The selection by Prince William to command each least part of his marriage has brought about friction and complicated the plans, it has been claimed.
William has insisted his four-strong group of aides take responsibility - and has kept Buckingham Palace, which would usually take an essential capacity, 'mainly in the dark'.
Based at St James's Palace, William's advisers were already on the back foot after he sprang last Weeks pledge to marry declaration on them with only two hours' notification.
William's repudiation since then to welcome aid from leading members of the Queen's household has added to the broad feeling of disappointment
It also hasn't helped that William, an RAF search-and-rescue helicopter pilot, returned to work after last week's declaration.
Last night there was heightened contemplation that the date preferred by William and Kate is Thursday April 28, which would describe a divergence with tradition. Previous Majestic weddings have always been held on either a Wednesday or Saturday.
William's advisers declined to point out when the date was put to them.
