The Wedding day

Thank you so much for all who attended our Vana'diel wedding ceremony, the reception and the wedding Besieged! It has been a day to remember, and the presence of our friends truly made it perfect. ^^


When the day of the wedding arrived, Pasifika was quite nervous - but also very happy as you can imagine. In the rehearsals the Temple Knight commended Pasifika, Phucrabiont and Donthitme for being well prepared. :D Well, Donthitme stumbled a little while practicing, but the Temple Knight assured everyone he would look cute all the same because he's a tarutaru. ^^

There were some rules and instructions the guests needed to follow, or in the worst case the wedding could've been cancelled, so Donthitme worked hard to make everyone behave. In the meanwhile, Pasifika and Phucrabiont went over the details of the ceremony one last time. Finally everything and (at least almost) everyone was ready, and the guests were led in to the garden.

After all had settled down, Phucrabiont approached the Temple Knight, and Pasifika - accompanied by Donthitme - followed some time after him as they had been instructed. The Temple Knight spoke of love and and starting a journey together. Pasifika and Phucrabiont swore on their honour to love and never to betray each other for all eternity, even should their blades be sundered and quivers emptied.All in all the San d'Orian ceremony was very much centered on weaponry, which was also reflected in the wedding wows.

After the official ceremony was over, the guests offered their blessings to the newlyweds by clapping, cheering and using fireworks. All of the fireworks were very festive and pretty, but wasn't shooting rockets at the couple and the wedding master a bit too much? ^^;

The wedding reception took place in Kokba Hostel at Aht Urghan Whitegate. Everyone was invited to join and a good number of friends came there to celebrate. In the middle of the festivities Phucrabiont made a stunning confession: every now and then he turns into a rarab! D: (Not many outside San d'Oria know this, but that is definitely a sign he's well suited to be an heir the San d'Orian throne!)

Pasifika was more than willing to keep the cuddly and cute rarab, and she was hoping this new turn of events would also help others to accept her dark secret... she has a tendency to turn into a tiny Mandragora! She didn't get as much understanding as she had hoped, though, as some of the guests readied their scythes and Phucrabiont the rarab eyed the leaves on top of her head hungrily.... ;_;

The reception party was very much fun and the foods, drinks, fireworks, costume cakes and the mystical 'digestive magic' kept the guest amused for a good while. But as it happened, Pasifika had also sent invitations to the local beastmen... She had hoped some cute Poroggos would come, or perhaps a Lamia Songstress would drop by to perform some of those absolutely charming songs, but... it was the Trolls that decided to show up. ;>_>

Well, since they had come all this way... the groom, bride, chaperone and most of the wedding guests promptly moved to Al Zahbi to meet the advancing Trolls. Fun and excitement! :D
