LONDON: There will be military fanfare and red velvet cake when Princess Eugenie weds this week Britain`s second royal wedding of the year. The 28-year-old granddaughter of Queen Elizabeth 11 is due to marry liquor company executive Jack Brooksbank on Friday in St George`s Chapel at Windsor Castle.

Prince Harry, her cousin, and American actress Meghan Markle married at the same venue in May. Buckingham Palace said on Sunday that Eugenie`s service will feature a trumpet fanfare and Scottish pipers, a performance by Italian singer Andrea Bocelli and a prayer written by Archbishop of York John Sentamu.

London baker Sophie Cabot is making the red velvet-and-chocolate wedding cake, billed as `a traditional cake with a modern feel`.
