Royal Wedding Scents Revealed!

Kate's Wedding Fragrance: An instant hit!

While I was cooing over the dress, the hair and the make-up on last Friday’s extravaganza, some clever people were finding out other, smaller details about the Royal Wedding.

Namely, which scent the bride was wearing! Ahh yes, this didn’t cross my mind because well the McQueen was far too overwhelming to even consider other thoughtful touches that had gone into the Bride’s overall look.

Anyway, said fragrance is called White Gardenia Petals by little known British brand, Illuminum. Billed as a mixture of coconut, Jasmine and amber wood- the perfume, as you may have expected, is now sold out completely.

In fact it even has a two week waiting list now that the Duchess of Cambridge has given her Royal seal of approval to it.

Not only is she a fan of this fragrance, but also of Jo Malone. Kate apparently filled the Abbey with their signature candles and provided luxury soaps and hand washes for the guests to use in the VIP bathrooms.

How posh. I think I may light my Jo Malone candle in appreciation… well it would be rude not to wouldn’t it?!

The Royal Wedding: My Coverage

Good morning early risers! I'm currently juggling making finger sandwiches and scones with blogging, tweeting and following the BBC coverage.

So far I have noted...

- Fearne Cotton looking lovely in a polka dot dress and fitted beige jacket, complete with uber blonde hair and wavy locks.

- Women with very large hats entering the Abbey... I can't wait to see Victoria Beckham!

- Huw Edwards speaking awkwardly about what Kate will be wearing- not really his thing!

- I may well cry... I'm feeling bizarrely emotional today seeing the scale of everything! The Mall is totally packed with people. IT WILL BE EPIC

- This is already old news, but if you don't know- Once married William will become Duke of Cambridge and Kate Duchess of Cambridge. I'm gutted for Kate, Princess Catherine had a nice ring to it!

Till later! Serena xx
