Prince William was wearing the famous tunic of an Irish Guards officer rather than his RAF uniform.
He holds the honorary rank of Colonel of the Irish Guards and honoured the regiment by walking down the aisle with his bride in the dashing scarlet uniform.He was also wearing his Garter sash and star, Royal Air Force 'wings', and Golden Jubilee medal.
The decision is unexpected as the prince is a Flight Lieutenant in the RAF working as a search and rescue helicopter pilot, and could have worn the uniform of the air force.

Prince Harry is a newly promoted Captain in the Household Cavalry's Blues and Royals and wears the uniform of his new rank. He is a trainee Apache helicopter pilot and will wear the 'wings' of the Army Air Corps and his Golden Jubilee and Afghanistan Campaign medals.

Charles wore his most formal military uniform when his son ties the knot. The Prince, who has held the title of Admiral of the Royal Navy since 2006, wore his blue Royal Navy number one ceremonial dress, a spokesman confirmed.

I wonder what Prince Will's and Miss Middleton's duties will consist of, as a married couple of the royal family. (Will she be Princess Kate now?)
No, Kate is not a princess. She is now Kate, the Duchess of Cambridge. As to royal duties I expect they will both undertake them when required. Right now William has returned to his duties in the air force and they will have a honeymoon later in the year.
And I also wonder if Buckingham Palace has a section where the family actually lives day to day, and these rooms that are not used on a regular basis because they are so opulent.
The Queen and Prince Phillip live in the palace when they are in London, it is also the London home of the Duke of York (Prince Andrew) and the Earl (Prince Edward)and Countess of Wessex and their daughter. The palace is a huge place and whether they use the rooms pictured regularly or not I would not know but I should imagine they would be used for ceremonial/banqueting and other formal occasions.
