Royal Wedding

I am a sucker for a wedding, but I am obsessed with the Royal Wedding.  I think it is such a special thing that a regular woman walked down the aisle in a beautiful dress marry her Prince Charming (literally) and walked out as the Duchess of Cambridge.  Can you imagine what that must feel like?  I was a nervous wreck to walk down the aisle to the 150 guests we had... I can't even imagine what it felt like to do it in front of millions of people!

In honor of this momentous occasion, I am throwing a party!  A Royal Wedding Viewing Party to be exact.  I am gathering all the girls at my house and we are going to enjoy an English breakfast as we watched the DVR'd wedding.

I made a very girlified table runner, pulled out all the fancy serving ware and am going all out on the food.  I am going to make blueberry scones, crumpets (hopefully, this seems very difficult and if I screw it up we will be having store bought English muffins... fingers crossed!) with clotted cream, lemon curd and raspberry preserves to top it with, pomegranate mini muffins, and fresh fruit salad.  This menu is more of a "high tea" accompaniment, but I just wasn't in the mood for bangers and baked beans!  This seems more dainty...

I will post pictures of the party, wish me luck.  I have worked 2-12 hour days in a row, so I only have from 8pm to 9am the next day to get all this done!
