As a hospitality student who is intending on becoming an event/wedding planner later in life, following the royal wedding is not just exciting to me it is part of my homework. This is going to be an amazing event that the entire world will tune in to, but for those that are wanting to become part of the weddings industry this is research. The venue, the dress, the traditions that will be followed are all under the microscope. It is great that Prince William chose to have the wedding in Westminster Abbey and not St. Paul's Cathedral where his parents were married in 1981. Westminster Abbey is where Queen Elizabeth II was married and where her coronation took place, it is also where many royals are laid to rest, in fact that is where Princess Diana's funeral was.
It is wonderful to see that this not only something for the couple to plan but the entire country will participate. This is going to made a national holiday because that is how important it truly is. It is said that the wedding dress will be designed by a British dress maker, but no one has been chosen just yet. All of the memorabilia will be designed and sold from local people. I truly believe that the country will accept Catherine as their new Princess and some day as their Queen, she is in fact one of them.
There is still a lot of information that is going around since they officially announced their engagement, but it is all kind of the same thing. I am waiting for the new information, such as what type of memorabilia will be made for the joyous occasion. So far the only thing that has been said is that tea towels will not be part of the official memorbilia.
This may have been a random post, but the next one will be better. I will try to find some good pictures for you all.
