Staff and residents at the award-winning Gibraltar Care Village joined the rest of the country celebrating the wedding of Prince William and Catherine Middleton by holding their own street style party.
The residents gathered in each of their large living area just before the wedding proceedings began and were given a cup of tea to toast the happy couple along with home-made cakes.
Wearing home-made patriotic bowler hats and waving the Union flag the residents and their family members watched in anticipation as Catherine Middleton walked down the aisle of Westminster Abbey to meet her future husband.
As the happy couple exchanged their vows and Prince William put the ring on his beautiful wife’s finger the excited residents toasted the newly weds with more tea and scones with clotted cream and jam.
After the ceremony and the famous balcony kisses everyone was treated to a very party lunch with trifle, sandwiches, crisps and biscuits while traditional British music was played.
Gibraltar Care Village manager, Stephane Beaumont, told us: “Everyone thoroughly enjoyed watching the Royal wedding especially our residents.
“Many of them have witnessed different generations of the Royal family getting married including the Queen so it was nice for them to see how different they were.
“Everyone was commenting on how beautiful Catherine Middleton looked in her stunning wedding dress. There were even a few tears of happiness.
“It was just so nice to be part of such an historic event.”
