Prince Harryand Meghan Marklehad quite the weekend, but they’re already heading back to work.

Just three days after the royal wedding, the newDuke and Duchess of Sussexstepped out at a garden party at Buckingham Palace on Tuesday for Prince Charles’ 70th birthday patronage celebrations. It’s the two’s first engagement as a married couple.

She paired the dress with$450 “Siren” heels from Tamara Mellon in blush, anoyster silk clutchfrom Wilbur and Gussie and a hat by Philip Treacy. Meanwhile, Harry looked sharp in his morning dress and carried an umbrella.

Harry also gave a sweet speech in honor of his “Pa.” About midway through, he appeared to get stung by a bee.

“Sorry, that bee really got me,” he said, as the crowd laughed.

Harry and Meghan delayed their honeymoon in order to attend the event, which recognizes thepatronages, military affiliations and charitiesthat the Prince of Wales supports (even though Charles’ birthday is actually in November).

The two were married in front of 600 guests at St. George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle on Saturday as millions of people watched around the globe.
