This Friday is the Royal Wedding of Prince William and Catherine Middleton.  As a wedding planner, I have been following the story, like most of the world.  In fact, I just heard that the “walk down the aisle” for Kate and her father is a four minute walk!  I am thinking back through my brides wondering who would have been up for such a trek. 

The ceremony will be held at Westminster Abbey and the reception at Buckingham Palace hosted by Her Majesty the Queen.  I can’t help but giggle and feel rather school-girlish at the idea of this spectacular affair, what we all hope will be a fairy tale come true

Anyway, NBC is starting the coverage at 4am EST with the wedding beginning at 6AM EST.  Will you be watching it?  I will!  I will be up before dawn, making a memory along with the rest of the watching world and appreciating something happy on the news for a change.  Oh, and my mom and I will be enjoying Chocolate Chip Caramel Scones accompanied by Peach Melba Tea.  One lump or two?
