AS Prince Harry and Meghan Markle prepare to get married today children in Runcorn have already held their own royal wedding.

Pupils at Astmoor Primary School in Castlefields stepped into the shoes of the royal family for a big celebration.

Grace Young from the reception class played the role of bride Meghan and posed for pictures with groom Alec Jones from the nursery as Prince Harry.

Children dressed up in their finery with matching hats and bags as members of the royal family and re-enacted the entire wedding ceremony.

The royal couple arrived separately - in colourful trikes.

Parents were invited to watch the special event organised for children in  the foundation stage.
