Good evening. The event many have been waiting for is just a few short hours away – the Royal Wedding. Tomorrow Crown Princess Victoria will marry Daniel Westling. It will be a historical day in Sweden and many eyes are on Stockholm right now. In just a few short hours we will also get the answers to many of the questions that have been floating about: what will the Crown Princess be wearing? Will the King escort her down the aisle? How many people will be gathered in the street? Will the weather be alright? The list goes on and on. Tomorrow we finally find out.

    Hi, I was wondering if you might know how to watch the royal wedding from the United States. I live in San Francisco and cannot find any information.
    Thank you,
    Diana

    It is nearing midnight in Alaska, another ‘Land of the Midnight Sun’ across the North Pole from Sweden, as I read updates on the Swedish Royal wedding. A very positive event in my opinion as a celebration of love between two people who choose to publicly share their commitment is comendable.
    Fast jag var född och upp växt i Alaska båda mina föräldrar är från Sverige, mamma är från Hedsunda inte långt fran Ockelbo, så jag är väldig ‘Gul o Blå’.
