Wedding

[prince_arithon]

The suite is 123.

Lilly has done a beautiful job. Gold and green sun-catchers spin the last lights of the sun into a riot of color for the guests who arrive early, giving the room that Cathedral look. The bride (and assorted vampires) will arrive after the lights are gone.

The groom is persuading his caith'd'ein that, really, he's not going to

Raven entered the room, trying hard not to bite at her lip, fidget or otherwise look as awkward as she felt. The dress she wore made her feel even more exposed than her uniform did.

She stopped at the door and looked for a seat.

Random, who arrived with Ramon, smiles at her, and waves slightly.

"Been a while."

*smiles a bit nervously and nods* Yes, sir, it has.

How have you been?

Readings

[prince_arithon]

The first reading:
10
When one finds a worthy wife, her value is far beyond pearls.

11
Her husband, entrusting his heart to her, has an unfailing prize.

12
She brings him good, and not evil, all the days of her life.

The second reading:6

Vows

[prince_arithon]

And after the service has been read, it is finally time for the vows.

She doesn't need to breathe, not really, but she takes a quick breath anyway. Turning to face Arithon, Bianca smiles and then, quietly but firmly, speaks.

"I, Bianca Maria Solderini, take you Arithon s'Ffalenn, to be my husband, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish; from this day forward until true death do us part."

"I, Arithon s'Ffalenn, son of Avar s'Ffalenn, Tier's'Ffalenn, Master of Shadows, Masterbard of Athera, Spinner of Darkness, Bane of Desh-theire, Crown Prince of Karthan, Crown Prince of Rathain, Sorcerer,"

He has to take a breath there, and gives her a laughing smile as he does so,

"and Pirate, take you Bianca Maria Solderini, to be my wife, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish; from this day forward until true death do us part."

Then he lifts her hand and sets the ring on it.

Aziraphael has become rather good at adaptation, over the years, and he's learned his lines carefully.

"Bianca," he says clearly, turning to give the young lady a smile, "do you pledge yourself, body, mind, and heart to serve Rathain and Karthan, to guard, to hold unified, and to deliver justice according to Ath's law?"

"It does and it doesn't," Lilly replies, shrugging.

"And yeah, I think Arithon's happy about it."

She grins.

"I think he's happy about almost everything today, though."
