royal weddings, uncovered.

for a fedisa college assignment, we have to write an article about the royal wedding, without it being fluff . . .

So I am actually researching facts and learning something . . .

bitta general knowledge :)

Prince William Arthur Philip Louis Windsor of Wales, K,G. (Knight of the Garter) will marry Catherine Elizabeth Middleton.

*(The Prince becomes a Royal Knight Companion - and the 1,000th knight in the register. The position reflects his position within the Royal family.

The Order of the Garter, established by Edward III in 1348, is in the Queen’s personal gifts, without advice from government ministers.)

I learnt some of the names and titles of the royal family :)

Queen - Elizabeth, II

Duke of Edinburgh - Prince Philip Mountbatten, Queen's Consort, previously Prince of Greece and Denmark

Prince of Wales - Prince Charles Philip Arthur Windsor

Duchess of Cornwall - Duchess Camilla Rosemary Parker Bowles

Prince Henry - Prince Harry

Duke of York - Prince Andrew, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenies' father

The wedding is on the 29th April 2009, at Westminster Abbey.

The couple were engaged in Kenya, in October 2010, and it was officially announced on the 16 November.

I found this after many, many hours of research . . .

Once married, Prince William may choose his dukedom - Windsor, Clarence, Cambridge, Sussex, Kendal, Avondale, Strathear - in which case Kate will become Her Royal Highness The Duchess of .x.x.x.

If William refuses dukedom, she will be Her Royal Highness Princess William of Wales.

If the Queen decides too, the same way she did for her husband, she may bestow the honour of 'Her Royal Highness Princess Catherine of the United Kingdom, as a stand alone title, regardless of what Prince William chooses.

very excited to carry on watching how this all evolves. I'm not writing all of my research becuase copying has become quite an issue for me . . . I'm getting really annoyed.

anyway, H A P P Y   E A S T E R  ya'll :)

{peace and loooove}
