Beautiful, classy and perfect do those simple word sum up a fantastic day.?
As with the rest of the world, I wish the Royal couple a happy ever after.
I can't believe its 30 years since I sat and watched his parents wedding.
So did you sit and watch, take part in a street party, or simply enjoy your Friday in the sun?
After receiving a special candy bag from Elaine and a goodie box of samples and Magazine from Tiets, I think its time for me to pass it on. Thank you girls for your generosity, its lovely to be spoilt by you.
I have a wedding candy bags to send to 4 followers who leave me a comment today.
take care and enjoy your weekend

Karen, it was a wonderful event and certainly made me proud to be British. William and Kate make such a lovely couple and I hope they have a happy, healthy and long life together. Best wishes, Kym xxx
I agree Karen, I thought she looked stunning and I loved her dress. I never did like Diana's...too fussy and over the top. I think they looked very relaxed and happy...and more importantly in love and comfortable with each other.
It is hard to believe it is 30 years since Charles and Diana wed...lets hope William and Catherine are happier...I am also predicting kids within 2 years!

I just loved watching every minute of the wedding! it was very honest and real - dont you just love Will and Kate! I particularly loved how they went for a drive in the convertible - how fun (just like them!!!)
Pick me,pick me ♥

Kate looked very stunning, and although I'm not religious the ceremony was lovely, made me think back to my own wedding and I spent the rest of the day with a warm glow :)
I agree with you Karen - I was glued to the service & thrilled at the words of the Prayer Book Ceremony. I was struck by the understated elegance of her dress & sheer joy of the couple. As always thanks for all you do.

Those words are PERFECT Karen! Such a beautiful couple and I too cannot believe it is thirty years since I sat and watched his parents wedding! It was late in the evening here in OZ so no street party, but certainly toasted the new Duke and Duchess of Cambridge! Enjoy the rest of your weekend, take careX:)
Hi,Karen. I'm Italian and I was at work during the ceremony, but I teach English and I couldn't help watching all the replays and follow ups when I came back lol! William is as old as my son and wish him and lovely Kate - or Catherine is better as Kate reminds me Shakespeare's Shrew a little- all the best! Have a festive weekend, hugs, Miria
What a beautiful dress just perfect. I sat and watched with some friends needless to say we toasted the couple quite a few time lol. I watched the television this morning and saw the cake!!!! WoW! That was really Stunning.

No I can't believe I sat and watched his parents get married too!
It was certainly an impressive day - the dress was gorgeous and I've never seen so many hats!!
Definitely an occasion to remember.

Elaine is really generous with her candy isn't she? I watched the wedding doing the ironing yesterday, wasn't it lovely, very un-pompous.
Hope you are having a fabby wekend ... the girls and hubby are off camping so I have a long date with my craft room and some stamps ... I intend to get very inky!!

It was a glorious wedding Karen, I had a little tear in my eye because like you I watched his Mum's wedding. She would have been so proud of him and I'm sure she would have loved Catherine. We watched it with your Grandchildren, had tea and cake to celebrate.
Hugs

Hiya Karen,
Oh the Dress was so beautiful as was kate!
OMG 30 years ago, It does not seem that long ago that Charles & Diana were married!
Well I watched bits & parts of the Wedding while watch a Craft show & colouring Sassy Girls - had a multi task day!?
That is a lovely piccy you chose for this post - Kate was so elegant!
Did you see the little Flower girl holding her ears on the BALCONY hee hee!
Hope you are all having a great Holiday week end!
Take care
Big Hugs

