Monaco royal wedding party begins!

Charlene Wittstock, SA soon-to-be newest princess of the Mediterranean principality of Monaco is gearing up for the final leg of her wedding to Prince Albert II.

The festivities began yesterday - glamour, romance and thanks to some last minute rumours, suspense and intrigue around Charlene having cold feet.

Today will be the couple's civil wedding on tomorrow the royal union will be solemnised by a very public Catholic religious ceremony.

For nine centuries Monaco has been run by the Grimaldi family, the crown passing through the male line. In 2002, fearing Albert would die without an heir, Monaco changed its constitution to allow a princess to inherit.
