Westminster Abbey has long been first choice for royals to tie the knot. And so it will be when Prince William marries Kate on Friday.

Princess Patricia of Connaught was the first royal bride in 650 years who chose the abbey for her marriage to the Honorable Alexander Ramsay in 1919.

Many others have followed since, including Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip, Princess Margaret, Princess Anne and more recently Prince Andrew and Miss Sarah Ferguson.

Although William's parents, Prince Charles and Lady Diana Spencer, were married at St. Paul's Cathedral, the funeral service for Diana in 1997 took place at the Abbey following her fatal car crash in Paris.
