Meghan Mania: Which doll will be first in the new Royal Wedding race?

All members of the royal family have been subject to this doll transformation. Her soon-to-be sister-in-law, Kate, hubby Prince William, and their children have all been made into dolls. It?s just what happens to the British royal family. Their images pop up on the most unlikely places: toaster cozies, teacups, coffeepots, ashtrays, and even bars of soap!

Just in time for the holidays!!!! :xmas1:

Scroll through to see some of the past royal dolls including Princess Grace, Diana, Princess of Wales, the Cambridges etc...I'm sure we'll see a Mattel version of Harry and Meghan too.

Will Meghan have a peony bridal bouquet?

I predict that it will be primarily white flowers but I don't know which varieties we be featured. Peonies are lovely though.

Royal wedding dresses have to stand the test of time, but it?s not just the dress we remember. It?s the bouquet

Will the Glass Coach be used ton take the bride to the Chapel?

[TLLK]

I doubt it. The distance from the castle to the chapel is very short and on a downward slope. More than likely she'll be driven via a royal Bentley  to the chapel like Sophie and Autumn were for their weddings.

Meghan and Harry's Royal wedding day could be TERRORIST TARGET

 Considering what the UK has been through in the last year, I'm not surprised that St. George's was chosen as the venue.

Security around the event in May is likely to exceed even that of Prince William and Kate Middleton?s nuptials in 2011, when 5,000 police officers were on duty.

The unprecedented threat from terrorism is understood to have been one reason for the couple?s decision to marry at St George?s Chapel inside Windsor Castle rather than at Westminster Abbey.

Security chiefs believe they are able to throw a ring of steel around the Berkshire town much more easily and more effectively than central London.

A well-placed source said that a Special Forces team will mingle with the tens of thousands of well-wishers lining the wedding route to keep an eye out for anyone acting suspiciously.

Snipers will take up position on vantage points in and around Windsor?s 11th century castle and armed police will man road blocks around the town

It makes sense.

Might there be banners bearing the initials M and H on the route of the wedding?

I've never seen that done for any previous BRF wedding either at WA or SGC. @Curryong-Have you ever seen anything other than Union Jacks along a wedding route?

@LouisFerdinand-Here is video from the Cambridges' 2011 wedding procession. It's just Union Jacks along the route.Kate Middleton Prince William Wedding Procession.avi - YouTube

Not sure but there will be an endless supply of Bric-A-Brac once the date is announced.    :xmas12:

Considering what the UK has been through in the last year, I'm not surprised that St. George's was chosen as the venue.

Thats true, but a sad commentary on the times, if it would have to be done for that reason. I think it would backfire though if certain ner'do wells decided to harm the young royals (well any royals, but the most publicity/connection is with the young ones) I think it would wake ppl up.

[TLLK]

^^^ Good points @Duch_Luver_4ever and any attack that day would be horrific.  However TBH my greater concern is that the well-wishers along the route will be the ones most likely to be targeted since the terrorists know that the royal family and their guests are likely to be better protected.  :(

[Duch_Luver_4ever]

True, they do like to go for so called "soft targets" like crowds and less protected ppl.

[amabel]

I hope there wotn be any horrendous attacks, and it is problaby less likely if the service is held out of London.  Also, it will mean less crowds in London, which is always a plus..but its a shame. I don't really think Windsor is the ideal location.

Were not banners bearing the initials E and P used on the route of the wedding when Princess Elizabeth married Prince Philip in 1947?

[TLLK]

That was a different type of wedding @LouisFerdinand  because as heir to the throne, Princess Elizabeth's wedding was a state occasion. From looking at video from Charles and Diana's 1981 wedding (also a state occasion) I didn't see any C & D banners on the route.  Honestly, I believe that the cost of creating new banners for every royal wedding would be an expense that the BRF or the state would rather not pay. Especially now since Harry and Meghan's wedding is being predicted that it will be the most expensive ever in terms of security costs. Remember that the security costs are met by the public too.

How many hymns will the wedding service have?

I'm going to say that there will be an opening hymn, a couple midway through the service, a recessional and of course "God Save the Queen."

According to e entertainment Meghan back in LA since two days ago, and will be back to London for Christmas.
****
Her dad spoke to The Mirror that he would love to walk Meghan down the aisle. He spoke after receiving from the reporter a bottle of champagne and a box of English tea.
