VIP guests lined up a mile from 6 a.m. to get one of the top 2,300 seats in Westminster Abbey on Saturday. The abbey was full just before 9am.
About 100 heads of state are in London, with representatives from 203 countries.
They will see Charles being crowned in a Christian ceremony that stretches back 1,000 years on a day dripping with glorious pageantry.
It will also highlight Britain’s place on the world stage in the UK’s largest ceremonial military operation since Sir Winston Churchill’s state funeral in 1965 with 7,000 servicemen marching alongside the King and Queen.
A rich royal blue tapestry – chosen to emphasize the king’s and queen’s regal red, gold and purple robes – graced the stage in the coronation theatre.
Stunning flowers in red, burgundy and yellow gold covered the top of the ornate gold high altar.
A smiling Dean of Westminster in his vivid red priestly robes was seen hastily carrying the holy oil for anointing past the abbey from the altar through the quire, holding the precious ornate silver vessel in both hands.
At today’s coronation, 7,000 servicemen and women will accompany Their Majesties, making it the country’s largest ceremonial event since 1953.
