There were horses, there were carriages and there was a lot of black and white. The Royal Family of Sweden traditionally opens parliament in monochrome and as they stepped out as one just days after the christening of Prince Alexander, that habit was holding fast. The official opening of parliament in Sweden went perfectly to plan.
There's no more regal way to arrive in style than by horse and carriage and that's just how the Swedish Royal Family made their way to the Riksdag today.
As is traditional, the royal party was in black and white, Silvia, Sofia and Madeleine chose mostly black ensembles while Victoria added a white jacket to her black skirt.
The royals heard King Carl XVI Gustaf give a speech focused on the future, telling his audience that it was vital Sweden looked towards co-operation with other nations.
There was also a church service and in the evening, the King and Queen of Sweden along with Prince Carl Philip, Prince Daniel and Princess Madeleine attended a concert by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.
