Britain's three-month-old future monarch, Prince George, was christened on Wednesday with water from the River Jordan at a rare four-generation gathering of the royal family in London.
George, the son of Prince William and his wife, Catherine, was christened by Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby at the Chapel Royal at St. James's Palace.
The infant wore a replica of an intricate lace and satin christening gown made for Queen Victoria's eldest daughter and first used in 1841.
He left the chapel in his mother's arms with his father by their side.
Queen Elizabeth II and her husband Prince Philip attended the event on Wednesday, along with Prince Charles, his wife Camilla, Prince Harry and other royals.
Kate's parents Michael and Carole Middleton and her sister Pippa and brother James were also on the guest list.
Charles and Camilla were to host a private tea after the Christening at their Clarence House residence in London.
This as, Prince William and his wife Kate have asked seven people to be godparents to their son, Prince George.
The godparents include close friends from their university days, a friend of William's late mother, Princess Diana, a childhood chum of William, and a school friend of Kate's.
They are: Oliver Baker, a friend from St. Andrews University; Emilia Jardine-Paterson, who went to the exclusive Marlborough College with Kate; Earl Grosvenor, who is the son of the Duke of Westminster; Jamie Lowther-Pinkerton, a former private secretary to the couple; Julia Samuel, described as a close friend of the late Princess Diana; Zara Phillips, who is William's cousin, and William van Cutsem, a childhood friend of William.
