The route from Stiftsgården to the Nidaros Cathedral.
The city of Trondheim was decorated with flags and banners in the mint and fuchsia colours Princess Märtha Louise and Ari Behn had chosen as their wedding colours. Tens of thousands of people, waving little Norwegian flags, stood along the way from Stiftsgå:rden to the Nidaros Cathedral to catch a glimpse of the wedding. They cheered loudly when Princess Märtha Louise and her father, King Harald V, passed in a horse-drawn carriage pulled by two black horses. They arrived at the cathedral around 16:00.
Meanwhile at 15:30 the groom, Ari Behn, had already arrived at the Nidaros Cathedral together with the witnesses Kåre Conradi and Marianne Ulrichsen. Right afterwards the royal guests arrived with busses and cars. The last ones to arrive were Queen Sonja with Crown Prince Haakon and Crown Princess Mette-Marit. Then the brides children arrived and soon afterwards the bride.
