It was interesting to see a Royal Engagement mug. I had not seen one of these before. I have seen Royal Wedding teacups and plates.

Keep it up with the Bullying to a fellow poster.  I'm not a royal or public figure for discussion.

How is that bullying? You seem to have such a vested interest in W&K, one would naturally think you had some type of souvenir.    :ahhh:

I had one from Andrew and Sarah's wedding that a co-worker picked up in the UK. My parents brought back a mug celebrating William and Kate's engagement. I also have two Jubilee mugs one for QEII's golden and later diamond Jubilees.

You Need This Prince Harry and Meghan Markle Royal Wedding China | Food & Wine (http://www.foodandwine.com/news/william-edwards-home-prince-harry-meghan-markle-royal-wedding-collection)

QuoteWith a new royal wedding fast approaching (May 19 is only 4 months, people!) you should expect a mountain of memorabilia and souvenirs to crash down upon us like a tidal wave. I?m not talking about just British flags and keychains?I?m talking cardboard cutouts, coffee mugs, and even a poster that reads, ?It should have been me.? Some of it is tacky, some of it is ridiculous, but it?s all meant to celebrate the union of these two unconventional lovebirds: One, Prince Harry, a former bad boy British royal, the other, Meghan Markle, a hard-working American actress who literally met her prince charming. No wonder people are desperate to commemorate this moment?it?s basically a storybook romance. Still, not much to come out of the Prince Harry and Meghan Markle memorabilia train has been what one might call luxury. Until now.

The most amazing tatt gets sold to commemorate Royal occasions, though I suppose at least cups, saucers, plates and teatowels etc are usable.

I knew someone who collected commemoration china of all kinds. She had a French plate made to memorialise the opening of the Suez Canal, a platter about some incident from the American Revolutionary War (made in Staffordshire, lol) a dish from Edward and Alexandra's engagement, with their portraits on it, and a commemorative cup of Queen Victoria crossing the Tay Bridge in Scotland by train soon after it opened. The Tay Bridge later collapsed with huge loss of life. So some stuff can be interesting, I guess.

QuoteHarry and Meghan are inviting around 2,640 members of the public to their wedding, but if you aren't one of them there is plenty of memorabilia you can buy to remember the day.

There is an array of weird and wonderful gimmicks already on the market in tribute to the couple's upcoming nuptials.

These include a wooden spoon engraved with their faces, ?40 wedding-themed cereal and a pair of Harry and Meghan dolls - with a nine-piece ensemble of wedding clothes.

I k

I got a Freebie once for one fo the queen's jubilees, and it was a silly little spoon.  For some reason it looked like those little things you see in movies for shovelling up coke (the white powder)... I don't know why but these things are SO cheap and nasty..

QuoteThe Royal Collection Trust has unveiled the official range of commemorative china celebrating Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's wedding.

Cornflower blue with white detailing, the collection features a gold monogram of the couple's initials side by side, tied together with a white ribbon and surmounted by Harry's coronet.

The decorative border on each piece is inspired by the couple's wedding venue.

It is based on the stylised tree ironwork of the 13th century Gilebertus door of St George's Chapel, Windsor Castle, where the couple will marry on May 19.

This, like some other pieces sold in the gift shops of the Palaces, will have profits from their sale go to preserving artworks and objects de art in the Royal Collection, so it's a very good cause.
