A sharp contrast with Charles-Camilla wedding – a connection of two noble families but poorly cheered, Will-Kate’s Cinderella fairly wedding seems to receive more blessings – women don’t envy Kate; William learns from his Grandma Elizabeth how to protect Kate and their privacy; and 87 per cent surveyed sees Kate a better queen than Camilla.
Or may I rephrase the question – how will the William-Kate wedding serve the royal family?
Royal’s tighter bound with Britons

Kate Middleton’s popularity has soared but the public fear she will suffer snobbery when she joins the Royal Family, a poll for the Daily Mail reveals today.
More than half the public think the wedding will strengthen the monarchy, and support for Kate as the future Queen has leapt dramatically. The findings suggest her dignified behaviour since the engagement in November has been greatly to her credit, with women especially impressed.
But many fear she will suffer snobbery at the palace once she crosses the threshold from commoner to royalty.
Nonetheless the poll, by Harris, shows the young couple can ride a wave of public enthusiasm as they embark on married life. The euphoria contrasts with popular sentiment in 2005 when Prince Charles married Camilla Parker Bowles. Then, 65 per cent believed their marriage would weaken the monarchy.
Eighty per cent think William would make a better king than his father, and 87 per cent see Kate as a better queen than Camilla.

The survey of 2,000 adults, undertaken for Moneysupermarket, the price comparison site, found that 34 per cent would celebrate in some way, with those planning to do so saying they wold spend an average of £29 per person.
Verdict, the research consultancy, has calculated that an extra £620 million will be spent as a result of the Prince William and Kate Middleton's big day, on memorabilia and party food, as consumers stock up for the four-day weekend.
Richard Lim, economist at the British Retail Consortium, said: "With customers under pressure and retail sales falling dramatically, the wedding and the extra day off will give a useful boost to the national mood and to retail sales.
"Given the rising demands on household budgets, this survey shows a surprisingly strong willingness to spend on food, drink and memorabilia. And the extra shopping opportunity provided by the additional Bank Holiday will even help sales of things like DIY and garden goods, unrelated to the event."
British national culture branding

The mysterious British royal family is always the core drive to British economy – every yea, the British tourism income hits around 19 billion pounds, nearly 100 millions directly comes from royal family, castles and the palace.
Look back on 30 years ago, 700 million audiences watched the weddings of Prince Charles and Princess Diana – that wedding, with 30 million pound expenditure spotted in high profile in global audienceship, has refreshed the British economy during the financial recession at that time.
Same logic, the Will-Kate wedding, one of the few highlights of the busineness boosters will also warm up for the 2012 London Olympic Games.
And it will be also a catalyst of British tourists industry and lead the London or the royal family fever.

The royal family discourse will be reinforced by the Will-Kate wedding at least from the perspective at present time. Pragmatic British aim to successfully utilize the Will-Kate weddings to boost the commerce to ensure a constitutional monarchy legitimacy in nowadays age, to brand the British national identity through incorporating popular discourse, and to reconnect its people by collective memories of fresh but common blood's injection into the "blue blood."
