President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle have not been invited to Prince William and Kate Middletons wedding.
The Queen personally invited 40 heads of state, who received the gold-embossed invitations over the weekend to the April 29 wedding of the future king.
The Obamas, however, were not among them.
But they can take solace in the knowledge that they will be the guests of their very own state visit to the UK in May.
There have been suggestions that the state visit the first for a US President since 2003 was set up in return for Obama not coming to the wedding because of the added security costs involved with protecting the President.
French Prime Minister Nicolas Sarkozy and his wife Carla Bruni will also miss out and Prince Andrews former wife, Sarah Ferguson the Duchess of York has also been snubbed.

Happy to see we’ve recovered the respect of the rest of the world that we lost when Bush was President.
Glad to see that they are not going to invite them “in the name of civility”.
Barky hates the English. He’s a anti-colonialist at heart.
Barky, like all democRats, will appease all of America’s enemies while attacking all her allies.
As a Jacobite, I have had scant regard for the Hannoverian dynasty.
Until now.
God save the Queen of England.
O’bama I understand, because of “added security costs involved with protecting the President”, and because he’s a first-class ^&!$D(H!!! who has spit on Britain every chance he got.
But why Sarkozy?
Why in the world would they leave Sarah Ferguson out...mystifying.
Zero will get a video of the wedding.
I’m a Jacobite, too. But this Queen has done a great job.
damaged the whole royal family when she was caught selling access to other members of the Windsors.

Good on the Brits!!! I'm glad they dissed the usurper and his wife. Sorry to see that he's the face of our country that the world sees. At least the UK freepers realize how much Mr & Mrs Soetoro are despised by a growing segment of this country.
Im a Jacobite, too. But this Queen has done a great job.

She has. During years when Britain was more threatened than any time since before the Armada.
moochelle is 2 ugly to attend this wedding.
:)

The Queen got a stomach full from the iPod loaded with Obama’s speeches.
“We will have an orchestra, not a DVD player...”
The queen doesn't like trailer trash!!
This is just part two of Obama's shabby treatmeent of our British allies since his election. What goes is around is now coming around!!!
Love it, God bless Queen Bess!
