King Charles is set to lead the nation in honouring the war dead on Remembrance Sunday at the weekend for the first time as monarch.
And Buckingham Palace has confirmed there will be some changes during the ceremony at the Cenotaph from when the service was led by the late Queen.
His Majesty will lay a new wreath at the Cenotaph on Sunday, which will be different in design to his late mothers.
However, the design of the new ring of poppies will pay tribute to the wreath used by both the late Queen and his grandfather King George VI.
It has been revealed the wreath will be mounted on an arrangement of black leaves, as is traditional for the sovereign, with the ribbon bearing the King's racing colours of scarlet, purple and gold.
Royal racing colours were also incorporated into the wreaths of George V, George VI and Queen Elizabeth II.
Meanwhile, a wreath will also be laid on the Queen Consort's behalf for the first time as Camilla watches from the balcony of the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office building.
Camilla's wreath will bear her racing colours, inherited from her grandfather, and echoes the wreath of the previous Queen Consort, the Queen Mother.
The King and the Queen Consort's wreaths have been made by The Poppy Factory and will be accompanied by handwritten cards bearing their new cyphers.
In addition, the Prince of Wales, Prince William, will lay the wreath that was previously laid by his father, who held the title Prince of Wales for more than 64 years before his accession to the throne.
William's wreath will feature the Prince of Wales feathers and bear a new ribbon in "Welsh red".
As usual, the royals will be out in force at the Cenotaph for the event on Sunday with other attendees including the Princess of Wales, Prince Edward, Sophie Wessex, Princess Anne and Vice Admiral Sir Tim Laurence.
Also present will be the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester, the Duke of Kent and Princess Alexandra.
After the ceremony, Prince Edward will take the salute at the march past of veteran organisations on Horse Guards Parade.
Remembrance Sunday was said to be a key event in the late Queen's diary and she only missed it on a handful of occasions during her 70-year reign.
In addition, the King, Queen Consort will also gather for the annual Royal British Legion Festival of Remembrance at the Royal Albert Hall on Saturday night, which will be broadcast on BBC One.
Also, there will be William, Kate, the Wessexes, Princess Anne, Vice Admiral Sir Tim Laurence, the Gloucesters, the Duke of Kent and Princess Alexandra.