Well i am not British, but i am sure like myself those of us around the world who watched Lady Di get married had to watch her sons wedding. I had to POP in to the shops, yeah right! i stood near a HUGE tv screen and took around four hours to the shops and back that would normally take half hour. Love this pic of the happy couple, TFS

hi Karen, we didn't have any street parties where I live but i did enjoy watching them get married and like you I can remember watching Diana and Charles getting wed (I was only 7) thinking she looked like a princess aww, It was strange as my daughter has just turned 6 and she watched it with me and she kept saying one day I'll be a princess like that lol aww bless enjoy the long weekend and your new sugar hugs Jill xx
wasnt she just the fairytale bride, absolutely gorgeous, and the boys or should I say young men where very handsome, sadly I do remember Diana wedding as I got married the same day and mine didnt work out either, but on a happier note I did it again and am married to the best man ever.
Chris x
So kind of you to share your goodies. I remember Diane and Charles Wedding my son was five months old and 'watched' it with me, while my late husband continue with his hobby instead. As my son married last week, it made it special to watch the wedding. Hugs Bee
it was indeed a fairytale wedding, hope you enjoy your saturday x
Yes it was a wonderful day and brought back many memories of his mothers wedding they both looked fab and relaxed for such a precious day. No street party here but was glued to the TV. Thanks for a chance to win the candy
Oh did I watch? I watched and cheered! :) Lovely wedding and lovely couple, wish them every happiness in the future! :)
The wedding was lovely, even if it was at 4 am this side of the pond! Kate, er, Catherine looked gorgeous in a dream of a dress. Wish them happily ever after.

Ooh yes please enter me into your candy. I was card making whilst watching the wedding on TV. A lovely relaxing Friday! xx Jenny xx
Hiya, hope you have a wonderful weekend, it is hard to believe how time flies as I too can remember watching Will's paprents wedding and sad to say I can even remeber what I was wearing well it was a dress I loved. Hope thier marriage will be happier and with far few traumas than his parents and may we be moving towards a new era!

It was a perfect day, the Bride looked every inch a Princess, it was all fabulous, I sat and watched the whole thing, by the time I stood up I could hardly walk...lol...and I too couldn't believe thirty years had passed since his parents wed...where did that go...xxxxx
Kate looked stunning - elegant, beautiful and demure. Such a perfect day, and I wish them all the happiness in the world! Hugs, Sem x PS Thanks for the chance to win some candy! :o)
Oh yes the wedding was breath taking. I sat and watched it but first had to get up at 4 am to watch it. But oh so worth it. I loved her dress and I know Diana would be so proud of her boys. Hugs
nice blog... visited here with a smile.. XD ~~
I didnt watch the wedding as it was my sons 15th birthday yesterday so spent the day with him playing games & just having a laugh. They do look beautiful together tho & I will them all the happiness & love in the world, love & happiness are soooooo important....here's to Wills & Kate xoxox
Lotsa hugs Vicky xxx
My cat wanted to watch the wedding - she woke me up at 4:00am cst. So, we watched together, both of us snuggled into my big fluffy robe. Lots of tradition there and awesome clothes; Fergie's girls were dressed rather strangely - did you see the hat that looked like reindeer antlers?
Watched every minute of the wedding - was glued to the telly. Such a happy couple and wonderful ceremony. Thanks for the chance for some candy - have everything crossed. Hugs Denise xx
I didn't watch the wedding live because in Canada, the wedding festivities started at 4am lol But I did watch the balcony scene live and then watched the highlights of the wedding afterwards.
Sometimes a little yummie from friends is just what the doctor orderded ! Enoy the gifts you have received. I saw a very nice couple getting married yesterday on tv. I hope they have a long, strong and loving marriage. Hugs, Marion
Like you, I thoroughly enjoyed the wedding, and can't believe that 30 years have disappeared since Charles wed Diana! How proud she'd have been of her boys yesterday!
Hope you have a GREAT weekend.
Judi x
it really was a super day x sue x
It was a lovely wedding, Kate looked absolutely stunning and Wills was very handsome as was his wee brother :-) When Kate was walking down the aisle with her Daddy, Becky, my almost 2 yr old daughter was dancing around the livingroom. I hadn't really planned to watch it, but am glad I did, such a really lovely day.
Enjoy the rest of the weekend!
hugs

