Royal Wedding 2011!

15.24

And the required morning-after shot…His & Her Grace, the Duke & Duchess of Cambridge, looking gorgeous.

I’m signing off…back to regularly scheduled blogging on Monday!

15.18

I’ll not lie…I was hoping for some pics of Harry & Pippa partying down on the Monarchy flickr page…but i’ll take the scraps. Kate looks flawless, of course.

Second kiss…slightly better…
And I’m off to the subway!

xoxox

08.29

Really??

That’s it??

Harry & Pippa need to show them how it’s done!

08.26

Here it comes!!!!!

08.24

There will be SMOOCHING!

08.22

Counting down! 2:25 to the kiss!

08.18

London bookies are apparently laying odds on the length of the kiss. 7-4 that it’s between 5 and 8 seconds.

Fabulousness abounds.

07.56

The dress…


07.40

The whole time the camera panned over the congregation, I wondered who was wearing the long, spiky hat that could put someone’s eye out.

Of course, it was Posh.

07.32

Queen gets home. If she’s anything like my mom, she’s worried that there isn’t enough food for all the guests.

07.30

Harry is apparently planning “a survivors’ breakfast” tomorrow morning.

In case there was any doubt, I’m confirming it right now; Harry is a romance novel hero.

07.23

Prince Harry is goofing off with the flower girls like a total charmer…
He’s a rake I cannot WAIT to see reformed!

07.16

Apparently what Harry said to William when Kate was approaching–with a grin: “wait til you see her.”

Harry is such a rake. He’s the best character in the bunch.

07.12

Yes. This.

07.11

I love them.
A lot.

07.10

They look so happy!
Fairy tales for the win.


07.06

Kate curtsies to the Queen. A little phoned in, I think.

07.02

Ok…are Kate & Will making out back there?

06.58

So much for pouring rain.
Take that, weather.

06.57

“Every wedding is a royal wedding, for we are subjects of the King of Creation.” Nicely said.

06.48

Oh, dear.

When you’re 5th & 6th in line for the crown, apparently fashion isn’t entirely top of mind.


06.45

06.43

Awww…cherubs singing again!

06.43

06.43

I’m now feeling like I have lost out by not seeing the official ceremony making the Will the Duke of Cambridge. Silly private ceremonies between grandmother and grandchild.

06.40

Professional lipreader Tina Lannin tells the Press Association that Prince William cracked a joke to his future father-in-law at the altar, telling him: “We were supposed to have just a small family affair.”

LOL. Prince. Charming.

06.35

06.33

Be who God meant you to be, and you will set the world on fire. –St. Catherine of Siena

FAB first line of the sermon. Way to go, Rev!

06.29

Also, James Middleton may try for seriousness, but it’s difficult to accept his gravitas when his tie is completely off kilter.

06.28

Cherubic singing…
Could this be more fairy tale-esque?

06.24

When it’s time for the hymns, I can’t help but think of Eddie Izzard’s bit about “something phenomenally dreary about Christian singing.”

06.21

“Those whom God has joined, let no man put asunder.”

Word.

06.18

They pledge their mutual troth. Kate holds it together way better than I do.

06.15

Kate’s wearing the Cambridge Tiara…a message in two ways.

1) It was a gift from the Queen to Princess Di on her wedding day.

2) Kate’s about to become the Duchess of Cambridge

06.11

“You’re beautiful.”
WIN!!!! – DYING!!!!

(I might be crying.)

06.04

WIll & Harry return…this is the BEST TV EVER.

06.04

Holy cow. She’s gorgeous.
Will marries up.

06.00

Dress time!!!!

05.57

Pippa is stunning. Middleton genes are top notch.

05.54

Holy cow. That dress is gorgeous.
She’s doing really well. I would be yakking on my dad. Honestly.

05.50

The queen is super spry, y’all, she hauled ass out of that car.
Good luck seeing a coronation, Charles.

05.45

Camilla, I judge you. Not for the whole mistress thing. But for this two-tone pleated coat.

05.43

05.31

“There’s nothing like a bus of royals.” – Meredith Viera

Preach it.

05.28

St. Andrews, “hottest university for marriage in the country.”
And teenaged girls the world over download the #standrewscommonapp

05.22

Seriously snappy, boys. Well done.

05.14

Westminster is looking AWESOME. Way to clean up, abbey.

05.10

Raise your hand if you wish Sir Elton were wearing a hat.

05.08

Good morning! Kettle’s on, as is hat!

I’m headed to bed, but I’ll be up bright and early at 4:45am, ready to liveblog all Royal Wedding fabulousness! See you then! xoxo

    Just curious, what channel are you going to be watching it on? I plan on recording it on ABC and CBS.

  • Erin

    OMG! I love your wedding commentary :)

  • Jane

    I love her dress. Though Elton John would have had better seats.

  • Meredith

    I love your commentaries – so much better than Matt Lauer’s!

  • Liz

    Lol loved the commentary. I think the first kiss was kinda cute. It seemed like he just kinda went for it without her expecting. But the second one was better.

    But I have to say, David Beckham wins best dressed male for me. I mean come on, he looked like he step right out of regency romance novel. With his hair swept back, the right amount of stubble going on, and my favorite… he was wearing an actual cravat! Yes, in my opinion, he definitely looked like a dashing lord.

  • StacieDM

    LOL! I thought of that same Eddie Izzard bit from Dressed to Kill. I thought it was a lovely wedding.

  • Shayera

    Did you notice the Queen totally dissing Camilla? When she and Prince Phillip came into the Abbey and went down the line, greeting the clergy and Prince Charles. It rather pleased me.
    The rest of the ceremony was lovely. Even with 1900 people and huge numbers of cameras, it still felt happy.
