People who placed bets on ivory got a big payout Friday morning
 
It wasn't just wedding planners and the billions of well wishers from around the globe waiting to see what Kate Middleton was wearing as she said her vows to Prince William. Thousand of people had a lot of money riding on it too.

Former Saskatchewan resident Susie Sourwine works with the British online gambling website Betfair.com and says there were bets being placed on everything leading up to the wedding. "The wedding dress colour was one of the most popular markets. 4-6 odds for ivory, 5-2 for white and 7-2 for champagne. At the wide outset, red is 1000-1."

Sourwine adds people were betting on anything from the colour of the Queen's hat to whether Prince Harry would forget the ring.
