On the 29th of next month it will the big day for Prince William and Catherine Middleton. How are you thinking of
celebrating this event? You may get inspiration from our ‘Kings & Queens’ blog post.
If you are holding a street party have you thought about all the party goods you might need? From red, white and blue decorations, to tablecloths, serviettes, party hats, balloons, cutlery, etc., there are so many things you may need. Some people are choosing to celebrate the wedding by holding a street party in fancy dress. Although you might think that a Prince and Princess theme a good idea, in reality particularly with children the scope of this can be quite limited. So today, in honour of the fact that on this day in 1871 Queen Victoria opened the Albert Hall, in memory of her Prince, we thought we might suggest a royal theme. After all you have so
many monarchs to choose from, not only from British history but also from Europe and the rest of the world.
Having a ‘Royalty’ theme opens up the costume theme, and the ‘Kings & queens ‘ blog post should have given you some ‘outside the box’ costume ideas. See below for a few of our costume ideas that may give you further inspiraiton…
