Cultural Matters: Royal Wedding, 29 April 2011
As most of you are probably aware, Friday, 29 April 2011 is the date for the Royal wedding between Prince William (son of Prince Charles and the late Princess Diana of the House of Windsor) and Kate Middleton. The pair met in 2001 at University of St. Andrews in Scotland. St. Andrews is well known as being the traditional religious center of Scotland as well as the site most often credited with the invention of golf. After his father Charles, William is next in line to be King of the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth Realms (16 independent nations).
The ceremony, held at Westminster Abbey in London, will start at 8am GMT (3am our time) with the arrival of guests. The wedding ceremony itself will be at 11am.
