Royal Wedding Fever...

With the big day of Kate & Wills wedding just 2 days away, you can only imagine how they must be feeling.  Getting married in front of thousands would make anyone a little nervous, let alone an estimated audience of over 2 billion world wide.  I know, I am looking forward to it & will be glued to the TV.

All eyes and opinions will be on Kate's hair, flowers, shoes THE wedding gown, the way she moves and speakes, flower girls, Wills' suit, the transportation......
