			The gala dinner began with a formal reception in the Lancaster Room at 6:00pm, with dinner served at 7:00pm. During the gala, a production company shooting a documentary about the event fitted Grand Duke Travis with a microphone so his conversations and witty asides would be recorded for posterity. The meal was served in courses and included Caesar salad, herbed potatoes, chicken with white sauce, and asparagus. Red and white wine was provided by the [[Principality of Aigues-Mortes]] and the chocolate ice cream with raspberry ganache dessert was provided by Westarctica.
