I'm almost 100% certain this was the wedding of Princess Anne and Captain Mark Philips on 14th November 1973, but I haven't found any references to back this up. I will keep looking!

Still can't find any written confirmation, but as the previous Royal Wedding was that of the Queen in 1947, I am sure this is a safe bet :-)

Royal weddings in the early sixties were Princess Margaret to Anthony Armstrong-Jones and Princess Alexandra to Angus Ogilvy, but these were before colour tv.
