One shouldn't wear dark/black to a wedding.  However, Victorians did, black silk and netting .......... they started the C.mas tree too ........ :-\

If we go out somewhere posh I try to find lilac or maroon as the basis of my outfit with cream jacket and shoes.  Not long having seen a photo of me looking really frumpy when I felt really good  :'(

Oh Salad - were you nervous?  Was it very hot?  Did U get on the TV ..........


More nervous about getting there on time  :)
There were about 150 of us. so you feel well supported in covering mistakes and our amazing leaders guide us through the songs so well. It did get really hot but it was worth the prime view to persevere.
We were covered by news teams from America, Canada. Germany and Norway - no British coverage but I'm not really a camera person  ;D
Plus I got to see Phillip Schofield so that made my day!

all different Xmas lights.

I did jillydoll, I enjoy seeing him on This Morning when he has the laughing fits - my Schofe sighting was brief, as he went past us in the High Street on one of the buggies, so my friends only saw the back of his head  :D

Yeah, like it when he starts laffing, but he also asks the right questions too.

He doesn't need to do that clkd, but it's more money isn't it.....
Stupid advert anyway, lol

The wedding was screened at our village hall which gave a wonderful atmosphere followed by the village children doing Maypole dancing on the green - all such fun.
A magical Wedding - Meghan carried it off with such poise and charm. Loved the music and the modern twists to the service.

I also thought Prince Charles did a wonderful job of looking after the brides mother - it must have been so tough for her all on her own and he was so warm and charming with her.

Diana would've been so proud of her boys. DG x

I watched most of it and was so happy for them both. I thought Meghan's mother was dignified and regal and both bride and groom have been raised byl mothers I admire.
Saddens me that people have been so negative both before and after the wedding.

Meghan isn't the first divorcee to marry into the Royal family #Camilla.

I wish them the best of luck. Let the haters choke on their own bile.

I didn't see nor hear any of it, either as it was happening nor on the news later - except at around 12.40 pm when I turned on the radio only to be greeted by 20 secs of silence on the radio  and then a voice "Those whom God hath joined together..." at which point I turned it off and went back to gardening in a blissfully sunny and quiet village with no noise from mowing, or strimmers! They pealed the bells in the village - not sure if that was for them or coincidentally another wedding...

Loved the Wedding too, anyone who missed it by choice or not,  passed by an uplifting and happy occasion. I think millions of people thought the same.

It was beautiful, tasteful, and Megan is stunning! Harry is a lucky man.

Prince Charles showed great kindness and consideration to Megan's mother who must have found it all a little overwhelming.

Looking forward to sometime in the future, seeing their children, they I am sure going to be gorgeous.

With so many young couples just living together, this goes some way to promoting the idea of marriage.

Same for me I missed it too as we are five hours behind over here in the States and to be honest I was'nt much into the whole thing. Things have changed so much over the years with the Royals I have mixed feelings about this one but only time will tell.

I wasn't into it until 11.40 when I decided that I would rather watch it 'live' than see it on the evening News  ;D and thoroughly enjoyed the whole day.
