According to Stephane Bern's website, the Queen of Spain will be among the guests at the wedding.

Oh,great!This means that the GRF is going to be there,too.I first thought it would be too private (the 2 of them and their parents and siblings or something like that).

Congratulations to the couple! I hope that we will be able to see some photos.

hopefully she will take her children and in laws with her!
my congrats to the couple...

I don't think she will. If Felipe and Letizia are there, then the media will storm Patmos, and image the headache if people hear they are bringing the girls? There goes Aimone and Olga's private wedding.

No, I think it will be just Sofia and it will be a private family gathering. There weren't many cameras last year when Sofia was godmother to Prince Karl Wilhelm of Baden, so I don't think there will be a horde of paparazzi the way there might be if Felipe or Letizia went with Leo and baby Sofi. Unless they were REALLY quiet about it, I don't think anyone from the SRF but Queen Sofia will be attending.

Sito Ufficiale della Real Casa di Savoia

The website of prince Amadeo is including the info that the union between AImone and Olga which will be celebrated the 27 th september fulfilla the rules of Casa Savoia as regards the matrimony.

This is an important for the battle of Amedeo to be Head of the House against the cousin Vittorio Emanuele: Vittorio Emanuele and Emanuele Filiberto married commoners, on the contrary the Aosta branch has always had marriages with royal princesses.

It is good to hear that royal is marrying royal, such an unusual happening these days it seems.

When Bianca married Giberto Arrivabene many guests were obliged to follow the ceremony outside the small church of Il Borro, but on that occasione guests were hundreds!
I also like to see a marriage following the traditional rules...

Vittorio Emanule has welcomed the wedding and wished the couple a happy life together.
See: disavoia.it

Very nice of him to do, in my opinion, seeing as how he and Amedeo are not exactly on the best of terms.
