Members of the public with a "golden ticket" to the royal wedding have been told to provide their own picnic lunch.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have invited 2460 people "to feel part of the celebrations" by standing in the grounds of Windsor Castle on the big day.
However, some guests have expressed their dismay after receiving a letter from the Queen's lord lieutenants, suggesting that they "bring a picnic lunch as it will not be possible to buy food and drink on site".
Those invited inside the castle walls include charity workers and others nominated for their bravery or work in the local community.
Saeed Atcha, founder of a youth charity in Bolton, Greater Manchester, told the Guardian that some of the disadvantaged people he worked with were bemused at the lack of hospitality offered by the royal family.
