Whom did Prince William marry in his 2011 royal wedding at Westminster Abbey?

Prince William married Catherine Middleton at Westminster Abbey in 2011.

The wedding took place on April 29, 2011, in London. Catherine, widely known at the time as Kate Middleton, had met William while they were students at the University of St Andrews in Scotland. Their engagement was announced in November 2010 after the couple had dated for several years.

The ceremony was conducted by Rowan Williams, then Archbishop of Canterbury, while the Bishop of London, Richard Chartres, preached the sermon. Prince Harry served as William's best man, and Catherine's sister Pippa Middleton was maid of honour. After the service, the newlyweds travelled by carriage to Buckingham Palace and appeared on the balcony.

The couple later received the titles Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. A frequent mix-up is identifying another royal bride, such as Meghan Markle, who married William's brother Prince Harry in 2018. Catherine is also commonly called Kate, but “Catherine Middleton” is the canonical name in this question.
