They have treatment of " excelentísmo señor o señora ". In Spain don / doña they are all the persons, it is like a more serious treatment.

Isn't there any news about Luis Felipe's baptism? I was searching about a precise date, but I couldn't find anything... Is it actually going to take place this month, as it was announced in the press, some time ago?

There is no news. The father of Laura had commented that possibly it would be in September, but there is no news. The baptisms of the grandsons of the Infanta Pilar have never promised to be, nor pose before the press, only at some time they have given a photo. They are intimate ceremonies that are in the habit of being celebrated in house of the Infanta Pilar. I believe that we will find out when it has happened. Though I think that it will not be able to be late very much, since the Prince will be his godfather and the agenda in October is busy enough and for in November the birth of the baby of the Princes is waited .

Yeah, well, the difference is that not everybody is Don/Doña with capital letter (meaning an aristocratic treatment, rather than just a mere respectful manner of addressing to a person)... I didn't know that Cristina's and Elena's children would be treated as Don/Doña; I was pretty convinced they would not receive any special treatment, but if you say so, I trust you
So, does that mean that the children of Infantas Pilar and Margarita (besides Juan, of course) also recieve the aristocratic treatment of Don/Doña (e.g. Don Beltrán, etc.)? I never heard about it...

Still nothing has been known of the baptism of the small Luis Felipe. The family of the Infanta Pilar is in the habit of celebrating the baptisms in the intimacy in house of the Infanta, but the press always finds out. In this case there has been no news. The Prince will be the godfather so not when it will be the baptism, because the Prince is going to be busy.

Do not wait for many photos, not very good. Last year of the baptism of Alejandro, the son of Bruno Gómez Acebo, only there were some photos taken from the exterior of the entry of the guests in the house of the Infanta Pilar. The grandsons of the Infanta Pilar are baptized of a way very intíme.
Not how it will be in this case. Probably if we manage to see some photo more. The Prince of Asturias is the godfather of Luis, and the Princess will come also. Besides Laura Ponte was a personage very acquaintance before marrying Beltrán. Though also it is true that Beltrán does not like at all the press and the photographers.
This news is of an Asturian newspaper where the father of Laura collaborates, it informed that will be the press of Madrid on the topic.

At what time will it take place?

Letizia se encuentra en la recta final de su embarazo y no reduce su actividad. A los actos oficiales que acude entre semana se sumó ayer un compromiso familiar. La princesa asistió con Felipe al bautizo de Luis, el primer hijo de Beltrán Gómez Acebo, sobrino del Rey, y de la modelo Laura Ponte. La pareja citó a los invitados en el domicilio madrileño de la infanta Pilar, hermana de Juan Carlos y abuela del pequeño que recibió las aguas bautismales, nacido el pasado mes de julio. Los príncipes de Asturias (en la foto), que son muy buenos amigos del sobrino del rey y de la modelo asturiana, no quisieron perderse la celebración, en la que Felipe ejerció de padrino. La pareja llegó en su coche acompañados por la infanta Cristina. La invitada sorpresa fue Carmen Cervera, que al parecer mantiene una estrecha relación con la familia Gómez Acebo. La baronesa Thyssen lució un sofisticado vestido en tonos claros y dorados con trasparencias que no la dejaron pasar inadvertida.
