Serbia’s Crown Prince Couple hold gala dinner in London By Oskar Aanmoen 3-4 minutes _____ Oskar Aanmoen/Royal Central On Thursday, Crown Prince Alexander and Crown Princess Katherine of Serbia held a gala dinner in London at the Nobel Berkeley Hotel. Last year’s 25th-anniversary celebration of Crown Princess Katherine’s charity organisation, Lifeline <https://royalcentral.co.uk/europe/serbia/serbias-crown-prince-couple-hold-gala-dinner-in-london-to-mark-25-years-of-lifeline-116646/> , was held at Claridge’s hotel. The famous hotel is the birthplace of Crown Prince Alexander. Because the ballroom is under renovation, this year’s dinner was held at the Berkeley hotel. This year’s dinner was also a memorable evening for a good cause. It all started with a reception where the 200 guests were served with a drink and the opportunity to talk to the royals and other prominent guests. A three-course dinner followed. The appetizer was Scottish salmon, followed by steak and finished with a lovely cheesecake. Andrew Eborn, a renowned inspirational speaker, guided the guests through the evening.

Additionally, a charity auction was held where jewellery, paintings and experiences were auctioned off. All the money raised went directly to the Crown Princess’s foundation to help Serbian children. The successful auction raised a significant amount of money for the good causes that the Crown Princess’s charity helps with Serbian hospitals. There was little doubt as to what was most popular. There was a regular bidding war among many who wanted to secure a private dinner with the Crown Prince and Crown Princess at their palace in Serbia. Crown Prince Alexander.

This organisation, together with the HRH Crown Princess Katherine Foundation, works to collect money for medical equipment that has been delivered to numerous hospitals in Serbia.

When Crown Princess Katherine’s charity organisation, Lifeline, celebrated its 20th anniversary, it also held a charity gala at Claridge’s in London. That event raised money for the Cerebral Palsy Society in Greece and the Children’s Home Foundation in Greece. In addition to the Serbian royals, the event in 2014 was also attended by Princess Beatrice of York.
