Earl and Countess Spencer transformed the State Dining Room at Althorp House into a magical candlelit scene to mark what would have been the late Princess Diana's 62nd birthday on Saturday.
Taking to Instagram, Karen Spencer, the wife of Princess Diana's brother Charles, penned: "I don’t think I’ve ever seen the State Dining Room look so beautiful," as she shared a video of the stunning royal blue-walled room decked out with a lavish tablescape.
The State Dining Room's long table was dressed with silver candelabras, blooming roses and crystal glasses. Light poured in from the towering windows which look out onto the property's sprawling grounds, and a table of showcased silverware was displayed between large bouquets of wildflowers.

"Diana… Alive and well in memory. Never forgotten, beautifully remembered," commented one fan, as another wrote: "Lovely candelabras! Floral detail gorgeous! Must be heavenly at night!!"
