You didn’t think I’d let this go by without some live-blogging did you? Put on your big hats and join us tomorrow at 4 AM EST, as I’ll be doing my best to stay awake wittily comment on everything that’s going on at the Goring Hotel, Buckingham Palace and Westminster Abbey.
And for those of you who can’t join in on the fun from the comforts of their own couch, you can steam the Royal Wedding live on YouTube, starting at 10 AM London time (5 AM to you Yanks) here.
See you tomorrow!

The royal family has released the official wedding programme (that’s how we say it in Britain) for tomorrow’s ceremony. The 28-page booklet includes the normal wedding program stuff – names of the bridal party, a note of thanks from the happy couple – but also a history of Westminster Abbey, both families’ Coats of Arms, and a new portrait of William and Kate by Mario Testino.
By this time tomorrow, the prince will have a wife, Kate Middleton will be a princess, and I will be completely overwhelmed and dying from sleep deprivation. From the amount of rehearsals everyone has gone through in the past 48 hours, I would say that everything is in place for tomorrow. And, worth noting, does Prince Harry have to stand-in for William for everything? The kid has been at Westminster Abbey more times in the past week then he probably has in his whole life. He has a best man speech to prepare, people!

First of all, shout out to the bell hop in the bowler hat. And props (do people still say props?) to the British media for being on this Royal Wedding like a broke hooker on a $20 bill. This is why I need to move to London!
So, there was lots of movement in and around the Goring Hotel, Buckingham Palace and Clarence House today as the final touches are being put in place for Friday’s festivities. From what I’ve read on the Daily Mail today (yes, I hit refresh every 30 seconds and it’s fed into my Google Reader), all of the Middletons left their home in Buckleberry to move into the Goring, a swanky London hotel, where they will spend the rest of their time before the wedding. Bellhops unloaded a buttload (bumload?) of luggage and garment bags into the hotel, including one gigantic white garment bag, which some say may be Kate’s secretive wedding dress. I’m going with Pippa’s maid of honor frock, because even I wouldn’t trust someone else with my dress two days before the wedding.
