today, prince william and catherine middleton were married at westminster abbey!
a couple of my dear friends and i had a royal wedding party, complete with pimms, union flag trifle and patriotic cupcakes!
it was a wonderful event to watch (albeit on tv rather than in person!) and i wish the very best to the royal couple! i don't think william could have chosen a better wife. they seem to be truly in love, which can sometimes be rare! her dress was beautiful and they both looked very happy-it was such a wonderful opportunity for the country to celebrate together at a time when there can be little celebration and much conflict, in many places around the world. watching the service and seeing old traditions carried on made me remember why people in this country-myself included-are proud to be British.
congratulations to the newlyweds-and i hope anyone who reads this is safe and well.
