The news that Royal watchers have waited for was finally announced today. Prince William and his long-time love, Kate Middleton, are officially engaged! Let the countdown to the Royal Wedding begin!
I can't wait to find out who will have the honor of designing her wedding dress, not to mention the extended wedding party's ensembles. Will she wear Princess Diana's sapphire ring? Where will the ceremony be held? Reports have indicated that the wedding will definitely be in London, but no official venue has been revealed yet. I'm hoping for Westminster Abbey. Also, who will be Prince Harry's date for the ceremony? And, where will they honeymoon?
With so much happening in England over the next two years (the 2012 Olympics, the Queen's Diamond Jubilee), this is yet another reason to make the trip across the pond. As if we truly need justification to travel to England!
After visiting all three locales considered for the Royal wedding, I really wish that the couple would have chosen St Paul's Cathedral. To me, it has much more grandeur and charm than Westminster Abbey. However, I would understand why St Paul's may not have been chosen- as the wedding place of Prince William's parents. It was a great experience to be in London during the royal hoopla (no pun intended) surrounding the event!
