My friend and I are trying to identify this Norwegian uniform, but we haven't been able to find any other pictures or descriptions online, except from this particular set of wedding photos. The photographer's site says this gentleman is part of His Majesty the King's Guard (HMKG), but the uniform is nothing like any HMKG uniform we've seen before. The tunic is dark green (and that button arrangement is reminiscent of many old lancer uniforms, but I don't know if that's relevant) and the pants are black with red lampasses. Any insight would be greatly appreciated! Thanks so much!

Hello there, I can tell you that this is a Lieutenant in the norwegian cavalry regiment.

 

It is the gala uniform for the cavalry.

 

Or like we say in Norway, Mørk uniform.

 

I hope this helped you.
