Royal wedding guest list: Who will Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank invite?The second royal wedding of the year will take place on October 12, with preparations for Princess Eugenie of York and Jack Brookbank's nuptials no doubt well underway.  With less than a month to go, the flowers will most likely have been chosen, cakes tasted and selected and the invitations sent out. But who will have received one? Here is everything we know so far about the guest list, from royal family members to celebrity friends. Princess Eugenie's royal wedding | Read more Family members Earlier this year, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex exchanged vows in front of more than 30 members of the Royal family, which give us an idea of what to expect for the upcoming royal nuptials. The princess' grandparents, the Queen and Prince Philip, are sure to attend – as are her uncle and aunt, Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall. Naturally the Duke and Duchess of York, Princess Eugenie's parents, will also play a large role in the proceedings. Princess Eugenie announced in an interview with British Vogue earlier this year that her older sister Princess Beatrice will play a central role, as Maid of Honour. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are expected to attend the wedding – in a much more relaxed capacity than their previous trip to Windsor, no doubt – before their 20-day trip abroad. On their itinerary is Sydney for the Invictus Games, Fiji and New Zealand.

Prince George and Princess Charlotte already know the score – as well as performing those roles at the wedding of Prince Harry and Ms Markle earlier this year, they also did so at the wedding of Pippa Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge's younger sister, to James Matthews in May last year. Prince Louis, who was less than a month old by the time of Prince Harry's wedding and was not present, is likely to be cared for by a nanny close by. Maud Windsor, the daughter of Lord Freddie Windsor and his actress wife Sophie Winkleman, is also rumoured to be a flower girl at the wedding. The four year-old is in the same class as Prince George, the eldest child of Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, at St Thomas’ School in Battersea.

It is not yet confirmed whether any members of other royal families from around the world will attend the ceremony. Mr Brooksbank is the son of George Brooksbank, a 68 year-old chartered accountant and company director, and his wife Nicola, 64, both of whom are expected to play a central role in the wedding. The groom's younger brother Thomas, 29, could be chosen as best man. Newsletter Promotion – Royal Appointment – in article Newsletter Promotion – Royal Appointment – in article Celebrity friends There are rumours George Clooney and his wife Amal will be in Windsor once again this October as the A-list actor has a connection to the groom. Wine merchant Mr Brooksbank is a brand ambassador for Casamigos Tequila, a company owned by George Clooney. Rande Gerber, the husband of Cindy Crawford, is also a founder of Casamigos, which means the couple may have received an invitation too.  Princess Eugenie is close friends with model Cara Delevingne, singer Ellie Goulding, and the Duke of Sussex's former girlfriends Chelsy Davy and Cressida Bonas, all of whom are expected to attend. Karlie Kloss accompanied Ellie Goulding and the princess on a trip to Jordan earlier this year, leading some to wonder if she will make an appearance in Windsor in October. The daughter of Robbie Williams, five-year-old Theodora Rose, will reportedly be a flower girl at the wedding, which means we can expect to see the singer and his wife, Ayda Field, in the pews. The ex-Take That star and his wife have been friends with Eugenie and her sister, Princess Beatrice, for several years.  Louis de Givenchy and Ines de Givenchy, the children of the JP Morgan banker Olivier de Givenchy and his wife Zoe, are rumoured to be pageboy and flower girl respectively; their parents are friends with Mr Williams and his wife. James Blunt, who attended the wedding of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex earlier this year, is expected to be at Princess Eugenie's wedding. His wife Sofia Wellesley is the daughter of Lord and Lady John Henry Wellesley and he is a regular at Royal occasions. Eddie Redmayne and his wife Hannah Bagshawe became friendly with Princess Eugenie while lived in New York, working for the fine art auction house Paddle8. Plus, Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher have been seen dining and on holiday with Princess Beatrice over the years; if they want to attend a royal wedding they may have asked their friend to convince her sister to send an invitation their way. The most stylish guests from Prince Harry's wedding to Meghan Markle Members of the public The couple are inviting 1,200 members of the public into the grounds of Windsor Castle for their October wedding, following in the footsteps of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. Announcing details of the wedding, a spokesman for Buckingham Palace said the couple would be inviting members of the public to share their day. “The couple are delighted to announce an opportunity for 1,200 people from across the United Kingdom to be invited into the grounds of Windsor Castle to share the experience of their special day,” a spokesman said. “The attendees will view the arrival of the congregation and members of the Royal Family, listen to a live broadcast of the marriage service and watch as the bride and groom depart St George's Chapel at the end of the ceremony.” Following the ceremony, the newlyweds will undertake a carriage ride through the town of Windsor, where members of the public will be able to get a glimpse of the couple.
