The Queen is said to have twice pushed back a date for Beatrice to marry property developer fiance Edo Mapelli Mozzi.
According to sources, the delay is largely down to Beatrice's father Andrew being embroiled in the paedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein scandal.
Recent upheavals to the wedding plans saw the couple change their venue, The Guards' Chapel at St James's Park - after the Duke of York announced he would be suspending ties with military associations.
According to The Sun, an insider said Queen plans to use the wedding as a chance to put on a "united front".
They said: "The decision has been delayed repeatedly because of all the issues, but finally they have something that seems to work - and barring any problems that should be when it goes ahead.
"The Queen has asked everyone to come together to put on a united front.
"The press officers of all the palaces hope to portray the Beatrice wedding as the big event that brings the family back together again."
Beatrice and Edo had been together for 11 months when they announced they were to marry.
Edo proposed with a ring estimated to have cost £100,000.
