Ellie Goulding To Play Royal Wedding Reception

April 28, 2011
Ellie Goulding To Play Royal Wedding ReceptionEllie Goulding will perform for Prince William and Kate Middleton at the Royal Wedding, according to reports.

The singer has apparently asked to provide the entertainment at the official reception after the couple tie the knot tomorrow (April 29).

A source told The Sun: "Wills and Kate are huge fans of Ellie and were keen to sign her up.

"Her music goes down well with the young ones, plus a few of the older guests will be nodding their heads along.

"They really wanted a top British talent and the couple are delighted Ellie agreed to perform. She can't wait - although she's a tad nervous."

Goulding's hits include 'Writer' and 'Starry Eyed'. She also enjoyed success with a cover of Sir Elton John's 'Your Song' a Christmas.
