Aside from being where every English and British monarch has been crowned since 1066, Westminster Abbey was also where the Queen and Prince Philip married in 1947. 

The service is set to honour Prince Philip’s work in support of the Queen and his role championing charities across the country and Commonwealth. 

Palace staff are considering travel arrangements for the Queen – who has been forced to pull out of recent public events due to mobility problems.

If you’re looking to watch the ceremony yourself, here is how you can do it:
