Middleton, prince start website for wedding

THEY'VE got the carriage, the abbey, and a national holiday in their honor. Now Prince William's marriage with Kate Middleton is getting what every young engaged couple needs - a wedding website.

Tech-savvy couples the world over set up websites to feature their nuptials. Such sites give guests a handy way to get directions, browse photos, buy gifts, or even choose the music. Although Internet users aren't likely to get much say in the royal reception's playlist, fans will find photos, updates, videos and more on www.officialroyalwedding2011.org, a site that Prince William's office, St James' Palace, says may be used to stream the event live.

Yesterday much of the site seemed to consist of content from the royals' existing social media ventures.

Also, Elton John and partner David Furnish are planning to attend the wedding.

The singer told a Canadian TV talk show that they have received an invitation to the big event. John was a close friend of William's mother, Princess Diana.
