That sounds so fun! I love the idea of dressing up and wearing tiaras. : ) I can't wait to watch on my DVR as well. By the way, I just love the term champers-and-nibbles! I never hear that in Tennessee!

[quote=""rockygirl""]Found the cookbook for a steal on Amazon. Thanks for the suggestion![/quote]

You're very welcome. I found my copy and chuckled over the Shepard's pie recipe -- evidently that's to be served at the reception/dinner, as it is the prince's favourite dish!

Oh and could you please pm me your address or mail drop -- I have a very amusing card to send to you that I think you would appreciate.

People Magazine has a recipe that is supposedly one of Kate's favorites. Sticky Toffee Pudding.

[quote=""Telynor""]How about a full up English tea, with all of the trimmings? I'd suggest the book, Eating Royally, for some ideas on some 'royal' recipes. Games could be something like Spot the Royal, while you're watching, with a checklist or something with the person getting the most right winning some sort of prize.

That's too bad about not being able to watch it live, but hey, that's what the dvr is for...[/quote]

I love the book! It arrived yesterday, and it's a gorgeous book, as you know.

My DH is a lego builder, and someone sent him this link. Thought you all would enjoy the first wedding 'pictures'.
