I have read it somewhere, don't remember where though. Maybe it was in the Queen's book, not sure.robby86 said:Thanks GD. How did you know about the boy and the teeth?
There's a video hosted at Youtube:Princess_Beatrix said:One night before the wedding there was a big Gala (or concert?) for King Carl Gustav and Silvia Sommerlath.
It was a big event where Sweden's Popband ABBA attended.
They performed "dancing queen" there for the first time.
I think this was a quiet cute idea, to invite them to sing there. I love the costumes. ( sadly I have no picture of Silvia... would love to know what she wore )

Maybe it was just so infamous, because it was very unsual back then that the Royal Couple kisses right after the wedding. I can't remember any other of the Current Kings/Queens being kissed after the wedding (sadly ).antonieta said:I'm curious too. Why was the kiss so infamous?
Here's a link to the engagment press conference of King Carl XVI Gustaf and the then being Silvia Sommerlath, now Queen Silvia. Enjoy!
