wouldn't you hate to get invited to the Royal Wedding?

YES, i would & i wouldn't go if i was, lol. I have never been a social butterfly. I really didn't even want to go to my son's weddings but i did. They have ask for no presents & for donations to their charaties so altho mine would be very small, that's what i'd do . I don't like to dress up so that would be a problem for me.

You make some valid points how would an everyday person dress if invited to such an event. And the gift OMG there's nothing a regular person could afford to give. Nonetheless, what would be in your budget that would stand out that they couldn't already buy with their own wealth? Other than something home made or custom made would be as close as it would probably get

I would be honored to be invited and would have no concious about a present because I would give them something I made - of zero value but priceless to them. Once you go beyond money in everyday life, valuable goods loose their attraction. They will never be short of money but they will treasure their true friends and loyal supporters. I wish them well. They have a job I would not wish to fill.

They asked for donations to a charity they listed in lieu of gifts.

I would wear a nice dress. I would hide them out so they could have privacy-priceless!

Luckily, I'm a guy, so I could just wear any formal suit if I were to attend a Royal wedding. The objective would be to blend in, and not stand out. I would have the same strategy for the gift, also something that would be very common, and not very memorable. Maybe a gravy boat($10 kind from Walmart?)! I'll just have to remember that as much as it is a Royal Wedding, it is also 'my day' for getting myself invited.

Think my invitation was lost in the mail...lol Am not interested in flying that far although I would have been honored to be invited. What would I wear? Probably jeans and tennis shoes. Then I would standout in the crowd. Would probably have made some kind of handcraft gift. I have several firetruck banks and am sure they would have a need for a bank. I mean it will hold all their chump change. It was exciting to watch the royal wedding yesterday morning. The buildings were totally awesome.

I would give them a gift card to Walmart (or Tesco or whatever other discount store) and not a large amount so they can see what regular people live like. Tho I might also give them one of my crafts or stitch something too

Hi cher, I'd love to get invited and I'm sure I'd come up with something as a gift. Blessings.

I would be honored to have been invited. Granted I would have a difficult time knowing exactly what to give them or what to wear, but I would try to give them something that I thought they could use, and try to wear something nice and appropriate. I would definitely have a difficult time, but I would figure something out.

Ha ha!! Seriously, huh? I don't wear such lavish gowns . . . but I'm pretty good at getting myself dressed up at a bargain if I need to (I'd think of it as a costume - ha ha) - so I wouldn't worry about my fashion too much. But getting a gift - eek - I wouldn't know what in the world to get them. You would think they could afford anything they want - and I'd really have nothing to give them - my gift would probably pale in comparison to the other guests (would they scoff at it??). A cash gift from me would be a joke. Since I am an artist, maybe I'd make them a handmade gift (in which there wouldn't be a price tag attached to it) . . . yah, I think I'd do that!

....Hi again cher, I think that they requested that everyone give any gifts to them, in the form of donations to charity. There is nothing, I am sure that there is nothing, that the two of them need, that they don't already have or can't purchase. I would love to have an invitation as a souvenir for a keepsake. I would never want to attend any event like that one, as you have a much better view of everything if you are watching it on television. If you are there, you can only see what is around you, a very limited view. So I was thrilled to be able to watch all of the goings on, in London at the square on Friday. To watch history being made, they are the most adorable couple. Prince Harry turned out to be a looker as well. I understand that he saluted his brother and his wife affectionately, as the Dude and the Duchness. They are also known as the Earl and Countess of Strathearn and the Baron and Baroness of Carrickfergus. Quite a mouthful. Cheers.

Surely there will be a dress code. I would abide by that knowing full well besides letting me in as I would have followed the code, no one would look at me and so why bother and kill myself wondering what to wear. You will be surprised how ordinary these so called royals really are. They would accept any gift as long as it can be used. First I will learn a bit about their brands and go for any consumable - stock lasting for a year may be - or even a gift voucher from a shop that they normally frequent. If you think that they will throw it away, think again.

I wouldn't like to go. Even if they're sensible people and they think what you're wearing doesn't matter or what you're giving them as a gift, the royal family probably would care. If they don't care, they wouldn't be as estrict as they are, they have even added on the invitations what they should wear and what they shouldn't! So you can imagine, you're not going to anywhere, and I guess I can't handle an invitation like this.
