[iceflower]

Thanks for information!
It might seem strange to you, but I envy those countries that have cool/cold summers. Less sun means no tan.

You are most welcome Well, it's not always that way and we've already had several sunburn days in spring

It is great to see Princess Gloria attending various event. Most outfit are well-chosen. Although the necklace is monumental, she does pull it off.

Princess Elisabeth's ensembles are neat and feminine. Her face appears to be make-up free. ... or is it no make-up make-up look?

Albert Gloria and Xenia attended all the wedding of Princess Isabelle von Hohenberg. Of course they did not arrive together. Alberts comments about wedding rumors (literally translated) " You're asking the wrong man about future marriages". Xenia was described "as beautiful as a model". You can see two pictures, one of her and one of him and Gloria, in Bunte.

Hi Seraphine, thanks for your news about Bunte. I' got it, Bunte says they arrive together but then don't sit together. ...Bunte doesn't write any more that Xenia's father is “an successful Austrian businessman”, because now every body knows about his broken business. ...Now Bunte writes that Xenia is a landscape architect from Vienna, no word about her father like Bunte used to do a year ago.

 

[Seraphine]

Dear Adelheid (nice to hear of you again ): You're right that they didn't sit togeher, but of course they also didn't arrive in one car or something.

Talking about Maculan's business ocpation - Xenia might be officially called a landscape architect but does she have a job ? I guess no !
I wonder if she has EVER worked at all.

If Xenias father is successful ? No idea what he really is. He failed often in his career but he also manages to feed all his children ( with the help of his wife). We don't know his tax report and his contacts. (and honestly I don't want to know at all !).

Yes, Princess Gloria looks very happy. Good to see; you feel like waving back.

An article from Vanity Fair about the lavish 60th birthday party for Prince Johannes of Thurn und Taxis. Quite entertaining to read:

Thank You for the link.
As I've seen so far, Thurn und Taxis are not mentioned in the list of guests to the upcoming Luxembourg Royal Wedding.
Have they been present at other royal or princely weddings so far?

They're not Royal and not that close relatives so I guess they are not on the list but at least Gloria and the Fuerst are invited. IMHO, of course.

 

[Marengo]

I only remember her at the Cadaval-Anjou wedding and many German-Austrian ones. I can't recall her attending weddings of reigning royalty (Sophie of Bavaria and Alois of Liechtenstein may have been an exception, but I do not have the guest list of that wedding).
