Post Royal Wedding - English UK Culture




For some you who watched The Royal Wedding, there might be some things that you would like to know about. (I do - why were there trees inside the Abbey?).


I love the video of the priest cart-wheeling down the aisle (nave) of the Abbey after the ceremony (and one of the trees!).
