Singer Ellie Goulding has reportedly been invited to perform at Prince William and Kate Middleton's wedding reception.

According to the Daily Mail, Ellie was "shocked" to receive a personal invitation from the couple.

The 24-year-old star will be the only singer to perform at the Buckingham Palace event on 29 April.

A source told the newspaper:

"Ellie was knocked off her feet when she received the invitation to perform for Prince William and Kate - and was so hugely honoured when they said they were both big fans of her music.

"She still can't quite believe that she will perform for the Royal newlyweds, all the young Royal guests and their friends, it hasn't sunk in yet."

Ellie is expected to perform a selection of tracks from her hit album Lights, as well as her chart-topping cover of Sir Elton John's Your Song.

Prince William and Kate Middleton will marry at Westminster Abbey on 29 April, with the ceremony set to begin at 11am.
