ayvee Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 First, thanks for all the links to photos! This event started way too early for me. I am a bit confused by the guests at this event. How come King and Queen of Sweden were present, but Kings and Queens of Spain and Netherlands were not there? I saw Princess Benedikte, but not Queen Anne-Marie and King Constantine. I also did not see any of Princess Benedikte's children and Queen Anne-Marie's children. Do you think this means that non of QMII's nephews and nieces will be at the dinner tonight? I was hoping to see lots of tiaras tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gudinde Posted April 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 Hi ayvee. Let's see ... The king and queen of Spain had left Denmark before the morning song event. The other visiting royals from last night's dinner stayed for the morning greeting at the queen's window. The official reception from the City of Copenhagen included the Queen's sisters & brother-in-law and also the other Scandinavian royals (and CP couples). King Constantine and Queen Anne-Marie were seated beside Crown Princess Mette-Marit, while Princess Benedikte was seated as part of the Danish Royal House, in the centre of the room. I think we can still hold out hope that the Queen's nieces and nephews may be present tonight, ayvee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will look through photos again and see if I can spot them. I'm surprised that the King and Queen of Spain didn't stay for another night, but perhaps they have things to attend to in Spain. I will keep my fingers crossed about the Queen's nieces and nephews! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
