The King and Queen beamed as they made a sunny arrival for Sunday service this morning - where music will be played to mark the royal couple's 20th wedding anniversary.
Charles, 76, and Camilla, 77, were all smiles as they attended Crathie Kirk, near Balmoral and waved at wellwishers.
The pair, who celebrated two decades of marriage on Wednesday, will be commemorated with a composition by Paul Mealor - who has in past worked on pieces for the Prince and Princess of Wales's wedding, as well as the King's birthdays and Coronation.
The monarch, basking in the nice weather, opted for a kilt and sage green blazer; while his wife was effortlessly elegant in a green tartan dress, topped with a chic sky blue coat.
For a pop of colour, the Queen donned a red hat with feather decor, her platinum hair sporting its signature style.
The royals are sure to have been enjoying a restful return to Scotland - after an activity-packed trip to Italy his week.
On the visit, where the royals got to have a private audience with the Pope and enjoyed the best of the nation's hospitality over four days, Charles made moving speeches in both the country's Parliament and Palazzo del Quirinale, highlighting unity and 'eternal friendship'.
On Thursday, the couple touched down on home soil, where they will be able to spend a quiet Easter together.

The couple spent a sunny last day in Italy, before waving to their friendly hosts as they boarded the royal plane.
Earlier that day, Camilla was spotted enjoying a few tipples as she savoured the best of Italian hospitality.
The royal looked elegant in an ivory Anna Valentine silk coat as she was seen sampling some of the country's finest wines on a visit to a UK-Emilia Romagna Food Festival in the Piazza del Popolo.
The royal couple were treated to a selection of local delicacies - including a few glasses of brandy - as they ambled through the market in Ravenna, having spent the first part of the day in Rome.
The two met with local farmers whose land and crops have been severely affected by devastating floods which have hit the region in recent years.
Her Majesty's eyes lit up as one local brewer poured her a generous sample of a golden brown liquid, which appeared to be brandy, before clinking glasses with the royal and sharing a sip by her side.

And Camilla wasn't alone in making the most of the local treats as a beaming Charles also sipped on what looked to be brandy.
Charles and his wife were greeted by an excitable crowd who offered warm wishes, smiling as they shook hands and snapped up selfies with the royal duo.
The pair arrived in Ravenna, in the north of the country, earlier today. It seemed as if the entire city had come out to greet them with huge crowds packed onto the streets and squares as they waved from the balcony of the Town Hall.
Camilla also gamely tried her hand at rolling out some pasta with a team of sfogline - pasta makers.
Grabbing a rolling pin, the Queen said: 'I can see you need to be quite strong for this!' as she made flat golden sheets to be cut into mini squares.
As Camilla dusted her pasta, the King was shown specially cured ham, which takes over 12 months to create, and was gifted a jar of chutney.
'We'll enjoy that later,' he smiled.
At the Tempted Elderflower Cider stand, Camilla also sipped a local brew, remarking how 'lovely and fizzy' the drink was.
On their arrival in the city a few hours earlier, the couple were greeted by scores of die-hard Italian fans - many of whom had queued for up to eight hours to catch a glimpse of them.
A group of ladies dressed in red and blue, wearing eye-catching hats and fascinators and carrying Union Jack flags, were at the front of the crowd.
They described themselves as 'Anglophiles' and 'huge fans' of the British Royal Family.
Antique dealer Chiara Simonini said: 'We love England and the Royal Family. We love the history and their sense of duty. The fact that King Charles is coming here to us now is magic. '
Giorgia Lucenti added: 'It's a gift for us. We thought it was wonderful that King Charles spoke in Italian in the parliament yesterday. It showed enormous respect. We would give him ten out of ten. He was perfect.'
Others shouted 'Bienvenuto Maestro!' as King Charles walked past.
The couple then visited the tomb of the legendary medieval Italian poet, Dante – the 'father of the Italian language' - and watched a reading of his most famous work the 'Divine Comedy'.
Camilla wore the same cream Anna Valentine outfit she sported in their anniversary portraits this week, accessorising with a brooch by the Italian designer Lucia Odescalchi.
The King went on his own to the stunning Basilica di San Vitale, gazing skywards in a moment of quiet contemplation that he called 'so moving'.
The Basilica is designed in an octagonal shape with a domed ceiling and is decorated with spectacular Byzantine mosaics.
Outside, Charles was introduced to artists working to preserve the ancient skill of Byzantine mosaic making.
He was then invited to place a small gold tile into a picture of himself and the Queen at their Coronation, which they were later given as a gift.
Charles asked - maybe slightly hopefully - whether it would stay in place.
Meanwhile Camilla, went to visit Lord Byron's House in the city - he was known as the 'mad Englishman' - and highlighted the importance of reading and literacy.
The King joked with a veteran partisan who fought to liberate Italy during the Second World War asking - 'how did you arrive at 103?'
Charles chatted to Stefano Pagani in the city of Ravenna in a region of Italy celebrating being liberated from Nazi-Fascism by Canadian, British and other Allied forces 80 years ago.
The elderly man stood up from his wheelchair to greet the royal guest proudly wearing a handkerchief in the Italian national colours round his neck.
He told the king he would turn 103 this year when asked his age through an interpreter, and after Charles marvelled at his longevity the former Second World fighter quipped 'I'm always hungry'.
The veteran said later: 'I didn't stop to see the liberation in the area, we kept moving and fighting, fighting to liberate my country.'
Nearby in the town hall reception was the Queen who he spoke to a younger partisan, 98-year-old Minny Geminiani, who was aged just 17 when she served as a messenger during the war.
She said after speaking to Camilla: 'I told her I would love to live one day as a Queen.'
The couple were joined by Italy's president Sergio Mattarella and foreign secretary David Lammy who has accompanied the King and Queen throughout the four-day Italian visit.
Before Charles and Camilla made a balcony appearance from the town hall to wave at crowds below, acting Mayor of Ravenna Fabio Sbaraglia gave a speech paying tribute to the sacrifices of the allies.
He told guests who included senior British and Canadian officers working in Italy: 'Ravenna remembers with deep gratitude the Allied soldiers who came from distant lands and who, with courage and sacrifice helped liberate the city from Nazi-Fascism, paving the way for the rebirth of a free and democratic community.'
