| |  | The Great British Wedding Album
A collection of music traditionally played at wedding ceremonies, with an elegantly British twist The Great British Wedding Album encapsulates not only the most popular classical music played during wedding ceremonies and celebrations, but also the most quintessentially British classical music. The album is the perfect souvenir soundtrack for the Royal Wedding of Prince William to Katherine Middleton, which takes place on the 29th April 2011. With street parties up and down the country and a national bank holiday, the Royal Wedding is shaping up to be the biggest Royal occasion since the marriage of Prince Charles to Princess Diana. Full of highly recognisable themes, this album is unique in capturing both the celebratory and ceremonial aspects of weddings, but also the sense of patriotism and occasion that will no doubt be prevalent around the time of the Royal Wedding. | | | Usually despatched in 3 - 4 working days. |
