Up the Aisle is strangely teasing

Product Description
Alison Jackson presents a humorous folio of photographs to reveal all about the royal wedding between Kate and Wills, the most anticipated nuptials to come out of Britain since Charles and Diana, providing a glimpse into all the events we have imagined but never thought we would see. This largely chronological retelling of the romance of Wills and Kate and the run-up to the Royal Wedding will include pictures of the genealogical background of the two sides and details of the early days of their courtship right through to the wedding itself. There is the endless waiting for Kate the ring-gazing, gym regime, deportment and daily wash and blow. Then there is Wills preparations for the proposal and practice for the public announcement, not to mention the fun of the wedding preparations; drawing up the guest list, designing the menus and picking the wedding dress, while a variety of celebrity guests including Elton John, the Beckhams and Lady Gaga choose and try on their outfits for the special day. Our whistle-stop tour of the royal romance shows what everyone wishes they could see and gives us answers to questions like: How did blushing student Wills chat up Kate? How did Kate learn the tricks of the trade she needed to bag Wills and become Queen material? Ever wondered what actually happened when Wills proposed in the African bush? As for the happy couple s loved ones, how does poor old Charles feel about being upstaged by his young son with Diana s eyes and smile? We have the stag and hen nights; the arrival of the gifts from heads of states from around the world; and, of course, the shots of the The Big Day that you simply won t see anywhere else.

Loved the wedding and loved this book - have bought 5 copies for friends and they have loved it too. You would have to be quite dull and prudish not to see the funny side.

I read this in my local library and it's really, really nasty. It didn't make me laugh, it just made me sad. :(

A great coffee-table book, if not a bit irreverent, which brings a smile to the hardest of faces. So lifelike it's hard to think they are lookalikes. Great fun book.

Funny book
Super funny book. The models used are perfect! However, do take care not to let young children look at it as some of the pictures are for adults only.

In some ways Alison Jackson's publicity for this book was 'the royal wedding' that kicked off 'The Royal Wedding'. Read more
