She also spoke about the role her granddaughter, Eliza Lopes, 3, will play come wedding day April 29 – as a bridesmaid.
"She's only 3, and it will be quite nerve-wracking for a little one. But she will enjoy it," said Camilla – who also made it apparent that her mind is on the upcoming big event.
While making a table decoration with some of the flowers, she also quipped to the students. "If I could do a few more of these, we could save money on the wedding."
