Ian and I woke up at 4:30 am last Friday to see the Royal Wedding Live (on TV). It was an amazing event. I felt like I was there, and I was really glued to my TV until the kiss on the balcony. Everything was so beautiful.
I was on the edge of my seat waiting to see what the dress, which had been speculated about endlessly, looked like. I couldn’t wait to see the groom’s face when he saw the bride or to hear all of the traditional pieces of a royal wedding.. live.
It’s different when you see it later in the media. Bits are chopped off and transformed into a good media piece. I wanted a chance to see the whole thing, as it happened, and I was glad to be able to.
Brit came in while the crowd was assembling outside the balcony. I said, “Look, Brit! They’re about to kiss on the balcony. It’s a big deal! Look at the crowd!” She was equally impressed.
I was excited for Britain that day, seeing people happy and celebrating together.
We’ll have to fly in for the next one. 🙂
Photos I found taken by someone who was there.
But the hats! My lord, the hats!
Especially Eugenie, Beatrice and Victoria Beckham.
When did a hat become something you glued to your forehead?
