Buckingham Palace has gone totally EXTRA with the decorations this year

No shortage of trees.

Fit for a queen.

It looks like Buckingham Palace has seriously gone and upped it’s Christmas decor game featuring not one, but four massive Christmas trees (in the lobby alone).

With the news that Meghan Markle will be spending this Christmas alongside Prince Harry and the rest of the royal family in London, we wonder did Queen Elizabeth decide to go all out on this year’s decorations to make a good impression? Although very unlikely, who knows.

In this minute long video, in true “English hierarchy style”, it doesn’t just show you some of the lavish decorations on display, but also gives you some history into who popularised the Christmas tree and where the baubles originated from.

We are thinking of doing a similar tour with our house, featuring our “Penneys hun” baubles. Please take note of the crown Christmas decorations on the trees in this video, it doesn’t get more extra than that.

And with five months to go until the wedding of Megan and Prince Harry, we expect this to be a relaxing Christmas for the pair before the bedlam of wedding organising kicks in, in the new year.

Our excitement for their wedding is real.
