Long-awaited good finally coming:
In this week's edition: What will Pippa wear, who will style Kate's hair, will William don a love ring, what does the couple with everything really need, and finally, a celebratory cocktail.
Tungsten Wedding rings
BBC reports that after the engagement announcement, Queen Elizabeth presented Prince William with some gold from Clogau St David's mine, used to make the wedding bands of the Queen, Queen Mother and Princess Diana. William is meant to create Kate's ceramic wedding ring from this gold. As for William's wedding ring, a spokesman for St. James Palace revealed that the Prince has chosen not to wear a promise rings. This break with tradition is ruffling some feathers among commentators and the general public in Britain. However, it's not the first time this has happened; Prince Charles wears a band, but his father, the Duke of Edinburgh does not.
Wedding gifts
William and Kate have set up a charitable gift fund that includes wildlife and environment protection agencies; children's arts and sports funds, military services and home and family care. That doesn't mean, however, that they don't have a wedding gift list that they've given to friends and family. The Daily Mail reports that, though there are few details, the couple is asking for help setting up their cottage in Anglesey, South Wales, where they will live to be close to Prince William's RAF base.
Royal cocktails
London-brand Beefeater has created a Royal Punch to commemorate William and Kate. The popular liquor company is not the first to come up with the idea but Beefeater's recipe gives a nod to North American royal watchers by adding lemonade, not commonly taken by the British) to the mix. Other ingredients are Dubonnet, to mark the Queen's enjoyment of the drink as an aperitif, and pomegranate juice which represents marriage. See recipe below.
Wish they happiness all lifetime.
