I'll be honest, I did look at her dress, etc., but no way was I getting up to watch it. And for those who were asking about cost, $34 million. Here's the breakdown: * Security: $32 million. The British taxpayers are on the hook for this. Thousands of police officers will be stationed along the bridal procession route and military personnel will also be protecting visiting foreign royals and dignitaries. * Wedding Ring: $11,000. Prince William opened up his own wallet to buy Kate a simple but elegant gold band. Of course he didn't have to fork out for an engagement ring. He gave Kate the one worn by his late mother, Princess Diana. It is now valued at $1 million. * Receptions: $600,000. The Queen is hosting a luncheon reception immediately after the wedding for 600 of the estimated 1,900 who will attend the ceremony. A lucky 300 guests have been invited to the dinner reception hosted by the father of the groom. * Wedding Gown: $434,000. Kate's parents are paying for her gown, reportedly designed by Sophie Cranston, plus additional outfits she'll wear to the receptions. * Wedding Cake: $80,000. Prince Charles is writing the check for the two cakes -- traditional cream for Kate and white fruit cake for William. That works out to $134 per slice! * Flowers: $800,000. The Queen and Prince Charles are sharing the tab to adorn Westminster Abbey and Buckingham Palace. * Cleaning: $64,000. The British taxpayers get to pay for cleaning up after the one million people who are expected to come out and witness the big day.
At least Kate is hot. Princess Di'd looked like a horse. And her sister, holy shit. I'd give her some spotted dick. (she's the middle one)
So is anyone else a little confused by this? Diana's dress cost 9,000 pounds in its day, and that dress was awful and gaudy and though tasteless you could tell where the money went. How in the fuck did this one cause 434K? Was it lined in gold? Does it come with complimentary escorts? Are those "additional outfits" she's wearing to receptions also come with escorts and cars and blowjobs and more gold? Is she wearing a few dozen different outfits? Jesus.
These fucking Royals are living way too long and I'm starting to get a little suspicious. The Queen's mother, dying in 2002 was 102 years old. The Queen is 85 and going strong. Prince Philip is 90. Who knows what manner of Freemasonry Occult type shenanigans these people have been involved with.
I've gotta say I utterly hate the royal family. Becuase of it, I don't think I could ever have a career in the military or police as you have to take an oath to the Queen. The south of Ireland has it's own military but I think they had a recruitment target of 8 for this year, says it all.
That's alright, I heard the feeling is mutual. Wills and Harry looked positively spiffy, I bet both their dads are proud.
So nevermind the dress, rumour has it that some Middle Eastern royal family has bought William one of these as a wedding gift: Not sure if I'd rather have the bike or the woman.
