Well, I did it. I woke up at 3am to watch the Royal wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton who are now known as the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. Both of my sisters were online with me so we 3-way chatted as we watched the whole event and I also had my mom on the line via text. Here are some photos of the event and fun facts:
The most amazing dress. Designed by Sarah Burton for the House of Alexander McQueen. I actually couldn't get over how beautiful she looked and how perfect that dress is. I'm such a lace fan and this was absolutely stunning. The tiara she wore was actually the one given to the Queen Mum by King George VI (The King's Speech anyone?).
One of the sexiest cars in the world. Hello Rolls Royce! If I could have one, I would. This is a classic style one, they also had some more modern ones which were equally as sexy.
The Royal family on the balcony; a famous and epic scene.
Almost every woman donned a hat and the men all wore "morning suits"....so dapper! Most the fashions were incredible...but I was a little thrown by the "Gaga" inspired hats of Princess Beatrice and Princess Euginie (cousins to Prince William and Harry). They kind of reminded me of the evil step sisters from Cinderella; I'm sure they're very nice girls though... :)
As Kate came down the aisle, Will had his back to her and could not see her. Harry peeked back and leaned over and whispered something to William. Turns out he whispered "Wait til you see her..." How cute is that!? When Kate arrived next to Will (in the arm of her very proud looking dad), William leaned over and whispered "I love you. You look beautiful." *Swoon!* These phrases were both not audible on the tele, but hearing impaired people who can lip read were on the ball with letting us all know what was being said!
They're married!!!
The long awaited SNOG, a tradition started by Prince Charles and Lady Di. William stole two kisses. (Ha- check out the little munchkin on the bottom left...what a trooper).
Anyway, I was so excited to have watched history in the making. Seriously, they're going to be in the textbooks of kids in the far future!!
