Want a piece of the history?
After years of dating and many speculations of proposal, Prince William popped the question in October 2010 and announced it to the world in November 2010. According to the Wall Street Journal, the wedding is expected to have a predicted two billion TV viewers, but that’s not all. An expected 400 million will watch as it’s streamed online and through the radio, in addition to around 800,000 observers who will likely be standing around Buckingham palace in hopes of catching a glimpse of the couple on their special day.
While it may be a little late to order tickets and join the crowds of well wishers, there will be plenty of souvenirs available with the click of a mouse. Whether searching Ebay for the replica engagement ring, a coffee mug with the couple’s likeness on it, or their very own dolls, you can be sure that these items will hold great value down the road.
Plan your own Royal Wedding Party
Invite your friends to attend your very own ‘Royal Wedding Party’ in your humble abode. Suggest that guests who plan on attending try to get to sleep around 9 p.m. the night before (nobody wants a grouch). Invite guests to arrive a little before 5 a.m. and make sure the channel is set and distractions are a minimum.
You’ll want to have food and drinks for everyone, so grab some breakfast treats, perhaps a scone, a coffee, and for those seeking a little kick, try the classy yet delicious mimosa- just champagne and orange juice!
Remember- just because you weren’t invited, doesn’t mean you didn’t attend!
