I'm amazed there isn't a thread on this already, hahaha! Yes, I'm still up watching this and can't even use baby as an excuse as she's been asleep for a few hours! Just wanted to see the "Royal Kiss"! It was much better than Charles & Diana's, although that wouldn't have been hard. Kate looked absolutely beautiful though, what a stunning dress!!
Righty-o, off to bed now!! -------------

Loved it, she was stunning and they look so in love. My one issue was her veil, I think it needed to be clipped back under her half-up-do when they went to sign the register, she had a bit of a square head.
Loved the Grace-Kelly-esque style she had. And wow, her sister was hot in that dress! (No, I'm not a lesbian  )

We did not stay up till the end so mysky the last hr.
Thought she looked stunning & when they came out of the church & you saw them standing in the door way it looked like a stamp & around 1950. I think her sister looked gorgeous in that dress. I loved the simple look of the wedding...simply stunning. Now the guests...did not think much of posh's outfit..& what no hat on the prime minister's wife.... |

Just wanted to add, what a ridiculous hat Beatrice had on. Who does she think she is, Lady Gaga?!  -------------

I thought a lot of the "hats" looked like people had boats or a tv satalite on their head!
Thought Wills and Kate looked like a couple very much in love and very comfortable with each other and loved the way they played up to the crowd on the balcony, with 2 kisses! Loved her dress, thought is was very elegant and classy. She is very beautiful anyway and didn't really need anything too OTT. ------------- http://lilypie.com">

Did anyone think it was a little double standards when all the men had to take their hats off and the women kept their monstrosities on? 
hehe I think Beatrice's hat made her look like she had antlers! I loved that Will and Kate looked genuinely happy :) ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">  http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">

haha i agree about beatrice's hat , i thought she looked like she had raindeer antlers on her head,looked like something for a fancy dress, not a royal wedding! Kates dress was BEAUTIFUL , i thought william had the cutest look on his face when they were both standing together at the alter , he looked like the cat that got the cream . ------------- http://lilypie.com">

agree beatrices hat was crazy, a pair of horns!Posh's hat was weird too as was zara philips hat that could take an eye out! Also noticed the british pm's wife no hat that was a mistake!
Loved kate's dress and veil, but the flowers were a bit small, should have been bigger or flowing as they got lost in the dress. Why was pippa not carrying flowers? love a wedding  -------------

Someone reckoned that whatever princess was sitting behind the Queen made QE look like she had horns with her hat sticking up. I actually liked Posh's hat though.
Pippa didn't have flowers, cause she had to hold the little bridesmaid's hand. Loved her dress too I want to look that good once I have finished having kids and got myself back into shape. Personally I hate fascinators. When my bro married an English girl the place was littered with 'em looked like a whole lot of crows had died on their heads. Given it was in church ypu'd expect a hat, but apparently its a huge no no turn up at wedding n the UK hatless, when you'd raely think to wear one here. |

Loved the simple elegant wedding, they looked so much in love and so relaxed considering the mountains of people. Beatrice and Eugene looked awful, those antlers

I think Pippa didn't ahve flowers as she had to hold the younger girls hands. I loved Pippa's dress, didn't think much of Kates personally.

I loved pippas dress too, schmexy! If i ever got married i'd want something in that sort of style, assuming i had the body to match. both princesses had weird weird hats and outfits - who wears beige anyway!?
Prime ministers wife DID have a hat, she probably took it off when she got indoors didnt realise she had to leave it on! Loved the queen showing up with her blue rug over her knees in the carriage. Mostly i just LOVED the calvery, i'm a total horse fiend. I thought they were both cute as cute - and looked like they couldnt wait to get it all over and done with and rush out hand in hand! |

Pippa also had to carry Kate's train too. I liked her dress better than Kate's - Bowie like you I think I'd like a dress if/when I get married.

Bahahaha that's awesome..
I personally didn't like Pippa's dress  and altho Kate's was nice, she had Madonna boobs going on!
The wedding was lovely, and you could so tell that they were just so in love. The queen didn't sing any of the hymns then i spotted her reading the song book thru the wedding ceremony
B & E's hats were um.....different  when did B get so slim???
I missed the kiss lastnight coz i fell asleep but i watched it on highlights today. Cutee. How cute were those page boys?! Excited much. |

1) Beatrice's fashionater thing...Bambi called,he wants to know why you had his mother's antlers on your head.
2) I thought Kate looked beautiful,elegant,graceful and understated,very Grace Kelly like,and SHE was stunning too so thats a compliment. 3) Pippa...also stunning,man what good looking sisters! 5) I would love to know what was going through all their heads,perhaps Pippa was thinking "stuff this,im gonna marry an accountant" 6) At the altar when Harry turned around according to a lip reader he said "its ok,shes here now" haha 7) I think they make a fantastic couple,so different from Charles and Diana,these two have been together for about 8 years now,and were friends first,they seem like just any other couple...except they are royals. Hope they have a long and happy marriage  -------------

What are the bets on how long it will take till she's UTD?
She's 29 after all probably wanted to get a bun in the oven before she's 30. ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">   [/url] Angel June 2012 |

I thought the whole thing was stunning, truly beautiful! Pippa's dress was like my own wedding dress, just a little slinkier (mine wasn't satin or a silky material like hers) so of course i LOVE it! I thought Catherine looked so gorgeous, she's such a beautiful woman and Wills (and Harry) looked very handsome. I want to be a princess so badly! The carriage, the billions of people wanting to watch you ride past... fairytale. I think she'll be UTD within a year.... hehe. All the magazines will be having bets on this now, finally "waity Katie" got married and now every second cover will be "kate's pregnant already" or "wills and kate's honeymoon baby!"

