Private Beach, Neptune, California, Sunset on Saturday, 8/16

[needsaparrot]

Nobody much cares where you sit, since it's not like there's a bride's side, or like Xander and Bridge don't share all the same friends, but the green fabric deck chairs are separated by a white runner anyway.

Lit on either side by softly-muted glow-balls, it leads down to a chupah that's -- contain your shock -- just as green.

In fact, it looks pretty much like this:




Welcome to the Carson-Harris wedding.

Arrive!

[needsaparrot]

It's not quite sunset yet; people can still see your pretty clothes. And your pretty date. ...Or lack thereof, yes.

Tori couldn't wait for the ceremony to begin. She'd decided on a blue dress (http://imagecloset.com/10/b62c673f31e46504dd803e2c3a2b9873/laura%20blue%20dress%20re.jpg), no surprise there and happened to not have a date. Not that she minded, of course!

'Pretty clothes' was a weird definition. Kerrigan had none that really fit anymore. She was wearing a long, black coat-- and underneath, the armor was raised, quite possibly in subconscious reaction.

Still, she kept her paces firm and her jaw set and you'd have to pay attention to notice she was hovering closer to Harriet than she'd like to admit.

Veronica and Dick arrived.

On time, even, despite Dick getting distracted by Veronica's dress (http://www.bluefly.com/Alexia-Admor-nude-lace-corset-strapless-dress/cat20114/206826000/detail.fly).

Aly couldn't help but approve strongly of any wedding that involved being on a beach. Even if it hadn't been a couple she wished every happiness to, she would have been thrilled.

Parker had gotten a bright green sleeveless bridesmaid's dress, high high heels in honor of the ceremony, and yes, an extra pair to hide under her chair. Just in case anyone got any cute ideas.

A date being lacking, she might have been looking around speculatively at the single guys.

Re: Arrive!

River arrived wearing her favourite blue dress, as well as a few pieces of jewellry, most of them gifts from Parker. There was no date by her side, but that wasn't really important.

Re: Arrive!

[goodgirlmeg.livejournal.com]

Meg and her wolf-ified boyfriend arrived. She had considered putting a little bow tie on him but she figured that Dean wouldn't appreciate that very much. It would have been so adorable though.

Re: Arrive!

[not_in_the_book]

Ronan arrived sans date (though not single -- sorry, Parker single ladies), dressed to the nines.

Re: Arrive!

[not-ironmaiden.livejournal.com]

Tony did, in fact lack a date.

He did, however, have a personal assistant with him. When he tags in. Poor, poor Sam. "It's very green."

Re: Arrive!

[bigdamnprincipal]

Zoe was starting to get used to the whole dressing up for happy occasions thing. It helped that John who was being modded mwahaha looked good in a suit, and that dressing Grace up was downright fun.

Re: Arrive!

[izzyalienqueen.livejournal.com]

Isabel as there, running around making sure the last minute details were all set. It's possible she was still a tiny bit disgruntled about missing the bachelor party.

Re: Arrive!

[oatmanspatient.livejournal.com]

Marty was there. In his suit. Of course. Presumably with Angela when she pings in

Re: Arrive!

[likethegun]

Sam was tugging self-consciously at his pants, wondering how it was possible that he'd grown more since the last time he'd worn his suit, and hoping Dawn wasn't embarrassed by being seen with him.

Re: Arrive!

[sensethevisions]

Phoebe showed up with Cole. She was happy with the dress she had chosen, and she was almost bouncing with excitement for her friends and their wedding.

Re: Arrive!

[absolutesnark]

Piper was there with Lindsey. She was also wearing a pretty dress.

Re: Arrive!

[sith_happened]

Anakin and Rory arrived. Anakin, as always, was in his dark robes, and was holding onto Rory's hand slightly more tightly than normal.

Re: Arrive!

[sarcasm-guy.livejournal.com]

Sokka showed up on his own, since his date was off doing important wedding party things. True to his word, he was dressed to the nines in a (moderately) expensive suit that was such a dark navy that it looked black. His tie wasn't even loud, or anything.

And he was not at all disheveled, either. Well, mostly. To be perfectly clear, the suit was absolutely perfect when he put it on this morning, and any lack-of-sheveledness, if there was any, happened sometime afterwards.

Chris and Summer orbed in from Paris.

Chris was even wearing a tie.

Before the Wedding: Mingle!

[needsaparrot]

Chat up old friends! Or, you know. Avoid them by chatting up someone else.

Re: Before the Wedding: Mingle!

[water-wonder.livejournal.com]

Like Tori wasn't going to mingle, please.

Before the Wedding: Bridge's Cabana

[needsaparrot]

A ways down the beach from the chupah, there's a dressing cabana, with a groom. Who has gloves.

[For members of the wedding party to torment cheer on Bridge before the ceremony - other folks should check with Bridgeymun before pinging in.]

Re: Before the Wedding: Bridge's Cabana

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

Said groom with the gloves is busy straightening his tie for about the eleventeen-zillionth time in the past fifteen minutes.

Before the Wedding: Xander's Cabana

[needsaparrot]

A ways up the beach from the chupah, there's another dressing cabana, with a groom. Who no can has gloves.

[For members of the wedding party to torment cheer on Xander before the ceremony - other folks should check with me before pinging in. For the sake of my sanity.]

Re: Before the Wedding: Xander's Cabana

[needsaparrot]

Said groom without the gloves is wondering where his cuff-links went.

Procession

[needsaparrot]

Down under the chupah there's a frog tank with a black paper bow-tie taped to the side. At the other end of the runner, there's a wedding party.

You know, those six girls who get to dress up real pretty and not wear blood larvae?

Oh, and Anders.

Because that's gonna end well.

Procession: Parker and Anders

Ceremony

[The parts of which will be going up a bit later, so Watch This Space.]

Re: Ceremony???

[bridge-carson.livejournal.com]

Well, there's *one* groom present. At some weddings, this is the expected number. At this one... not so much.

As he gets there, Bridge is all smiles. The grin fades, however, once a minute or two passes and still no Xander.

[ooc: wedding party peoples feel free to react here. Audience thread up in a 'mo.]

OOC

[needsaparrot]

YAY MARRIEDS!

Ping me here or in IM if you have any questions, because OH yeah, comment notifications getting turned off.

Re: OOC

[water-wonder.livejournal.com]

And massive slowplay for me because I have to go to a friend's wedding today. I'll ping in to the rest when I get back (which hopefully won't be too late!).
