Nicky Hilton’s wedding venue is fit for a princess! The younger Hilton sister is set to marry banking heir James Rothschild at London’s Kensington Palace—the home of Prince William and Kate Middleton—on July 10.
Nicky “will walk down the aisle at the palace’s Orangery in front of hundreds of guests,” according to Page Six. “Located within Kensington Gardens, the Orangery, which is licensed for civil weddings and allows for receptions on its terrace, is next door to the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s palace home. The venue was built in 1704 as a space for Queen Anne to winter her orange trees.” The bride will reportedly wear custom a Valentino wedding dress.
Here’s a map, if you’re curious:
It’s right there, guys! (The Orangery is right about in the middle, with the State Apartments just to the right.)
I should probably mention that William, Kate, and their prince and princess aren’t currently in residence at Kensington Palace. Following Charlotte’s birth, the family headed to Anmer Hall, their 10-bedroom home located on Queen Elizabeth II's estate in Norfolk, England. So there probably won’t be any royal sightings by Hilton wedding guests—unless the family heads back to London for the baby’s baptism, which should happen before Queen Elizabeth heads to Scotland for her annual summer break in late July. (Prince George was baptized at the Chapel Royal at St. James's Palace in London in 2013.)
