Prince William's wedding to Kate Middleton is to be on the 29th of April
2011, all things being equal:

(I've thrown in the main fixed stars and a couple of asteroids, just for
completeness' sake).
Here are my comments on the chart. Sorry it took so long.
It's a funny-looking chart - Moon, Mer, Ven, Mar, Jup & Ura within 30
degrees, all except the Moon in Aries. Rather an explosive chart for a
wedding, I'd have thought. (Though this is my first ever wedding chart, so
I may be talking through my hat). But this being the wedding that it is,
there's more involved than simply the relationship. The stellium might sit
rather more comfortably with other aspects of the event. Taking Kjell's
suggestion of 11:00 - 14:00 for the time, the stellium could be in 8th, 9th
or both (Equal House), with Moon & Ura possibly in 7th.
I can't see how the 8th could be appropriate. They don't appear to be
marrying for money (no more than usual, anyway), and one hopes there'll be
no deaths or ghosts! The 9th looks more promising. In ordinary event
charts, a loaded 9th seems to go with events that catch the public's
imagination. The happy couple may be in for even more hoo-ha than Royal
Weddings usually get. That said, Prince William's parents' wedding was
about as huge a public festival as a wedding could be, and there was nothing
in the 9th then except Mars (and possibly the Moon). Incidentally, asteroid
Diana in that chart is conjunct the Sun and NN, and the Moon (another Diana)
is on the Midheaven and in Cancer. Prince Charles's supposedly low-key
second wedding (which still drew massive public interest), to Camilla
Parker-Bowles, had the Sun, Venus, NN and Moon in the 9th - along with
asteroid Camilla, conjunct the Sun and NN!
With Mar, Jup, Mer & Ura involved, some kind of novelty or surprise seems
likely to gain headlines - could anyone suggest more detail? Some kind of
upheaval connected with religion or foreign countries, the 9th's other
connotations, is also a possibility.
If the Sun isn't also in the 9th, it's in the 10th, another good placing for
a state occasion. It also has the only easy aspect in the chart, a trine to
Pluto. The other aspects are ugly - a T-square between Mercury and Venus,
Saturn, and Pluto, with a prickle of minor aspects to aggravate matters. If
I didn't know better than to predict on no experience, I'd almost think they
wouldn't be married that day.
Regulus is nowhere particular. Its only close aspect is a long-running
opposition to Neptune. Speaking of astrological small fry, asteroid Kate is
exactly conjunct Neptune, and probably in the 7th. There is no asteroid
William, and asteroid Williams isn't doing much.
All comments welcome!
