With all eyes fixed on the upcoming royal nuptials, one might forget that another royal wedding set the precedent a few years ago.
April 29th marked the 7th wedding anniversary of the now Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, William and Catherine.
Before they had 3 children, William and Kate were former university flatmates who began dating in 2003, and split up before rekindling their romance in 2007.
The couple wed in 2011 at Westminster Abbey in front of 1,900 guests, where the future queen wore a gown by Alexander McQueen which cost more than $400,000.
Love Me Like You Do singer, Ellie Goulding, entertained around 300 guests at an evening reception in Buckingham Palace’s Throne Room.
To commemorate the occasion, Kensington Palace posted a photo on Instagram of the then-newlyweds in an Aston Martin Volante which was decorated with balloons and a license plate that read “Ju5t Wed.”
2018 marks a big year for the royal family with two royal weddings, a royal baby and the Queen’s 65th Coronation anniversary.
