Do any of the Lascelles get invited to these sort of extended family events?

Most unfortunate that the most glaring error on the tree refers to the bride's grandfather as George, Duke of GLOUCESTER!

and it would appear that information about her tiara is apparently incorrect too - the one Lady Gabriella wore is not the same as the one Princess Marina (her grandmother) to her wedding to Prince George.

You can also include Mark Phillips year of birth on the tree as well., born 1948 not 1959.

Oddly, it seems the Duke and Duchess of Kent were not at the wedding.  The Duke was on an official trip to Greece at the time.  

Not to be gossipy, but that seems like rather a close relation's wedding to miss.  I always see old media reports of the Queen's supposed rift with the Kents, but she and Prince Philip were prominently involved here, and in the wedding photos!

On Duke and Duchess of Kent. The Duchess barely attends any public events, so if the Duke was away....Likely his event was scheduled before the wedding.
