Royal Wedding ... who watched it?

[Carol17]

OMG! I thought exactly the same thing! Too funny.

Yup, me too! Cinderella's wicked step sisters. I do feel a little bad saying that. I'm sure they are lovely girls...but....well, enough said.

5:30 is my regular time to wake up, so I watched it from then until about 6:30 then I left for work at 7:00. Good thing there was not much traffic, so I got into work and watched it again. The main thing I was looking forward to was the kiss and so happy to have been able to witness this as I too did see Diana and Charles marry, oh so many years ago.

DH said it was like a fairy tale wedding and this coming from someone who was not 'interested' in anything of this until y/day.

For some reason, watching the crowds walk behind the police to the palace reminded me of rope drop

 

[tone.def]

I watched ;o)

Historic moment, I remember watching Prince Charles and Diana as a child. I hope in 20 years we are celebrating their coronation.

I watched it too. Got up at 5am

Is it just me or did Princess Eugenia and Princess Beatrice look like Cinderella's wicked stepsisters?

thats exactly what I was thinking when I saw them. Entertainment tonight named them and their mother as worst dressed...that reminds me...I'll have to catch Fashion Police...they're doing a Royal Wedding edition...Joan Rivers is brutal yet hilarious.

I don't think their mother was even at the wedding (at least not according to the news outlets I saw). Maybe the paparazzi photoshopped her into some unflattering pictures.

I didn't get up early to watch it, but I have a DVR and work from home! It was a great even to work to today! LOVED IT!

They truly look in love. Kate may have been a commoner, but Dutchess Catherine is pure royalty!




P.s. Did the pink hat on the one "step-sister" look like a hidden minnie to anyone else??

I loved all the shots of the Abbey. I had no idea how big & beautiful it is. And trees inside??!! I was in awe! I'd love to see it in person one day.

So lovely...next big thing in wedding decor...Trees!!

The twiggly/white lights idea just got a big bump up

The trees were only brought in for the wedding at Kate's request. I saw them being taken into the Abbey the other day on tv (I think it was Good Morning America or the Today Show).

I have to remember to watch that too! I couldn't believe how many people had on horrible looking hats & terrible outfits! Everyone's dresses were sooo expensive yet sooo ugly & plain

When they were talking on the news about "the big fashion" being the hats, I couldn't wait to see them all! I used to look at hats in my grandma's magazines so I was excited to see the different ones that the Royal family would have on. I was disappointed.

LOL -- I totally thought of that too!!!

Watched some of it this morning, but kept dozing off, now watching the re-runs!
I teared up watching her walk down the aisle, very moving. I wish they would re-play the hymn Jerusalem sung by the choir. It was beautiful.

I watched Diana's wedding too.

 

[fnkyyellow]

I was up in time to see the Prince's heading to the church. Kate looked amazing!
I couldn't get over the "step sister's" also. Beatrice had so much eye makeup on... it was a 11:00 am wedding!!! And that hat? Yikes
Her sister looked like she was wearing a couch pattern. It's too bad, for 2 young women they certainly made bad wardrobe choices!!

 

[mmacneil]

Hehe, I wondered who those ladies were sitting behind the Queen. The hats stood out to say the least.

 

[Cdn Gal]

Yep I watched it when I got up and then watched the re-runs later last night!

You nailed it! I was watching them and thinking they reminded me of something. A mom at my son's school said this, and I thought "that's it!"

I don't think their mother was even at the wedding (at least not according to the news outlets I saw). Maybe the paparazzi photoshopped her into some unflattering pictures.

My mistake. I was thinking Auntie and wrote mother.

Woke up at 3am with my mother to watch the whole broadcast and I'm very happy I did. Just to increase the experience I made tea and cucumber sandwichs and scones with cream and we had a very early little breakfast.
