Why is Crown Princess Mary alone?

Johan T Lindwall thinks that Frederik takes queen Silvia to the dinner table.
EDIT: Lindwall was wrong, but Frederik is at the main table.
The President of Finland, Sauli Niinistö arrives with queen Silvia.

Queen Silivia : Connaught tiara
Cerown Princess Victoria - laurel wreath tiara

Crown Princess Mary - a sort of golden broosh on the one side of her hairdoo
Princess Märtha Louise. her small diamond tiara
Princess Beatrix - Württemberg diamond tiara
 
No tiara on Crown Princess Mary,strange seeing as the other royal ladies are wearing them?

So you mean his 50th and 60th birthdays had been official ones while this is a private? There were also lot of personal friends back there in 1996 and 2006, I think.

They were all private dinners hosted by the King and Queen.
The King decides alone how big and how official he wants them to be. The 60:th birthday dinner was a white tie event in the white sea ballroom but it was as private as this.

It is odd that CP Mary is not wearing a tiara when both Queen Margrethe and Princess Benedikte are (not to mention pretty much all the other royal ladies). She probably got confused with the dresscode and nobody in the Danish royal court bothered to advise her.

Margareta had her aquamarines but what tiaras had Birgitta, Desirée and Christina ?

Baden Palmette om QMII ?

Nice to see Beatrix bring a big Gun ;)
 
Thanks for the photos and updates!:flowers:

I like the ensemble with the turquoise tiara and necklace worn by Princess Sara of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha. Princess Takamado's fashion choices were all right. I liked the lilac kimono.
I am surprised that Crown Princess Mary did not wear a tiara for the gala-banquet

Mary wore new golden aigrette.

Mary's new aigrette (can also be worn as a brooch I guess) & new earrings are by Charlotte Lynggaard.

The aigrette is not my cup of tea. The hairstyle did nothing to bring a new jewellery piece out. A usual tiara could have been a much better choice.
 
Margrethe, at her 75th birthday gala which was a tiara event, wore a hair ornament that to me seems to be the same type as what her daughter-in-law Mary is wearing tonight.
