STORYLINE:
Thousands of well-wishers sent messages to Queen Elizabeth II on her 80th birthday on Friday.
On Friday evening, the celebrations climaxed at Kew Palace in southwest London where her eldest son and heir to the throne, Prince Charles, hosted a formal dinner to round off the day.
The guest list was small and exclusive - two dozen very close family members.
A 10-minute firework display took place before the meal.
Music during the evening was to be provided by the London Chamber Orchestra.
During the dinner party the Band of the Royal Marines played in the garden to entertain a crowd of about 2,000 well-wishers outside.
Joining the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh were her grandson Prince Harry; her son the Duke of York and his daughters, Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice.
Also there was her youngest son Prince Edward, the Earl of Wessex and his wife, Sophie, the Countess of Wessex; the Princess Royal, Princess Anne and her husband Rear Admiral Tim Laurence; the Queen''s grandchildren Peter and Zara Phillips; the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester; the Duke of Kent; Prince and Princess Michael of Kent and Princess Alexandra.
Viscount and Viscountess Linley and Lady Sarah Chatto and Daniel Chatto - the late Princess Margaret''s children and their spouses - also attended.
