It would be interesting to know what the cost was to the Tax Payer, for the Royal Wedding?
Including Security etc.

Does it really matter though? We haven't been asked to open our purses and hand out a bit more this week.
I am sure what was spent on the day was eclipsed by what was raised by increased tourism, television rights, souvenirs etc

Did not say " does it really matter though"
but I did say it would be interesting.
Is the information in B00's link suitably riveting, gulliver?
According to yesterday's Observer, the whole thing cost £32 million pounds. I don't know how much of that was paid by the taxpayer though.
I believe that only the security was paid for out of public funds, but no figure has (as yet) been published.

Well they could have sent me a slice of the wedding cake.
It'll be in the post, Gulliver.
Gulliver, the cake will be distributed some time this week, just watch out for the postman .:+)

No marzipan on mine please.
You're expecting marzipan?
Question Author
At a cost of £ 50,000 it must include marzipan?
at that price they could have got two for the price of one at Warburtons.
Why would anybody be interested except for morbid curiosity the money it brought into the country must far outweighed by the cost.Anyway who really cares.

Blooming hell Trawlerman, you remind me of Blakey , from on the buses
" who really cares " ? The serfs who are waiting on wedding cake, may well be their only available meal for that day .
It must have bought loads of money into the country, but the cost would be interesting gulliver :-) I'd like to know. It was a beautiful ceremony, I loved watching!
It's estimated at 32 million and made half the country happy.
I've just checked my bank account alls well there..no money taken out towards the wedding phew!!
