I wonder what Mette-Marits drinking.
It looks like a mojito.

Madeleine and Carl Philip seem to be especially close right now.

What did the king say in his speech?

The King's speech can be found here in English.

Some parts of his speech:
"the wedding between the Crown princess Victoria and Mr Daniel Westling that will take place …ehm …Tomorrow isn’t it?"

"You can feel the joy and youth and optimism in their eyes."

Today is the big day! I wonder if either of them was able to sleep with all the excitement?

I'd like to congratulate both of them and wish them a very happy future! May God pour many of his blessings on them and their families!

Amazing Victoria yesterday, and amazing concert. I couldn't expect something so beautiful. Here is video of the ending part of the concert, where the kids sing to Victoria and Daniel: Festkonserten: Avslutningen - Det kungliga bröllopet | SVT Play
and Silvia is in tears in the end!

I have a big problem, as many of us, I think. Yesterday and today, I have time for nothing else than this wedding. Nowadays when you can watch the events via internet, it´s wonderful. And the finnish TV Yle showed the concert last night. I had a little trouble sleeping after that wonderful concert, it was such a special evening.

Apparently the King will walk in with Victoria but they will meet Daniel halfway down the aisle and the couple will walk to the altar together. This was the compromise between the Royal family and the Church. Normally the bride and groom walk into the church together. In Sweden it is not a tradition to have your father walk you down the aisle. There was a lot of debate about whether it is right for Victoria to be walked down the aisle or not.

EDIT: Oops. LadyFinn corrected me. I had the wrong information. Victoria & the King will walk in together until almost the end of the aisle. Then Daniel & Victoria will walk the last few steps before reaching the altar.

The representant of the court said a couple of days ago, that Victoria will come to the church with the King and she will walk with Daniel just a few steps before the altar, not the half way.

Thanks for the info. LadyFinn! That sounds a lot better than the halfway idea that I had read earlier. I am very pleased to hear this!

Letizia Ortiz y Rocasolano didn't seem to be very happy at the concert.

Letizia Ortiz y Rocasolano hardly knows how to behave like a real Princess.She'd better learn something from Queen Sofia.

this is not a thread for critisising letizia. this is the thread of victoria and daniel pre-wedding events. why ruin such a lovely event with such negative comments? letizia is proving to do her job extremely well and is well appreciated in spain, with a good percentage thinking she is ready to succeed sofia.

can somebody post the clip when the presenter made jokes about the frederik,mary,haakon and mette marit?
THANK YOU

yes, please! i'd love to know as well

they all seemed happy with the comments.

i loved this set of pictures - were they taken after the concert? apparently the young royals went to party together

oh, rosario looks great! what a lovely dress. she is with victoria and maxima one of the winners tonight. pure loveliness.

I'm sure Daniel is still growing into his role. And I'm sure,in his love for Victoria, he doesn't want to draw attention away from her. He really appears to be a true gentleman.

i agree! daniel is winning points on me. he is such a gentleman and seems so mature and stable. he is definitely and will be such a support to victoria. i loved the excitement in his face yesterday and how he looked at everything with such humbleness and as if everything was new to him but still wanted victoria to shine. he will make a fine consort.

Thanks for all the pictures, pitty Victoria & Daniel didnt party with the royals who did at the Grand hotel but I guess they need their rest. I thought Victoria looked really happy so did Daniel at the ocncert. Found it quit ecute how Daniel helped Victoria with her dress. I though last nigh was the best she every looked.

Carlota, i have checked their program for today( I live in the uk), but there is no mention of it. Please do not get my hopes up like this, are you really sure? It would be so wonderful. If it is true, you just delivered the best news of the day, as my laptop is very dated and slow, and probably won't support any live feed without acting up.
