 The Queen almost never attends the weddings of European royals, but there have been a few exceptions, including Princess Alexia of Greece's 1999 wedding in London |
Following the precedent set by
her parents and grandparents, the
Queen almost never attends the
weddings of European royals.
Instead, she is represented by
members of her family. Prince
Charles represented her at the
wedding of Crown Prince Felipe of
Spain, while Edward and Sophie
represented her at Crown Prince
Frederik of Denmark's wedding. There has been the occasional
exception. The Queen has attended
the London weddings of two of the
King of Greece's children – Prince
Pavlos and Princess Alexia.
