Anecdotes
The "You're All the World to Me" dance was accomplished by putting a whole room, with attached camera and harnessed cameraman, inside a 20-foot-diameter rotating "squirrel cage."

Gaffes
On the day of the wedding, many of the British flags in the streets are hung upside down. The wider diagonal white stripe of the Union Flag should always be uppermost next to the top of the flagpole.

Citations
Chester: Oh, marriages are very healthy, sir. They say married men live much longer than bachelors.
Tom Bowen: If that's true, they're only trying to outlive their wives so they can be bachelors again.

Générique farfelu

typical of one of America's great art forms

Typical Fred Astaire,in other words great entertainment.Over the years the listing of favorite Astaire numbers has become a favorite pastime of many. This movie contains more than found in any other single show. The dance with clothes tree and using the wall and ceiling are precious. However there is another that is never mentioned that is on my list that delights me no end. How could you believe me when I said I loved you when you know I've been a liar all my life is one of the gems of American entertainment. To borrow an opinion from George Burns. the American musical composers and the theater and movie industry in which they showed their wares is America's greatest contribution to world culture.Royal Wedding is so typical of years of magnificent productions.
