" 'It is with the greatest pleasure that the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh announce the betrothal of their beloved son, the Prince of Wales, to the Lady Diana Spencer, daughter of the Earl Spencer and the Honourable Mrs. Shand Kydd.' These words from Buckingham Palace proclaimed to a fascinated world the most momentous piece of Royal news since the Coronation of Queen Elizabeth II twenty-seven years previously. The announcement brought with it a happy conclusion to months of speculation, delight amongst the public at large, and the compelling prospect of a ceremony which carried the unspoken promise of being 'the wedding of the century.' Invitation to a Royal Wedding places the courtship and marriage of a Royal heir to the daughter of the 8th Earl Spencer in its historical perspective. IT looks at the traditions and the meticulous planning inevitably associated with what may be seen as the most important wedding since that of Edward VII in 1863. Above all, with its details of the processional routes, fo the accompanying celebrations and of the ceremony itself in the magnificent English Renaissance setting of St. Paul's Cathedral, it invites you to be a witness to this occasion of supreme pageantry." - from the inner front jacket flap.
