I dunno. Surely that "madness" is good for the British economy. Think of all the makers, sellers, and buyers of all those hideous wedding commemorative tchotchkes. ;D

Not a state wedding, but they declared the day a holiday. Who else gets that done for their wedding day?

I'm not complaining!!
I think the reason its not a state wedding is because the actual wedding itself is not being paid for by the country. The Queen Charles and the Middeltons have contributed to it from their own funds. However, the policing etc has been paid by the country.
