The Queen of England is the Royal that most-seen having bouquets in her hand on every engagements she takes.I used to read on the British Royal Website and it said that after the engagements, for example if visiting to a hospital, Her Majesty wants those flowers to give like gifts to old people, patients,... in the hospital.I think Her Majesty is a really lovely and wonderful person.

I find that the Danish royals get the most beautiful bouquets. They are always so lush and full and so colourful. I have read that the Danish royal court sends the association or organization a description of what the Queen, Crown Princess or Princess will be wearing and the bouquet is co-ordinated appropriately, which I think is a very lovely gesture.

This one is one of my all time favourites that Crown Princess Mary has been given, when she went to christen a rose. I noted in a previous thread that I thought it would make a beautiful bridal bouquet, too.

CP Mary once carried a very pretty bouquet that had purple pansies in it. I believe it was sometime right before her marriage. I can't find the picture right now, but it stands out to me because the dark purple of the pansies went so well with her colouring.
