ceremony.

( Welcome to the wedding ceremony of Kaveh and Alhaitham! This service is taking place on Winter 22nd - situated in the colourful fragrant flower fields. With both of the grooms being Dendro users, it's only natural that they would feel inclined to have a very poignant plant theme for their wedding. Well, most of it came from Kaveh. In fact, all of it came from Kaveh. The artistic man certainly has a flair for drama - it's no surprise that he may have been a little bit of a bridezilla. But with the love and support of Alhaitham and his friends, he managed to put together something extraordinary for the two of them. Something beautiful for Kaveh - yet minimalist for Alhaitham. Perfection.

The music provided by the fairies begins to play, adding to the romantic atmosphere. Alhaitham waits for his spouse beside the fairy priest, observing Kaveh walking down the aisle. Kaveh is wearing a ceremonial outfit reminiscent of their home back in Sumeru, as is Alhaitham. They're bending away from the common tradition, with no one leading Kaveh down the aisle to send him off to his spouse. When Kaveh arrives to where Alhaitham is waiting, both men smile and hold hands. The grooms share their vows beneath the floral arch, before they swap their rings, and share a kiss. )

reception.

( Following the natural theme, their reception is being held outdoors in the forest! It reminds them both fondly of their home in Sumeru. There are books and plants spread out as part of the decorations, with each table marked with a book display. At the open mic, guests are welcome to give speeches, if they like! The meal served at their wedding consists of traditional Sumeru (middle eastern inspired) food - pitta with hummus to start, followed by falafel tabbouleh and finished with candied ajilenakh nut. Finally, it's time to cut the cake! And don't worry, the flowers are edible. Refreshments will be served with wine, champagne or something non-alcoholic for the non-drinkers.

Once the food has been consumed, it's party time! There's outdoor music and plenty of drinks to go around! Kaveh has a big affinity for wine - so he's installed a wine dispensary at the outdoor bar for people to top-up their glasses at. Just be careful not to have too much! And those who choose not to drink are perfectly valid! The guestbook is left open for pleasant messages, and Kaveh and Alhaitham both have a wedding favour to give all the guests. Make sure you visit the two of them before you leave! Thank you for attending! )

[ Had he not spent the past several weeks anticipating this moment, Alhaitham may have found himself more nervous than he is. It wouldn’t be untrue to say that before coming to this island, the concept of commitment to a partner spooked him a bit, though now he’s had more than enough time to reconcile with his rationale and settle on why this is the right choice for him. And his logic and rationale aside, this is just…what he wants. There’s really no need to make it more complicated than that.

So he is calm and collected as the fairy priest recites those lines, his gaze locked on Kaveh across from him, on the way the sunlight catches in his hair, on the way his eyes shine bright. If his heart is racing, it has nothing to do with being anxious. ]

I do.

[ He cuts short the urge to add something teasing. Not now, Alhaitham!!! And then, the fairy priest goes on:

And do you, Kaveh, take this man to be your husband, to live together, to love him, to honor him, to comfort him, and to keep him in sickness and in health, forsaking all others, for as long as you both shall live? ]
