Westminster Abbey has been declared a Tweet-free zone.

Event organizers have arranged for signal-blocking technology to be set up in Westminster Abbey in order to prevent Royal Wedding guests from Tweeting details about the ceremony (not to mention dishing dirt on other guests). The ban will be in effect from early Friday morning and throughout the ceremony.

As disappointing as it is to learn that we won’t be able to follow along with the ceremony via live Tweets, NewsFeed supposes that any measure reducing the chances of an embarrassing ringtone interrupting the wedding is probably for the best. (via Yahoo)
