Decorating everything in sight is one of the most fun things about the holiday season, especially when you go for a super festive theme that is just a little over-the-top (Christmas is the best when it’s a little overdone!). It looks like the royal family agrees with that — the royal palace has shared their Christmas decorations with the world, and they are so wonderfully outrageous that you won’t want to miss out on getting a glimpse of them.

It looks like the royal family opted for classic decorations over something more, uh, alternative (Melania Trump and the red trees in the White House, we’re looking at you). The decor is all festive greenery, glittering colorful lights, and the kind of ornaments only the royal family could get away with hanging. Sure, they might be a little silly, but it’s all perfectly done for a place like Buckingham Palace.

The royal family shared a video about their decorations on the official Twitter account, explaining that their Christmas trees are grown in Windsor, then delivered to the Palace in December, where they are hammered into place so they don’t budge. Once the trees are up, they’re decorated with ornaments that include a crown and a carriage, because of course they do. Would you expect anything less?

There’s also a large garland strung along the grand staircase. The green garland is decorated with colorful Christmas ornament balls and large deep red bows. It’s quite a festive scene in Buckingham Palace’s Marble Hall!

Oh, and here’s an interesting tidbit of information: the Queen is believed to have introduced the Christmas tree to the royal family. According to the official royal website, Queen Charlotte, consort of George III, is thought to have introduced the Christmas tree, and the later enthusiasm of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert helped spread the popularity of the decoration throughout the entire country.
