Let Them Eat Cake
Their wedding was a lavish occasion. Are you aware that there were a total of 27 wedding cakes? The official cake was conceived and made by David Avery, the head baker at the Royal Naval Cooking School. Back in 2014, a portion of the 33-year-old cake was auctioned off for $1,375.
Ring the Bells
The specifics of Diana’s wedding provoked a lot of debate and discussion. Did you know she chose her engagement ring from a catalog? Most royal engagement rings are manufactured to order, but Diana chose hers from the Garrard jewelry line catalog, which had 14 solitaire diamonds set in white gold around a 12-carat sapphire. After she died, it was passed down to Kate Middleton.
