I am from Denmark too and a normal christening is a part of a normal church service. You sing some psalms and then the godmother/father carries the child to the fountain and the priest asks what the name of the child is. After the godmother/father have said the name and that she/he would take care that the child would be raised in the Christian faith, the priest will confirm that the child has been babtized "I faderens, sønnens og helligåndens navn" (In the name of the father, the son and the holy spirit) . Then the church servise will go on as usual.
I hope this settles the issue :-)
