Pippa Middleton’s wedding bash has an unexpected theme

Katie Mythen-Lynch

She spent her college days studying English Literature in Edinburgh and it seems Pippa Middleton’s guests will be treated to a treat from her past at today’s wedding celebrations.

Pippa and her husband-to-be James Matthews have reportedly chosen a Scottish theme for their reception, complete with bagpipes, haggis canapés, local whiskey and a lamb main course on the dinner menu.

With the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge already en route to the church from Kensington Palace, travelling in the royal Range Rover, it’s likely catering staff are putting the final flourishes on a Scottish feast befitting of a king (or prince, as the case may be ).

Pippa, 32, is set to become Lady Glen Affric when her nobleman hubby eventually inherits a sprawling 10,000-acre Scottish estate, complete with castle.

As we await a sneaky photo of the bride and groom from St Mark’s Church in Berkshire, here’s Eight Reasons to Get Excited about the society wedding of the year.
