Prince William's wedding

I just had to share my stupid moment yesterday...

I was half listening to the news yesterday morning on my drive in to work when they announced the wedding date for Prince William's wedding.  I don't even remember the date, but it was a Friday...and my first thought was, "Oh, they might get better deals getting married on a Friday rather than a Saturday." 

Then I laughed at myself...duh...they probably aren't worried about saving a few dollars having it on a Friday, you know, since it is also going to be a national holiday and all...

  • Haha!

    It's April 29 :)

    Before I heard that it was a Friday, my first thought was, "I wonder if they kicked some other couple out of Westminster Abbey for that date". Then I realized that they probably did the Friday since it was probably available. I imagine Westminster Abbey must be a popular venue!

  • That is funny.  I don't think that they have to pay for any of the venues being that they own the reception hall and all.

  • A girl on my local board got an invite to a party where all the girls are going to get together to watch the wedding on tv. They are going to bring typical wedding appetizers and wear their wedding dresses.

  • Ringy - only royalty and those with royal permission can get married at Westminster. It's one of the perks of being the head of the Anglican church.

    This sounds like it would be a lot of fun.

    Somehow I feel like I should have known that, but I did not. Thanks!

  • I actually have a date night with my BFF to watch it on TV. We have a sick obsession with the royal wedding/family. Her other BFF's mom is actually from England and got her started on the obsession. I just like to dream big that I might still have a shot to be a princess someday.

  • LOL! Maybe they're just being fashionable by throwing it on a Friday night. Perhaps they don't want the super fancy pants mid-day service.

    I assumed (which means I could be way off) they were doing it on a Friday bc they wanted to make it a National Bank Holiday and close everything down.  If it was on a weekend, things would already be closed ??? (is that a dumb guess?)
