The Royal Wedding Schedule and Media Coverage-Are You Watching?





After weeks of wall-to-wall media coverage, even more than in the UK, the royal wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton is just hours away.   

Here's a look at the schedule according to ABC News:



At 8:15 a.m., London time (3:15 a.m EST/ 1:15 am PST), guests will begin arriving at Westminster Abbey in preparation for the ceremony.  Prince William and his brother, Prince Harry, who also doubles as his best man, will leave Clarence House at 10:10 a.m., while members of the foreign royal families begin to arrive at Westminster Abbey at 10:20 a.m.
The Goring Hotel will play a major role, as Carole Middleton (Kate's mother) and James Middleton (Kate's brother) depart at 10:20 a.m. to make their way to the church. The hotel is also the chosen place for Middleton's last night as a single woman.  Members of the royal family, including Prince Andrew and his daughters, Beatrice and Eugenie, will begin to arrive at 10:40 a.m. for the ceremony. At 10:51 a.m., Kate Middleton and her father will leave the Goring Hotel via a Rolls Royce where she'll make her way to Westminster Abbey.

The ceremony will then begin at 11 a.m. local London time, meaning 6 am EST/3am PST.
It is expected to draw more than one million visitors in addition to millions of viewers around the world.  It will be followed by the couple's procession from Westminster Abbey to Buckingham Palace at 7:15 EST/ 4:15. EST.  Prince William and his new wife will then appear on the Palace balcony alongside the queen and their families at 8:25 EST/ 5:25 EST. Their private reception at the Palace will then start at 1 p.m. EST/10 a.m. EST.
