๐Ÿ’ open ๐Ÿ’

๐Ÿ’ซWHO: Aether, Vanitas, & you! Open to everyone.
๐Ÿ’ซWHAT: Wedding Time!
๐Ÿ’ซWHEN: Winter 16
๐Ÿ’ซWHERE: Flowering meadow
๐Ÿ’ซWARNINGS: None, will add as they pop up.

[ Welcome to the wedding ceremony & reception for Aether and Vanitas! The couple's chosen time for the wedding is in the evening, when the sky is dark and the stars can be seen more clearly. They have a general wedding theme with a lot of greenery โ€“ vines are wrapped around the poles of the tent above, in which lights and star-themed decorations are hanging from the canopy. Each table has a nice, full bouquet with forget-me-nots. There are no name cards and seating is open, meaning everyone can sit wherever they'd like.

The ceremony is short and sweet. Noรฉ stands next to Vanitas as his worst best man, while Amber escorts Aether down the aisle before the couple meets at the altar. Vanitas looks especially nervous, but there are no dramatics when Aether approaches, which is probably for the best โ€“ just them taking each other's hands. Surprisingly, there is no exchanging of vows, either.

Vanitas and Aether have chosen to keep everything about the ceremony short and simple, but the look in their eyes is unmistakable โ€“ they are truly endeared with one another, which makes the ceremony all the more sweet. The kiss they share at the end is chaste and shy, but very earnest nevertheless. They aren't one for public displays of affection, anyway.

Still, it's a cozy evening. Congrats to the newlyweds.
]



[ The reception table has something akin to a guest book. It's more like a little board that has a picture of the night sky in the middle, and Aether & Vanitas' names beneath it. It is equipped with pens that people can use to write or draw messages for them! ]



[ Their cake is appropriately themed, too! Some faeries can be found slicing it and handing it out to everyone, so you might have to fight them for seconds, if you so desireโ€ฆ Because they will put up a fight and insist the rest of the cake is for the happy couple! (Neither Aether nor Vanitas will agree to this.)

Both regular and alcoholic beverages are available, and the main entree is Sweet Madame with bonus tarte tatin slices available, should anyone not feel up for fighting the faeries for wedding cake! ]




[ The faeries had a hand in some of the planning โ€“ well, more like they decided to do some things for the married couple on their own โ€“ because they will announce that there will be an open mic for those who want to give any speeches for the married couple! Of course, you're welcome to use the mic for other things, too, but there's no karaoke machine to be found this time, sadly.

Otherwise, the reception is very relaxed, and there isn't much of a program! It's open for mingling with the married couple, as well as with the other guests.

Oh, and one time he climbed on top of the chandelier and yelled at all the guests... and now he's on the floor yelling just at one guest.

[ Is this what they call character development? ]

Hey, Vanitas, come here! Do you want to add something?

open mic!

( UNLIKE THE SPEECH GIVEN BY NOร‰, AMBER'S WON'T BE FOCUSED ON EMBARRASSING ONE OF THE GROOMS ... well, actually, that's subjective. It might embarrass both of them! But not out of humiliation - it's purely because of how sappy it is. But how can she resist?! It's her bestie's wedding! )

I'd like to say a few words for the grooms! ( With the mic in hand, she begins: )

Hello, everyone! I'm Amber, I've known Aether for a very long time now, and I got to meet Vanitas in this place.

I met Aether when he arrived in Mondstadt one day out of the blue. It was just a casual meeting! You know, saying hi to someone, almost arresting them, then getting attacked by a dragon ... ( LAUGHING TRACK ) You know! Usual stuff.

The Traveller impressed me the first time that I met him. He could really work a sword, fight Hilichurls, and even cook! But as we know, not everyone's perfect. In the ways I saw him crash land during his gliding exam, I see he's crash landed directly into Vanitas' heart! ( MORE LAUGHING TRACK ) Eventually, he conquered his gliding exam, and went on to achieve many great feats all across this beautiful land of ours. The time we spent together was something I always cherished. I can't say that climbing to the top of a church cathedral tower when no one is looking is a normal activity for everyone - but hey!

For Vanitas, though - he's a new face in my life, but one I already cherish. I trust him to look after our beloved Traveller's heart and keep it safe. I know that no matter what hurdles you face in your marriage to one another, you'll get through all of them and arrive safe and sound on the other side. After all, if the Traveller can survive being consumed by an Anemo Slime, he can definitely work things out with his spouse. ( TIME FOR ONE MORE TERRIBLE JOKE: ) It has been a very emotional day ... and some of you may have noticed that even the cake is in tiers.

( WHO LET HER BE SO FUNNY!! )

Okay! Now, I'm going to ask everyone to raise their glasses and โ€“ for those who still can โ€“ stand, and raise a glass to the newlyweds! ( CHEERS!! ) Both of you are meant for each other, and I pray to the God of Wind that the love which binds you never breaks. Be each other's solace always, and no mountain will be too high. Happy married life, you guys! Wishing you both a lifetime of happiness.

[ Oh... She thought the tarte was fine... Her palate really is so unrefined... Ori would almost feel awkward, herself, but his comment on the flowers pulls her right out of it, because why would she suspect that he's talking about how the flowers got him laid! ]

Oh! I'm so glad he liked them. And, heh, you must have realized that he got you flowers that day, too, hm? He was in the shop just before you arrived!

