Saw on TOB that there was a question on their OT threads about the Royal Wedding and asking if anyone was going to watch... So, I thought I'd steal that question and post it here. :teehee:

I, personally, CAN'T watch it as we do not get tv out in the boonies where I am ( :lonely: ), but if I DID have tv I likely would try to catch it for the historical aspects and because I lived over there and have been/seen lots of things in relation to the British and the Dutch royal goings-on, etc. :woot:

I did see Diana's wedding (not the entire thing, but most all of it) and so it would be kind of neat to see her son marry (and hope HIS marriage is MUCH better than his mom's! :rolleyes: ).

So, what about you guys? :huh:

I will watch! I have distinct memories of Diana. I was just married and loved her! More distinct is the day she died! Can't wait to see the dress!

I will watch the highlights I'm sure.....as we won't be able to GET AWAY FROM IT....

I do think that Prince William USED to be the good looking one and Harry was ???? but NOW they seem to have switched placed....I think Prince William looks more and more like his father now-a-days...

I do love the dresses though....

Ain't that the truth. I used to have a total crush on William, he was a hottie as a teen. But now daddy's genes have overtaken mommy's and well...yeah...

I have the DVR set for the wedding coverage already since I doubt I'll be awake for it. I'm curious to watch it just to see all the pomp and circumstance. Plus I want to see Kate's dress.

I'll certainly watch - but maybe on the news later ;)
I hope Charles gives up his spot (yeah right) and let's his son be King.
Camilla irritates me.

Curious about TOB... how is the royal wedding horse related? :o :teehee:

Harry is the cutie. I will probably have to watch part of it. I wonder what will happen to Kate? Seems like the Royals are as dysfunctional as any family.

Count me in!! I watched Diana's wedding from Seattle and I find it all sort of cool and historic. :) Are they going to broadcast live again? I seem to recall Diana's being on in the middle of the night in Seattle, they're what seven or so hours ahead?

For a girl like myself who I consider quite, down-to-earth and simple, i LOVE wedding dresses. Seriously. LOVE. IT. ALL!!!! :)

I love the horses, the carriages, the harness, the polishing and the look of the coachmen. The royals? meh.

I love the carriage horses at Arlington too. The history, the honor.

I know absolutely that I'll not be watching - I will be camping with our horses!!

I can catch it all later.

Kate is arriving in a Rolls, so I heard. I can't imagine the security! The carriages, though they are lovely and traditional, don't allow for much safety.
I hope they have wonderful lives together. Princess Catherine will be a delightful change!

I will watch for sure! Love the fairy tale even though the reality is probably full of drama and dysfunction!

Can you imagine the conversation Kate must have had with her parents or friends when she and William started dating? How crazy must it have been to tell them you are dating the future King of England, not being royal yourself.

I want to watch it. Does anyone know if it will be live screened over the internet? I think I will be at work, I remember Diana's wedding being during the day. I would love to have it in the corner of my computer as I work.

I like both William and Harry, and Kate is a beautiful girl. I truly hope they are very happy. I think William does "protect" her a bit from the media, he does know what it did to his mother. I also still think William is a handsome man.

I often wonder if Queen Elizabeth has reigned as long as she has trying to figure out how to by pass Charles. He is a bit of a dweeb. :teehee: I think William would be a much better King. He is more popular too. That is a strong factor.

Ok I have a question on something I read this week. I thought, when Charles married Camilla, there was a condition that when Charles becomes King, Camilla can never be Queen. Am I imagining things? The article I read said, that 'when Camilla becomes Queen', it was an American article so I don't know they had their facts straight. There was a lot of conditions about Charles marrying Camilla.

Who doesn't like a wedding and a Royal one with all the pomp and circumstance is truly fun.
