I just had to.

I vaguely remember watching Lady Diana Spencer become the Princess of Wales.  I was only 5, but no one could forget the images of that day.  Unfortunately for my parents, this triggered my passion for all things royal.  By the time Prince Andrew married Sarah Ferguson, I was in a full blown obsession.  I taped it on our VCR and I watched it over and over...many times.  I was intrigued that she changed from a floral headpiece to the diamond tiara after signing her marriage certificate.  I loved that she had the letters A and S embroidered in the train of her dress.  I even had their wedding photos ripped from magazines on my bedroom walls.  It wasn't Princes Charles or Andrew who stole my heart...it was the women in all their diamond, silk and taffeta covered glory!

So, it only makes sense that I would once again - with the rest of the world - be swept up in all the romance of another fairytale, British royal wedding.  Cute little mischievous page boy Prince William is now all grown up and marrying the bride of his dreams.  Delightful and I can't wait!
