    I am really impressed that there have been no leaks about her dress, really. It's still the huge secret it should be...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,095 ✭✭✭LadyMayBelle


    Can we have a thread for those of us keen on watching it? There's a tonne of threads bashing it all over the place..


    So, this is for the fans..currently waiting for the start on BBC!

    I'm tingling about this - really can't wait.

    I agree about leaking it, The only clues thus far is that he her hair and make up will look 'natural'. First guests are set to arrive soon. They have been given the title Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, Seems a bit mature for their age.

    I'm off today, not because of the wedding, (got roped in to minding my nieces & nephew for the weekend) so I'm sitting here watching it :) I'm a sucker for a wedding, and it kind of feels like I've grown up with William & Harry in a way since they were in magazines & papers so often, so it just seems natural for me to want to watch it. Plus I'm a sucker for a good wedding & romance, so it's going to satisfy the romantic in me today!

    I'm most looking forward to seeing the dress :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 445 ✭✭_whiskers


    Woo! Was hoping for a happy thread about it! :D what channel has the best coverage?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,095 ✭✭✭LadyMayBelle


    To be honest I have been watching BBC because it's what I normally watch, but it seems pretty okay coverage wise..

    They've got people everywhere.

    Can't even imagine what must be going through Kate's head!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 445 ✭✭_whiskers


    Just stuck on BBC, the atmosphere is amazing! :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,095 ✭✭✭LadyMayBelle


    Edith, Edith, your get up is shocking. I love 50's style skirt but this one makes you look like a loo roll holder.

    I'm watching tv3 which I think is showing the ITV coverage, I love Philip Schofield so I'm happy. Just tuned in now, trying to work and watch it at the same time, so I'll mainly be watching from 10am until just after the ceremony and then at lunchtime for the balcony bit.

    My mother missed Charles & Diana's wedding because she was working, as she did almost every day for 35 years, so she's enjoying opportunities like this now that she's unemployed, every cloud and all that! :)

    I don't think I'd get up at 7.30 for my own wedding never mind to be a guest at one! Poor guests having to be ready so early!

    V Beckham looks a little afraid her hat will fall off...

    edit..how is it staying on??
    David is such a dashing man..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,729 ✭✭✭Acoshla


    Oh I missed her!

    Just saw her, I like her head piece, she looks so much better with the bit of weight on her face, pity she's so mortified at putting on weight when she's pregnant, such a dull dress.

    Great hat tho:p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,095 ✭✭✭LadyMayBelle


    There are some amazing hats alright..gosh she doesn't look near as gaunt in the face as she has been.. apparently Amy Hooverman has arrived with Chelsea Davy wearing pink...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 740 ✭✭✭Sibylla


    Chelsea Davy in emerald green, Victoria Beckham in black looks really nice actually. There is huge speculation Kate will be wearing a Mc Queen.

    My God dailymail.co.uk has photos of the Beckhams and Chelsea Davy up already, quick work, the joys of technology!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 740 ✭✭✭Sibylla


    Chelsea Davy opted for Alberta Feretti emerald green while Victoria Beckham looks great with her hair tied back in one of her own dresses.

    David and Victoria look gorgeous!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 740 ✭✭✭Sibylla


    Everyone seems to be following tradition and wearing a hat, Haven't seen anyone without a head piece of some osrt. Tara Palmer in royal blue just arrived.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,095 ✭✭✭LadyMayBelle


    Chelsea does look a bit rough in that DM pic..not sure about her choice today, but I see she has another outfit for later!

    Is there anywhere with photos? I am at work and I love the style.

    Vicky is being bold if she's wearing black to such a formal wedding! It's a colour of mourning.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,475 ✭✭✭Lil' Smiler


    Victoria Beckham looks beautiful. Tara Palmer Tomkinson just walked in, the colour of her dress is stunning, the shapes quite nice too.

    I posted a few in f&a as soon as I see them online.

    Otherwise check out the daily mail!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,095 ✭✭✭LadyMayBelle


    No, it's navy she is wearing.... daily mail site has some pics but not much yet...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,095 ✭✭✭LadyMayBelle


    jesus TPT's nose..... the hat is interesting but god love her, the torment she has been through with her nose :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 193 ✭✭Regina Phalange


    Watching ITV here in London, Victoria and David looked amazing! Victoria wearing her own brand, a dark navy floaty dress, covering the bump well and a gorgeous fascinator pinned to the front of her head, can't find a pic right now, but I'm a fan.

    Chelsy Davy had a beautiful turquoise green top and skirt by Alberta Ferretti. She looked very sweet.

    Princess Diana nieces Amelia and Eliza Spences looked beautiful, very pretty girls.

    Lots of bright colours, but also some muted nudes and pale pinks, really pretty colours.

    Oh I'm loving the fashion!

    Yep dailymail should keep up with the photos I'd say, Victoria is reknowned for hating how she looks when she's pregnant so I'd say that's why the dramatic hat and dull dress, but she could have looked so much better. You can see on her face that she's nervous and shy like she always is, which is always misconstrued as sulky/snobby, I love her, just wish she'd keep that bit of weight on her face and body after she has babies!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,252 ✭✭✭✭Madame Razz


    Yup, deffo navy; Philip Treacy hat-come on Galway :p

    TPT is looking well:)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 740 ✭✭✭Sibylla


    I agree gorgeous outfits, Tara Palmer's hat is by Steven Jones. Full length VB dress shot

    Not a fan of Victoria Beckham's dress, I think navy is a bit of a dull colour for a wedding. I suppose it's because she's pregnant, as other people have said.

    Boris Johnson has bought them a tandem bicycle as a wedding present:p

    Ben Fogle's pregnant wife is wearing a beautiful bright green dress, Victoria look and learn!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 758 ✭✭✭bubbaloo


    Seriously, Posh's dress is like a black sack!
    The hat is nice though - and God love her, she was shaking with nerves.

    The blue colour on TPT is gorgeous - beautiful dress but the gloves are horrendous.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 445 ✭✭_whiskers


    Ben's wife does look amazing! Don't like what TPT is wearing, its too much with the gloves.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,778 ✭✭✭Pauleta


    David Beckhams gear looked great. Gotta give a virtual fistpump to David Cameron as well excluding the tie.

    merge maybe??

    Such fancy hats! Wonder how many people said "oh Mr Bean"!

    I'm watching ITV and they said that Victoria Beckam's hat was by Philip Treacy

    He seems to have been the milliner for numerous guests. William is going to wear his irish guards uniform.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,729 ✭✭✭Acoshla


    So hat now means pretty thing perched at a precarious angle on your face yes??

    Tara Pamler's outfit is stunning

    Isn't this Joss Stone?

    Oh I hate Tara Pamler's outfit! The long gloves look ridiculous.

    And is it just me or does Chelsea Davy's outfit look extremely ill-fitting?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,095 ✭✭✭LadyMayBelle


    Anyone know who the three blondes are that BBC keep focusing on?? I thought one might be Holly Branson but two look like twins...


  • Registered Users Posts: 193 ✭✭Regina Phalange


    I like TPT outfit, but think its all very blue! Don't like the shoes.

    Phillipa Lepley, who was the bookies favourite in November to design Kates dress believes its going to an Alice Temperly dress.... Hmmm
