It's been one of the most talked about events this year and, in two more sleeps, Kate Middleton will marry her prince.
About 2 billion people worldwide are expected to tune in to watch the royal wedding on Friday and I will be one of them.
We'll have the TV on at
work to watch as the glamorous guests arrive and then I'll be heading to a friend's house to watch the main event at a royal wedding party.
If you haven't made plans but are keen to check out Princess Catherine's dress, see our guide to watching the royal wedding on page A5 of today's Bay of Plenty Times.
Also on the same page, Michele McPherson talks to two Tauranga couples who met at the same university as Prince William and Kate - one of them even lived on the same street as the famous couple.
The local couples are now friends and will enjoy the royal wedding together on Friday.
If the royal nuptials are not your thing, there will be plenty of sports action on the box on Friday - we'll have NRL and Super 15 previews in the paper over the next two days.
Today, sports editor Kelly Exelby meets the team onboard Team New Zealand's Volvo Ocean Race yacht, which was forced to spend an extra night in Tauranga due to a lack of wind.
