[Hel]
White or cream?



[Helena]
I know your angry but if you would just talk to us we could explain everything better.

>> Traditionally yes. Historians claim that Queen Victoria wore a white wedding dress to symbolize wealth and class. There are even cultures where white symbolizes death
>> I am not surprised that you would suggest we mock tradition.

>> If one of us wears white and the other cream is that putting forth a message that one is pure and the other isn't?

>> In regards to alcohol, I do not know. What do you think? I am content with just wine and champagne. Though I might also like a glass of sherry, it is difficult to tell.
>> A wedding planner would be an excellent idea. Any help we can get would be something I am in favour of.

>> But barbecue food can be quite delicious though not exactly suggested when one is wearing white.
>> I think a combination of our favorite flowers is perfect.
>> Wine and champagne is classier than an open bar. We could do wine and champagne and save your glass of sherry for after the reception.
>> The wedding planner may only have to help us find locations and help with budgeting.
>> Still, no, on omitting a letter.
>> I know that I should say no but I want to hear you speaking Old English.

>> Delicious it may be, it would not be the best choice of food when dressed for a formal occasion, regardless of colour worn.
>> I doubt it would blend well with wine and champagne.
>> That sounds perfectly reasonable to me.
>> It would still be welcomed assistance.
>> Oh but you are, my dear.
>> Is that simply because you like hearing other languages being spoken, or that you simply want to hear me speak something exotic, leof*?


[OOC: According to a translator, "leof" is an Old English word for "beloved."]
