On 29th April, 2011, there was a very special event the wedding of Prince
William and Catherine Kate Middleton. There were hundreds of millions of
people around the world in front of their TVs and computers. They were all
ready to watch the exciting celebrations. The streets of London were also
crowded with over a million people.
The wedding planner for the big day was Lady Elizabeth Anson. Lady Elizabeth
often plans parties for celebrities, so the results werent surprising. It was a huge
success! The wedding was at Westminster Abbey in London and there were
many important people from all over the world. Kate, in a long white dress, was
beautiful. After the wedding, there was a lunch at Buckingham Palace. In the
evening, there was a party for the family and friends. First, there was a dinner
with traditional British food and delicious desserts including ice cream and tiny
cakes. There were also two types of wedding cake fruit and chocolate. After
the tasty meal, there was dancing until 3.00 in the morning.
Weddings of kings, queens, princes and princesses sometimes start new
