Rejected petition Allow a Bank Holiday for the marriage of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle

I work in an industry where bank holidays mean nothing and would like to be granted an additional one so that I can celebrate the Royal Wedding with my family as I did with Price William and Catherine Middleton. As a massive royalist this means a great deal to me.
