On This Day

Posted by Carolyn on July 29, 2024, 11:34 am

The marriage of Prince Charles and Lady Diana Spencer took place in St. Paul's Cathedral in London.

I got up at 0-Dark Hundred to watch in on TV. It was really exciting to see it live.

I was 22 in 1981 and was my first really big royal event. Even though as a teen I had seen the Wedding of Princess Anne to Mark Phillips and experienced the first of the Queen's Jubilees, her Silver Jubilee. They had not been as big as the Wedding at St. Paul's Cathedral was. We all had such hope for the marriage back then.

I fixed a big breakfast and tried not to miss anything altho I had to get more coffee and missed a few minutes. I had friends in Washington, D.C. who had a brunch while watching the event.
