I watched it, although I did not hang in there during Bishop Curry's sermon on Love - I made breakfast instead!!!!
I was very impressed with Prince Charles, I have always considered him to be a bit odd, but he certainly came through for the bride and her Mother when the families went to sign the registrar. I think he will make an excellent King when the time comes. Those Brits certainly know how to do a parade! |

It was a lovely wedding! I TIVO'd it from PBS so it was quite long to watch (the pre-thing and all....) I was struck how quiet the Brits are in church---NO clapping to show appreciation for the music offered as is often done in the U.S. The Queen seemed so somber.....but the happy couple were fabulous!!!

I did some digging on Bishop Curry who it turns out is quite the radical and uses his office to proselytize his activist beliefs. It felt strange to observe an Episcopal Bishop inappropriately engage in a revival style of preaching a revisionist message in that setting at a formal British royal wedding. I would have been rolling my eyes, too, since he was being so undignified. It seemed bizarre and out of place to me. Amen.

I love the way the Brits pronounce tin foil.
