Prince George’s Christening

Prince William and Duchess Catherine have gathered together close family and friends to christen their first born son Prince George.

The small ceremony of just 22 guests was held at the Chapel Royal at St James’s Palace in London on Wednesday.

The four-month-old Prince wore a replica of the lace gown made for Queen Victoria’s eldest daughter Victoria in 1841, which was worn at royal christenings until 2008.

William and Catherine selected close friends to be George’s god parents along with William’s cousin Zara Phillips, who was the only royal chosen.
