The English will soon have a new member to the royal family. This new addition comes as Prince William and Catherine Middleton are joined in wedlock. The wedding is set to take place on April 29, 2011 at 11am at the historic Westminster Abbey. Two choirs, one orchestra, and two fanfare teams will perform music at the Wedding Service. Following the Wedding at Westminster Abbey, Claire Jones, the Official Harpist to HRH the Prince of Wales, will perform at the Reception hosted by Her Majesty the Queen at Buckingham Palace. The 1st Battalion Irish Guards will be providing the Queen’s Guard at Buckingham Palace, St James’s Palace and the Tower of London throughout the day. The Guard will turn out for the departure of the Royal Family from Buckingham Palace to Westminster Abbey. More than 1,000 military personnel and military musicians will line the route from Westminster Abbey to Buckingham Palace. They will be made up of officers and other ranks from: Royal Navy, Army, and Royal Air Force. Prince William and Miss Catherine Middleton have chosen Leicestershire based cake designer Fiona Cairns to create their wedding cake. In addition, the couple has also asked McVitie's Cake Company to create a chocolate biscuit cake for the reception at Buckingham Palace. The chocolate biscuit cake will be made from a Royal Family recipe and was specially requested by Prince William. The whole world will be watching as Prince William and his bride to be Catherine Middleton begin their new life together and will hopefully see this special day will go off without a hitch.
