On Saturday, May 6, King Charles III was officially crowned the 40th British monarch.
King Charles' Coronation marks the first one in 70 years.
As is custom, the coronation of King Charles and his mother both took place in Westminster Abbey.
However, in 70 years, a lot can change, and a lot has.
She also received the title of “Queen Consort” as indicated by Queen Elizabeth II before her passing.
He wasn’t given the title of “King Philip,” either.
According toUSA Today, over 8,000 guests showed up to watch the historic crowning of the new queen.
The surplus of invitees meant the church had to be closed off to the public for a few days.
This was so they could make a few modifications to accommodate such a huge crowd.
King Charles' guest list was much shorter than his mother’s.
PerTown & Country, his guest list came out to less than 2,300 people.
He also made an effort to include more religious diversity at the ceremony.
Capturing this once-in-a-lifetime moment was a huge occasion.
It was the first coronation to take place since the invention of the technology.
This is when the monarch-to-be is carried down a pre-planned route for everyone to witness during coronation day.
In comparison to his mother’s procession route, King Charles' route was less than two miles.
