what i learned about the royal wedding

1. three am is much too early to watch a royal wedding. especially since your father laughs at you via skype.
2. good laughs are bound to come if your fiance is catching bits on television. imitations like "twist from the wrist, from the wrist you twist" are said with an impeccable english accent.
3. princes don't have to wear rings...but according to your fiance they are not "betrothed" (again in said english accent).
4. even prince's get nervous as they have trouble getting the rings on their princesses.
5. normal brides don't need to be nearly as nervous as 750 million will not be invited, let alone watching their wedding (hopefully).
6. it is terribly sad that one has to wait 2 hours for the groom to finally kiss the bride...especially when that is what this writer was waiting for and fell completely and utterly asleep by the time it happened.
7. no matter what the stipulations are for a bride, she does always look beautiful and the groom looks so very handsome.
8. little kids in your bridal party are quite amusing for those serious moments, especially since the service may be a little long.

AND FINALLY, MOST IMPORTANTLY WHAT I LEARNED FROM THE ROYAL WEDDING:

9. hats are fabulous fashion pieces to wear at any event, especially a wedding. i particularly enjoyed the fascinators. absolutely gorgeous. i really think that canada is in need of these fantastic head pieces!
