Not every bride gets to "I do"

On Saturday, at St Mark’s church in Englefield, Berkshire, Pippa Middleton, a 33-year-old best known for her shapely posterior and well-connected sister, will marry James Matthews, a 41-year-old hedge fund manager best known for marrying Pippa Middleton.

As two private individuals, exchanging their vows in front of loved ones in an English village church on a summer’s day, their nuptials might seem outwardly unremarkable. But not every bride gets to “I do” in front of two future British kings, one of whom, at the princely age of three, seriously threatens to upstage her as he follows her down the aisle as pageboy. (The Guardian.)
