Oh my gosh, I am so in love with your Royal cupcakes - they are gorgeous - love those toppers! Your heart is beautiful too! I'm really looking forward to watching it too, but have made no effort with the decorations -bit shameful really, but I thought until this morning that I would be watching it by myself! Though we've actually got friends coming over now, there's no time to plan anything now, oh well! Anyway have a lovely weekend Helen, hope you enjoy your party xx
The cupcakes look fantastic! I wish I'd planned a bit better and baked something for tomorrow! I cheated and bought some stuff in - but it will only be me and the fiance!
Your heart is lovely too - how long does it take you to make them?
Have a great time tomorrow!

I am glad someone else is doing a royal post! I love all your royal trinkets, cakes and that lovely British heart...I'm watching the wedding for sure..can't wait for the carriage, the royals, the dress and the kiss!!
What I wouldn't give right now for a British flag! I'd be waving it! I'm an Anglophile and wish I was over there for the wedding. I was sooooo depressed about the demise of Diana and Charles marriage. I do hope this one goes the distance.
Did you see the pix on my blog of the lighthouses? We went to the beach for my birthday. :-)
Love those little cupcakes and the crowns on tops. I am off to a garden party today with my girlfriends and we are all dressing up. I have put my bunting up and i have baked a red victoria sponge and filled with white and blue icing ;-)) I am really excited today sharing in a little part of our English history. Have a lovely day, dee x

Royal Wedding happiness abounds in Melbourne too ...!
But I especially want to say how much I like your new blue cardigan, it is just the perfect shade ... and just imagine putting one's knitting in a Cath Kidston bag and taking it to the Lakes - how very English and charming!
my favorite sentence: "Daisy had to be stopped from eating daisies on the lawn" creates a lovely picture in my mind!
Love from Barbara
Helen, this post is adorable!

i thought the wedding day was absolutely perfec. i so enjoyed watching it and wish William and Kate a very Happy life together. they do seem so well suited.
