ceremony.

( Welcome to the wedding of Diluc, Kaeya and Amber! On the afternoon of Winter 24th, these three have decided to hold their ceremony and exchange their vows in the beautiful flowering fields. Hailing from a land worshipping the God of Wind, an open space with a pleasant breeze feels just right. As a nod to their home, handmade pinwheels can be spotted planted among the flowers, with red, blue, gold and white decorations lining the arch where they will be wed.

Waiting at the arch together are Diluc and Kaeya, anticipating the arrival of their bride. The music, provided by the fairies, begins to play when Amber walks down the aisle, with the long white trail of her dress following behind her. In her arms is a bouquet crafted by Ori, containing flowers in an arrangement of red, blue and white - a perfect representation of herself and her spouses. As another part of Ori's handiwork, she has flowers braided into her hair. She is escorted down the aisle by her best man, Aether, who hands her off into the arms of her soon-to-be husbands before the ceremony begins.

After pleasant words are spoken to honour their union, the three of them are all pronounced wed. With the all-clear to kiss their spouses: Kaeya and Diluc share a kiss, before each of them lean down to kiss their bride, Amber. The wind picks up right as they share a kiss, animating Amber's dress and blowing a several of the surrounding flowers into the sky. Whether it's a coincidence or what - the Outrider considers it a blessing from the God of Wind. There are visible smiles and laughter shared between this brand new married trio - it's apparent that they're all elated with their choice to marry each other. )

reception.

( When night begins to fall, it's party time! Naturally, the reception is being held at the business venue belonging to one of the grooms: Dämmerung Bar & Winery! The place is very well-lit and beautifully decorated. The bride has dressed down for the occasion into a lighter outfit, too (minus the bunny) - in order for her to move more freely and enjoy the party. Some of the decorations look incredibly on brand, as well. Food will be served once all of the guests have taken a seat at their table, marked with a pinwheel. At the open mic, guests are welcome to give speeches, if they like!

The meal - a three course meal featuring quality steak - is served with champagne to toast and a glass of wine or grape juice. Once food is consumed, the three spouses head up to cut their wedding cake together. In an impulsive burst of mischief, Kaeya spreads some icing onto Diluc's face and laughs at his husband's unamused scowl - to which Amber retaliates by asking Diluc to lean down in order for her to kiss it off his cheek. Kaeya then decides to smear icing on his own cheek to receive the same treatment from their wife!! These three are insufferable.

After food, cake and your beverage of choice - it's time to dance! The wine will be flowing all night long, because what kind of Ravngindr-Alberich wedding would it be otherwise? And those who choose not to drink are perfectly valid! In the manner of tradition, Amber will toss her bouquet! The guestbook is left open for pleasant messages, and Amber has crafted a wedding favour for all of the guests to take with them. Party on! Thank you for attending! )

To Amber, Diluc, and Kaeya –

Congratulations on your marriage! It has been a huge honor and pleasure to know all three of you. You all look so happy together, and I teared up at your ceremony. Oops. When all of you have a moment, please come and see me. I have something to give to each of you. Congrats again!

Amber, I'm so glad that you were able to find two people you're happy spending your life with! Good for you, I'm happy for you!

Kaeya, you may have been a menace sometimes, but I'm also glad that you've found happiness. You deserve it!

Diluc, thanks for everything. I'm glad I have someone as kind as you as my friend. I hope you live a happy life with your two spouses, please don't forget about me!

Sincerely,
Lucia

[This is a day Diluc never thought would come, standing beside Kaeya at the altar while they wait for their bride-to-be to arrive. The fairy priest is dabbing his eyes with tissues already, but here's hoping he can hold it together long enough for the exchanging of vows.]

[pyronic]

[A dance, you say? Allow Diluc to have the first, approaching Amber and outstretching a hand to her. Ah, his wifey.............]

Shall we?

[outride]

( HER HUSBANDY!! ) Yes, please! ( She places her hand into his, stepping onto the floor. Excuse her as a blush tickles her cheeks when they begin to move. )

You look so handsome. ( Like. Wow. How did she get not only one gorgeous husband, but two? None of this feels real. )

[pyronic]

[One hand settles low on Amber's back while the other lifts to caress her cheek. Diluc couldn't be happier and couldn't look much happier either, gently guiding her along.]

And you look more beautiful than I could've imagined. With each passing day, you charm me more than the last.

[calla]

[ Kaeya waits patiently by Diluc's side, looking down the aisle for their soon bride-to-be. Although it's not often that he feels nervous or has butterflies in his stomach, he can't help but be giddily excited over the ceremony. He didn't expect to ever find love, much less with two people. Diluc looks absolutely stunning, and he expects that Amber will look just as gorgeous as she normally is. ]

[outride]

Diluc ... ( She giggles - the corners of her eyes wrinkling as she smiles and laughs. )

C-Careful you don't make me cry. I can't let my mascara run again...! ( Because she absolutely cried during their ceremony. Wedding make-up is difficult! )

[pyronic]

Why not?

[Hehehe. Diluc knows she'd rather keep her makeup intact, but...]

You look beautiful both with and without makeup. If you cry, I'm right here to catch your tears.

[irresponsibly]

[ Favors! What sort of favor does Amber have for them? ]

[unchainer]

[ He'll claim he's here because Aether's Amber's best man, but honestly, congrats to Amber, too. He's off to the side somewhere, but he'll accept a favor if she has one for him. ]

[outride]

( Ehehe ... ) I know you will.

