Fast food for dinner at royal wedding?

Fast food for dinner, the length of Kate's dress, the reliability of the wedding car and William's chances of being left at the altar - these are some of the betting options available for the upcoming royal wedding.

With the wedding of the year less than two weeks away, bookmakers have put up odds for a range of bets - from the interesting to the downright ridiculous - sure to tickle the fancy of punters across the globe. One of the hottest markets is the song to accompany Prince William and Kate Middleton's first wedding dance.

UK bookmaker William Hill has English crooner James Blunt's You're Beautiful a five to one favourite, ahead of seven to one chance Don't Wanna Miss A Thing by Aerosmith and Everything I Do by Bryan Adams. Ladbrokes, on the other hand, has taken a more literal view of the market, with Abba's famous tune Dancing Queen listed at six to one.

As far as food goes, KFC, McDonalds and Burger King are listed as rank 100-1 outsiders to be served as the main course at the wedding dinner, with beef, lamb and chicken the top fancies.
