During the investiture, Charles is wearing the Colobium Sidonis, a white linen tunic; the Supertunica, a gold coat; and the coronation sword belt.

He is sitting in the coronation chair.

Charles is now sitting in the Coronation Chair for the anointing, seen as the most sacred and solemn part of his coronation service.

The anointing happens behind a three-sided anointing screen made specifically for Charles’ coronation.

As the choir sings Handel’s “Zadok the Priest,” composed for King George II’s coronation in 1727, the Archbishop of Canterbury anoints Charles’ hands, chest and head with Chrism oil.

Archbishop's sermon focuses on service

Justin Welby, the Archbishop of Canterbury, delivered a sermon at the coronation focused on service to God and service to others.

The sermon was written by Welby spefically for Charles' and Camilla's coronation, which has themes of inclusivity and diversity.

"We are open to the transforming love of God. Amen," Welby said in concluding his sermon.

Among the foliage decorating the High Altar inside Westminster Abbey are branches from a pair of Dawyck beech trees planted by Charles’ parents, the late Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, in 1978 at Wisley, a Royal Horticultural Society garden.

Throughout the Abbey, over 120 varieties of flowers can be seen. The arrangements were made without the use of single use plastics or floral foam, an ode to Charles’ focus on the environment.

After the coronation, the flowers and branches will be donated to Floral Angels, a nonprofit organization that repurposes flowers for care centers, hospices and shelters, according to Buckingham Palace. Camilla is royal patron for the charity.

Charles and Camilla as well as William, Kate, George, Charlotte and Louis have an up-close view from the Buckingham Palace balcony of a military flypast.

Aircraft from the Royal Navy, British Army and Royal Air Force are flying over The Mall in central London.

The flypast was shortened from the planned six minutes to just over two minutes in length due to rainy weather in London Saturday.
