I think you may have nailed it when you said that because the monarchy is so far removed from the American lifestyle, it kind of feels like all of that is taking place in a fairy-tale story. Who wouldn't want to see the prince kiss his beautiful bride at the end of the story? ;)Jennifer M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04962587342835841240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6949315742598489928.post-76301155392286591262011-04-19T02:06:04.433-05:002011-04-19T02:06:04.433-05:00I think the only thing I find fascinating is what ...I think the only thing I find fascinating is what you already said, because royalty is such a crazy thing to think about for Americans.. it's fascinating.

We had tea and scones, she had curled my long hair and we sighed at the sight of Diana's wrinkled train.

I was getting so fed up with it and really didn't care. I did watch some of it on TV, just to see her dress and the procession through Stockholm city:) And the bridal waltz was some of the most beautiful I've seen on telly. However, I thought the soccer world cup was much more important:) <br />A lady in my prayer group had a good point though: isn't it better that people get involved in such things, instead of the usualy immoral violent stuff on TV? I liked that.Susihttp://www.susisinead.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6949315742598489928.post-40355008195017503622011-04-18T08:32:20.719-05:002011-04-18T08:32:20.719-05:00It is pretty much a fantasy however I look at it. ...It is pretty much a fantasy however I look at it. Beautiful dresses, Marrying a prince and later on being named a princess. <br /><br />Of course , it is only for privileged. I think the expensive weddings are for people who afford it and people have reputations like royalty or President's daughter. It is just ridiculous when normal people wants to have extravagant wedding with a lot of debts surround after wedding.<br /><br />I prefer my own wedding to be as simple as it can. ^_^Shareenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03155914158294514586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6949315742598489928.post-5981570966521027892011-04-18T08:18:40.064-05:002011-04-18T08:18:40.064-05:00Honestly the whole wedding thing is silly - wearin...Honestly the whole wedding thing is silly - wearing an expensive dress, the rings, and all that? It's all pretty ridiculous. I see no relevance in dresses or jewelry because it's not there to be efficient, or to be useful... just decorative, and I'm morally opposed to anything that values fashion over function.<br /><br />At the end of the day - who cares what ANY wedding dress should look like? Why should we care what two mediocre people are doing across the ocean? <br /><br />The entire wedding industry's a crock to me, and I've been happily married for a long time without any of that none sense. It's consumerism at it's worst, to me. I can't stand it.<br /><br />It's not just Prince William and soon to be Princess Kate... it's ANY wedding buzz, including the Chelsea Clinton's, or any celebutante.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
