Thanks, irishthanhy !
They have updated the official website since I posted that message.

I love Maria Teresa's tiara - it's one of my favourite tiaras.
And Guillaume looks so posh!

Thanks for the Video. Tessy is wearing the turqiose tiara which was worn by Maria teresa for the State Visit from Italy. And Alexandra wears the small floral tiara which was worn by Archduchess Marie Christine on her Wedding Day.

Fascinating. You get the impression the GD is taking care of every single detail.
BTW - she really looks attractive in her casual day dressing - seems it is the evening wear she is struggling with.
Maybe she should fire her style advisor....
But of course - again -this is my personal opinion. No offense meant to anybody.

Are there any gala pictures?

I found a picture here of the National Day gala. I think Maria Teresa looks fantastic and that tiara Oh ya and HGD looks very cute too.

Hooray: it’s a Tiara Alert from GD Maria Teresa at the National Day Gala! It’s a little tough to see here, but MT is wearing Grand Duchess Marie-Adélaïde’s Tiara, a diamond tiara with leaf and floral motifs.

Thanks for those, they all look great! By any chance do you have a transcript of what the Grand Duchess is saying to Alexandra and Tessy? And were they getting ready at the Palace? Or the Chateau where they normally live? Thanks

[Princess Robijn]

I can´t remember, sorry. But I remember thinking that they sounded like any ordinary mother with her daughters,which is great IMO.

If I remember correctly they were at the Chateau and that they were basically talking about what to do with their hair and who would go first and second, Tessy's hair was already done at that point.

Thanks all, I appreciate it. I guess I need to brush up on my French
