Giles stumbled in, blinking with surprise to find the door after so long. He'd been in the process of a special mission with Faith. He glanced at the board. Oh, yes... been so long, he had almost forgotten.
He considered the notice, and then went to write a note for Willow in reply. A rare chance for joy should always be treasured and cherished after all.
Clive didn't read the messageboard often, but sometimes something would catch his eye on the way past. Wedding announcement? Yeah, that was one of those.
And the fact that they needed someone who could sew made him grin, scampering back up the stairs to get one of his design books and a notepad, scrawling out a quick note: Hi, we've never met, my name's Clive, I'm up in room 83, and I'm a fashion designer back home, but I also make costumes and things all the time, please have a look at the design book included with this note and get back to me if you're interested. Best wishes for both of you, Clive
Tali heard that people sometimes put advertisements on the notice board when they have an odd job that needs doing: ever since, she's been checking it whenever she comes in. Commander Shepard is covering her bar expenses, but Tali feels an obligation to pull her own weight where she can - and a similar one to take advantage of opportunities for employment when they present themselves.
She writes out a reply in neat block letters:
Dear Willow Rosenberg,
(Tali is not yet comfortable with human naming conventions. Also, she is unsure whether Willow is a male or female name, so she deems it best to try and skirt around the whole gender thing.)
I noticed your advertisement for a seamstress on the board downstairs. I have many years of experience with sewing and could help you make or adjust your wedding clothes. I can even show you some samples of my needlework if you wish. If you are interested, please leave a note for me at the Bar.

Goldy spies the notice on her next sortie downstairs. There's a slight frown on her face as she pens a reply under it.
Ready when you are.

PS: I see that you made some 'edits' to my very catchy draft version of this notice. Personally, I don't think it's very impressive without the exploding framework and the flaming font. Let's just hope that my opinion is not shared by the general bar populace.

His jaw drops slightly in surprise. Willow and Tara here now? Whenever did that happen?
Well, no matter. If there's to a wedding, he certainly wants to be there for it.
And so he heads over to Bar to begin writing a note....
