The lavish wedding was held at Copenhagen's Lutheran cathedral

The Danish royal family overspent by 17m kroner ($3m) in 2004, its first annual financial report has revealed.

The 59m kroner Europe's oldest monarchy received from the taxpayer to run their household with 125 staff was insufficient to meet last year's costs.

The family was in the red mainly due to the cost of Crown Prince Frederik's wedding and Queen Margrethe's purchase of a new car, the report indicated.

However, it did not offer any detailed breakdown of the expenditures.

"Most of the amount can be traced to the celebration of the crown prince's wedding in May 2004," the report said.

In addition to the wedding of Crown Prince Frederik to Australian commoner Mary Donaldson, who became Crown Princess Mary, the document put the overspend down to extensive renovations to the newlyweds' palace. It also revealed that the royal house was worth 12.8bn kroner ($2.2bn). Denmark's monarchy was founded by the Viking King Gorm the Old in the 10th century.

Queen Margrethe, Princess Benedikte and Queen Anne-Marie have invited Mstislav Rostropovich to give a concert in memory of their mother Queen Ingrid. It will take place 5 years after her death, on 6 November 2005 in Tivoli, Copenhagen - in the presence of Ingrid's family. Rostropovich was a friend of hers and also gave a concert when she turned 80. And in 2000 he attended her funeral.

It seems that they will join the Queen and Princess Benedikte, on the morning of May 5th, in marking the 60th aniversary of the liberation of Denmark, in Mindelunden. At least from what I read on BT.dk.

Are there any pictures of TRH in Copenhage yesterday yet?

[norwegianne]

Picture from the memorial service in Holmens Kirke today. Princess Benedikte and Queen Margrethe.

I'm not quite certain who the people sitting next to them are, but may it be the Duke and Duchess?

Yes, I think you're right that it's the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester in that picture. I think Richard (barely, barely visible) is sitting next to Benedikte and Brigitte is dressed in the lilac.

[HMQueenElizabethII]

That's right Norwegian.That's the Duke and the Duchess of Gloucester.But where did you find the pic,i did not see it anywhere.

[HMQueenElizabethII]

But i like Princess Benedikte.It looks nice.

[HMQueenElizabethII]

[norwegianne]
