A little piece of Tasmania will be sent to Crown Princess Mary as she prepares to become the next Queen of Denmark.
Acting Premier Michael Ferguson announced the state would gift a handmade Huon Pine occasional table to the royal couple ahead of their proclamation on Sunday.
"We hope ... it'll take pride of place in the palace, and where the Queen, the King and their children will be able to fondly remember Tasmania and our people," he said on Friday.
Princess Mary was born in Hobart and completed her schooling in the state before later meeting her now-husband Crown Prince Frederik in Sydney during the 2000 Olympics.
To celebrate and recognise her Tasmanian roots, the Tasman Bridge, the Launceston Town Hall and other public buildings will be lit up with the Danish flag.
"We're very proud of our Mary," Mr Ferguson said.
"If you will speak to any Tasmanian man, woman, boy or girl, they will all say the same thing - Mary is one of us."
Denmark's Ambassador to Australia Pernille Dahler Kardel said Princess Mary's "Tasmanian humbleness" will shine through in her new role.
"(It) fits very nicely into what the Danes like," she said.
"Her qualities as a human being are just really essential in performing that role in a way that the Danes will really appreciate."
The state government has also made a $10,000 donation to the Alannah and Madeline Foundation, which Princess Mary has been an international patron of since 2005.
The City of Hobart is marking the momentous occasion by planting a blue gum tree in a prominent location.
"Hobart is immensely proud of future Queen Mary's Tasmanian roots," Hobart Lord Mayor Anna Reynolds said.
"We are excited to celebrate this joyous occasion with a meaningful gesture that reflects our shared history and connection."
The City of Hobart is working through protocols with the Lord Mayor of Copenhagen and the Danish Royal House on the planting of a reciprocal tree to in the Danish capital to honour "the enduring bond between the two cities".
