Should Prince William & Kate Middleton Forego Wedding Gifts in Favor of Charity? - People Posted: 18 Jan 2011 11:00 AM PST Prince William and Catherine Middleton's Engagement Portrait Copyright 2010 Mario Testino What do you get the couple who has everything? For Prince William and Kate Middleton's wedding, it seems that simply a charitable donation will suffice. The royal couple, who will wed on April 29, are considering asking their guests to make a donation to a list of nominated charities, though there's still a way to go before invitations – and gifting instructions – are sent out. "The couple is still considering a number of options regarding gifts but no final decisions have yet been made," a spokesman from William's office tells PEOPLE. When William's parents, Prince Charles and the late Princess Diana, got married, they received thousands of gifts from well-wishers around the world, according to the Sunday Telegraph. Among the loot? Twenty silver platters inscribed with their wedding date from Australia, and an engraved porcelain set from President Ronald Reagan. The Queen and Duke of Edinburgh, meanwhile, received over 2,500 wedding gifts, including jewelry from close relatives. Will this royal couple follow the traditions of old, or start a new one of their own?

Kate Middleton Chooses Her Wedding Dress Designer - Pop Eater Posted: 17 Jan 2011 04:09 PM PST Most women want to feel like a princess on their wedding day. So it's no surprise that Kate Middleton, the girl gearing up for a real-life royal wedding this April, wants to wear her absolutely perfect gown when she says 'I Do' to Prince WIlliam. Since the couple's engagement became public in November, there has been great speculation over who would design the future princess's dress. But according to People.com, Kate's made an official decision on just what lucky designer will make her wedding dress. Kate's remaining mum on the topic, wanting the dress to be a surprise for her bridegroom on their special day. Still, pictures published in the U.K.'s 'News of the World' of the future princess's mother and sister, Pippa, perusing designer Bruce Oldfield's store in London are leading many to believe that Oldfield might be the couturier with the gig of the decade. Oldfield was a favorite of Princess Diana, and while he hasn't commented on whether he's making Kate's gown, he said in a statement this December that, "Kate has such a gorgeous figure that she would look stunning in anything." The leggy, 5'10" brunette beauty will undoubtedly look elegant and poised in any dress she wears. A fashion source told PopEater, "Kate always looks well put together. She is a beautiful woman with a good body and perfect sense of style."
