Weekend Round-Up

Well my daughter did not disappoint as she rolled out the red carpet for me despite it being only 5:30 AM. I wore my fascinator hat and gloves 

and my daughter paired her hat with her flamingo patterned pj's. No photo of that ensemble.   

We enjoyed watching all the royal wedding coverage with many sweet Meghan and Harry moments,

and breathtaking views of Windsor Castle with throngs of people lining up all hoping for a glimpse of the royal couple. 

Hat watching did not disappoint-some of my favorites

and The Queen's matching ensemble was quite colorful and look she is smiling!

It was a ‘stand-up’ wedding breakfast in Windsor Castle’s St George’s Hall, which saw 600 guests enjoy ‘bowl food’ and canapes such as Scottish langoustines wrapped in smoked salmon, croquette of confit Windsor Lamb and champagne and pistachio macarons. But it was this amazing looking cake that caught my attention.

Harry and Meghan’s £50,000 wedding cake made with 200 Amalfi lemons, 10 bottles of elderflower cordial and decorated with peonies and roses.
The mouth-watering three-tier cake is thought to have been too heavy to stack the sections on top of each other. Instead the three separate tiers are resting on ornate golden goblets.
I thought the presentation was quite creative using gold goblets. The cake was cut at the afternoon wedding reception.
All and all a fun way to spend the early morning hours royal watching.
