No doubt Prince Carl Philip has personally crossed paths with many of the chefs that will be designing and serving elaborate dishes for him, his new wife and their guests on 13 June – the royal has a keen interest in fine cuisine and he is patron of the Swedish Bocuse d'Or Academy.

In January the 35-year-old attended the Bocuse d'Or chefs contest in Lyon, France and a month later, the prince was on the panel of Chef of the Year alongside Michelin-starred restaurant owner Mathias.

The June weekend of celebrations will commence on the eve of the wedding day with a private dinner for the couple's nearest and dearest.
