Will’s and Kate are to brandy a social media Royal flush this April 29 as the pair prepare to stream their nuptials live on YouTube for a stamina testing four hour stint.

Incorporating a ‘video wedding book’ for the public to “sign” the flick will track events from the customary balcony wave from Buckingham palace to Westminster Abbey itself.

The move comes as the couple seek to show they’re comfortable in the digital age and will see continuous updates made on the likes of Facebook, Twitter and Flickr alongside a live blog.

Despite this apparent embrace of technology palace officials have vetoed a 3D broadcast of the occasion.
