The official welcoming ceremony took place at Christiansborg. Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen also attended the ceremony.
Prior to the welcoming ceremony at Christiansborg, the Danish and Spanish royals visited Kastellet and later on they were escorted by carriage to Christians VII's Palace at Amalienborg.

Even though we have seen pretty much every single piece of her outfit before, then I think her style was a bit different than we are use to see. I can't really explain it. Think it is the combination of colors and that hat. Would really like to see her wear that new hat with another outfit. Any idea were it is from?
Mary matched a brand new Scanlan Theodore dress with a reused dark green The Fold London wool-blend coat. The color is outstanding. Elegant and delicate. She style it with her amazing studded Valentino pumps. Imagine those in our wardrobe. Sight!
As other accessories, Mary had chosen a beloved Quidam clutch.
A closer look revealed that she was in fact wearing huge diamond earrings once purchased at an Bruun Rasmussen auction and a stunning brooch from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen. The combo is a bit odd but both pieces are magnificent. The same goes with the Dulong Fine Jewelry black South Sea pearl bracelet.

Mary looked smashing in her reused bespoke Lasse Spangenberg Copenhagen evening gown. I learned that her gown is in fact dusty green. I aways thought it was soft blue. Now I like it even more. She first wore it in 2022 on occasion of her 50th birthday (here).
She embraced the magical gala outfit with her beautiful tiara once purchased at an Bruun Rasmussen auction. It can also be worn as a necklace. For the first time, I think the tiara suited her outfit with such perfection it is scary. The earrings are also an auction purchase.
We get a glimpse of her beloved Halberstadt and Julie Sandlau necklaces as well as an old Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen diamond bangle. She has also worn both the silver rhinestone clutch and glitter Gianvito Rossi pumps before.
I like what I see.
