Sounds like a lot of outfit changes for the King during a ceremony that is expected to last only one hour.... Perhaps they will make some changes here as well?
Traditionally the Sovereign is first reduced to wearing the most simple garb for the anointing. For a King it should not be as complicated as it was for QEII.
Next, certain vestments are added interspersed with receiving various items of regalia. That is the part I hope will not be greatly reduced. I want to see all those gold garments.
After crowning and communion, the Recess provided welcome private time for the principals. That is when the Sovereign changes to the Imperial State Crown and purple robe.
