  • Breakfast Programme
    The Celebration of the Wedding of HRH Prince William of Wales & Miss Catherine Middleton Site Map 2 About the Event Today, two of St Andrews’ most famous recent graduates are due to be married in Westminster Abbey in London with the eyes of the world upon them. As the town in which they met and their relationship blossomed, we are delighted to be able to welcome you to our celebrations in honour of the Royal Couple, HRH Prince William of Wales and Miss Catherine Middleton. A variety of entertainment and activities await, building up towards the big moment at around 10:45am where the Royal Couple will be making their entrance into the Abbey for the ceremony itself (due to start at 11am). This will be shown live on the large outdoor screen situated in the main Quadrangle. The “Wedding Breakfast” will be served from 8am on the lower lawn from the marquee with a selection of hot and cold food/drink available. Food will also be on sale throughout the day from local vendors. After the ceremony, and the traditional ‘appearance at the balcony’ the entertainment on the main stage will pick up again, taking the party on to 4pm. The main purpose of the day, aside from having fun, is to raise money for the Royal Wedding Charitable Fund. The list of charities we will be collecting for appears later in the programme. Most of what you see today is provided for free, but we would encourage you to please give generously. The organising committee hope you enjoy this momentous occasion and we are sure you will join with us in extending our warmest wishes and heartfelt congratulations to “Wills & Kate” as they look forward to a long and happy life together.

It has a varied and indented coast, with open sandy bays contrasting with craggy headlands and skerries. It is renowned for its whisky, having eight distilleries with their distinctive buildings. Tourism and traditional agriculture are the other economic mainstays; many come to Islay to watch the spectacular populations of geese and cliff birds. Away from the distillery buildings, the settlement pattern is mostly agricultural with small crofting settlements near the low- lying coastal areas. Colonsay lies to the north. It is fringed by sandy beaches and is also known for its bird life. Prehistoric and mediaeval monuments, such as Mesolithic mounds and stone crosses, survived relatively well here due to less land-use pressure.
