Easy to forget but there are other weddings taking place on 29 April!!
Yes, Prince William and Kate Middleton are not the only couple heading down the aisle a week on Friday. According to wedding website confetti.co.uk, an estimated 236 other brides and grooms will be making their vows, including a couple called Kayleigh and Tom, whose ceremony will be held a stone’s throw away from Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall’s residence of Highgrove, in Tetbury, Gloucestershire.
‘I like to think that Kate and Will are getting married on our wedding day, not the other way around,’ says 26-year-old Kayleigh, a headhunter, who lives with Tom, 30, a finance consultant, in Bristol.
‘Don’t get me wrong, I’m absolutely thrilled for them both — but my first reaction when they announced the date was to be really miffed.
‘We’d picked Friday, April 29, months before them, but suddenly the hotels and taxis around our venue all upped their prices because it became a Bank Holiday. That means the cost has risen by more than £1,500, and our guests will have to pay more, too.
‘It’s not just the money. Some of the shine and the excitement surrounding the run-up to our own wedding has gone because everyone is talking about someone else’s big day. I know it’s a huge occasion — and it’s lovely for the whole country — but our wedding is special, too.’
