It is believed that the bride’s parents, Prince Andrew and the Duchess of York, were both in attendance.
But it is not known whether her younger sister Princess Eugenie, 30, and brother-in-law Jack Brooksbank were present.
Weddings of up to 30 people are now allowed to take place under the current government guidelines.
Beatrice, the Duke of York’s eldest daughter and the Queen’s granddaughter, was set to marry Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi on May 29 at the Chapel Royal of St James’s Palace this year.
There were set to be 150 guests in attendance, followed by a lavish reception planned at the garden of Buckingham Palace.
But the couple had to postpone their big day shortly after the government announced the UK was going into lockdown on March 23 due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Millionaire property tycoon Mr Mapelli Mozzi has dual British and Italian citizenship – and Italy has faced one of the worst battles with the pandemic.
