Wow! What an incredible occasion! They've done so well the pair of them, cool as cucumbers and stunning looking. Honestly, this country sure knows how to put on a 'do'. I've been teary watching it cos it's so lovely and lord knows I'm no particular royalist, it's just great seeing everyone so happy.

There is only now
I have to say I am a republican but do think that William is probably the most "normal" royal we've ever had.
They make a very nice couple and it was a lovely occasion.
Just one thing...can someone explain to me why the minor royals have attended in minibuses?:8855:
Now that was worth watching it for.

Well I gave in & watched. I have to say I thought the sister's dress was actually the more lovely. Appeals to me, being simple, almost Grecian,fluid, figure sculpting (grrr!) & just looked so serene & gorgeous. I loved the cowl neckline. I wasnt that keen on all the lace on Kate's dress, although she did look very pretty...

Been glued to the telly - LOVED IT!! They look lovely together and seem pretty down to earth. Loved her WOW when she walked out on the balcony and how amazing was their drive to Clarence House in Charles car... absolutely brilliant.
You have to hand it to us though, no other country in the world can do an occasion like that quite like the British can

I'm not a fan of the royals in the slightest, but of course was going to watch it, as it is a historic moment. couldn't be doing with all the hype around it though!
My friends get married tomorrow and were really excited about it, and had a "tea" at the local pub with tea and scones while watching the wedding, which I went to. It was nice to see everyone excited about something!
I think they make a lovely couple-truly in love! Kate looked beautiful. I want to know what Harry said to Will though just before Kate came down the aisle-when he looked round, said something to Will and giggled.
A good day, and has got us all in the mood for the wedding tomorrow

What numpty on Spanish TV bought that nonsense?!!
It's not officially a state occasion as William is not heir apparent. Won't be until his grandmother dies. There's the difference as far as "funding" is concerned.
Aside from the fact that I am astounded that anyone should expect the public purse to completely fund the wedding of the offspring of a millionaire and a multi-millionaire when the rest of us can barely sleep at night for worry about our own finances...I think you will find that this wedding has cost the taxpayer many tens of millions of pounds - some £20 million I understand on security alone. This coming out of police budgets when they are facing massive cutbacks and redundancies.
Paying for their own wedding my arse!!

I could not say what "numpty" on Spanish T.V. said it as I did not see it and I was only posting a remark made by some one from here. It actually makes me cross that there is so much misinformation in the press on a global level.
I understand 100% what you are saying. We have the same worries ourselves here, no different at all.
