Plenty of commoners invite Queen Elizabeth II to their weddings, but no one actually expects Her Majesty to attend. Last year, however, while making an appearance at a Manchester Town Hall luncheon during her Diamond Jubilee celebrations, the Queen and Prince Philip bestowed their royal blessing on the union of John and Frances Canning, who had just exchanged vows in an adjacent room. “The Queen spoke to us by our first names,” the bride told The Sun. “She said I looked lovely and she wanted to wish us all the best for the future. It was very special—it was so lovely that she took the trouble to speak to us.” Added the groom, “If we can have half as many happy days together as the Queen and Prince Philip then we will be blessed.”
