This book is the ultimate behind-the-scenes, upstairs downstairs look at the Middleton-Windsor romance in the lead up to the Royal Wedding of Wills and Kate. Alison Jackson's photographs reveal all, providing a glimpse into all the events we have imagined but never thought we would see.

This largely chronological retelling of the romance of Wills and Kate and the run-up to the Royal Wedding will include pictures of the genealogical background of the two sides; details of the early days of their courtship; of how the romance blossomed then briefly faltered, and of the endless waiting for Kate - the ring-gazing, gym regime, deportment and daily wash and blow. Then there will be Wills' inability to pop the question; Kate's disappointment, his discussions with brother Harry and his preparations for the proposal and behind-the-scenes practice put in for the public announcement.

Not to mention the fun of the wedding preparations; drawing up the guest list, designing the menus and picking the wedding dress, while a variety of celebrity guests - including Elton John, the Beckhams and Cheryl Cole - choose and try on their outfits for the special day. We have the stag and hen nights; the arrival of the gifts from heads of states from around the world; and, of course, the shots of the The Big Day that you simply won't see anywhere else.
