Tomorrow Princess Juliet will be marrying Mr Peregrine Banksbrook. The ceremony will take place at Ruggington Cathedral because let's face it we don't have any other Playmobil churches and will be conducted by the Archbishop of Ruggington, assisted by the Dean of Lowbeach-on-Sea, with an address given by the Bishop of Highbath, the Right Reverend Balthazar Browne.

The ceremony will be followed by a carriage procession, and a reception in the grounds of Roundwood palace.

In Ruggington, the streets are being cleaned ready for tomorrow.

The dress designer is Verity Vernon! She makes some last minute adjustments to Princess Juliet's attire.

At Ruggington Cathedral guests are arriving. But I'll have to post most of those photos over the next few days.

When the groom and best man arrive, I'll start putting some photos up!

Not so far as I'm aware, Hungry - the Playmoland Royal family appear to be quite boring really. And nothing to report from the Banksbrooks either...

Any scandal in one of the families we need to be aware of?

Thank you, Philomena!

There will be some more photos a bit later, but I'm having to ration them, due to the 30 a day limit!

Our school caretaker is working on a Lego Royal Wedding, I'll post the Instagram link when the photos are up. I knew I could rely on him! 😂

JakeBallardswife · 12/10/2018 09:28

I’m excited !

yorkshireyummymummy · 12/10/2018 09:27

I’m here!!
I’ve said hello to Brendan and waved at the bin van driving round.
The police are very alert but very friendly.

I have my cake and tea tray.
I’m getting VERY excited - Peregrine is a bit of a looker.
I’m waving my flag!

Hoorah for the royal wedding in Playmoland.

ElainaElephant · 12/10/2018 08:58

This is ridiculous. I can't imagine having enough time and money to waste to spend on this.

And yet I adore it. Its completely and utterly fabulous. I'm going to dive into the previous thread later too.

Bravo op!

How far does the Playmo coverage get beamed, I wonder?

Know that it was watched on catch-up in North Carolina and Thailand by brits in both places and today's extravaganza will follow the same pattern.Grin

Anywhere else?

one of the people falls over,then they all go like dominos sounds familiar,specially when dad-dancing occurs -and the dad thinks he can dance with a full pint glass on the crowded dance floor which must not be spilled at any cost! Bloody mayhem occursShockGrin

Horace the weather in Playmoland is lovely and sunny! Actually where I am (Suffolk) it's sunny too. Forecast to be sunny intervals and warm all day, but very windy!

Cherry it has taken a long time! The planning took quite a while. I had to decide all the personnel for the wedding and buy some new sets for it. I then had to plan all the scenes. I think setting them up and photographing them took about 4 days. The worst thing is when you're setting up a large scene and one of the people falls over, then they all go like dominos! But it has all been great fun.
