March 23, 2011— -- Prince William and Kate Middleton can go straight from Westminster Abbey to your personal playlist.

For the first time in history, the entire April 29 royal wedding ceremony — including the couple's vows — will be released digitally within hours of the service though Britain's Decca Records to online retailers such as iTunes, royal officials said Wednesday.

William's office and the record company said that an official audio recording of the event — as a CD, vinyl or cassette — will then hit stores on May 5.

Decca Records — which also recorded the wedding of Prince Charles and Diana — said the physical album will include a special collector's booklet featuring the complete order of service, the readings, vows, hymns and blessings, and all the music from the ceremony.
