Beside her in tiie j coach will be her brother-in-1 law Prince Philip, who will give her away. Like most of the men guests, he will be ! wearing morning dress-gray striped trousers, an elegant gray waistcoat and black swal-1 low-tail coal. !

To Use Old Rites The archbishop of Canter bury, Dr. Geoffrey Fisher, primate of the Church of Eng land, will solemnize the mar riage. The Church of England marriage service from the 1622 version of the Book of Common Prayer will be used. In this ceremony the princess promises to "obey" her husband. O The bridegroom will leave i which many friends of Prin Buckinghani Palace quietly by I cess Margaret and Arnislrong a different route than Princess j Junes not attending the actual Margaret and enter W est. Tun-1 wedding breakfast will be in ster Abbry by a side door vited. from the Cloisters which leads into the south transept, gen erally known as the Poets' Corner.

The two men will wear the customary morning dress, just as Prince Philip will. They will both stand at the fool of the chancel steps inside the abbey waiting for the bride. Dr. Gillian's place in the' ceremony will be to hold the j ring until he hands it to the I archbishop, who then hands! it lo the bridegroom to place on the bride's finger. Already Princess Margaret and her fiance have -been to the abbey to discuss wedding arrangements with the elergy. There also will be several private rehearsals of the wed ding procession up the aisle before the actual day. Nothing must be left to chance on a brilliant royal occasion which will be broadcast, televised and filmed In color. Cetnerai Hidden Hidden cameras and com mentators will be placed in side the abbey but close-ups of most of the actual ceremony will not be permitted. The wedding ring has been specially made from an Ingot of Welsh gold, which comes from a rare ore. the only gold found in Britain.

Another ancient tradition will be followed with the sprig of myrtle which the queen mother will insert into her daughter's bridal bouquet before she leaves for the ab bey.

With the coach man cocking his whip high in the air. the coach and escort If Princess Margaret also follows the royal custom of wearing "something blue for luck," il will be a blue satin garter. The bride's mother has stressed the wedding is "a fam-j ily occasion" and for that rea son only about 300 of the I abbey guests will be invited to go on to Buckingham Palace afterwards for the wedding breakfast, which will be serv ed in the state dining room adjoining the great white and gold ballroom in the state apartments. Prince Philip will toast the health of the bride and bride groom in vintage champagne. The honeymoon is to be spent cruising in the royal yacht Britannia which Queen Elizabeth' has lent to her sis ter. At sea the couple will be able to enjoy complete pri vacy. If they go south they can enjov swimming in the open air pool on the top deck. There are speed boats for quiet waters, automobiles for ports- if the want the company of j friends. The itinerary is se cret. Reception Planned Two days before the wed ding, (jiteen Elizabeth will give a large evening reception at Buckingham Palace to Royal weddings are by tra dition the scenes of tremen dous gatherings of the clan. For Queen Elizabeth's wed ding to Prince Philip nine queens and six kings attended and innumerable princes and princesses from nearly all the royal houses of Europe, reign ing, deposed or in exile. This time, since Princess Margaret is not heir to the throne and also is not marry ing a royal prince, the number of royal relations from abroad is expected to be heavily re duced. But whom to ask and whom to ignore must have caused lite bride's mother a good deal of headache.
