Has the dress code been published somewhere? I wouldn't be surprised if the dress code will be black tie, meaning no tiaras

. But since the wedding is late afternoon, it should be with at least nice gowns and some stunning jewellery.

The wedding itself is dresses and hats for the ladies and morning suit or uniform for the men but for the dinner and ball i think we will have at last black tie.

Thank you, Stefan. I hope to see at least Charlene with a tiara, althought it's not a tradition in Monaco.

I hope it too and i still hope the Ball is white tie. But on the Royal Jewels MB someone said that thee is an exhibition about Princess Grace somewhere and there the fringe tiara, the diamond and pearl tiara and also 2 or 3 of Grace's tiara are on display. So not too much hope or they take them all out for the Wedding.

So much for my dream of seeing bride Charlene with the pearl drop tiara, Caroline with the fringe, Stephanie with the ruby tiara and Charlotte with Princess Grace's diamond tiara

! It was a vain hope anyway. Maybe they left out one of Grace's tiaras out of the exhibition? But to me it would be strange to have one more of these Monaco white tie events (like Prince Albert's investiture) where foreign royals wear tiaras, while Albert's sisters don't.

Yes that would be really strange. And i doubt Caroline would wear one of the Hannover tiaras now.

We will perhaps the further week. We know that there will be many royal families by the minister of security

Will Philippe and Mathilde also attend?
I hope so

If I were Caroline, I wouldn't ever touch a piece of Hannover jewellery again. Also it would be strange if Caroline wears a tiara while Stephanie doesn't. After all they are both Albert's sister, and from the wedding onwards Caroline won't be the first lady anymore.

i just reacted to the post i see... i wish m&f attend the wedding, but i think you are right. the article talks about it as a speculation...

As far as I know, the Grace Kelly Years exhibition has been in Sao Paulo (Brasil) since May 4th - 5th when Albert attended the event.

Far fetched perhaps, but he had the opportunity to "borrow" some items for the wedding ??

I expect it will be the Earl and Countess of Wessex; they seem to turn up at all the weddings.

I think we can be happy if we see a tiara at the bride - but since it is a morning wedding (at least I thougth so), definitely no tiaras - just hats - unfortunately...

oops - I think I just repeated here some comments above...

The Queen seems to always send the Wessexes to less important events..... but, we never know.... it might be C & C instead.....

William & Catherine will be in the middle of their tour to Canada & the States, therefore they wont be attending.

Canada June 30 - July 8
State July 8 -10

Countess felicitas, the religious ceremony will be at monaco (europa hours at 5 p.m and not on the morning, the dress is dress and hats for the women and costum for men, after they could go to the hotels which are not far for the palace to change and wear long dress and uniform or gala suits for men and tiaras for women, princess Stephanie and princess caroline have tiaras from their mother.

I hope so as this is the Wedding of a Head of State,Monaco might only be a Principality but HSH is still a Monarch none the less.

Queen Elizabeth didn't feel Rainier and Graces wedding was worthy of her attendance and never seen where she sent anyone else. I would like to see Charles and Camilla attend however, I expect it will be the Wessexes.

Moonmaiden23 · #**1878** 06-13-2011, 11:30 AM

I am pretty certain C&C will not be attending and it will be the Wessexes. They attended PA's Enthronement ceremonies, and CW has gone on record as saying that she has become good friends with Sophie Wessex.

The Wessexes are also closer to PA and CW's age group than Charles and Camilla.

That's true!

Renata4711 · #**1880** 06-13-2011, 11:47 AM

CW is the same age group as Sophie, but one can't say the same about PA :-))
