Oslo, May 7,

Princess Ragnhild Alexandra, 22-year-old daughter of Crown Prince Olay and Crown Princess Martha of Norway, has chosen a simple ceremony in the village church near her father's country estate for her wedding on May 15 to Mr Erling Lorentzen.

But a Princess, even when she marries a com- moner in her own village church, cannot escape completely from regal limelight and so, although court officials describe the wedding as "a family affair" it will have all the elements of a tradi- tional Royal wedding.
