i wonder where they hell they spent that much money - normal weddings aren’t more than 12000 - 15000 Euro ;)
I know the shoes of Letizia were about 750 Euro but still quite a lot to go for the 5 Mn €
I have a doubt though: are the invited ppl paying their own trip and stay in Spain or is it the Spanish government paying for that too?

That Spanish wedding was sooo boring. I switched the telly off after 15 minutes. The one in Denmark
the week before was much better, more relaxed.

I heard that they didn’t smile at all.
It is supposed to be the best day of your life.
Strange there was no smile noticed.

I watched a little part of the wedding on tv. I think Doña Letizia looked so tense, she hardly smiled. But Prince Felipe, well, that’s a prince! I know Spanish people probably disagree with spending money in something like that, and I’m sure they’re right, but I only had eyes for THE PRINCE ;-p

I heard they spent a lot of that E5m on security for the event. There were like 10,000 police officers there or something, wasn’t there? They all had to get paid, you know!
See! I do know about stuff that’s going on outside my own country!
