The royal wedding

How excited are you? I'm interested and might watch it (I'm not going to wake up super early just for it, though) and DH doesn't get it at all.

    I really want to watch it. Maybe I'll dvr it. I'm excited about it. I love weddings, love planning them, love everything about them. My DH probably doesn't even know it's happening.

  • Do you know what time the actual wedding starts? And on what channel?

    No clue. But I have a feeling it will be on every channel :-)

  • i know it's completely silly, but i watched the prince charles and princess diana wedding, i watched fergie marry andrew, i remember the divorces, i remember when william and harry were born, i remember when diana died, and i will definitely watch this wedding.

  • I'm in the "not my cup of tea" camp. I could care less and actually thought it had already happened, since the hooplah had already died down once.
    We have so much time, and so little to do! Strike that, reverse it.

  • I'm sure it'll be airing on the major networks. I heard on the radio they are scheduled to kiss at 7:30am so I would assume the wedding coverage itself starts at like 5am? I want to watch but I won't be waking up that early.

  • Don't really care for Will and Kate (they're drier than toast/really boring), but I'll be tuning in to see the crazy british lady hats. They never fail to amuse me.
  • I like that we're watching history happen!  I'll definitely catch snippits here and there.  I believe CNN coverage starts at 4am.  I won't be watching live, but will probably tune in when I wake up. :P
  • We don't get cable, so unless it's on one of the over the air stations, I probably won't get to watch it. I'd like to, though. I vaguely remember Diana's wedding and I'd be interested in seeing this one.

  • I really want to watch it!!  I think it's so exciting!  And I cannot WAIT to see her gown and see all the wedding breakfast decor and the wedding night party decor.

    So I read in Vanity Fair this month that technically the Queen will bestow a title on William when he marries.  He might not even be a prince!  He could be a duke or something.  I never understood how that worked.  I'm sure he'll get to keep his Prince title but it's just funny bc I never thought that that could change.

    Also, I think it's funny how William is considered handsome and Charles is considered not so handsome, but when you compare their photos at the same age, Charles starts to not look so bad (and had more hair!)  Harry, on the other hand, is going to age pretty well I think.  Such a cutie!

  • I'll DVR or watch it online from work because I remember Diana getting married and having her boys and now they're getting married. I feel bad for Kate Middleton though. It is so much pressure and it's not even your wedding. It's a wedding for the country. She must really love William to give up her privacy and her choices like that.
  • The Today show keeps advertising coverage starting at 3central/4eastern, so I'm guessing it will be shown on NBC. I won't get up early to watch, but I might record it to fast forward the boring parts. ETA: that's 3/4 am, not pm.
  • I will not be tuning in or DVRing it at all.  I really don't care.  But I may or may not like to see some pictures of it afterwards! ;-)

  • i'll dvr it. i eat up all the royal stuff, and love all the pageantry.  

  • eh, not so interested.

    I'll check out the photos afterwards, though...

    William was definitely the cuter of the two when they were younger (teens). Add to the fact that Harry was a "ginger" (which pretty much makes you the butt of all jokes over there) and Wills was the definite winner of the two. 

    But, over time, William has started to look more like his dad and less like his mom and Harry has turned into quite the looker.

     

    As for the  wedding, I am a huge anglophobe, so I'll be watching (and DVRing). Embarrassed

  • I'm planning to watch! I saw Charles and Di and Andrew and Fergie get married and love the pomp.

  • I just found out that one of my coworkers is going to London this weekend.  She used to work for E! and her friends on the crew are out there covering it so she's just going to hang out with them over the weekend, coming back Sunday.  I'm so jealous!
