Wedding of Sir Paul McCartney Celebrated in Houston

Oct. 12, 2011 - PRLog -- The celebration of Sunday’s marriage of Sir Paul McCartney and American Nancy Shevell has sent waves of good wishes and congratulations to the happy couple.  A civil service in a simple dress designed by the groom’s daughter, Stella McCartney, the wedding celebration continued at Sir Paul’s London home in the St. John’s Wood neighborhood.  These  waves are being felt all the way across the Atlantic.  

Guy Streatfeild, a British expatriate, expresses his congratulations to the newlyweds from his British imports store, British Isles.  Located in a popular shopping area near Rice University in Houston, Texas, British Isles offers Beatles mugs, pens, tin lunchboxes, tote bags, and journals bearing the images of albums such as Yellow Submarine, Abbey Road, Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, and Revolver, as well as the youthful images of the Fab Four when Beatlemania hit.  

“The Beatles are British Icons,” says Streatfeild, “ they are as iconic as Dickens, Shakespeare, and Queen Elizabeth.  They will always be around and we will always celebrate them.”  Carol Streatfeild, co-owner and spouse, enjoys that love is in the air again.  “During the Royal Wedding in the Spring, there was a palpable excitement in the store.  Customers were coming in for memorabilia such as the William and Catherine commemorative mug, Walker’s Shortbread Commemorative Wedding Tin, and a chance to get their photo taken with the life sized Royal Couple. “  The Royal Wedding Collection and Beatles merchandise can be purchased at British Isles, in addition to their wide collection of fine china, tea, and gourmet food.