I watched the ceremony after the fact, since I'm in Canada. It was truly lovely. And yes... seems odd to think it was 30 years ago that we watched his parents' marriage. They are a wonderful couple and I wish them every happiness in the coming years :) Enjoy your weekend too! P.
What a splendid day it was, I watched the whole thing from early morning to late afternoon and loved every bit of it. I also watched Charles and Diana's wedding 30 years ago and could not agree this was so much more, simply perfect.
Wishing them many long years together and welcoming the change to the monarchy.
Kim xXx
I remember that wedding as well as the ones in between although I only saw her arrive at the Abbey then took advantage of no one being in Tesco to stock up the cupboards :c) I did enjoy having an extra day off lol!
xx
I quite agree, it was a perfect day and I hope they enjoy a lifetime of happiness together. Wedding candy bag sounds fun. Carol x
I hope also for this lovely Royal couple a happy ever after...
I followed this beautiful wedding on the tv here in the netherlands!
We wish for them all the luck of the world!
(and let's give them a great private life too!)
Welmoed
I was lucky enough to have the day off, and I watched them exchange their vows with a little lump in my throat..sniff! Truly a fairy-tale to watch, especially when they drove off in the little car !!
I know have a long week-end off and a weeks hols to boot !!
More crafting time ..tee-hee.
I saw the wedding of his parents on the magazine cover when I was a little girl:) Yesterday it was online! So exciting - a fairytale come true!:)
It was lovely...she looked gorgeous...my fave bit was when they left the palace together in the Astin Martin...they just looked so happy and like a normal couple in love!
It was a wonderful wedding wasn't it. We had a fab party to celebrate and today I am meant to be tidying up! LOL Thanks for the opportunity to win a candy bag! :)
You have summed the Wedding up perfectly. It was wonderful. I am in Canada and got up at 3 am to watch the whole thing!
Hugs Jeanette
Hi
I had a great day watching the wedding. I thought she looked absolutely magnificant. Whata stunning dress. Both her sister and her Mother looked amazing as well. Oh how I wanted to be 28 again and full of hope instead of 45 and full of aches and pains!!
My Gorjuss Stamps arrived this morning so off to play!!
Have agreat day.
I watched it on TV - so beautiful! Have a great weekend!
They make a fabulous couple, hope they will be forever happy like hubby and me. Hugs Linda x
The wedding was pure magical..and such a gorgeous, loving couple too..I loved every moment of it!
thanks Karen for the chance to win your candy..hugs Vicky xx
I loved every minute of it Karen, just a shame his mother couldn't have been there to see her boy marry! Thanks for the chance to win some candy x
It was a lovely wedding wasn't it. Kate was beautiful and her dress was stunning. I can remember the previous wedding very clearly too. Hard to believe it was 30 years ago!
Kat x
I totally agree. The wedding was wonderful. Although there was all the pomp and circumstance of a royal wedding, the thing that really stood out for me was how happy and in love they both were. Just perfect. Hugs, Marie xx
the royal wedding was fantastic.i was at work so missed it but did see a rerun and i loved the modern touch to their wedding.i loved the car with balloons trailing behind.it was perfect :D
xx coops xx
It was a beautiful wedding, and I watched the entire ceremony. Being home alone during such a day was great! :D
I work in a nursing home so I watched the wedding there while working and you are right those words sum it up totally. The dresses were so beautiful without being over the top. Let's hope they have a long and happy life together.
Hugs Christine x
I wasn't going to watch the Royal Wedding - but found myself sucked in - and really enjoyed it.
The wedding was really lovely. Thought William was really smart and Kate was gorgeous. Diana would have been so proud of him. They make a lovely couple. Donna
I sat and bubbled at the telly for most of the day watching the wedding - am not a Royalist by any stretch of the imagination but I watched his mother and father get married 30 years ago like you and I had to watch our future king and queen get married yesterday too. So sad his mother wasn't there to see him get wed though, she would've been so proud of both her boys - think that's why I kept bubbling actually

