The Queen adores her granddaughters, whatever wedding Beatrice would want, The Queen will make sure she gets.

The adoration of the Queen most likely will not be different for Zara Phillips or Louise of Wessex. The grandmotherly adoration does not automatically mean that now London will come to a standstill because of a grand royal wedding. My guess is: when she goes for big, it will be St George's in Windsor. Also because she lives on Royal Lodge, in the very same Windsor estate.
I don't even know that Harry would get a big wedding. The Yorks definitely aren't getting one.
It's going to be like Peter or Zara's.

I think Beatrice would have a wedding more in line with Zara's and Peters. Private but not really private if you know what I mean. It won't be televised but we will get plenty of pictures. I wonder if she would follow Peter's lead and get money from Hello for the pictures? Sarah did that when they were babies it's a way to help pay for a very expensive wedding.

"Beatrice loves her glamorous dresses and her hair being curly or big -- like Mummy's -- and I *despise* volume. I like my hair to be sort of flat," Eugenie tells The Telegraph. "I like just throwing on a pair of jeans and generally being more understated. She is more 'Let's do the glamour.' We're chalk and cheese."
^ Right on point. Beatrice is the one more likely to go for something snazzy, best quote about their personalities comes from Eugenie in 2008.
I think Andrew would fight for and urge weddings he considers 'appropriate' for his princesses. Both from the POV of a doting father and someone who wants to give his girls Royal trappings and present them as a Queens Grand daughters... He glories in being a prince and being who he is
What if no york wedding is going to happen at all?
I think if the couple is paying for it then yes they get to call all the shots. If mom/dad are paying for it then there should be some compromise if needed. Most parents want their kids to have the wedding they want to have...still sometimes it is good to have a stabilizing influence or another voice about some things.

It will be up to Bea and Eug to not let these two take control and let them know who makes the final decisions.
I would worry more about Harry then them; they have had a longtime boyfriends, while Harry is still searching and cannot find the one.
It's highly possible that Beatrice (95% sure) and maybe even Eugenie would go to the altar before their cousin.
[...] Does not matter what her status is or what the public thinks. [...]
Regarding the Yorks' cousin Prince Henry: we have seen with the Prince of Monaco (then aged 47) and the current King of the Belgians (then aged 40) that marrying at an advanced age is not at all a problem... And then we are not at all talking about a Heir, in the case of Prince Henry.
King Constantin & Queen Anne-Marie of Greece got married when he was 24 and she 18 and they are still together and happy.Their uncle Edward also showed that waiting and marrying late actually works out better. I believe Edward was 35 when he married - Harry is only 30/31 so he can wait a few more years!
If the Queen and/or Philip are alive she may have a small church service in the U.K. followed by a grand wedding on the continent.
Do you think there's a real possibility she would do this? This is a serious question. I can't imagine why she would have two weddings. I know in some countries people have a civil wedding and a church wedding because the church wedding isn't able to be a legal wedding, but why would an Anglican have a second wedding after a church wedding in England? Is it a real possibility? Do people actually do this? I can envisage her having a whopping big party on the continent, sure, but a big second wedding with a wedding dress and vows and stuff? Why would anyone do that?
