Harry looked like a primed meat seeking missile when he got a look at Kates siter.

Mind you it'd be a hell of a score to finsih the days ceremonies to hang out of the back of her

Hopefully he'll complete his best man duties by squirieng her!

Congrats to them

Got to hand it to Queenie and the Greek bloke - 85 and 90

I must say the British put on a good show, helps keep those youngsters across the pond in their place

PS. My Mrs wants to know what flowers Kate was carrying in her bouquet?

Good lad!

Battle of Britain Flight rounded it off nicely. The sound of it brings out my softer side...and a tear in my eye.

I wonder if Kate is going to let Will smash her back doors in now that they're married


(Only wish it was this Will doing it)

No one does this sort of thing as well as us. Very proud to be British!

Catherine looked gorgeous and I love her dress. Wills looked better when he put his hat on, lol... I hope they have a long and happy life together.

Defo a good day to be British. The BoB flight awesome as always - sounded so much better than the modern stuff that followed!

Bride and Maid of Honour looked gorgeous

Yep, many congratulations to both William, and to Catherine.
Church bits were wonderful, so was the balcony moment X2 times. The pair seem like best mates, which is a good thing to have in marriage. Bishop's words were cool, specially when he talked about transforming but not conforming and reforming each other in marriage. "....associate with the lowly" from James Middleston was yaaye-ed by a few people. William came across as a genuine, stable and caring husband during the "promises and no lies" ritual, Kate looked absolutely dazzling! Very pretty girl indeed. Her lacey dress was so elegant and well-fitted! All immaculate! The carriages, the horses (one of them looked a bit restless, mind), overwhelming enthusiasm of British public, the lot! Great Britain public should be very proud.

We watched the whole thing. It was a wonderful occasion and an example of the pageantry and tradition that only this country can produce due to our long history. Sort of thing that we can be proud of.

I think they seem to be a special couple who will be an outstanding example of the monarchy in years to come, and that he will be a very effective king when that time comes.

My congratulations to them and I wish them the very best for the future.

You did well to see it under the oxygen mask!

Can't beat the sound of four Merlins hammering past though!
