Before she officially becomes a member of the royal family, Kate Middleton will be driven to the Westminster Abbey with her father, in a Rolls Royce Phantom VI. This isn\u2019t just any old car though; quite strangely it is the same Rolls Royce in which Prince Charles and Camilla the Duchess of Cornwall were attacked by student protestors. The car hasn\u2019t been used since and is now being driven to usher Kate into holy matrimony.<\/p>\n<p>After the wedding the bride and groom will be driven out of the Abbey to Buckingham Palace in sheer storybook style\u2026 in a lovely open top carriage! This lovely 109 year old red and gold horse drawn State Landau carriage will be used to usher out the newlyweds in the same august style as the prince\u2019s parents. This carriage was built for Queen Elizabeth\u2019s grandfather King Edward VII and is more famously known to the adoring public to have carried out Prince Charles and Lady Diana after their wedding in 1981. There is also a back-up option against the unpredictable weather &#8211; \u00a0in case of a downpour the royal wedding couple will use the glass coach used by the late Princess Di on her wedding day.<\/p>\n<p style=\\\"text-align: center;\\\"><img class=\\\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2500\\\" title=\\\"royal wedding carriage\\\" src=\\\"http:\/\/www.marrymeweddings.in\/wpblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/royal-carriage.jpg\\\" alt=\\\"royal wedding carriage\\\" width=\\\"450\\\" height=\\\"288\\\" \/><\/p>\n<p>After the wedding, the prince and his new princess will leave followed by a procession of four other coaches carrying members of the wedding party and family.
