It's Royal Wedding Week

The Royal Wedding week has officially kicked off.

If you think your week looks busy, imagine helping to plan the Royal Wedding. 

This Friday Prince William will marry Kate Middleton at 11 a.m. at Westminster Abbey. Following the ceremony, Queen Elizabeth will host a reception for the couple at Buckingham Palace.

You can stop waiting for an invitation. The invites have gone out and the guest list is now public. If you (or anyone you know) are on it, we want to know!
