Prince William and Kate Middleton Set Wedding Date and Location

by POPSUGAR Fashion News 0

>> Prince William and Kate Middleton will marry April 29, 2011 in Westminster Abbey, where Princess Diana's funeral was held (William's parents were married at St. Paul's Cathedral). Royal officials said the venue was chosen for its beauty, intimacy, and historic royal connections, and the date because the couple wanted a Spring wedding; the government has already announced the date a public holiday in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, and Scotland is expected to follow suit. The royal family and the Middletons are expected to cover the wedding, reception, and honeymoon costs, apart from security. [NYTimes]
