Rejected petition Declare a UK bank holiday for the day of HRH Prince Henry of Wales Royal Wedding

I feel the UK should have the day of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's Royal Wedding declared a bank holiday as it is something to celebrate and bring the UK together. The Royal Family is something to be proud of and any significant event should be viewed by as many people as possible
