Thankyou very much, mitchell :rose:

 

 

BB article with description of the wreaths and orders at the casket.

https://www.billedbladet.dk/kongelige/danmark/smuk-krans-fra-boerneboernene-til-prins-henrik

"Beautiful wreath from the grandchildren of Prince Henrik"

 

The large white wreath at the front with white ribbons says "Daisy"

The 2 wreaths in blue and red leaning against the purple dais are from Frederik & Mary, and Joachim & Marie

The purple wreath laying on the carpet slightly right of centre has "Grand Papa" on the ribbons

Leaning on the sides of the dais are wreaths from QM's sisters: Princess Benedikte (in Danish colours) and Queen Anne Marie & King Constantine (in Greek blue), beside another from their family.

During the past days, more than 13000 people have paid their respects to Prince Henrik at Christiansborg Church.

Yesterday, there were queues of severeal hundred meters and up to 90 min waiting.

Today, 1 pm there is a special event at Christiansborg Palace Church, Castrum Doloris, for about 200 invited guests, friends, godchildren

and representation from the many patronages and Danish industry but I haven't seen mentioning of the family attending.

Henrik's family visiting

Henrik's brother, Etienne de Laborde de Monpezat and sister, Catherine de Monpezat.

I think the young man is the nephew, Charles Henri Keller, who works at the Danish Royal Court.

After the memorial ceremony at Christiansborg Palace Church, the invited guests gathered for 'gravøl' (grave beer) at Christiansborg Palace.

Crown Prince Frederik and Prince Joachim welcomed and greeted the arriving guests.

 

"It was a surprise for the guests at the gathering at Christiansborg after the memorial ceremony, when Crown Prince Frederik and Prince Joachim

welcomed the guests."

Prince Henrik's car, Krone 101, transported his sons to Cristiansborg Palace today.
