Prince William and Kate wedding to fit austere times

Britain's Prince William and his fiancee Kate Middleton will tone down the usual pomp and ceremony when they wed next year in line with the country's mood of austerity, palace officials said Wednesday.
Prince William (R) and his fiancee Kate Middleton, seen here on November 16, will tone down the usual pomp and ceremony when they wed next year in line with the country's mood of austerity, palace officials said Wednesday.

William, the eldest son of the late princess Diana and heir-to-the-throne Prince Charles, will marry his long-term girlfriend in London after an eight-year romance but the venue has yet to be chosen.
The couple, both 28, began Wednesday to work out the details of the event with an eye on the public mood as Britain struggles with deep cuts in public spending designed to slash a massive budget deficit.

"Prince William and Miss Middleton have spent the morning in meetings with household staff about the wedding," said a spokeswoman for St James's Palace.
She added that an announcement about the venue and date would be made "in due course" after discussions with other members of the royal family, government ministers and Kate's parents, Carole and Michael Middleton.

Turquoise Blue Lapis Reversible Sterling Silver Pendant

Most Helpful Customer Reviews

I recieved this pendant yesterday and it is very pretty. I really like the details in the silver and the stones were nice too. The actual pendant looks as good if not better than the photo. I will be buying from this company again.

This looks better than the picture. I love it! It has a design around the edge that is very pretty. It sort of looks like grapes or little circles in a grape form. I was surprised at the decorative design at the top connecting the bale and pendant because it is so beautiful. The pendant is just the right size. I highly recommend this pendant.

I'm very happy with my purchase. I received the pendant really fast and it's in perfect condition. I will definitley purchase from this company again. Very pretty pendant.

14k Yellow Gold Lab-Created Ruby Heart Devil Pendant w/ Diamond Accent, 18"

Amazon.com Product Description

Show off your sassy side with this devil heart pendant, crafted from 14 karat yellow gold. A stunning heart-shaped lab-created ruby serves as the centerpiece. Held in a three-prong setting, it has a faceted cut and a vibrant red hue. Curved devil's horns and a diamond-tipped devil's tail add a provocative touch. The pendant is featured on a 14 karat yellow gold rope chain that fastens with a spring ring clasp.

 

The ruby heart with horns and tail sounded tacky, but I was getting it for a dear friend known as the "Little Dikkins", so was appropriate. Imagine my surprise when I received the necklace and found that it was not at all tacky, and in fact was so cute I wanted to keep it for myself!

The stone is large, the setting is deceptively sturdy but looks delicate, and it is just gorgeous overall. I highly recommend this item for anyone who likes hearts, red stones, or "dikkins" type items.
