Westminister Abbey it is!

As many have been predicting, Westminister Abbey has been selected by Prince William and Kate Middleton as the destination for 2011's Royal Wedding. St Paul's Cathedral, the other contender where Williams parents, Prince Charles and Princess Diana were Wed has been decidedly ruled out. With Westminister Abbey being perhaps the grandest and most spectacular of British churches, and not to mention a pinnacle of "Britishness," William and Kate can be sure of a breathtaking platform for their Wedding Vows.

Inside Westminister Abbey

Williams Grandmother, Queen Elizabeth the 2nd married the Duke of Edinburgh in Westminister Abbey and a host of other Royal Weddings have been held there too, including Princess Anne and Prince Andrew to Sarah Ferguson. With a capacity for approximately 2000 and perhaps the Grandest church entrance EVER, it's no wonder that Westminister Abbey is such an appealling host for a British Royal Wedding.


Wedding of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson at Westminister Abbey

With such an extended aisle and extremely high ceilings, we at Timeless White are now speculating how Will's and Kate plan to decorate the venue...Will they have a deep blue aisle runner like Prince Andrew and Fergie?... Will the Abbey be adorned with beautiful high arrangements of flowers?... We sure can't wait to find out!

With love, TW x
