The 27-year-old royal - youngest child of King Carl Gustaf and Queen Silvia - is set to tie the knot with partner Jonas Bergstrom after he proposed recently.
The couple, who have been dating since 2002, are yet to set a date but will not tie the knot before her elder sister, Crown Princess Victoria, who announced her engagement to boyfriend Daniel Westling earlier this year.
A palace spokeswoman said: "There will be no wedding until after the crown princess."
Victoria and Daniel are due to wed next June.
Madeleine and Jonas are set to meet the press later today (11.08.09) at the Solliden Palace on the island of Oland off Sweden's east coast, where the royals usually spend part of their summer holidays.

Jonas, 30, works at a legal firm in Stockholm, while Madeleine, who is third in line to the Swedish throne, has recently been involved in work with the World Childhood Foundation founded by Queen Silvia. The Swedish Royal court
