The Celebration of the Wedding of HRH Prince William of Wales & Miss Catherine Middleton Site Map

2 About the Event

Today, two of ’ 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.

Over the course of the last 10 weeks, a dedicated group of individuals from many different aspects of St Andrews life have come together to put on today’s event. “The Wedding Breakfast” began as a small celebration for the community of St Andrew and has now grown beyond all recognition. Thanks to the dedication and motivation of the organisers, and with the support of others, it has become the largest community event in St Andrews for a generation. At the core of the event, however, is still the firm belief that this event is “by the community, for the community”.

At this moment, we would like to pause to thank the groups involved as the organising committee, who have all put in a tremendous amount of work to make this event possible:

All our performers today are part of the local community, meeting, rehearsing and performing on a regular basis within the town. This event has provided us with the unique opportunity to bring all these talented groups and individuals together for the first time. Indeed, the theme of joining the community together in this way, fits nicely in with a marriage itself.

If you have been particularly interested in any of the entertainment you have seen today, you can talk with any of our performers either during the day, or after the event and they always welcome new members.
