Love Story Of Prince William And Kate Middleton

LONDON: The fairytale wedding of Prince William with his long-time girlfriend Kate Middleton was celebrated all over the UK today but the 'street party' at the Clarence Street in Southall, where Kate's grandfather once lived, was special as it was celebrated in typical Punjabi style with Bhangra dance and folk music.

While the wedding proper at the historic Westminster Abbey was shown on the big screen set up near a stage at the Clarence Street in Southall, there were typical scenes of Band Baja, Bhangra and Doli organised by Virendra Sharma, NRI Labour MP .

Southall, primarily a South Asian residential district, also known as "Little India".

Local businesses including TKC's Restaurant and Chandni Chowk Restaurant owned by leading NRI hotelier Baljit Komal helped to sponsor the food, drink and festivities.

Sharma said, "As Kate Middleton's grandfather lived in Clarence Street, Southall, it seemed a great idea to hold a street party in celebration of the Royal Wedding there. " Southall residents are proud of their connection with the newest member of the Royal family. It is a great day for everyone involved."
