William and Kate Married in Legoland

One of the United Kingdom’s best loved attractions has put its own spin on the upcoming royal wedding between Prince William and Kate Middleton.

As from April 1, visitors to Legoland, near the royal home of Windsor, will be able to see a model version of William and Kate’s nuptials – complete with Buckingham Palace and crowds.

[Sue Kemp, Legoland Divisional Director]: 
„Well we open this weekend – 15th anniversary – and it’s a perfect opportunity to showcase the skills of our fantastic model makers. We’re only two miles from Windsor Castle and with the royal wedding so close now and lots of people very interested to come into Miniland and see the showcase for the royal wedding that we have.“

Creating a miniature replica of the wedding is a pain-staking process, according to model maker Paula Laughton.

[Paula Laughton, Model Maker]: 
„The actual models – it takes about an hour or so just to do the models and it’s made out of about 30 pieces of Lego. But because there’s a lot of detail in those models, it takes about two hours to complete each model on those.“

Royal wedding planners will have their work cut out trying to match the spectacular creation at Legoland.
