Prince William and Kate Middleton chose to spend time at undisclosed location in the UK as they postponed their honeymoon abroad.
There was speculation it may have been prompted by security concerns. The couple was originally thought to have booked a honeymoon in Jordan but security hazards in Middle East led them to rethink their plans. They are expected to take their two-week overseas trip within a month, before commitments in June.
A wedding band of Welsh gold is a compliment to the special engagement ring that Prince William has already given Kate Middleton.
The wedding band was created by Wartski from a piece of such gold that was given to Prince William by Queen Elizabeth shortly after his engagement, according to a palace spokesperson. Prince Harry, who will be the best man, will be entrusted with carrying the precious ring to Westminster Abbey on Friday. There will only be one ring as Prince William has decided to forgo wearing a wedding band.
Kate Middleton wore Princess Diana’s ring after being engaged to Prince William.
The brunette beauty was wearing the engagement ring, which consisted of 14 diamonds surrounding a sapphire, at a press event in London.
Kate was engaged to Prince William in October during a private holiday in Kenya. Her wedding will happen in Spring or Summer of 2011 in London.
