Will be interesting to see what happens!

Well there are loads of mistakes in that article for a start and second it's The Sun. That said I think it's possible, though a 2020 announcement makes more sense.
It's not surprising there's speculation since they're public and apparently living together, she's the only adult unmarried granddaughter of the Queen and her sister's wedding last year.
I would imagine that as both Westminster Abbey and St. George's Chapel are royal peculiars, should Beatrice wish to marry in either one, it would be up to the Queen to give her permission.
Somehow, I don't see the Queen saying "no" to either venue if that is what her granddaughter wants.
Personally, I think that Beatrice would choose St. George's like her sister did. Its the closest to being the "home parish church" of the bride.
If and when both Beatrice and Edo know that this relationship is one that will be for the long haul, they'll most likely move quickly. I'm in agreement that an announcement will be after the Queen returns from Balmoral. Beatrice may not be required to get the Queen's permission to marry but I do see her asking for it out of deep respect and love for her grandmother. Beatrice would also probably really like having both of her grandparents at her wedding.

Yes, that makes him a count though since UK doesn't recognise foreign titles of nobility it's not a title that he can use officially.Omg! I wish all love for Beatrice and Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi and Wolfie!
Edo's dad is British-born but has an Italian Aristocratic roots as 'Count?' Which makes him a Count too, right?
I actually prefer St. George's over Westminster Abbey if it was me picking out the venue. There's so much more of an intimate atmosphere.
York Minster is a huge (or at least in pics it looks massive) cathedral. It would be kinda neat to see Beatrice marry there ...when's the last time there was a royal wedding there? If ever?

Both are lovely, but I would prefer the Abbey.
But I think you may be right, and an Abbey wedding is now reserved for the direct line.
(Although other people who aren't even royal also marry in the Abbey. But I think, if Beatrice did, it would provoke more public criticism than if she marries at St. George's).
Princess Beatrice will most probably marry in St George's, but I'd be happy to see her marry in the York Minster. It's a beautiful cathedral and a fitting wedding setting for the daughter of the Duke of York.
Yes, but where would they hold the reception?
No place near, unless they took over a hotel or something like that.
Still, I agree that York Minster is glorious!

Not trying to get too caught up in the speculation, but wouldn’t it be nice to see a televised old fashioned palace wedding? Perhaps at Buckingham Palace or Windsor Castle wedding. Done in one of the big state rooms.
IIRC you can get married anywhere as long as the wedding venue is registered for worships and marriagesWouldn't they require a church wedding? The church for that would be St. George's. Has their ever been a wedding let alone a televised one in the State Rooms instead in recent memory?
Omg! I wish all love for Beatrice and Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi and Wolfie!
