The Royal Wedding


The royal wedding of Prince William and Kate will be held on April 29th. Many people are very excited for this joyous event for the couple. It is said that the Middleton  family received a coat of arms. Their coat of arms contains three acorns, which represent the Middletons' three children, and the colors red, white, and blue for England's flag.People are curious to see what the soon-to-be princess will wear on her wedding day. After all, Kate is quite fashionable. The wedding, for those viewing it in the United States, will begin at 4am. It will be a very early wedding indeed. Interestingly enough, my neighbor's daughter will be attending the wedding. I am extremely excited for her and I hope that she has an enjoyable time. Overall, I am elated for the couple and cannot wait for the special day to arrive.
