The Union Jack Royal bunting is up and flags are flying, heralding the wedding of the century, tomorrow, April 29, 2011. Behind the scenes, the Archbishop of Canterbury is going over his notes for the service, the London Chamber Orchestra and Westminster choir is rehearsing and there's not one hotel room left within 200 kilometers of London. The Royal newlyweds plan to reside in Wales at the start, but honeymoon destination and plans are top secret.
However, there's one more destination that might actually have some legs -- sea legs that is. There's a rumor circulating that the royal couple will honeymoon on Desroches or the North Island in the Seychelles, 930 miles off the coast of Africa in the Indian Ocean. Both islands offer secluded, pristine beaches and luxury villas fit for royalty.
Check our the Single 101 Royal Minute for tomorrow with highlights of the celebration. Our best wishes to Prince William and the future Princess Catherine!
