Best Wedding Ever!! (Until mine of course)

"The early bird gets the worm" as they say or at least a good spot in front of the TV. Natalie, Claire, and I headed to Hyde Park at 6:30 to start the wedding festivities! We set up camp, ate some croissants with nutella, and bought our souvenir programs and flags. The morning was a little chilly, but began to warm up around 11 when the wedding started. The crowd really started growing around 9:30 or so. And in the end there were around 120,000 people enjoying the wedding at Hyde park. We had a blast and felt a part of the wedding the entire time.


Natalie, Me, and Claire waiting for the coverage to start. It didn't stay this empty for long.

The guests arriving.... Wish they would've showed them longer! David looked amazing :)

 The crowds beginning to gather

William arriving at the church.

and Harry! Everyone cheered loudly for him all day long :)

And of course the Queen! Everyone stood up and cheered loudly for her arrival.

Getting excited for Kate's arrival!

She looked beautiful and did a wonderful job. I can't imagine how stressful the service was for her.


Celebratory confetti and of course our Union Jacks!


The famous balcony appearance of the newlyweds.

The Flyover. It came right over our heads just as if we were there! (although Hyde Park isn't that far from the palace)

Enjoying the live music and celebration in the park afterwards. Of course we already finished our champagne and had moved on to the wine!
Overall it was a great morning/afternoon. We left with some souvenirs and had a great party. The sun even came out a little and warmed up the day. The rest of the night and the next day were a little anti-climactic, but attending the wedding was some of the best fun I've had in London! Maybe I can convince Harry to marry me :)
