On Sat. May 19, Anglophiles the world over will be tuning in to watch the latest royal wedding — the marriage of England’s Prince Harry and American Meghan Markle.

Now if you haven’t been following the breathless coverage of “the spare” and his Suits actress bride-to-be’s wedding planning, a quick primer: The prince and Markle will be saying “I do” in front of 600 guests at St. George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle beginning around 4:30 a.m. EST. And if you’re a true fan, you’ll be up too, coffee in hand, ready to watch the never-ending parade of nobility in preposterously larger and larger hats — it’s like the Kentucky Derby on steroids.

Of course, any good viewing party wouldn’t be complete without a fitting spread and that’s where local caterer Hamby’s comes in. The company has designed a viewing party package for $99 that feeds between 10-15 “dedicated enthusiasts.”
