Best wishes, Will & Kate.

The pomp and circumstance blended well with the simple service and the guests added the final touch. Excellent work, Good wishes to the bridal couple from Scots in Canada.

I set him up with paints and kokis and when he got bored with drawing and painting himself I helped whilst watching the wedding and breastfeeding my newborn. It was wonderful to be a part of such a historic and grand occassion. Loved all the pomp, elegance and grandeur! What a feeling!:)) Thanks for such a great coverage of a wonderful wedding.

I see the royal family as the caretakers of the wonderful British history and values of human rights and respect for each individual. I am very grateful to William and Kate for letting me be a witness to such a wonderful celebration of love and human dignity. You are so important to all the world as symbols of what is good in every human being. You bring joy and a desire to go out and make people happy and try to help others who need help. You have a most important role and a fantastic opportunity to make this a better world for all of us. I am so grateful to you; you have enriched my life, I thank you from my heart!

Only in Britain can we have a fabulous feelgood day and 24 hrs later pick it pieces and dissect to such a degree we destroy everyones happiness. There were "black" faces, there were ordinary people at the wedding and just think---if you were getting married; How many people of different race, colour or creed would be at yours. WE LOVED IT. Our American friends do not understand why we do this, they are still celebrating.

So I woke up at 4 am Eastern Daylight Time channel surfing the morning shows to find most of the American network anchors slowing getting drunk on various libations the Brits brought to show how they (you) party.
But what really fascinated me were the cars. I was surprised that the Queen and Prince Phillip, and Charles and Camelia, arrived in separate Bentleys, which is the royal equivalent of slumming it, I guess. William and Kate rated separate Rolls-Royces. All followed closely by security in battleship grey Land Rovers. And, for the sake of variety, David Cameron and wife Samantha showed up in the back of a Jaguar.
You Brits wanted an all-Brit event, even down to an all-Brit collection of hyper-expensive automobiles ... except for that one foreign car with the Ford badge in Middleton's caravan. Yup, it slipped through somehow in the live feeds. I'm guessing that it carried Mrs. Cambridge's trousseau for later change-ups. The Ford even started in the bride's wedding van on the way to Westminster, but descreetly got out of the way for the wide shot down Grosvenor.
What I'd like the know, who does the Ford belong to? Kate drives a Land Rover too. So I'm guessing it's Kate's mom's.
PS. Mom had me tape the wedding of Prince Charles and Diana Spenser's wedding. But haven't gotten around to watch it yet. How did that work out for them by the way?

A charming, radiant couple resplendent in their attire and who never put a step wrong in front of the adoring crowds.

I do look forward to seeing close-ups of the bridal gown as the small taste of that wonderful workmanship was too little! It's also a treat to see such huge crowds having such fun and being so moved. God bless them!
