We arrived in our Rolls of course (silly how our chauffeur forgot to take those brochures out of the driver door), red carpet rolled out, Kate and Wills sooo excited we had finally made it. I’m sure you guys caught it all on TV.
Okay, okay, the real life version: we got to the party at Piedmont Park a little past 6 am (we watched Kate walk down the aisle, bleary-eyed, from home). We had a sniff at some beautiful wedding flowers:
We tried on hats made by our local Grand Diva:
Drank champagne (more of those Sally Hansen strips on our nails- I’m totally hooked):
We watched the wedding via flat screen around the tent. Our beautiful hostess from The Piedmont Park Conservatory, announced raffle prizes while Kate and Wills rode to Buckingham Palace:
My absolute favorite part of the morning? The head sommelier from the St. Regis sabered the champagne when Wills and Kate had their first kiss on the balcony! And! They used the same champagne that the royal family had at breakfast – and we got a glass to ourselves. nomnombubbles.
Then we piled back into our Rolls Royce, told Jeeves to hurry over to Buckingham so we could catch the rest of the activities in person, and lived happily ever after
We aren’t big Disney princess girls, but a little bit of real life fairy tale never hurt anyone, eh?
Did you guys watch? Tell us what you did!
You girls look Gorgeous! I Love both of your dresses. Cath, where did you get your dress? I LOVE IT!!
Thanks Emma! I got my dress at Rockit – a local boutique. But the brand is Miss Me. It’s super comfy too.
Sounds like even though it was an early start to the day you girls had a blast! I slept through it and watched a rerun on youtube.I know I’m horrible haha.
OH MY FRAKKING GOD, GIRLS! You both look so effing gorj!
Yes, I agree with Emma, I love Cath’s dress. And your hats! Did you buy those?

Mae Lu @ thereafterish.!
I wish we owned those hats! But unfortunately we do not. We just borrowed them for the photos 🙂
Looks like you had a fun day! I haven’t been able to watch it, but I’m sure I’ll see the highlights replayed.
These are gorgeous dresses! And the HATS!!!! They’re so lovely!

Too, too adorable. You guys are so cute! I was very much obsessed with the royal wedding, and watched every bit of coverage while skyping with the British bf (in England! so jealous!). A party with like-minded peeps would have been nice:) Love the pictures and the HATS!
at least someone was having fun! a wee bit too early for us on the west coast!
look at how lovely you both look with your fancy hats and pretty dresses, and cool nails! (I’m equally obsessed w/ the Sally Hansen strips, my tip though is to stay away from the solid colors).
hello from a st. louis ballet studio! I love your blog in general, and this post especially! The blue hat reminds me a lot of the Kentucky Derby- the box seats, not the lawn! Yikes! Where can you get the nail strips? Also, is there a way to subscribe to this blog? Thanks so much! your fashion follower- jess
Hi Jess,
