Prince William and Duchess Catherine tied the knot in Westminster Abbey in London five years ago and celebrated with a lavish reception at Buckingham Palace.

A message on Kensington Palace's Twitter page read: "Happy anniversary to The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge!" It was accompanied by a short video with the caption: "Some of our favourite moments from the past five years ... (sic)."

The couple are planning a "low key" celebration at their country estate, Anmer Hall in Norfolk.

A source told Us Weekly: "It will be low-key and private. They already feel like they've been celebrating."

The college sweethearts got engaged in October 2010 and their wedding was televised to 72 million people worldwide.

They have gone on to have two children together, Prince George, two and Princess Charlotte, who will turn one next week.

William and Catherine recently represented Queen Elizabeth on a royal trip to India, while the children remained in the UK with their nanny.
