So who watched the wedding?

I got up at 5:30 to watch, since that's when they said the processional would start. The whole thing was gorgeous! Kate looked amazing (if not a little skinny) in that dress. She did look pretty tired during the sermony parts of the wedding. I can't imagine that she got ANY sleep the night before. I certainly wouldn't have.

Re: So who watched the wedding?

  • I woke up at 3:50 a.m. to catch all the pre-ceremony coverage.  She looked stunning and so humble.  I loved her reaction on the balcony of Buckingham Palace - almost as if she couldn't believe all those people were there to see them.  ABC News said that when she got in the carriage for the recessional she said to William "I am so happy right now."

  • I caught about 1/2 hour while I was getting ready for work. I hope I can watch it online later. Kate looked gorgeous in her dress.
  • I caught a little bit before I left the house this morning while waiting for DS to wake up. Kate looked sooooo gorgeous! I thought her dress was perfect. Probably PG hormones but I teared up a bit.

  • I watched a lot more than I planned on since I couldn't sleep last night/this morning, and I set my DVR to record the parts I missed. She looked gorgeous, I LOVE her dress and veil.

  • And I totally loved all the hats and fascinators.

    Loved Pippa's dress.

  • We were all watching it at work this morning... either on the computers or in our patients' rooms while wrapping things up before change of shift...  I missed her walking down the aisle and that was the only part I really wanted to see!  But now I'm watching all the Today Show and CNN online coverage.  She looked so beautiful, and they look so happy together.  It was so cute when she got to the altar (saw this in the coverage online) and Will said to Kate, "You look so beautiful."  Ah- I could cry!  So sweet.

  • I caught the carriage ride while I was getting ready for work, then I left as soon as the entered Buckingham Palace and made it to work in time to watch "the kiss" live on YouTube. I caught other highlights on YouTube videos and videos on CNN.com. I am DVR-ing one of the morning shows to watch at some point this weekend.

    I loved Pippa's dress and how Harry was peeking as she walked down the aisle. I like how you could see her say "Wow" when they came out on the balcony.

  • DS woke up at 3:30 so I stayed up from that moment on.  Her dress was GORGEOUS!!!!  She made a beautiful bride.

  • I actually got to see most of it even though I had to work.  I woke up at 6, just in time to see her get out of the car.  I watched the whole processional and the vows.  Then I jumped in the shower during the sermon.  DD got up in time to see them leave the church and part of the carriage ride.  She liked Pippa better than Kate, oh well!  I got to school and watched some of the today show on my computer, and then we let the kids watch "the kiss" live during first hour. 
  • I set the DVR to record it, but my internal clock still had me up at 430am. So I watched it until they went into the palace, went to work, and watched the kiss live on the computer. 

     It was beautiful! They looked so happy :)

  • I normally get up for work at 5:30, so I watched while I got ready, and then put it on in homeroom at school.

  • I was up at 5:30 getting ready for work, so I watched some then, but had to leave before she got in the car! I DVR'd the rest and am watching now. I love it!! I wasn't all into it before but now I can't turn it off (and I should since I have to work tomorrow...). She looks so beautiful and I can't even imagine being in her shoes. I'm not tearing up yet but I feel like I could soon...

  • It was such a fairytale :) She looked beautiful, he looked like the perfect (although balding!) prince.
  • I only saw bits and pieces of the replay. It figures the hotel we were staying at at the time was the only freaking hotel on the trip that didn't have any English news stations.
  • I watched it!  I got up at 4 am and kind of dozed on the couch as the various guests arrived and then had my coffee at 5 am and watched the "real" guests arrive lol.

    I loved it - I loved seeing how happy she and William were, ABC I think had lip readers (lol) so there is a "transcript" of things they were saying, and william said to her when they got in the carriage something like "You did great, you're my wife, I love you" and then on the balcony before the second kiss it was something like "let's give them another, I love you" which I thought was so sweet.  It was just so obvious that they are so in love which is so nice to see I think.

  • I don't know why I didn't listen to everyone saying it starts at 5am. I could have also been that I didn't want to wake up. I turned it one around 6 something, they were at the altar. I watch the vows and the exchanging of the ring.

    When I got to work I watch the kiss on the balcony.I watched the re-runs Friday evening and Saturday morning. Overall, everything was beautiful. Congrats to Kate & Will.

  • I got confused about the schedule and got up @ 6.  I checked FB and saw Firedancer's update about just seeing her get out of the limo and I raced downstairs to see Kate finishing her walk to the altar.  I watched the whole thing until the kiss and then the replay of the early morning events, her leaving the hotels, all the processions, etc. 

    She looked gorgeous, but needs a burger stat!  They both looked soo happy and in love.  I thought they did a great job of being royal, traditional, but also updating it a bit.

    I missed all this! I did see where the lip reader translated what William said to Kate's dad at the alter and thought it was cute. I love reading stuff like this..it makes them seem more "real" and its nice to know they are so in love. I was too young to remember Princess Di's wedding, but their marriage always seemed like a sham to me. Especially since they split up when I was in high school in you always heard about Camilla being his mistress and how they were always in love, but the queen didn't approve or whatever.
