I heard on the radio a few weeks ago a list of things Kate will not be allowed to do once she becomes a Princess. Some of them make sense and others are quite... well... decide for yourself.
1. People may not address her as ‘Kate’ Once married, her official title is “Her Royal Highness Princess William of Wales.”
2. She will not have the right to vote
3. She cannot aspire to political office
4. She cannot escape public observation. The future princess will have to avoid exhibitionism. She will have the approval from the public and rejection. She will always be in the sights of the people, the press and the rest of the world.
5. She cannot play Monopoly. In 2008, Prince Andrew, Duke of York, said the royal family was not allowed to play Monopoly at home because “it was a very vicious game.”
6. She cannot express issues that cause controversy. She cannot disclose publicly announce her political preferences, social, sexual or accept large amounts of money from the “business” for an interview with her husband.
7. She cannot eat seafood. The royal family does not eat seafood for fear of getting sick or poisoned.
8. She cannot perform any work. Although Kate has degree in Art History, she may not work for money while she is part of the royal family but is allowed to take part in official activities, charitable causes and supporting her husband Williams on official missions.
9. She cannot sign papers which are not official. Kate cannot sign autographs or anything other than official papers already authorized by the Queen, just so her signature doesn’t get faked. But she could sign some papers and government regulation in lieu of her husband.
10. She cannot finish her meal. In Britain, when the queen finishes her meal, all guests must be done as well.

The official program for the wedding was just released as well as a very cute, more laid back engagement photograph.

British weddings are guaranteed to be fun and fashionable because of one thing... THE HATS!!! I wish this was a tradition we had in the US. How fabulous are these women?!?! Even if they missed the mark, which some did (we won't mention any names), they get to add an super fun accessory to their outfit! Check out some of the best (and worst) from The Royal Wedding.

The ceremony was absolutely beautiful and the choir gave us chills! Check out the bride & groom as they leave Westminster Abbey and make sure to notice their transportation!
One of our favorite moments from the wedding, William helps Kate into the marriage. As them start to leave, Kate turns to William and asks "Are you happy?" He replies "Yes" and asks her the same.

The Queen of England gave a 600+ guest brunch reception for the bride and groom at Buckingham Palace but what about the after party? Prince Charles, Prince William's father, threw the newlyweds an amazing dinner reception full with 300 of their closest friends and family! And a wedding after party wouldn't be complete without a wardrobe change! The bride wore another gown by Sarah Burton and the groom changed into a tradition tuxedo.
