Notification:
this thread is dedicated to the wedding celebrations of Prince Carl Philip and his wife-to-be. We understand that people had and have doubts about the bride's suitability for her role and feel rather strongly about it. However this is NOT the right thread to discuss these doubts, there is already a thread for that here.
Posts that rehash the 'suitability' debate will be deleted from this thread. Please regard this message as a notification of any possible deletion. The same goes for repeated negativity and posts that serve an agenda.
We also like to remind you all that when a post is deemed offensive there is a 'report' button; please use it and do not get involved in another fight.
Thank you.
Marengo,
on behalf of the Swedish moderators.

According to Billed Bladet Mary will attend the dinner tonight while Frederik will pedal around half the Swedish countryside.
Perhaps she will go together with QMII as "grass-widows"? (grass-widow or widower = when the wife/husband is out of town).

I just saw a couple with a baby and stroller. You really couldn't find a baby sitter for one night.Call me old fashioned but this to me is not the type of event a baby should be at.

We have had this discussion before, I think. There seems to be a difference in the European and the American culture when it comes to bringing children to weddings and events. I don't think that this is the place to rehash this discussion. But for Europeans that is usually no big deal and people don't mind if someone brings their baby.

I guess there will be someone to watch the baby while the parent's enjoy the party and only get mom if the baby needs feeding. Just odd to me.

I do not understand the code of dressing, I can see some ladies in long dresses and some one in short! Even Queen Silvia in pants?

No. Not a difference in the "European" (there are several cultures in Europe) and American but a difference between people. I think it is not ok to bring kids to an evening event for adults. It just means people are selfish.
Any thoughts on Sofia's dress? I don't think it was appropriate. Too much see through fabric and too high slit.
