TV coverage of the wedding

Even the staid Weather Channel isn't immune from royal wedding fever.

Starting Monday, the latest forecasts and weather from London will be closely tracked. Al Roker will anchor "Wake Up With Al" from London, and The Weather Channel will take viewers on a trip to the royal couple's new home, the North Wales island of Anglesey.

The wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton takes place Friday at 11 a.m. British Standard Time, which is 6 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time.
Live coverage is as follows:

Kate Middleton is about to become one of the most widely known women of the world, and you’d think it wouldn’t be hard to find a picture of her without makeup. But when that woman is about to become an English princess it all makes a little more sense. But here are a few shots of Kate without makeup.

Prince William has taken Kate Middleton on an emotional visit to his mother’s grave just days ahead of their wedding. 

The pair are believed to have made the journey to the ancestral home of Diana, Princess of Wales, in Althorp, Northants, this month and held hands as they lay flowers in her memory.

The Prince has spoken openly of his desire to share his wedding day with his mother and knows how much it would have meant to her.

A royal source said: “It was very important for William to take Kate to visit his mum just before their wedding day.

“Diana is still a huge part of her boys’ everyday life and always will be.
“It is tragic that she won’t be there to see the wedding, and that she never got to meet his bride.

“But even though Kate never met Diana she knows what an incredible woman she was and it is very important to her she can share and understand William’s love and grief for his mum.”

The young couple strolled through the grounds of the Althorp Estate, the Spencer family seat, before rowing a boat across the lake known as The Oval to the small wooded island on which the Princess was buried 14 years ago.
