Earl Spencer has a front row seat. Not too shabby.

Prince Albert of Monaco’s fiancee is very beautiful. Stinks for her, because this completely overshadows her own wedding.

[Oztrich Boy]

I dig Harry....I love his red hair....Wonder if he’s really Charles’s son....He doesn’t resemble any of them

Check Royal Wedding of Prince William of Wales and Katerine Middleton, April 29th, 2011 11am GMT (5am EDT)

He resembles his grandfather, Prince Phillip, when he was Harry's age.

BBC reports the bride’s mother is wearing a sky blue wool crepe dress today.

Hi hoosiermama!

Anyone have a pic of Prince William in his red uniform?

[maggief]

Gorgeous!

Vera Wang compared it to the Duchess Horseface of Tampon wedding dress. NOT!

[MayflowerMadam]

Wils has called Carle and Michael “mom and dad” for years. Said he loves being with them...... Wonder if he even calls his father dad?

[NautiNurse]

Carol Middleton looks stunning. Duchess Horseface will be cantoring in shortly.

[StarFan]

Discussing the bride's mother Carol now on ABC and how she always pushed her daughters toward the Royals. Believe she came from a coal mining family and began a thriving business which made it easier to be around them. No mention what the Dad does. She is quite an attractive, young mother and her girls appear very close to her.

Prince Andrew and daughters arriving now. Poor Fergie sitting at home.

[MomofMarine]

Lady Mary Louise DickieBird of St. Clair has been here since 4AM. Don’t know why I have to watch on TV since I am a Middleton! My invite must have been lost in the mail.

[maggief]

[MayflowerMadam]

“Poor Fergie sitting at home.”

Considering her friendship with the groom’s mother, you’d think they’d be gracious and invite her.
