The Royal Wedding between Prince William and Kate Middleton occurred only last week. The anticipation leading up to the event in the prior weeks seemed almost equivalent to a presidential inauguration. Many even compared it to fairytales because of it's extravagance and glamour. But is the Royal Wedding really a "Fairytale Wedding?" After reading several original fairytales, I discovered that my initial impression of fairytales, created by Disney movies, was completely false. Most original fairytales are gruesome and contain images that aren't appropriate for young children. While the stories often contain characters of royal descent, every other aspect is far from what is depicted by Disney's illustrations. Thus, I think the Royal Wedding is more correctly defined as a "Disney Wedding," due to its perfectly lavish characteristics.
Kate Middleton's arrival to the wedding looks as if it could be a scene from Disney's Cinderella. Gorgeous dress, red carpet, and a crowd of excited on-lookers are all elements that create an image fit for a Disney animation.
