I always thought it was common knowledge in the higher circles that when you attend a church wedding, and have to wear a hat, the hat mustn't be too big and obstructive as it's bad mannered towards those guests sitting behind you because they won't be able to see anything...apart from a big hat!

As previously mentioned, it's a separation of church and state thing. In the Netherlands (as well as a few other countries) a marriage is only valid if it's performed by the government, so everybody has to have a civil ceremony. Afterwards, they have the option to have a church ceremony as well, if they want. This isn't just for royals, but for everybody living in those countries.
