All eyes were on Princess Charlene in an elegant lilac outfit on the special day, also known as National Day, with the French Republican Guard in attendance as guests of honour.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

This year’s Prince’s Day events went off without a hitch under beautiful blue skies. The special celebration brings together Monegasques, residents and guests along with their Prince and the Princely Family.<\/p>\n\n

The festivities began at 9.30 am with a thanksgiving mass in Monaco Cathedral, with Mgr Dominique-Marie David, Archbishop of Monaco officiating. Guests filled the cathedral before Prince Albert II, Princess Charlene and members of the Princely Family, including Princesses Caroline and St\u00e9phanie arrived for the Te Deum ceremony. <\/p>\n
