Mr Harrold told Express.co.uk: “A lot of the traditions and laws of the past have changed, especially when it comes to royal etiquette such as marrying divorcees.
“We’ve got to understand it’s not a royal family from a hundred years ago, it is a very modern royal family and so we will be pleasantly surprised from what we see on the day."
While the couple is expected to bring some modern touches to their nuptials, Ms Markle and Prince Harry have also decided to pay tribute to Princess Diana by having all three of her siblings attending the ceremony in Windsor.
Kensington Palace confirmed Diana’s siblings Earl Spencer, Lady Sarah McCorquodale and Lady Jane will all be present.
The couple wanted to make sure the prince's late mother Diana, Princess of Wales, who was killed in a car crash in 1997, will be remembered on the day, the palace said.