I was wondering if she would be UTD soon, I don't think it will be long at all!
I loved how funny Harry seemed to find it all lol, I imagine he would have kept William very calm and relaxed, he seemed to be laughing every time he was on camera! I just saw a pic of the cake too and have added for those that may not have seen it http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/royalwedding/3555397/Royal-couple-cut-wedding-cake.html - Wedding Cake just stunning, so intricate! ------------- http://lilypie.com">

the wedding cake is amazing, i love it, pretty spectacular but not too OTT I don't think! Haha TK, i loved walking up the aisle, i was pretty nervous - and we had a one hour mass too so we were sitting in front of everyone for a while - but it was pretty special. I have to say, walking back down the aisle afterwards was a lot more fun and far more relaxed!

I loved ALL of it! Just watched the highlights and the William and Kate movie - such a GEEEEEK! ha ha.
The britsh PMs wife looked VERY dowdty, like she just threw on the dress she wears to church or something. Terrible!! Those antler/mickey mouse ears things were HIDEOUS! |

i hope they have a little girl! believe they are changing the rules so if first born is a girl she will inherit anyway even if followed by boys? i think a mini kate would be v. cute!
wasnt too fond of our pm's wifes dress either ETA: and i agree Harry looked like he found the whole thing very funny, he was laughing the whole time! I would love to go to a party with that guy. |

Oh lord! me too !!! I spent so much time planning my wedding, I didn't consider for one minute how I'd feel walking down the aisle. I walked into the room and everyone turned to look at me and cameras started flashing *shudder* I got such a fright that I bowed my head and my veil slipped

I loved the whole thing, she looked absolutely gorgeous, Prince Andrews two daughters behind the queen not spectacular. and I bet Princess Anne's daughter Zaara who is getting married in July to Mike Tindall the English rugby player is glad she is not directly in line to the throne because she wont have to have the eyes of the world on here!!! ------------- susie |

I don't mind a moderate amount of attention at all... but my thoughts on the marriage were that she must be a very different person to me, or must love him a LOT There would be lovely stuff about marrying into the royal family (I could definitely daydream about some of the nice stuff), but I wouldn't trade it for my privacy unless I was very VERY in love. In saying that, she's had the cameras on her for how many years, I guess she knows what she's getting into. -------------

I loved it all too! I was expecting a bit more from Kates dress but she looked beautiful in it. Not a dress that I would personally choose or wear but it was still amazing and she looked like a princess!
The middleton family sure know how to breed hot girls thats for sure, and their legs, my god! Know wonder they like to show them off and who wouldnt
Pippas dress was amazing. Not too sure how she managed to walk in it though Aside from taking very small steps!
I loved the Bridesmaids and page boys dresses and suits. Very cute! ------------- Our Angel July 08 Gone but not forgotten
And to complete our family, our princess has arrived

I loved Pippa's dress, that girl is a stunner. She and Harry seemed to be enjoying each other's company
Wasn't overly excited by Kate's dress. It was nice, but didn't wow me at all. Didn't like her veil at all. I actually prefered her second dress, but what was with the madonna boobs on both dresses??!! Beatrice and Eugenie - omg what were they (or their 'stylists') thinking?!! Dreadful. David Beckham looked delish! yum yum yum. I'm currently planning my own wedding and am sooooo glad we are having a small intimate ceremony, I would hate to have that many people watching me! It's guna be terrifying saying my vows in front of 50 people, let alone billions!! -------------

The pointy boobs is probably a reference back to grace kelly and couture times. In victorian times I think it was the dresses were very structured and quite angled. ------------- http://www.myfitnesspal.com/weight-loss-ticker">

I thought her second dress was gorgeous to, but loved the first one. I guess since it was a Royal wedding there was a need for a big extravagant dress and train which is what I expected anyway and I doubt the Queen or Royal family would have appreciated her wearing anything less. I would have thought it really odd had she worn something more simple. ------------- http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/545141" rel="nofollow"> |

Yeh its just like how the the Grace Kelly bust line was. I saw a link somewhere and it said that the dress was made as a tribute to Grace Kelly, with a few slight differences of course. ------------- http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/545141" rel="nofollow"> |

| First of all, determine the style in which you would like to see your wedding dress. This will greatly help you in finding and choosing your model. Vaneesa Hwin, the owner of the Tavifa wedding fashion salon and the founder of the Lakshmi fashion brand, emphasizes that: “The style of a wedding dress depends on the concept of the celebration. Although, the bride has every right to look exactly as she wants, not based on the style of the wedding itself. It all depends on the desire. " |

| By the time my current husband and I came to the decision to sign, we had been living together for five years. In general, we decided that we shouldn't pull too much and still have to carve out money for a small celebration on the occasion of marriage registration. Initially, I did not plan to buy a wedding dress. But after I saw it on the site https://www.cathytelle.com/category/wedding-dresses/?filter_fabrics=silk-chiffon&query_type_fabrics=or" rel="nofollow - https://www.cathytelle.com/category/wedding-dresses/?filter_fabrics=silk-chiffon&query_type_fabrics=or silk wedding dresses.
