𝒜𝑒𝓉𝒽𝑒𝓇 & 𝒱𝒶𝓃𝒾𝓉𝒶𝓈

[ 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 – 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. Noé 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 – 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 – 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 desire… 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 – well, more like they decided to do some things for the married couple on their own – 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. ]

[Surprise, Vanitas! Your invite got to Owen, unfortunately enough. Also unfortunately, Owen has decided that since this is as close to a send off as they can get... a throwback to their first meeting is in order.

The witch has at least dressed up for the occasion, grey hair pinned up neatly, with subtle makeup and manicured nails. There's a sly grin on her face as she approaches, catching the face he's making at his tarte tatin and the cake.]

Is it not to your liking, Vanitas?

[She'll take the slice if he doesn't want it tho.]

[unchainer]

[ As soon as Owen shows up, Vanitas knows why Owen is like this today. Her outfit is so loud, and he is suddenly exhausted. But, he did toss an invitation Owen's way after their conversation at the bar that one night, so he supposes he should have expected this. He liked Owen a lot better when they were drunk!!! ]

It's way too sweet.

[ He pushes his plate towards Owen. ]

You take it, if you want it.

[sicklysweet]

[She’s gladly taking that plate and immediately having a bite. Seems fine enough to her.]

Maybe you just have bad taste.

[Don’t mind her polishing off the cake.]

So. Which one of you popped the question?

[unchainer]

[ It's honestly fine, Vanitas is just very picky. But he's about to sip on some water when Owen asks his question. It's a good thing he didn't drink anything just yet, because he sure would've choked on it. He groans and meets Owen with a half-hearted scowl. If it wasn't his wedding day, it probably would've been worse. ]

Does it matter?

[ The blush on his cheeks, though, says everything. ]

If you want something to laugh about, go read a tabloid.

[sicklysweet]

[It doesn’t take her much time to finish the cake, and she’s not moved by Vanitas’ scowl. He’s made worse faces at her.]

I think your face is answer enough.

[If Owen were a nicer person, maybe she’d think it’s cute.]

I shouldn’t be surprised after the way you were talking about him all those weeks ago.

[Was it really that long ago that they sat at the bar drinking and complaining?]

[unchainer]

What, it's not like you're not hopelessly in love with that man you talked about, either.

[ Which is an indirect way of him unknowingly admitting his feelings for Aether, as if they weren't already immediately obvious!! ]

You brought him along, didn't you? I have yet to meet him, but he and Aether seem to be on friendly terms.

[ Unlike these two morons over here. ]

[sicklysweet]

We're not getting married, though.

[Owen doesn't have a ring on his finger!! Even though Otegine did technically propose, that is stuff for... in the future.]

Do you want me to introduce you? I know you struggle with things like proper manners.

[Can Owen really talk...]
