Kate shines for the party at the palace

It was the most nerve-wracking moment of the whole day. No, not Kate Middleton walking down the aisle – Prince Harry’s best man speech. He is infamous for his bad jokes and the Queen and Prince Philip opted to stay away from Buckingham Palace as Harry turned Palace jester partying at the Palace with their close family and friends in celebration of their wedding on Friday night.
And Prince Charles was reportedly in jovial mood – joking about his newly-married son going bald. William hit back with a joked about his father’s waistline.
Friday night joker Prince Harry struck again with a quip about his grandfather the Duke of Edinburgh being dwarfed by Kate Middleton, who stood tall in three-inch heels alongside her prince. His stunning second sister-in-law Pippa, 27, did not appear amused – but she will need to get used to Harry’s humour.
After the lavish Palace party for 300 family and friends Friday night guests slowly began to leave the party from 11pm onwards with the last departing at 3am.
Prince Harry boarded a minibus with around a dozen over people while Kate Middleton and Prince William spent their first night as a married couple in one of the suites at the Palace.
Chelsy Davy was seen leaving in a car with Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie. There was a short 20 second blast of fireworks at the end of the party.
The older guests were seen leaving earlier in the evening before the last of the partygoers got into cars at 3am – or walked off down The Mall.
Prince Charles, who kept a low-profile throughout the wedding say, was this morning back in his Aston Martin car that William used to drive Kate to Clarence House Friday afternoon.
