William and Harry use the last name Wales. Royalty probably doesn't need last names though.
I was watching the specials last night and they showed film of Harry in his Army working uniform and his name tag said "Harry Wales".

Exactly what I thought. Glad I was not alone with this thinking.
Loved the crazy hats. Wish we had more traditions of wearing them here.

Oh dear, please don't take too much account of the press.The Queen did attend the wedding (Charles and Camilla) and it was a wonderful day.Prince William and Harry respect and get along with Camilla, they dearly loved Diana,but love their father too,therefore are happy that he is in a partnership in which he is happy.The wedding on Friday between William and Catherine was wonderful, they were so obviously in love,unlike some other royal marriages,it was a true love match.Their mother was a part of the ceremony, in their thoughts and hearts,as she should be,hence the wearing of her engagement ring.I am not an all out royalist but the day and ceremony lifted the nation in these times of gloom and I watched it with great joy.My prayers go out to all in the U.S. who are suffering from the tornados,I can hardly imagine the sorrow and pain of the destruction. Thank you to all the love and help shared on this site, it is so wonderful to read the generous help and giving.In these times when there is so much war and destruction in the world I can only pray that that same love could be extended to all areas of our lives. Blessings to you all, Letty

They are held in place by elastic bands that are hidden under the hair. Those stand up ones are set on flat caps that sit atop the head, also sometimes covered by the hair.

There were some truly ugly hats shown. The Love Knot thing was scary.

I thought the same thing, too. It didn't even look as if she had done anything to her hair either.

William and Cate looked so very, very happy, and they certainly looked as if they were enjoying every single minute of their beautiful day!! :wink:
