King Constantine II of Greece and Princess Anne-Marie of Denmark: September 18, 1964

[snowflower]

I find it a very nice gesture that Anne Marie was given to wear Queen Olga's emeralds and rubies in the pre wedding events, before she was actually part of the family . How nice from her future mother in law.

5 drops of emeralds already on Queen Alexandrine's necklace.
What a stone Frederika is wearing? on her necklace. Is it the stone of Roumany that failed on Queen Anne's wedding necklace?
Thanks for answer

The wedding gown is wonderful and would fit to CP Victoria...

Frederika is wearing a sapphire that belonged to Marie of Roumania, it was a gift from her husband at their coronation. Sometime around late 40s or early 50s King Michael sold it and a Greek bussinesman bought it and offered it to Frederika. Lucky woman!!

that wedding deserve to be called the wedding of the century because i dont think they have been a wedding equivalent to this one you could say diana but end up in divorce or king of sweden but at that time he was affraid to make A GRAND wedding since politician were thinking about abolishing the monarchy and omg 18 to be marry thats like re=establish the whole victorian system of marry at young age

It is a great video. Thank you for sharing it.

It is with the greatest pleasure that I finally took up some time to felicitate your site on the fine material it provides to its readers. This couple was and remains a marvel, a comment that I would like to extend to this marvelous era that has long gone. Seeing Athens in September 1964 and Athens in January 2011 may be quite painful to some of us, may I dare to state that the 1964 Athens belonged to a different planet or will it sound like an overstatement? Some or the readers will understand my point. I was also totally touched by watching this video for one more reason and this reason is Queen Ingrid of Danemark. By all means, my favorite Queen of all times. Thank you TRF for the opportunity of some glimpses at the Dream, the royal past as that should be called.

I was bound to believe in fairytales again then and there when I watched it,Tino and Anne Marie.It was one of the grand Royal weddings of the 60's,and I recall them all,starting with Princess Alexandra and Angus Ogylvie,King Baudouin and Queen Fabiola...oh heck...or was that the other way 'round...I watched it and I recall each vividly!.

Does anybody have any better shots of the guests? What about the full official photo? I've only seen it in a tiny form, I'd love to see it in a better size.

It seems that Grace attended the pre-wedding dinner, but missed the wedding ceremony.

I really hope I am not going against the forum policy, but I visited a site called "Glittering Royal Events" and there are a huge number of photos. You don't see them on the message board part, but the main part.

Yes, you are correct, sorry!!! Now I just went to this site, and there are a lot of pics: Mad Hattery

It´s a pity that for this particular wedding only very small and often blurry pics seem to be available....

[maria-olivia]

thanks la Noblesse for your thread.

Do you think if King Paul did not die so young , the ambition of Queen Frederika could not exist and perhaps Greece will still be a Kingdom?

Wonderful video above ,I'd never seen it before and was struck by the crowds cheering and waving,make me wonder how it all went wrong a few years later.
