Unfortunately Will and Kate forgot to send Emily and I our invitation to the wedding. It wasn't a big deal though because we decided to throw our own party! We knew that the Happy Couple had requested everyone wear hats to the big event so we made our own...
Mine featured the Royal Love Birds. The tag says "she was beautiful" because Emily and I still don't understand how Will got a hottie like that. I know he is a prince and rich, but he isn't THAT rich. Emily says "He doesn't look that bad when he is moving... Really fast...."
Emily's hat had a bunch of netting coming off of the back of a white, sparkly, tophat. A plastic Bride and Groom were attached to a spring and fastened to the front. The effect was quite breathtaking.
We woke up at 4 AM, so that we could watch the wedding live before I had to leave for work. We had made berries, cream and scones the night before which we ate for breakfast with tea. Well, I started off with tea, but when the full realization of waking up at 4 AM sunk in I switched to a giant mug of coffee!
But it was OK, even the Queen needs her coffee now and then....
WOOT!
Watching the wedding was really fun. Emily and I were overtired and hyped up on caffeine and sugar, so we put the TV on mute and made up conversations that the wedding guests were having.
Kate's gown was beautiful, Will had big ears, the Queen was old, and there were lots of British accents. Well worth waking up early for.
Except for commercials... I hate commercials....
