While tonight's FarmVille update did bring with it a wedding-themed item set, it wasn't called the Royal Wedding theme as many would have guessed, although the significance with the Royal Wedding between Prince William and Kate Middleton is unquestionable. Instead, the theme is called Enchanted Love, and so far, there are two new animals in the theme available for you to purchase.
The first animal is the Royal Guard Duck, which costs 16 Farm Cash and rewards you with 1600 experience points when you purchase one. The other animal is the Royal Horse, which costs more at 26 Farm Cash. As usual, placing the Royal Horse in a Horse Stable with a Stallion will give you a chance to spawn a Royal Foal which can be shared with friends. Don't have the Farm Cash to spend on a horse of your own? Remember to look for free foals posted by your friends on your news feed! I've got a whole collection of cute little foals that I've acquired in such a way, so it's definitely not impossible to still have those exclusive animals on your farm(s)!
The two Enchanted Love animals will be available in the game for the next two weeks, and we'll be sure to let you know if more animals join them before the theme ends.
Are you excited for the Royal Wedding? Will you purchase these items to celebrate the real-world romance being celebrated this week?

FarmVille Enchanted Love Decorations: Royal Palace, Wedding Swing, Rose Petals & More
With the Royal Wedding week now in full swing in the real world (that being the wedding between Prince William and Kate Middleton), tonight's FarmVille update saw Zynga beginning the celebration in the game this evening as well with the release of the new Enchanted Love limited edition item theme. While this items may be English (and definitely symbolic) in nature, they aren't part of the English Countryside theme, and so you're free to place them on either of your farms.
There is one new building in tonight's release, in the form of the large Royal Palace. This grand building costs 45 Farm Cash, and comes with such a large footprint (that is, it takes up so much space) that you might need to reorganize some other items before placing it. Either way, you'll gain 4500 experience points for your purchase, and don't let anyone tell you that this building doesn't present the perfect backdrop for the actual wedding-themed items also released this evening.
You can find out more about those items by meeting us behind the break.
As for the other items released this evening, there are five decorative items to purchase, with one being a re-release from the Valentine's Day theme of this year. That item is the Rose Petals, which is a small ground-cover item of sorts, available for 2,000 coins for a single square of petals.
Otherwise, the four actually new items are split 50/50 between those costing coins and those going for Farm Cash. The Wedding Swing and the Wedding Carriage go for 7 Farm Cash and 18 Farm Cash, respectively, while a few coins can get you the Wedding Archway or the Wedding Cake, which cost just 50,000 or 100,000 coins each. Sure, that still might seem like a fairly large chunk of change, but we've routinely seen items (both buildings and decorations) being priced at 300,000 coins or more, so 100,000 being the cap here really is a treat.
No matter which item you choose to purchase, you'll need to do so within the next two weeks, after which point these items will disappear from the store, likely not to be seen again, unless another member of the royal family decides to get married.
Until then, let us know what you think of these items in the comments. Have you been looking forward to creating your own Royal Wedding in FarmVille, or will you simply imagine that these items are for you and your own sweetie?
