Paris Hilton Wants a Royal Wedding  6/30/05

Paris Hilton wants to marry her fiancé Paris Latsis in England, and has asked Prince Charles for permission to wed in St Paul's Cathedral, Westminster Abbey or Windsor Castle.

Only members of the British royal family are allowed to tie the knot in the churches, but Hilton has her heart set on a fairy tale ceremony and has sent a begging letter to Buckingham Palace.

She says, "I've always wanted to be a princess on my big day and only a wedding in England could make that happen.

"I've got my heart set on a ceremony at St Paul's or Westminster but I've had to write to the Prince to ask for a dispensation because I don't qualify. I really want to get married at Christmas though as I'd love to have snow and log snow and log fires, so Windsor is a cool back-up.

"Prince Charles got married there so it's good enough for me. I'm going to arrive in a horse and carriage.

"There'll be roasted chestnuts and carol singers. Really traditional stuff.

"I'll be having parties in Miami and Los Angeles to celebrate the big event.

There'll be a month of partying.

"But the actual event is going to have a royal theme and London is the only place to do that. I'm the closest thing to American royalty anyway.

"It's fitting really as the Queen is married to a Greek (PRINCE PHILIP was born in Greece) and so will I be."
