I've been to Neuschwanstein once. Its really neat & I really enjoyed the surrounding areas- the mountains & the views. I'd love to go back. I've never heard of his other castle...where is it located?

When you visit Neuschwanstein, at the time I was there, you could take a carriage ride half way up to the castle. The second time I was there, my family and I walked up that giant hill. I almost had a heart attack and I think I lost five pounds by the time I got to the top.

Courtesy of Youtube.com here are some and The second clip shows the horse carriage, the giant hill, and a beautiful shot of the castle with the misty clouds hovering over it. This shows Linderhof as well.

I'm just wondering if the date will be released to the press before the wedding or if it will be a private family affair?

Probably the date will be known some time before the wedding as it happened with her sisters.
