The ring. The dress. The flowers. The party. The guests. What can we say? We’re obsessed. After years of will-they-or-won’t-they debates, Kate Middleton—excuse us, Catherine—will join Prince William at the altar on April 29. Join us as we celebrate a fairytale dream come true.

Living the sweet life

Lifetime, the station of based-on-real-life dramas that we can’t seem to turn off, is gearin’ up for the big day with Royal Wedding of a Lifetime, a six-part series about Kate and Wills. On Monday, April 18, check out “A Day to Remember” for insider deets on the wedding procession, ceremony and reception.

Thursday, April 21 brings “A Tale of Two Princesses,” which will parallel the lives of William’s mom, Princess Diana, and the soon-to-be Princess Catherine. It’s followed by two more episodes giving a closer look at Kate’s dress and the reception meal. Friday, April 22 brings the series to a close with a look at the duo’s love story and a peek into the future.

Go online official

Wedding websites are turning into a huge trend, and Kate and William have followed the pack. Check out officialroyalwedding2011.org for behind-the-scenes videos, lots of details on the procession and reception, and the couple’s Twitter and Flickr feed. One more question: Are they Facebook official?

Be a knit wit

Shortly after the engagement was announced, one of the cutest books of the year arrived at GL headquarters. We can’t get enough of Fiona Gable’s Knit Your Own Royal Wedding. Even if your knitting aptitude extends only to scarves, you’ll love flipping through this oh-so-adorable book filled with how-tos and fun pics. Our fave character? That would be Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, complete with accompanying corgi.

Find a seat in the Google grandstand

The amazing folks at Google Maps have expanded their 3D views to include the entire procession route that will be followed by the newlyweds. The route begins at Westminster Abbey, passes the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben, the home of the Prime Minister at Number 10 Downing Street and the tree-lined Royal Mall before concluding at Buckingham Palace.
