Wedding Wednesday (Frederik & Mary Part 1)
Next Saturday will be the 12th wedding anniversary of Crown Prince Frederik of Denmark & Australian born Crown Princess Mary (formerly Mary Donaldson). In celebration of this I am dedicating this week's Wedding Wednesday to the fairy tale couple
The evening before the wedding a gala performance was held at the royal theatre in Copenhagen in honour of the Bride & Groom to be. All the royals stepped out in gowns & tiaras.
Queen Margrethe II of Denmark. The Queen is wearing the Pearl Poire Tiara. It is the 2nd oldest tiara in the Danish collection & owned by the country of Denmark rather than any one royal.
Mary Donaldson, the bride to be. Mary is wearing the Ruby Parure Tiara. The tiara was last owned by Queen Ingrid & gifted to Mary on the eve of her wedding. The Ruby Parure is the oldest tiara in the Danish collection.
The former wife of Prince Joachim, Princess Alexandra. She is wearing the Alexandrine Drop Tiara. Upon her marriage to Joachim Margrethe gifted this tiara to Alexandra, but they got a divorce. The tiara now belongs personally to Alexandra.
Queen Anne Marie & King Constantine of Greece. Anne Marie is Frederik's aunt
Frederik's cousins Crown Prince Pavlos & Crown Princess Marie-Chantal of Greece. Marie-Chantal is wearing what I call the Marie Chantal fringe tiara. It is owned by Marie-Chantal herself.

Prince Philippe, Duke of Brabant & Princess Mathilde. Mathilde is wearing the the Laurel Wreath tiara. This is the 2nd oldest in the Belgian collection and belongs to Mathilde.
