Death and Funeral of Count Carl Johan Bernadotte: May 5 and 14, 2012


If you have answers, please help by responding to the unanswered posts.
I wonder why Daniel, Carl Philip and some other guests are wearing white ties. Is it a Swedish tradition ?
I remember my dad telling me something of the sort. That close family wear black ties while more distant friends and family wear white at funerals. I don't know how common it is or when and where. But I have a vauge memory of something like it.

google says that white ties are worn by men very close to the family, while other men wear a black tie.
