Royal Guests and Relatives joined the Danish Royal Family for a magnificent Ball at Fredensborg Palace on this day in 1995, 30 years ago, on the eve of the Wedding of Prince Joachim of Denmark and Alexandra Manley!
Queen Margrethe II and Prince Henrik of Denmark held a magnificent Ball at Fredensborg Palace on the eve of the Wedding of Prince Joachim and Alexandra Manley.
A gala dinner was held at Christiansborg Palace on 17 November, the evening before the wedding. Around 300 guests attended, although a heavy snowstorm delayed them, and therefore the dinner, for an hour. Other guests, including the Prince of Asturias and Princess Alexia of Greece and Denmark, were unable to attend as their flights were delayed.
