something i didnt get....(spoilers)

First off I love this movie! I just have a ouple of questions that I didnt quite understand.
Ok first of all, Mama Otis explains that the prince must get kissed by midnight in order to become human...so once Tiana kisses him on their edding day, it's way past midnight, so how is the spell broken? Is it just cause it's true love? But Tiana says "I'm a princess, so the spell was broken" implying it was her royalty that transformed the two of them. Also wasn't the deal between the prince and his parents to get money was to marry a rich girl? So wouldnt marrying Tiana not really get him anywhere? It shows her getting up her business and livikng a life of luxery like everything was OK, and they were rich royalty, but Tiana was...well, just a waitress. So it doesn't seem like the king and queen would approve...thats why he was going to marry Charlotte in the first place, for her money. Any thoughts?

It was only until midnight because after that Charlotte would no longer count as a princess due to her father being crowned king of the Mardi Gras parade.

Naveen didn't have a deal with his parents. It was his intention to marry someone rich because his parents had cut him off.

As to why his parents didn't disapprove of his marrying a waitress, suspension of disbelief.

Well, his parents may have believed that he was spoiled and pretentious, that is why the cut him off.

Falling in love with a WAITRESS (and not marrying for just money), shows a lot of growth, and they could of actually been proud of him.

Naveen's father definitely shows how proud he was of his son marrying a 'hot tamale' like Tiana. Naveen looked pretty proud himself, showing her off to mom and dad.
