Earlier this year, all eyes were on Prince Harry and Meghan Markle in the lead-up to their May wedding. Lucky for any Royal Family fans, there's another Royal Wedding coming up, and it's sure to be just as gorgeous—if not quite as big of a spectacle as Prince Harry's big day. Naturally, the two weddings are already drawing comparisons.

As Princess Eugenie, Harry and William's cousin, prepares to marry Jack Brooksbank, the Palace has been releasing details bit by bit, as they did with the last wedding. While we already knew both weddings would happen at St. George's Chapel, we now know what cake Eugenie chose—and it sounds like she may have taken some inspo from Meghan.

As a refresher, Harry and Meghan had a lemon elderflower cake decorated with buttercream and fresh flowers at their wedding. Here's what it looked like, side-by-side with Princess Eugenie's cake.

Princess Eugenie veered away from a traditional fruitcake, too, and picked a red velvet and chocolate cake. The palace called it "a traditional cake, with a modern feel. It will incorporate the rich colors of autumn in its design and will be covered with detailed sugar work including ivy."

Despite choosing very different flavor profiles, both cakes are reflective of the season during which the wedding is (or was) held. Elderflowers are in bloom in May and June, while Eugenie's cake, as noted, is inspired by the fall. Both brides also chose a local baker: London based cake designer Sophie Cabot will make Princess Eugenie's cake, while East London's Violet Baker made Meghan's.

The royal wedding will take place this Friday, October 12, and will be televised on TLC starting at 4:35 a.m. EST (with an encore at 7:25 a.m., thankfully).
