The wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton will be a family affair.  William named his brother, Prince Harry as his best man and Kate's sister, Pippa was chosen as her maid of honor.

The announcements made by St. James' Palace officials acting on behalf of Prince William make clear that the April 29 wedding at Westminister Abbey will be a family affair that emphasizes the tight bonds between Britain's youthful princes and between Kate Middleton and her younger sister, the stylish, 27-year-old Pippa Middleton, whose formal name is Philippa.

In the past, royal grooms have chosen more than one best man, or supporter.  It's not a hard fast rule, but Prince William, 28, believes Prince Harry, 26, offers all the support he needs.

"It's unusual to have only just one man," said Joe Little, managing editor of Majesty magazine. "All of the queen's sons — Charles, Andrew, Edward — had two supporters at their wedding. But obviously William doesn't feel the need to have more than one supporter."
