It sounds like they had one hell of a party!
According to today's News Of The World, Newlyweds William and Katherine Wales had a night filled of music, booze and fun with their friends. And of course, it's been revealed that Prince Harry was up to his old ways and went "crowd diving" during the party!
According to guests Will and Katherine danced there very first dance as a married couple to Ellie Goulding's version of 'Your Song' which she sang live. Later the 300 guests surrounded the happy couple chanting the Beatles tune"She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah."
The main question on everyone's mind has been what were they drinking? Well according to sources they drank Laurent Perrier Champagne, Mojito cocktails and Sambuca Slammers (those wild things)! I knew the modern royals would party it up big time! A source said that they had never seen a party like it:
"Buckingham Palace has never seen anything like it. It was more like a nightclub than the Queen's house."
Among the exclusive guest list were Harry's girlfriend Chelsy Davy, princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, Zara Phillips with fiancé Mike Tindall and tycoon Richard Branson's daughter Holly. The 'nightclub' the source referred to was named 'the palace club' on the night and apparently has a large circular bar with tables filled with candles and get this... Haribo sweets!!!

Ellie Goulding was the main entertainment for the night singing 9 songs on the night including Bryan Adams' 'Summer of '69', The Jacksons' 'Blame It On The Boogie' and of course the Elton John cover 'Your Song'. A guest attending the royal party said it's clear Will chose the song as it was one of Dianna's all time favourites:
"It was a clear yet subtle nod to Princess Diana because she loved that song and William knew that. Elton is also very important to William because of his role at Diana's funeral. Ellie's performance was spectacular and even Prince Charles and Camilla ended up slow-dancing on the floor before they bailed out and left it to the young ones.The highlight of the night seems to have been when the DJ hit the stage and he blared out The Beatles' classic 'All You Need Is Love' one guest said everyone crowded around the newlyweds and serenaded them:
"The song begins with a royal trumpet fanfare so all the guests gathered round William and Kate. During the fade-out The Beatles sing the famous chorus of She Loves You. At this point the DJ faded out the music and the guests started chanting, 'She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah!' It was a very special moment. I had goosebumps."

The DJ then moved on to play some of Wills' favourite modern rap tracks, including Dizzee Rascal's manic 'Bonkers' ( I can't even imagine them bopping to that) and 'Empire State Of Mind' by Jay Z and Alicia Keys.
According to partygoers Prince Harry acted as host on the night, making sure everyone's drink was filled and that everyone was being looked after:
"Harry was running the show and loving it. He was also getting pretty merry himself. He loves a party and this night was obviously no different. He was even jumping off the stage and dancing on window ledges.At one point he ended up on the shoulders of one of his friends with his shirt unbuttoned. But his girfriend Chelsy didn't mind. She knew he was going to be busy on the night and she's used to his behaviour by now!"

The party came to an end just after 2.00 am but Harry dedicated a song to his big brother right before her left. Apparently Harry said: "OK, here's one more song but promise you will leave after! This one is dedicated to my brother." At that point, the DJ played his final track of the evening, rock anthem 'Sex On Fire'.
Sounds like one SERIOUS party!