I watched with my husband and have to agree with you- perfect. I too watched 30 years ago- I feel old! Had to laugh at my son though, he was at a Sports Camp day and his only grumble about the day was that he went there to get away from the wedding but they put the telly on at lunchtime!
Yes I like you... first watched Willam's Parents wed,I Got up early both times I am a fairy tale romance follower...Best wishes for the new Couple wishing their fairy tale will last for ever...It was a wonderest Wedding..
Oh, am I first?
I'm not a huge Royal Fan but loved how they managed to stamp their own thing on the State Wedding - the Dress was fab, loved the trees and the car.
I wish the new Princess Happy Ever After.
Shouldn't be up this late but I've been playing with my new Gorjuss Stamps.
Thanks Funkey Kits
How adorable. Best wishes to the couple.
The royal wedding of Prince William and Kate was elegant. Love Kate's dress, she is beautiful. I watched it on tv.
Unfortunately I missed the biggest part of the wedding, 'cause I had to work. But when I came home I immediately turned on the tele and could see them drive to Buckingham Palace. They looked wonderful! Sunny greetings from Belgium, Annelies
I can't believe it has been 30 years for me either. I can NOT be that old! lol! I absolutely loved it. She looked stunning and they BOTH looked so genuinely happy. It made me all weepy to see.
Oh didn't they look wonderful and so in love!!
no parties for me my son had his driving test we then spent forever trying to find cheap car insurance let me tell you it wasn't cheap!!
definitely no wedding day discounts for new drivers! lol
Suzie Qx
I sat and watched the wedding all day, a perfect day and the picture sums up the happy ever after, we all wish them.
enjoy your bank holiday Karen
Tilly
Oh it was the most gorgeous bride and groom, My sweet boss brought her laptop so we could watch the wedding when ever we had a couple of minutes..:)
I watched the wedding as I got ready for work. Here in the USA, it was quite early:)
Robin
I sat and wtached this wonderful event on TV. You could see that this couple is so much in love and I wish them all the best!
Karen
It's was a great show :o) and soooo many people on the way to the Buckingham Palace *wow*.
Being #1 is probably not going to get me a wedding bag but how very cool. First to get something from you and to have it be a wedding bag is so special. I too remember watching his parents wedding. Weren't both ladies spectacular looking?
I got my Gorjuss stamps yesterday, thank you so much for all your efforts in getting them to us, sorry it was such hard work for you & I fully understand your reluctance to offer pre-orders again. I have always ordered with confidence from you & long may it continue :D Loved the wedding & dress, ate too much at BBQ & thoroughly enjoyed the day :D x
I watched the wedding here in Canada...my hubby was up at 2 am, but I got up later...at 5:30 am and saw the last prayer, and walk down the aisle...I caught the ceremony later. No holiday here, I had to go to work:(
Thanks so much for offering some candy, I follow your blog by email!
Aww it was a special day, one that dreams are made off, hugs pops x
oh my gosh - it was a beautiful wedding :) I think people all over the world enjoyed watching it, as I did, in Norway :)
Wow - 30 years, didn't realise it was that long.
Hope they will be happy :-)
Gosh I had the most wonderful day on Friday... on the settee at 8am watching the preparations ready for the wedding the service...and didnt move until after the balcony kiss. My lovely husband brought me my breakfast, dinner and endless cups of tea and then he even joined in with my conversations about dresses, hats etc etc (LOL), he was soon 'all wedding out'. Then at 3pm we dressed up in our 'best clothes' and headed off to our family 'Royal Garden Party', where we had a marvelous time with our family... a day I will always remember with fondness xxxx
Hi Karen,
I thoroughly enjoyed my day... I set my alarm to be up good and early and sat glued to the TV taking in all the fashion and spotting celebrities etc. My mum & best friend called in around 12noon and brought lunch with them, so we didn't need to miss anything!!
William looked so handsome and Kate was breath takingly stunning- so elegant- they both look a perfect match and I pray in this day of very short marriages that theirs will endure the test of time.
God Bless them both,
Trish x
Karen, I cannot believe nobody left you a comment so far - must be the lovely weather or hangover from street parties!! Loved the wedding and like you I couldn't believe the time since his parents - she would have been so proud of him, Sheila:)X
Super words to add up a wonderful day, What a gorgeous couple they make :)) Time certainly flies doesn't it... I hate to admit I even saw the Queen's wedding, we had the whole street in as we were the only ones with a TV..all 11" square of it.....lol I felt ever so Posh when I went back to school xx