[ Ellis lets out a squeak when the fairy runs into his face and he rubs his nose. It's almost worth it, because he's seeing a fairy apologize.

But then he cups that fairy inside his hands. Gotcha.

[ He is going to gratefully take the dessert, because wouldn't it be rude to not accept a dessert when someone says to just have the entire thing? ]

You don't like desserts?

[ He Xuan is already going to town on the rest in real time. ]

Bwahahaha! I will save all the vampires!

[Who would've thought the traveler would "settle down" and marry someone, huh? Aether can be seen smiling brightly by his husband's side. He will also personally make sure that everyone's gathered has a good time, so he will approach you to ask if you need anything.

You may also see him handing out the wedding cake slices. He hasn't tried it himself yet, so please give him the feedback!

You may also ask him to dance as he's more than happy to please.]

Aether,
Congratulations are in order! The journey ahead is bound to prove an exciting one with a partner by your side. If you can live happily together, then all the better.

I should hope that married life won't keep you too preoccupied to come visit Snezhnaya. If you find the time to stop in my hometown along the way, I'll gladly treat you and Vanitas both with the warm hospitality I promised. I'd be glad if you could spare the time to meet my family. Who knows? Perhaps I'll even rope you into a rematch, for old time's sake.

As long as the stars shine, may they always lead you back to those you cherish most. Take care.


Vanitas,
Lucky you. Aren't you rather interesting? If you're the Traveler's one and only, that makes you a pretty special person, doesn't it? Suffice to say, my interest is piqued. If we should encounter each other during your travels, I'd like to get acquainted. Allow me to extend the invite while I have the chance! I won't turn down the opportunity to get to know you better.

Knowing Aether, he's bound to take you along on his adventures. I suspect you'll have plenty of wondorous things to look forward to in your future. Good or bad, aren't the times that you spend with those you hold dearest the ones that bring the most joy?

Aether,

Congratulations on your marriage to Vanitas. It doesn't surprise me that you've found love on this island, and while I do not personally know Vanitas, I know you've picked a partner for yourself who will walk hand-in-hand with you on your journey and stand strong in the face of adversity.

Much uncertainty and tribulation no doubt awaits you in the future, but I hope you take this opportunity to focus on yourself a little. Marriage is a special thing, after all, and you deserve to savor the love you've found.

Still, you'd better remember to stop by the winery with Vanitas every now and then. I'll remember it if you don't. More importantly, should you ever require my assistance in the future, know that I am at your beck and call. We're friends, after all, and I cherish the relationship we share.

All the best,
Diluc.

Vanitas,

I trust Aether has chosen you because you are a man who is capable of supporting him on his journey. Love factors into the equation too, of course, but know that any partner of his will he held to a certain standard that you don't want to fall shy of. I trust that Aether has chosen a partner who meets and exceeds these standards, but should you grow too slack in your support of him, know that it is me you'll be answering to.

Congratulations on your wedding, by the way. I look forward to hearing your opinion on our fine city of Mondstadt. Until then, take care and enjoy your special day.

I'll be watching,
Diluc

[ Oh? He's approaching her!? She's approaching back! Because of course, she has to congratulate Aether, too. He and Vanitas were some of the first customers at her shop, so she holds them in a special regard.

It will always be so, so sweet (and funny) to her that they visited her practically back to back... ]


Aether! Congratulations! Today has been such a beautiful day! Thank you for inviting all of us...
startraveler: (my heart is with you)

[personal profile] startraveler 2023-03-19 05:57 pm (UTC)(link)
[A bright smile appears on his face when he sees that she's approaching him back.]

Thank you! And thank you for coming, Ori!

[Look at him, he's almost glowing today, even if his cheeks are a bit red.]

Is there anything you need? Something I can help with?

[Old habits die hard as they say...]

[ The moment that Aether starts to fuss, Ori waves her hand dismissively. Old habits really do die hard... She understands, because if she'd had a wedding like this of her own, she would be doing the exact same thing. ]

Aether! Goodness... I'm having a fantastic time, and if there's anything I need I can get it myself. Please don't worry and just enjoy your special day!

Dear Aether,

Congratulations on your marriage! You're such a great guy and you deserve all the happiness in the world. I hope that you enjoy going back home to all of your friends, and that you continue on many adventures in the future.

If there's anything that I can do for you, let me know.

Dear Vanitas,

I didn't think my advice would actually end up in a marriage, but I'm glad it did! Congratulations, and I hope you have many happy years ahead of you. The two of you are a great match, and I'm excited to see what adventures you get up to.

Sincerely,

Gaku Yaotome

[He laughs a little.]

I will, don't worry.

[He sighs, then presses a hand to his heart.]

...It's all just so hard to believe.

[But he's happy.]

[When he sees Vanitas offering him the slice of the cake, Aether grins at him.]

I'm so used to helping others and being relied on, that I can't help myself.

[He looks at the cake, then back at his husband. There's a hint of mischievous in his eyes.]

I haven't gotten to tasting the cake yet, but... I'm so tired, I don't think I have any strength left to eat. Help me?

[He's joking!!]
