Anne was at the same event as the Edinburgh's, Beatrice and Edo, and Albert and Charlene clearly they were in the party mood even if Charles wanted an early night!:whistling:

(The private members club they were all at is a 9 minute walk from St James Palace btw)

I suppose the Maõri King Tuheitia should be added to the list of royalty in attendance, to avoid any further diplomatic 'incidents' ;)
 
I am in London (just arrived today) and people are camping in the street (I think it’s where they call the Mall); I just passed Macron and his wife and their security team in the middle of the street! I was caught off guard completely.

It is crowded here! I was shocked Macron is mingling like that!!!
 
So apparently the Queen was never supposed to attend the events from today. My guess is that she indeed planned some private and resting moment with her family before the big Day, possibly at Raymill House.
 
Imagine if they threw a gala with dancing, like ballroom dancing, and they threw us a few photos and video clips!!! But probably a hassle with all the different foreign guests, so they stuck with shorter receptions. They could do family and friends, but that might seem a bit pretentious. Do royals and the upper class even do ballroom dancing anymore? I see photos of QEII dancing and think when was the last time we saw the BRF ballroom dancing?!

Sounds like fun. Nice that a group of them could go to a more laid back event.

I can get Charles wanting an early evening. He’s got a big day tomorrow.

Family meal for those who can. Nothing odd about that.

Yeah seemed like an event catered towards the extended family entertaining some foreign royals. The York's and Edinburghs were there along with the Princess Royal, Tindalls, Chattos and Michaels of Kent
 
Was Sophie at the reception? Did she wear that dress or did she change again?

Sounds like just about everybody except Charles, Camilla, William and Catherine attended. Oh- and Peter.
 
Quite the curtsies from Princess Charlene and Crown Princess Mary to King Charles III!

Princess Charlene

Princess Mary

Also, noticed the Aga Khan's son at the reception. Do we know if they will have representation at the ceremony tomorrow?

He will probably go. It does say in the caption, “visiting dignitaries who are due to attend tomorrows Coronation” And he attended the Queen’s committal service.
