Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary hosted the president and first lady on a visit to Kronborg’s Maritime Museum, though Mary (disappointingly) wore little jewelry.

The royal ladies were saving up their major sparkle for the evening’s state banquet. Queen Margrethe wore the Baden Palmette Tiara with the sapphire suite that belonged to her grandmother, Queen Alexandrine.

And Princess Benedikte, who was cringing a bit because of the rain as she arrived for the banquet, wore her Floral Birthday Tiara with pearl jewelry.
