Prince William and Kate Middleton's newly born child Princess Charlotte will soon have a christening ceremony at the Church of St. Mary Magdalene in Sandringham, which will be attended by the Queen.
The private baptism ceremony, Archbishop of Canterbury the Most Reverend Justin Welby, will be the first time when Duke of Cambridge, Duchess Of Cambridge, Prince George and little Princess will be seen together, the BBC reported.
Charlotte will be christened in a replica of the lace and satin christening gown made for Queen Victoria's eldest daughter, Victoria, the princess royal, in 1841.
As per the reports, the event will be attended by almost all the Royal family members in Norfolk including Prince of Wales, Middletons, Duke of Edinburgh and Duchess of Cornwall, whereas Prince Harry will be missing from the ceremony as he is currently spending three months in Africa.
Princess Charlotte will be baptised using a font from Victoria's reign and with water from the River Jordan in presence of her great-grandmother and three future kings - Charles, William and George.
