But the Wedding of Silvia and Carl Gustaf was around noon not in the afternoon. I liked this dresscode and how it was for most of the Royal Weddings in the 60's more then the one at the recent Weddings in the Netherlands, Belgium, Spain etc.. It looks more formell then short gowns or costumes.

You are right, Stefan. I totally forgot the Swedish Wedding was a noon-wedding.

Well, anyway: I guess his will be a normal Scandinavian wedding. Marie will get a normal Royal title (Her Royal Highness) and so I could not imagine that the guests won't wear tiaras... okay it will be low-key... well, I guess the only thing we can do is to lean back and to wait until may. Then we'll know more.

I am all in favour of a tiara wedding, the more diamonds the better!

It will be interesting to see what tiara Marie will use, a new one or something from her mother-in-law .... I am all in favour of the golden poppies

If Mary got given a wedding tiara which wasn't from the royal collection, I can't imagine Marie being given one that is of royal provenance.

I think it will be one from auction.

Well, Alexandra did get something with royal provenance and Mary did already use the divine ruby parure, which came from the Beauharnais' so...

But Margrethe doesn't have that many uncoloured tiara's left, so getting one from an auction might be the wisest (and done before). But just let us envision the golden poppies on a wedding dress.... wouldn't that be ...uhm...interesting?

Default tiara

I think only 2 could given. the baden palmette tiara, but as the Queen herself wears it frequently it is not very likely or the small floral tiara. But the second belgongs to a Family Foundation and could thus only be a loan and not a gift. So i think she will get a new one. It woulöd also be great if Marie gets a new tiara and is lent the baden palmette tiara for the Wedding.

I cringe at the mental picture of Marie with that golden poppy horror on her head on her wedding day. Ysbel is right Marengo, you are bad!

Marie will probably receive a newly purchased tiara for the wedding just as Mary did.

What are the "golden poppies"? I tried to find the answer in the thread, but could not. Does anyone have a picture?

Is that...thing...a tiara, jewels or an headpiece? It's just ugly and awful!!!

It certainly won't look good with a wedding gown..or any dress for that matter!

^^ Now you understand! Marengo obviously has a rather..... ummm.... shall we say "dry" sense of humor. I can't think of much that poppy horror would go with, but a weddng dress is most certainly not on the list.

^^ Unfortunately yes, and they are no more appropriate for a bride than the golden poppy hair net tiara thingy. Is there a full moon or something. The Mods seem to be acting a bit strange.

I think the golden poppies suit Queen Magrethe but I honestly couldn't see them on everyone else.

Uggghhhh...it looks like something that would be worn by one of the female cast members on "Star Trek". It is hideous!
