Don't think we got to see this Part at other danish Galas. Nice that the show it too.

I have to say I find the Greenlandic option for white tie rather charming. He just might have the most comfortable outfit of all the guests.

The lady in green might have given the most horrible/awkward curtsey ever.  When in doubt go small, not big and don't try to imitate CPss Mary, she is a pro..

There are around 400 guests, so lot of handshaking!
But then you can have a look at the dresses again.
At the end of the evening there will be dancing, including les lanciers.
But I doubt we are going to see that.

Who did he get? Not Annemette Fogh? 
Helle Reedtz-Thott is as usual a head-turner! Vuf!

I have to say QMargrethe is really providing a challange for the ladies who did not practice their curtseys enough. An elegant yurtsey is difficult enough when you are greeting a standing person, add a chair and it's a whole new story..
Oh dear, Nikolai looks positively terrified.

The wicked witch of the government... I'm sorry, a certain... red-headed minister.

Ah.
Well, at least Støjberg won't start dancing on the table... 
Nikolai looks like Bambi caught in the headlights of a truck. A big truck!

Looks like some kind of necklace on Marie Chantal's head.
Just saw one of Mary's sisters. Is her brother there as well?
Camilla of Bourbon-Two Sicilies looks nice!
