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.

[OOC: Up supersuper early so guests and wedding party members can SP and I can craaaaaaaaash. Ceremony will be added in later in the day, and the inevitable followup post will follow. As they do.]

"I thought this sort of thing only happened in movies," Anakin murmured to her.

"If Bridge's getting stood up, I'm going to...throw a waffle at Xander's head. You got my back?" she hissed, giving him a worried little look.

"Always," he said, brushing his hand against her knee. "Maybe there's some kind of bow tie related emergency?"

Even to Anakin's ears, that seemed lame.

"I think I saw that on Bridezillas once," she said, more to reassure herself than because she believed it.

Re: Ceremony???

[sith_happened]

"Well, that bride deserved it," he babbled. "Trying to get fourteen guys to put on matching bow ties with no mirror. Bad enough she tried to get her bridesmaids all to tan to the same shade..."

Anakin really needed to go back to work.

Rory stared at him.

He hunched up his shoulders. "There's nothing good on at three in the morning."

"I'm just trying to remember if that's the same one where the bride made her groomsmen get matching pedicures," she said mildly.

Re: Ceremony???

[sith_happened]

I love you, he murmured as he shook his head. "I thought that was the girl with the dyed to match poodles."

Re: Ceremony???

She smiled and kissed his cheek. "Was that the one who put her groom on the scary diet that she monitored while eating doughnuts?"

Re: Ceremony???

"And then threw that giant fit when she didn't fit into the dress," he said, nodding.

Anything to stop him from craning his neck to see where Xander was.

"Oooh, remember the one who made her mom buy her a new dress because she got too huge for her old one?" she asked, threading her fingers through his and playing with his hand.

Re: Ceremony???

[sith_happened]

He glanced down at their matching rings and smiled softly. "And then made her cry because of the horrible things she said about the dress her mom was wearing."

Re: Ceremony???

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"To be fair, it was an awful dress," she replied.

Re: Ceremony???

[sith_happened]

"Well, yes," Anakin agreed, "but anyone who could've been in the running Most Lace Worn By a Human shouldn't be mocking anyone else's taste."

Re: Ceremony???

"Is that a real contest?" she wondered, mostly to keep him distracted.

Re: Ceremony???

[sith_happened]

"Maybe?" Anakin replied. "Possibly on Project Runway."

Re: Ceremony???

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Ooh. If it's a real contest, I should enter," she decided.

Re: Ceremony???

[sith_happened]

"...why?" Anakin asked.

Re: Ceremony???

[auroryborealis.livejournal.com]

"Because I could win," she said logically.

Re: Ceremony???

[sith_happened]

"It would be a lot of lace," Anakin said. Yay, distraction.
