Not that we know of.

I think she was talking of Carla Bruni-Sarkosy, not Charlène!

I think the Wessexes are attending, are they not?. They usually attend these things on behalf of the BRF.

These stories of Charlene trying to leave came out at the same time she was in Greece to attend the Special Olympics.

Are both the civil and religious ceremonies going to be broadcast? Sorry if this was already posted.

Yes, and I think her pregnancy would be more reason to stay home than having been a former girlfriend of Albert.

The village still rings its bells when a Grimaldi occasion takes place.... and, on July 2nd, the local choirs will sing both the Monaco National Anthem and that of South Africa.

How fun! I wish I could go to the wedding in Monaco and I also wish I could attend the festivities in Matignon!

The Prince's godfather was Prince Louis de Polignac.
And HM Queen Victoria-Eugenia of Spain was his godmother.

On the publicity of Point De Vue, in the inside of the newspaper which will be published to morrow, in the sommary, there is a tittle, ' Albert and Charlène, open the ban'
The ban is an officially paper which is published and hanged on the wall of the 'mairie', in it in france there are the names of the brides, birthday dates, the names of the parents, the witnesses of the two brides. I think we will know soon the names of the witnasses of Prince Albert and Charlène. I think Point De Vue already knows many news and they will publish the names and the palace will give us perhaps also the names to morrow
On the site of royal correspondent there is a report on the wedding to day

I saw this ban in Point de Vue. Did you notice they wrote Charlenes name wrong? It said Wittstok instead of Wittstock...

Have any non-European monarchs confirmed their attendance?

I expect to see someone from Morocco, most likely Moulay Rachid. Though it'd be nice to see one of the princesses. Prince Feisal of Jordan has also been to Monaco with former wife Princess Alia...perhaps he'll attend with Princess Sara this time around?

While the information in the L'Express article is certainly newsworthy, there is no need for it to dominate two separate threads (the wedding suggestions musings thread as well as the current events thread).
Please note that all posts regarding this discussion have been moved to http://www.theroyalforums.com/forums...-29100-17.html.
