Critical Choices

• 78 percent of U.S. singles are skeptical of Kate's wedding cake choice and say they would not serve fruitcake at their own wedding.

• 75 percent of women and 59 percent of men say that Prince William, who’s planning on going band-less, should stick with tradition and wear a wedding band.

Regal Dreams … and Nightmares

• 57 percent of women surveyed say the royal wedding makes them dream of finding their own soul mate.
