I can't believe that
there's been a whole year since the biggest royal event of our lifetime!
...Well the biggest one for those of us that weren't around when Charles and
Diana tied the knot anyway. It was a
definite "where were you when…" kind of day, so on that note... where
were you when the biggest wedding of the year (not including my own of course!)
was taking place?
I was at my best
friend, Fiona's house and we had a fab day. Up early to get the best front row
seats (on her sofa) a lovely breakfast, and an endless supply of tea and
biscuits. We were glued to every moment. We gasped when the princes first left
for the wedding, sat on the edge of our seats and held our breath waiting for
Kate to appear then gasped even louder when she emerged wearing THAT
dress. The dress was just perfect and
truly escalated both Kate and Sarah Burton to superstardom the world over.
A few of my friends
were lucky enough to be in London on the day and were able to soak up the
atmosphere of the event first hand. One of them brought me back this official
programme of the day (why didn't I think of having official programmes on my
wedding day?!) and commemorative keyring….which my mechanic insists on laughing
at every time I take my car into him. Charming!
Personally I think
the day should be a national holiday, it's not everyday a princess is born (I
would so not have been happy with the duchess title if it was me!) So until
then I'll just have a wee cuppa to toast their anniversary....in my Kate and Wills teacup and saucer of course!
