrella and the couple shared a kiss as they got into a waiting car to be taken to Gatcombe Park, the home of Anne, for their reception.
Harriet wore an Emilia Wickstead dress teamed with Jimmy Choo shoes, Pragnell earrings, and the Pragnell family tiara, which had previously been present at the coronations of both King George VI and Peter's grandmother, Quen Elizabeth II.
The bridesmaids wore matching cream shoes and dresses also by Emilia Wickstead and held the bride's train as they headed into the church, with Harriet accompanied down the aisle by her brother Nicholas Sanders in lieu of their late father, Rupert Sanders, who passed away in 2023.
Peter wore a pale blue waistcoat and matching buttonhole flower, and was accompanied by his best man Andrew Tucker, a childhood friend.
Other guests included the groom's sister, Zara Tindall, and her husband Mike, and his half-sister Stephanie Hosier and her husband William, as well as the bride's mother Mary Sanders and sisters Rebecca Elder and Louisa Speakman.
Millie Richardson designed the wedding flowers and floral archways to the church and wedding reception, using locally sourced, English-grown flowers, which were sustainably minded and eco-conscious. All of the church arrangements are to be shared among the local community as a gesture of thanks for the support the couple received in planning their big day.
Peter and Harriet met at a hockey match their daughters were playing in and made their public debut as a couple during the Badminton Horse Trials in May 2024. They announced their engagement in August last year.
