The text of the Vivats to be sung by the Scholars of Westminster School during the King and Queen's procession through the Abbey at the beginning of the Service are:

Vivat Regina Camilla! Vivat Regina Camilla! 

Vivat! Vivat! Vivat! 

 

Vivat Rex Carolus! Vivat Rex Carolus! 

Vivat! Vivat! Vivat!

This comparison between the 1953 and 2023 Coronations rites may be of interest.

The Coronation Order of Service.pdf (royal.uk)

This is the printed Order of Service as used in the Abbey.  It contains details of all the processions and I think there are peers who took part in the processions who haven't yet been identified as having being present.

I was amused to see the Daily Mail and others online going on about the "hunky Major" so visible around the King during the Coronation, referring to Jonathan Thompson, Groom of the Robes. If they'd only checked the Coronation Order of Service they'd have learned that he is now Lieutenant Colonel Jonathan Thompson -- "hunky Lieutenant Colonel." then, though "hunky Major" has a better ring to it.

Even in the Daily Telegraph there is lax reporting. Last week referring to Prince Albert of Monaco as "King Albert" and today the statement that Princess Alexandra "has not performed a public engagement for over a decade". What nonsense. Even when her coronation neighbour Harry was supposedly active  she still performed more engagements per year than him

Confusion between the Duke of Kent's wife and his sister? 

Agreed - absolute rubbish from the Telegraph.

It is not correct even for the Duchess of Kent. She attended a memorial for the first anniversary of Grenfell Tower in 2018.

Another absurd statement in the Telegraph that Harry was sitting with "distant relatives".In the context of this coronation Justin Welby is a distant relative as tenth cousin or David Cameron as a descendant of William IV
