April 30th, 2011 - 1:12 pm ICT by ANI
London, April 30 (ANI): Just to make his bride comfortable amid the pomp and splendour of their biggest day, Prince William shared a joke with Kate Middleton’s proud father.
Turning to Michael and his dazzling daughter, William quipped with mock innocence: “I just thought it would be a small family affair!”
The comic aside - moments before the ceremony began - set the bride and her father at ease, surrounded as they were by centuries of tradition and the solemn majesty of the event, reports the Sun.
Guests included 40 foreign Royals and 200 members of Government, Parliament and Diplomatic Corps. (ANI)
