The link ruling my weekend.

Let's start at the very beginning....
*SIGH*
This Aloha Friday we celebrate the way London celebrates. Genius move, by the way, Royals. Give everyone a holiday and make it a big to do partay. Make it a happy thing. This way we don't have dissension in the ranks from the women weeping into their 4am coffee. What? Awkward. OK. ANYWAY - It's a weekend of wedding and we're rocking it right.
Back to the beginning -- the ring,
where all this starts for everyone not just Princesses. Here are some royal facts.
- Royal Ring Fact - Kate's ring used to be Diana's ring: so romantic, slightly heavy handed *heh heh*, kind of creepy.
- Royal Ring Fact - It is a huge friggin' (technical term) sapphire surrounded by diamonds.
- Royal Ring Fact - This rock is currently worth about 127,000 quid - a little more than $265,000
- Fact - Princess Graces' was better.
#1 - If money were no object what ring would you bling?
- Royal Headpiece Fact: "You can't show up as an American to an English wedding without a hat. It is de rigueur." -- Ellen Christine, royal hat maker (Ladies, you've been warned)
- Royal Headpiece Fact: Kate Middleton can wear absolutely anything atop her head and totally pull it off (even a nest of feathers)
#2 - What would you wear atop your head?
You can either pick something you'd wear to Kate and Wills' wedding
or the veil/tiara/hat you'd walk down the aisle with!

OOh! Good job on the bling so far ladies!
Chocolate cake with raspberry filling for me :) Cheers everyone!
Ooh Love the cake! The topper too!
Duchess and I will never be able to share the task of doing dishes together, we'd get our rings confused.
p.s. I would have exactly the cake we had in Calgary (sorry NY peeps) - lemon with lemon curd filling and buttercream frosting. I still day-dream about it...sigh...and the cake lady retired :*( SOB
I knew the cushion cut diamond was yours! But I couldn't resist. It was so shiny.
I love this challenge. I love weddings. I REALLY love royal weddings.
I want Duchess's ring!!
Hmmmm...a cake flavor...I think I'll go with red velvet with cream cheese buttercream icing. Egg-free of course. :)
I love the idea of the infinity ring and I love the simplicity of the floating diamond. There's one with just the one diamond and a solid band. I thought about the cake. It doesn't have to be a cake! How about cupcakes? Strawberry Champagne, Raspberry & Cream, Key Lime Macadamia Nut, Pancakes & Bacon. Uh huh... that's seriously a flavor listed as a choice! Take a look!! Just go to the linked site for the cupcakes and scroll down for the flavors. What would you choose?
