Members of more than 40 royal families are expected to gather for the cathedral wedding, followed by a banquet at the royal palace (above) |
Just as Felipe and Letizia have confirmed their attendance at the wedding of Prince Hamzah of Jordan a week after they make their vows, it is said that Frederik and Mary of Denmark will find time for the Spanish nuptials the weekend following their own special day. Should that be impossible, the crown prince's brother Prince Joachim and his wife Princess Alexandra will probably attend in the newlyweds' place.
It's a family affair for Belgium, with the royal party expected to include Spanish-born Queen Fabiola. However, it remains to be seen if health issues will keep King Harald of Norway, currently recovering from treatment for bladder cancer, and Princess Masako of Japan, reportedly suffering depression, from attending the wedding.
