I'm not sure 5 Star hotels and fashion designers fit my definition of a small business but I suppose you have to give credit for finding some way to fit the wedding in as content.

Just glanced over the post a minute ago, Alastair. I see your point. Here in the U.S. the SBA's definition of a small business might surprise you. We define big business as REALLY big, like MIT and General Electric big. May depend on the cultural context and that of the author. Still a useful discussion. Many of these kinds of businesses can often be described as small business...at least excluding income. Just my brief take.

Thanks for the vote. It is a lot of money. But getting a gig like that in the first place. That would be a trick.

What did I say? Another royal wedding related post. I think it's amazing making that kind of money for one super big job. But then how many jobs do you really need a year? Then again, how many royal weddings are there?
