I loved the royal wedding. No, I wasn't one that woke up at 3am to see it, I was one that watched it twice online the next day. Chris even said "she really is a pretty girl isn't she" and it didn't bother me. You know why? Class, beauty, confidence, and lets face it, she IS, and I kind of want to be her {need another oh, 8 inches on me to start with!}. She's the person every little girl always dreamed of being...commoner to royalty. And not only that, but when she was being made fun of by the press for waiting around so long for Prince William to propose, she said, "he's the one that's lucky to be with me!" She has so much confidence and I love it! She also is who she is and doesn't hide it! I can only imagine the fights that she's already gotten in with her now mother-in-law over what is "appropriate to wear" for royalty! I mean, she wears the most amazing, extravagant hats {ones that I SO wish I could wear until I remember, oh yes, I live in Rexburg...}, her style is the perfect combination of sexy and class, and she is MODERN! She knows her designers, and when she DOES wear a suit, it's fitted, and not rigid. I covet her clothing {don't judge, I'm working on it}.
So first, I LOVED her dress. Not scandalous, not strapless, so beautiful. What I also love about her, just before going in, she turned around and waved again to the "commoners". She loves the people, I love that.Second, I love that she and Prince W love each other. I love that they laughed together when she first walked up. {Also, Prince Harry (found this out later) whispered "wait until you see her" as she was walking up and William couldn't turn around to see her. I love close families, and it was so sweet!}

Finally, the reception. This was her dress. OH MY GOODNESS! I loved her wedding dress, but I LOVE this dress! She looked so pretty and skinny.
I think she's the new Audrey Hepburn to me haha...totally jealous of her in a love-her-dont-hate-her way.
As a little girl, my dream was always to walk down that huge catholic chapel aisle, with white flowers {peonies to be exact} on every row, and a long long train. Don't get me wrong, I loved my temple wedding, but love watching people I love be able to live my dream of the big cathedral wedding...and having the money to do it right. So, I loved watching it, I love her, loved the wedding, loved the outfits, loved the hats {oh the hats!}, loved it all.

I TOTALLY wasn't about the wedding leading up to it...but then I watched the recap on the Today show later that day and got SUPER sucked into it! She's gorgeous and I loved everything about the wedding! I coveted MANY parts of it! :)
