No ponies for a princess: Royal bride-to-be Kate Middleton will take car rather than fairytale horse-drawn carriage to wedding
By Daily Mail Reporter

Dancing, dinner and a glittering reception at Buckingham Palace after - but Kate Middleton will not take a horse-drawn carriage past thousands of well-wishers lining her route to the Royal wedding.
Instead Miss Middleton will be driven by car to the ceremony at Westminster Abbey, the official programme for the April 29 event revealed today.
But the future princess's possible disappointment over not being whisked to the church by the fairytale form of transport may be allayed by a festive carriage procession afterwards.
Firming up plans: Prince William and his fiancee Kate Middleton will travel to Westminster Abbey where the Archbishop of Canterbury will marry them
After marrying, she and Prince William will be taken on a route that will include several of London's major landmarks on their way to a reception at to Buckingham Palace .
The route of the procession will include Parliament Square, Whitehall, Horse Guards Parade and The Mall.
The roads are likely to be thronged with well-wishers anxious for a glimpse of the couple, who are expected to make a brief appearance on the palace balcony once they arrive.
Among other details released, Clarence House also confirmed that the Archbishop of Canterbury is to carry out the wedding ceremony for the royal couple in April.
He will conduct the service with two other senior Church of England clerics.

The wedding service will begin at 11am, with Miss Middleton arriving by car. The Dean of Westminster will conduct the service, and the Bishop of London will give the address.
Once the couple are married, they will return to Buckingham Palace for their reception.
Once inside the Palace, the Queen will give a reception for the couple and guests drawn from the congregation representing the couple's official and private lives.
The Prince of Wales will give a private dinner, followed by dancing, at Buckingham Palace in the evening.
This will be only for the couple and their close friends and family.

In a nod to the fact that this is a thoroughly modern royal couple, details of the wedding were released on social networking site Twitter.
A MARRIAGE OF COMPLEXITY ... BY THREE CLERICS TO AVOID OFFENCE
Prince William and Kate Middleton’s marriage is to be one of the most complicated Royal weddings the Church of England has ever conducted.
It will be presided over by three clerics in a bid not to offend senior members of the Church.
The couple wanted Prince Charles’s close friend Richard Chartres, the Bishop of London, pictured above right, to conduct the service at Westminster Abbey.
But this would leave John Hall, Dean of Westminster, pictured below right, sidelined at his own church.
Also, as the country’s most senior cleric, Archbishop of Canterbury Dr Rowan Williams was the most obvious candidate to conduct the service.
So a compromise was made and now the Dr Hall will conduct the service while Dr Williams officially marries the couple.
Dr Chartres, who has been a confidant of both princes, William and Harry, will give the address.
The pair announced their engagement in November, nine years after meeting as students at St Andrews University.
Their wedding, on April 29, is expected to draw in a huge worldwide audience.
Britain will enjoy a bank holiday bonanza as millions get an extra day off to celebrate - the royal wedding has been designated an official public holiday.
With Easter falling the weekend before, and May Day holiday on the following Monday, it means many people will enjoy two four-day weekends in a row.
The couple were said to be 'completely over the moon' after getting the spring wedding they wanted in a venue they chose for its 'staggering beauty' and 1,000-year royal history.
They are also keen to make the day a national celebration, and a concert in Hyde Park to mark the occasion has been proposed.
St James's Palace has said the wedding will be paid for by the Queen, the Prince of Wales and the Middleton family, although the taxpayer will pick up the bill for related costs such as policing.
Prince William has strong ties to Westminster Abbey in central London.
His grandmother, the Queen, was married and crowned in the historic place of worship, and the funeral of his mother, Diana, Princess of Wales, was held there.
Clarence House has promised updated information will be posted as soon as it is known, ending the tweets today with the sign off: 'More tweets to follow.'
A nod to modernity... or is Charles just making a Twit of himself?
Prince William and Kate Middleton’s wedding will be the first major Royal wedding in the age of internet social networking.
So it is perhaps fitting that details of the April 29th event have been announced on Twitter.
But Prince Charles’s Clarence House blog could also be construed as man trying far too hard to prove he’s young for a 62-year-old man.
The modern way: Clarence House posts on Twitter revealing details of the wedding
The long string of Tweets, all written in less than 140 characters, were posted over several minutes.
