Christenings of Victoria, Carl Philip and Madeleine


If you have answers, please help by responding to the unanswered posts.
it was Madeleine who cried during her christening right ?
 
Quite possible to register her in the succesion?

I think they'll release little snippets in the run up to Estelle's christening.

Here you can listen to Victoria's Christening, under Victorias dop

It's 35 minutes long via radio. A few other things surrounding that time are listed as well.
 
Would any happen to remember and old picture of Victoria with just Madeleine at her christening in the cradle? I saw it years ago and only once I just thought it was really sweet.
 
what cradle did they use for victorias chistning?
 
Madeleine is a form of Magdalene.
Sophie Magdalena was the Queen Consort from 1771 to 1792 when her husband Frederick V of Denmark reigned as the King of Sweden.
Is it safe to conclude that Princess Madeleine was christened with the first name of Madeleine (Magdalena) to pay tribute to Queen Sophie Magdalena?

I notice Carl Philip had the cradle meant for the heir apparent. I thought everyone knew the succession law was going to change on Jan 1, 1980. Why have that cradle, and the crown of the heir apparent at the christening when he wouldn't have that title the following year?

Because the christening took place on August 31st 1979 when Carl Philip was still the heir apparent:whistling:
You pay taxes for this year even when you know that they will be higher the next year

I'm just curious, is there more than one christening font? I ask because when I look at pictures from Victoria, Carl Philip, Madeleine, Estelle and Oscar they font is almost a solid silver. But looking at christenings of Nicolas and the other two this font has angels holding up silver basin

This one is seen used at christenings of Leonore, Nicolas and Alexander

But this one on the court website is the only one listed and is almost all silver

Seen used in the King’s children’s baptism as well as Estelle and Oscar

I found this photo on the Royal Court's Website. I believe the fonts are different because the churches are different.

There is information about it here

I had planned on watching all 3 christenings of Victoria, Carl Philip & Madeline but it seems if you are outside Sweden this is not possible via svt.se

I have never seen their full christenings only bits and pieces of each. I suppose it's their policy but I would like to see them maybe one day. Rather disappointed.
