In the wee morning hours of Friday, April 29, several local businesses will open their doors to dozens of well-dressed patrons in celebration of the royal wedding of Great Britain's Prince William and Kate Middleton.
Both The Old Toad in Rochester and The Pub at Don's Original in Penfield have events planned for the special day. Due to the time difference (London is five hours ahead) and Great Britain's penchant for weekday morning weddings, event attendees will be starting their Friday early: Coverage of the royal wedding begins on most television networks at 6 a.m. EST.
The Old Toad plans to welcome guests at 5:30 a.m. — that's six hours earlier than their usual opening time — for the big day. Known as "a pub from over there, over here
Designer Prom Dresses," The Old Toad is one of Rochester's strongest connections to Great Britain. Even the employees are authentic; the majority are British university students who come to Rochester to gain hands-on experience in the field of hospitality.
Laura Grainger is from Derbyshire, England, and has been working at The Old Toad since August 2010. Like most of her peers, she's watched the royal engagement unfold.
