I really like the bridesmaids dresses - the colour and style - it was all great. So much thought is given to the factt hat Victoria is a princess and a future queen that it's often forgotten she is a friend also. How nice to see her in a "normal" role.

cosh · #5 06-08-2003, 06:24 PM

you're absolutely right, Alexandria! How nice that she does this, that's really cool!

She looks so normal and so happy, I'm sure that the bride will never forget this! :)

If you´re already so enthusiastic when she´s bridesmaid, what will be on her wedding day

?! But I´ve to agree, she looks great. Especially I like her eye make up. She has thoose huge Audrey Hepburn-eyes and fine arched eyebrowes. When she emphasises that with make-up, it just looks fantastic!
What do you think, when will Victoria marry?! My personal guess is that she´s then not younger than 30, but not older than 33.

Gita · #7 06-09-2003, 12:46 PM

I think she will marry between the ages of 29-33.

Among 150 guest invited were the swedish crownprincess, her sister - the princess - and her brother - the prince - with their boyfriends and girlfriend. Andrea Brodin and the swedish crownprincess have been friends from their childhood, and even their parents have been friends for decades. Photo: colourpress.com

It´s claimed that Victoria´s good friend Lina (Carolina) Tham will marry Tom Davidson (brother of Josefine Davidson-> girlfriend of DanielI) in June. And as this information is from Aftonbladet I´m quite sure, that they (journalist(s), who work at Aftonbladet alias Daniel Nyhlen) will make sure to be there...at least I hope so

GrandDuchess · #10 05-31-2004, 07:44 PM

Soon all of their friends will be married, and in due time have familys of their own! This summer (as Lena said) it's time for Lina Tham and Tom Davidson to tie the knot, and also for Daniel's friends Martin Björck and Tina Nordlund! Hoping for some pictures... :P

Quote from this week's Svensk Damtidning, take it as you like:

"The wedding hysteria has been huge the last few weeks. But at the Crown Princely wedding in Copenhagen, our own Crown Princess seemed very thoughtful and taken up by seriousness, despite the festivities.
- She realises the seriousness and what will wait the day she herself will be the bride, says Svensk Damtidning’s sources unanimously.

One after one, Victoria’s royal Crown Princely colleagues have gone to the priest. After her second cousin Fredrik’s “yes” to Mary, only Felipe was left, and he married his Letizia this past weekend.

It is almost exactly two years since Victoria started her relationship with Daniel Westling, 30. Since then, their relationship has become stronger and stronger, and lately it has seemed like they have decided to show themselves even more openly together. They have gone to the cinema, sports games and shown that they belong together for real. And Daniel who earlier seems so shy, for the first time kissed his princess on the cheek openly in public, in full daylight. At home in Ockelbo, in safety and comfort.
- But a royal wedding and a royal life will be led on strange grounds for Daniel, says one of our sources.

The grand Danish wedding became a proof to this. When a guest after the church ceremony, without thinking, tapped Victoria on the shoulder and said: “Next time it’s you!”, she did not look happy and anxious, but rather dejected.
- We saw how unpleasant Victoria thought it was, and how both she and Silvia froze.

Of course there is reason for some worries, but we don’t know for sure if mother or daughter feels it. A royal life puts hard demands on an ordinary kid.”

Thank you so much for translating this Svensk Damtidning-article. It´s a pity that they don´t reveal the "guest", who tapped Victoria on the shoulder (BTW here I know a little "joke"...maybe it´s also an anecdote, I don´t know: "Earlier I really hated to go to family-weddings. All the aunties and uncles used to pat or thump me in the side, with a big grin on their faces and said "Next time it´s you"...they didn´t stop until I did the same...at family-funerals

), but probably a lot of persons did it...I mean she´s the last one!

and also for Daniel's friends Martin Björck and Tina Nordlund!

BTW...Soccer-player Tina Nordlund is a friend of Daniel?!

Dennism · #13 06-01-2004, 04:05 AM

If she is, then bravo to him. Martin looks like a "Daniel" friend though. Can not explain it right now. Anyway, Tina is a great person and player. Would love to see her playing for the national team again. But there are more important things in life.

Yennie · #14 06-01-2004, 04:27 AM

Martin Björk (swedish TV host) and Daniel are close friends. And thats how Tina, Martins girlfriend, knows Victoria.

Haha, I agree Dennis. Daniel and Martin "looks like they´re friends" :P

Dennism · #15 06-01-2004, 04:46 AM

He´s a TV host? Okay. Did not know that. Thanks for the info.

Lena · #16 06-01-2004, 04:51 AM

Hm, I´ve now checked the pictures of Martin Björk. And IMO he looks like a sporty swedish guy in Jeans, who seems to have a close relationship to his girlfriend. When this makes him to a friend of Daniel-ok

He has his own show, Fråga Olle (Ask Olle) about sex and love. Very good and informative :P
Its usually very funny and "light" (can´t remeber the word "lättsamt" in swedish)

Maybe then Martin should take advantage of his special connections and should invite Daniel and Victoria :P

Yennie · #19 06-01-2004, 06:07 AM

I hope Victoria doens't feel the pressure with all that weddings this year...
