King, Queen, Princess Anne and Sophie host glitzy event at Buckingham Palace

Both the Queen and the Princess Royal looked elegant in white for the occasion, while the Duchess of Edinburgh chose a sophisticated black dress.

The reception offered an opportunity for Their Majesties and other Members of the Royal Family to thank and recognise those involved.

Those who attended include some of the many external organisations involved in planning both the Queen's funeral and the Coronation.

Charles and Camilla personally thanked people at the reception for their work and efforts during these events.

The late Queen's funeral took place on September 19, 2022, and involved several groups for the event to take place without a hitch.

Similarly, the King's Coronation occurred in May earlier this year, with every detail meticulously planned in advance.

At today's event in Buckingham Palace, representatives and organisers from bodies across government, the church, policing, media and civil institutions were recognised by the sovereign.

They were specially celebrated due to their unmatched contributions to the royal events that were watched with a global interest.

The invited guests by King Charles included volunteers, creatives, musicians, and support staff.
