Chapel from the St. James Palace in London baptized. However, there was not a big party. Instead, the Royals confined themselves to a small circle of family members and friends. For example, pregnant Pippa Matthews (34), Duchess Kate's sister, and her husband, and James Middleton (31), the two brothers, attended the ceremony. In addition, Michael (69) and Carole Middleton (63), the parents of Triple Mum, were on hand

while the Royals teamed up with the brothers Charlotte (3) and Prince George (4) as well as his grandfather. Prince Charles (69) with the Duchess Camilla (70) and his uncle Prince Harry (33) with the Duchess Meghan (36), missed two important personalities. Queen Elizabeth II (92) and Prince Philip (97) did not participate in the celebrations. However, it is not health that was blamed by the palace

Prince Louis passed the baptismal ceremony

Assistants of the Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby (62), personally received the 45-minute service taken. Baptism itself, however, has not received it. He was deeply asleep in the arms of Mom Kate.

"I hope it stays that way," she said with a smile to the priest before heading to the chapel. On the official Twitter page of Kensington Palace, the arrival of the royal family was recorded with a short video clip .

The six godparents of Little Prince Louis also entered the chapel Monday afternoon. It was the palace before the ceremony: the English owner Nicholas van Cutsem, the close friend of Prince Williams, Guy Pelly, Harry Aubrey-Fletcher and Robert Carter, also good friends of the couple, and the good friend of the Duchess Kate Laura Meade and her cousin Lucy Middleton

Charles and Camilla invite tea and cake

After the christening ceremony, Prince Charles and Duchess Camilla invite them to Clarence House, the couple's official residence. As stated, among other things, "Time", there was a very special treat at the obligatory tea: eight-storey wedding cake cake of Prince William and Duchess Kate. The remains of the seven year old cake today were frozen after the event in 2011 and are now – according to British tradition – served again and again to children 's baptisms.

The beautiful moments of the day were captured by British photographer Matt Holyoak. The royal family also hired him last year to shoot the official photos on the occasion of the 70th wedding anniversary of the Queen and her consort prince.
