I remember getting up at the crack of dawn to watch Diana and Charles take their vows and I certainly plan on doing the same as William and Kate tie the knot. How about you? Do you plan on watching?

Look forward to watching the wedding! I adore the beautiful china. How lovely! Thank you for the opportunity to enter the contest.
It’s going to be a mega ratings, millions, in any and all time zones and probably break all records!
Thanks for making it even more fun :)
How fun! Please sign me up.
I’m hoping to be able to watch! (And thanks for the chance to win something so wonderful.)
Thanks for the chance!
Would love to win! Put me in!
As the wedding is being shown at 3:00 a.m. on a work-day, I’m not sure if I will be able to watch it ‘live’ so I’ll tape it. I’m sure that it will be the talk of the day at the office. Good luck to both the bride and groom-to-be.
Royal weddings are always interesting to watch….not only to see the wedding participants but also to see the reaction of the world-at-large. Count me in!
Lovely prizes! Look forward to the anthology and will definitely be watching William and Catherine’s wedding. I got up early years ago to watch Charles and Diana marry and am eagerly anticipating this next royal wedding!
I watched Diana and Charles and Fergie and Andrew. Of course, I will watch Willliam and Kate!
What woman doesn’t get a thrill –vicarious or not–in watching a wedding and a royal one with all the lovely splendor and tradition, well, I may not stay up to watch it, but I will definitely be looking at the news reports online. Here’s wishing them both much happiness.
I will record it. I watched his moms as a kid.
I didn’t plan on watching Charles and Diana – but I ended up staying up all night giving birth to a baby :)! Once I was in my room, I turned on the TV and that’s what was on so I watched it. It was lovely and distracted me from the pain. I’m not sure what time William and Kate are getting married, but I may watch for old times’ sake.
Forget recording it, I will be watching it happen! Please enter me in the contest, that way when Prince Harry comes here to marry me, I’ll already have the china!!
I’ll be watching the wedding – and DVR’ing it as well, just in case I take a little catnap during the proceedings! It would be great if someone would rerun Charles and Diana’s wedding before the big day, too. After all, can’t get enough of those royal weddings!
I hope you’ll enter me in the contest as well!
I watched Charles and Diana and I’m sure I’ll watch William and Kate.
I will definitely be watching! William was such a heartthrob for my generation – I had a picture of him in my room in high school!
Yes, I plan on watching it. I’ll probably tape it, though, so I can skip through (boring/repetitive) parts of it. I just finished my honeymoon when Charles/Di wed, so I was able to be up early to watch the wedding before heading into work. (Sure seems like maybe 10 years ago now – and we are celebrating our 30th anniversary this July!)
I might watch it if I’m off work. It looks to be very romantic. Thanks !
Oh I can’t wait for the wedding! I’m sure I’ll be dvr’ing it!
I’ll be watching. In fact a friend is throwing a Wedding Party with tea and scones to watch it with. And I’d love to win something to commemorate the event. Thank you.
What a beautiful place setting–and looking forward to the anthology. :-)
I won’t be watching live – will catch it later all over the ‘net!
I’m not sure I’ll get up early to watch – oh, who am I kidding? Of course I will! Thanks for the opportunity.
I took the day off of work for the festivities. I will be up at the crack of dawn with my friend to watch. :) Can’t wait!
What a great prize package!
Wow that China set is just so beautiful. I wonder if you can actually make yourself put a piece of cake or what-not on it? I would defnitely hesitate. And the authors in on this series, wonderful. I would really like to be in on this giveaway please and thank you. :)
I’m hoping to watch! I do remember getting up to watch the Charles and Diana wedding. My mother told me about watching (or listening on the radio, I can’t remember which) to Elizabeth and Phillip’s wedding!
I would like to watch the wedding live, but I will probably be at work, so will dvr it.
Doubt if I’ll be watching the wedding either, but the book sounds intriguing.
Thank you Avon for having the giveaway, please enter my name.
I am somewhat interested in watching the wedding, but I just think that Kate(Catherine) lacks Diana’s charisma. My interest is kind of like watching a trainwreck – afraid to look, yet can’t turn away.
This book seems as if it will be a very good book.
I will be recording the wedding and not watching live that way I can pause, rewind and fast forward when necessary.
I won’t be watching live, as I like my sleep too much, but will probably catch it online somewhere later.
And this prize looks amazing-I want to read the anthology!
Not sure if I’ll be around to watch but I’m sure highlights will be on air all over after. Lovely prize and I’ve been waiting to read this anthology.
How fun to be able to enter to win ebooks now.
I have no television reception, so won’t get a chance to watch.
I’m not sure I’ll watch the royal wedding this time.
I’d love to be entered in the drawing, though. Nice prizes. :-)
Looking forward to this Anthology. Great give away.
I am excited about the wedding! :) What a great contest too…
I’ll definitely be watching: what a generous prize … thank you!
Have a great weakness for the pomp and circumstance, so I’ll probably be watching.
I don’t know if I’m going to watch. Maybe if I still lived in England I would be caught up in it all but it is so far removed from my daily life right now.
As a 16 year old, I got to travel to Britain with my sister and mother just after the royal wedding. All of the stuff left over in the shops after the fact, really forged a need in my young self, to collect royal wedding memorabilia!
I can read the anthology while I watch “”Say Yes to the Dress.”” It will be a wedding extravaganza!
Love that show!
I loved spending the day watching all the wedding coverage of Charles and Diana. This year my Neice is getting married that day so will have to watch the highlights.
I have to work that day and doubt I will be able to catch more than a few minutes of the wedding. We do have a TV in our lounge so I will try to peak a couple of times and see what is going on. I am most interested in seeing what her dress looks like. Once I see that, I can skip the rest.
A new anthology! Great. I am interested in reading this one.
I probably won’t watch the wedding, but will check out the pictures online afterwards. I did watch Charles and Diana, but I can’t remember if I saw it live or later.
I’d love to have a copy of the book.
A new anthology by my favorite historical romance authors – YES!!! Just knowing it’s coming out makes my month.
I think all of the hoopla is warranted at a particularly bad economic time in the U.K. Royals-rich. Everyone else suffering. Let every one enjoy a spectacular event that they can watch . Love the give away.
There’s something fascinating about a royal wedding, isn’t there? I can’t use the china but would love a copy of the book.
love the authors and would love a copy of the book!
