It’s the million dollar question: What will Kate Middleton wear to wed Prince William? Her dress has remained a well-guarded secret, and chances are we won’t have any clues as to her gown’s design until tomorrow. But while we anxiously await Kate’s grand entrance, let’s daydream about what her dress might look like, shall we? We’ve seen royal wedding-inspiration for the [...]

We’ve seen delicious ideas for the royal reception menu, but, of course, no reception is complete without a cake. We know that Wills and Kate will be serving a traditional brandy-flavored fruit cake on Friday’s luncheon, which, according to British-born, Salt Lake City-based pastry chef Martin Perham of Martin’s Fine Desserts, are actually quite delicious. Prince William also requested [...]

Now that we’ve seen gorgeous inspiration for the Royal Wedding repection decor, it’s time to focus on the food and drink–what do you serve 600 hungry Royal Wedding guests? The menu for the reception at Buckingham Palace is said to include hand-passed hors d’oeuvres and canapes.

What blooms will Ms. Middleton carry as she makes her way down the loooong red-carpeted aisle at Westminster Abbey during the Royal Wedding on Friday? When Princess Diana wed Prince Charles in 1981 she carried a cascading bouquet of gardenias, orchids, lily of the valley, roses, freesia and myrtle, weighing nearly 7 pounds! (Fun fact: Apparently it’s tradition for [...]