( What a wonderful thought. They're married, and he's her solace now. Along with Kaeya ... what a lucky woman she is. Amber closes her eyes and smiles warmly, swaying happily with the music. A tear does escape, but it's easy enough for her to swipe away with her thumb. )

Thank you. For everything. For today, for marrying me ... for allowing me to be your wife. I feel so lucky. I don't think I've ever felt so happy before. ( After suffering in silence for years, it's momental. )

[pyronic]

Mm. I should be the one thanking you.

[Amber manages to swipe away that tear, but Diluc is quick to lean in and follow it up with a kiss on her cheek.]

You've more than earned your happiness, Amber, and I want to thank you for helping me find mine. Had we not met, I doubt I'd ever know bliss like this.

[outride]

( With their beloved Traveller linked to her arm, Amber walks down the aisle, with her smile widening with each step she takes towards her soon-to-be husbands. She's nervous - but so excited - evident by the way her eyes sparkle and how she can't control the overflow of joyous emotion on her face. Eventually she arrives at the top of the meadow beneath the arch with her grooms, situating herself in the middle of them, glancing up at Kaeya - then Diluc - before pushing out a soft giggle. )

Hi. ( She combs a hand through her fringe, the curls of her long wavy hair swaying in the breeze. Diluc and Kaeya look breathtaking - she can't take her eyes off them. )

[pyronic]

[You want to talk about breathtaking? Diluc's at a loss for words when Amber makes her way down the aisle, and even with her veil obscuring her face, Diluc knows she looks nothing short of stunning beneath it.

Exchanging knowing glances with Kaeya, Diluc takes hold of one corner of the veil. He and Kaeya will lift it together.]

Hello to you too. Is that all you have to say?

[He's teasing, of course, in an effort to keep the tone light and their spirits high. Will someone end up crying? No doubt, but for the time being, he wants to allay any nerves that might be hanging about.]

[hearthwarming]

Dear Amber,
Congratulations! It is so wonderful to see you so happy and glowing on your special day! Thank you for inviting me. I'm going to remember this day for a long time, and I hope you keep the light of it in your heart for a very long time, too.

I'm going to miss seeing you around so very much, but I know that you're going to be even happier back in your home with your loves, and that's enough for me. I know that you're going to be the most wonderful wife to them, but now you have two whole husbands to rely on, too! So when you're not feeling your best, so don't forget to let them take care of you too, all right?

And thank you for letting me contribute a little bit to your special day!

Dear Mister Diluc and Mister Kaeya,
While I don't know either of you very well, I trust that Amber has chosen two incredible people as her life partners, and I also trust that both of you truly know what an incredible person she is, too. I have known her for only a fraction of the time that either of you have, but it really has been such an honor. I feel at ease knowing that when she leaves this place, she will be loved and taken care of in the way that she deserves.


Wishing the three of you a lifetime of love and happiness,
Oriphi ✿

a celebratory dwink with kaenya

[pyronic]

[After Diluc's gotten all the dancing out of his system, he turns to Kaeya who, unsurprisingly, is following up dances with booze. Diluc sighs.]

You can't shelve your alcoholism for a single day?

[That said, he shoos Kaeya's hand away from the bottle so he can pour it for him... and one for himself as well. Cheers, husband.]

[outride]

I feel exactly the same as you ... there you were, under my nose the entire time back home in Mondstadt, working behind the bar at Angel's Share ... to think you were the love of my life and I didn't even know it.

( Alongside Kaeya, of course. She giggles. )

I always did hear words of praise about you while running errands in Mond, you know. Everywhere I went, the women would sigh and swoon over how attractive you were. ( Another giggle! ) I suppose you can say I've learned the appeal ... here's hoping there won't be a mob after me when I go home! ( She takes a breath, and gazes deeply in his eyes. ) But there's so much more to you than your money and your looks. Wealth doesn't matter to me ... all that matters to me is love and family. And now with you and Kaeya, I have a family again. ( She might cry, actually. )

[calla]

[ Kaeya holds his breath when he spots Amber, immediately stunned by her beauty. She already looks amazing in her normal everyday clothes, but in that dress? He'll commit her image in his memory, but he also hopes that someone is around with a kamera. He'd love to reminiscence about this moment. ]

[ He holds onto the other end of the veil and lifts it alongside Diluc. He's never cared about taking off his eyepatch, but now he wishes that he didn't wear it so he could look at her without any obstructions. ]

No need to be shy now.

[pyronic]

[Oh dear... Yes, he's aware he garnered quite the reputation without even intending to. Diluc chuckles, tucking soft strands of hair back behind Amber's ear when the gentle breeze guides it astray.]

The three of us know too well how much it aches to lose family. I consider myself blessed to have married the two people who matter most to me, but more importantly, to finally have a family again. Amber... I can't wait to watch our family grow throughout the years.

[translation: babie time]

[calla]

[ To no one's surprise, Kaeya has immediately beelined to the open bar. What's a better way to celebrate a joyous day with a glass of wine? Or a handful of glasses? He was just about to pour himself one when Diluc comes to judge him. Kaeya can only respond with his usual mischievous smile. ]

What can I say? Alcoholism is my middle name, my dear husband. [ Referring to Diluc as his husband makes his heart beat faster. Taking his glass, he holds it up so he can clink it against Diluc's. ] I'm glad to see that you're not being a stick in a mud today.

[outride]

( It's true: The three of them have some kind of hurt in their pasts. This ceremony is the promise of a bright future for all of them. For Diluc, Amber, Kaeya, and ...? )

Grow ... ( HEHEHEHEHE ) You mean...?
