Markle arrived in London for the event a few days ago, leading many to hope that she would make an appearance at the nuptials. However, Prince Harry was spotted both arriving to and leaving the wedding without a date. People reported that Markle did make it to the reception, though, marking a huge milestone in her relationship with the royal.
"Right now, Harry and Meghan are leaning towards not wanting to attract extra attention, especially on a day that's not about them," a source told E! News. "It takes the pressure off."
More than 300 guests were expected to attend the reception at the Middleton family home in Bucklebury. Markle and Harry have been dating and recently made their first public appearance together at a charity polo match.
Just this week, the Church of England granted the couple permission to marry at Westminster Abbey should they get engaged sometime soon, the Daily Express reported.
