Mr. and Mrs. Michael Middleton, Mr. James Middleton and Miss Pippa Middleton

Prince George will wear the hand made replica of the Royal Christening Robe, made by Angela Kelly, Dressmaker to The Queen.

HRH Prince George will be baptised by the Archbishop of Canterbury in the Lily Font with water from the River Jordan.

Following the service, The Prince of Wales and The Duchess of Cornwall will host a private tea in Clarence House. Guests will be served christening cake, which is a tier taken from The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s wedding cake.
