Expressen has a story about Daniel´s absence from the Kreuger wedding:
Därför nobbade Daniel bröllopet/That´s why Daniel didn´t come to the wedding
Expressen tells that because Victoria refused to comment Daniel´s absence from the wedding, there were speculations about if the relationship is on a crisis. Expressen can now tell that this is all wrong.
A source tells: Daniel would have wanted to be at the wedding, he has been a good friend of Lotta and Toffe for a long time. But the wedding was at the same time than another thing Daniel had planned for a long time.
Daniel Westling has not forgotten his roots in Ockelbo, he spends still time with a lot of friends he grew up with.
The source tells: That´s a gang who have known eachother from childhood and they gather together sometimes. Now they had a skiing trip planned for a long time, and that was impossible to change the plans.

It has also been speculations that the absence of Daniel was a tactical thing from the court, to make him more interesting before the wedding.
The source tells: That´s ridiculous, so wrong information. He just couldn´t come to wedding, it´s so simple as that. Why would the court want to hide him?
Daniel Westling sent his congratulations to the bride and the groom via Victoria.
Another source says: They knew that he couldn´t come and they had no problem with that.
The court will not comment about why Daniel wasn´t at the wedding.
- We work with the royal family, not with Daniel Westling, says Nina Eldh, the Director of the Information and Press Department of the court.

I just saw Madeleine's dress in this week's OK! magazine. Worn by Paris Hilton.

An article about the evening at the opera:
Expressen/Kungafamiljen trivdes på operan
The article tells that the Royal Family enjoyed their evening at the opera.

Indeed.
The dress looked quite different on both. Madeleine chose a bigger size and black instead of blue.
Here is the paris Hilton Version of the dress:

I like this dress. Actually I like the version Madeleine wore a little better!

I too think Princess Madeleine looks very elegant. As for Paris Hilton..ZZzzzz, who cares. One question, does Queen Sylvia seek fashion advice from her daughters? Perhaps she might. She is very beautiful, but sometimes her clothes reflect the 60's and 70's. Maybe they are her favorites, or she feels more comfortable in those styles.

My humble opinion, Madeleine being a blond would have looked better in a blue color, love the dress though and neutral stockings.

Yes, the one is working a lot more

If Miss Hilton would have had more "support" in the...er...chest area, the dress would have looked better at her than at Madeleine. At the latter one...it has a touch of "pregnancy fashion"

IMO the Queen was underdressed with her costume...

well, seems that they had a good time together.
I like the pictures where Madde put her head on Victoria's shoulder - very sister-to-sister photo

and its so sweet that they changes their sits to be closer to their lovers.

thanks a lot for the photos

Queen Silvia looks more stylish then her daughter.

Silvia's outfit is not her very best ever; but elegant anyway.
She looked lovely.

Victoria's dress... I am not crazy about it at all.
I don't like the sleeves... somehow her whole look was boring. Maybe she should have worn bigger jewels with it or a more exiting hairdo.
