Countess Alexandra also looked happy and well. Very civilised of all four concerned that they can meet on such occasions.

Did they have a chance to speak to each other? The pictures I saw only were only of the different people arriving, separately.

From the only pictures posted the answer would be no and nothing has been said yet from articles

Was Marie a godmother to the baby? They seem like close friends, and it would be a nice tribute. Joachim and Marie both look fantastic.

If you look over the page, Joachim and Marie attended a christening yesterday. As did Alexandra and Martin.
Lovely dress from Marie

Marie is lovely and much more confident after more than a year as a princess!
Hope we'll see her much more often in royal duties!!

Yes, Marie was a godmother to the baby.
Here is a link with the picture caption saying so

Dazzling,
Your link is the only indication of Marie being a godmother or attending a christening. The pictures, though, are tiny, and can't be enlarged without a password to the site. Is it possible to get a better link?
Oscar and Britt are close friends of Joachim's and it is a beautiful gesture to have asked Marie to be the godmother for their second child.

Wow, Joachim certainly looks older than he is in those pictures. Marie looks wonderful. It's nice that they all attend events together.

Thank you for the larger pictures, they make quite a difference. Marie looks wonderful - though I don't care for those platform shoes (not on anyone, I think they are out of proportion, but that's a personal opinion). Nice soft colors.
Joachim does look like he's lost some weight - particularly since this spring, and looks older as a result.

Thank you, Dazzling, for the link! It's been really great to see the friendship between Marie and Britt. Agnete is a really beautiful name for the baby.
Here's an article about Marie as godmother:
http://www.seoghoer.dk/Nyheder/Royal...%20gudmor.aspx
I love the photo of Britt with the baby.
The article talks about the christenings in Joachim and Marie's circle of friends. There will be another one this autumn for their friends Christian Scherfig and Agnete Arno. The article says that it is likely that Marie or Joachim will be godparent to their baby, since Christian is one of the godfathers for Prince Henrik. After the christening, the group went to the restaurant owned by Ida Davidsen, the mother of Britt, who is known for her sandwiches.

The pic of the baby's big brother in the ppe gallery was
also cute, he obviously enjoyed the media interest in
the christening 
Here are two nice additional pics of Princess Marie and
Prince Joachim on their way to the restaurant after
the christening:

I liked Marie's look at the christening far more than Alexandra's. Alexandra looks too informal, does not complement her husband who is wearing a suit and tie. The sweater is too casual a look if he is wearing a suit, in my opinion.
Joachim and Marie, on the other hand, look polished, just right.

And here are some more photos from the christening:

It talks about how the baby was christened over the weekend, and that Marie was a godmother. Joachim is already a godparent to their son Alexander.
