WEDDING THREAD
Though the wedding was simple, Mary and Stevie had been working hard with their families over the past week to make sure it'd be beautiful.

When guests first arrive at the park they'd be greeted with a small set up to send them in the right direction. They'd first walk through the reception area, where there are tables set up to drop off any food people might be bringing with them, in between the one holding Sookie's beautiful cake and one holding coolers full of food to be grilled later and lots of drinks, even some with edible flower ice cubes Mary had made up. Across from those there are lots of mis-matched tables and chairs, covered in jars full of bright flowers-which would be a theme running through the wedding. They reminded Mary Ellen of the years when she and Stevie had been young, playing in Peggy's garden together.

Once through the reception area, the ceremony is set up a little more formally, with flowers again lining the aisle, dark wood chairs set up to face a simple floral and birch archway where the two of them would wed. There are no programs, but hanging on the back of each chair there are 2-3 paper cones filled with more flower petals, with instructions printed on the paper that the petals should be thrown both as Mary Ellen walks down the aisle with her dad and again when the newlyweds walk back down after the ceremony.

Almost as soon as the ceremony is over, the grill would be started and all the food and coolers opened up. Guests would be told to help themselves whenever they like for their meal and once everyone seems done eating some of the tables would be pushed aside to form a make-shift dance floor and the music would start up louder. Then, after the ceremonial dances and a few more songs, the cake would be cut and shared all around. The party would go as long as people are interested, with Mary Ellen and Stevie being some of the last to leave.

Along with the food and music there would be other things gathered around to keep guests, especially the little ones, entertained. One table would be covered with butcher paper with crayons and markers, there would be a basket full of bubbles, a twister game, and every table would have a few I spy cards with a note to send all the favorite pictures to Mary and Stevie at the end of the day.

Peggy was bursting with pride as the gathered guests, all chairs occupied to watch the happy occasion. She'd wondered for the longest time if there would be drama in the lead up to the day but Mary had made everything so perfectly simple, natural and beautiful that it made her so damned proud. Her son had chosen well for a wife.

She stood under the birch archway, trying not to sniffle as Mary walked up the aisle with Dean on her arm. Peg winked at Stevie standing there, or jittering really. It was even a standing room as a few extras had come along without a chair to sit on, but it didn't matter really.

All that was needed was for Peggy to clear her throat. "Welcome, everyone, to witness the union between Mary Ellen and Stevie. I can think of nobody who balances each other quite as well as these two standing in front of me now. Love, as a wonderful man once said," she glanced at Bucky and Steve, "Is like coming home. If that is true, then these two have always been at home with one another...." she hoped she was doing well.

"Who gives of this beautiful woman to be married to this man?" she said, giving Dean his cue.

Mary had been jittery the night before, but somehow talking to Stevie-even though he'd been drunk-had calmed that. Something about it all just reassured her how much they loved each other.

She took a deep breath at the door of her dressing tent, her dad already at her side. She smoothed her hands down the front of her dress one last time before she smiled up to him. "Ready?" she asked softly, resisting the urge to bite at her lip. She wasn't wearing a whole lot of make up, but she didn't want to mess up what she was. She'd left most of her hair down, except where she'd pinned the left side away from her face and added the flowers Rarity had made with the dress.

Having chosen not to have a ring bearer, flower girl or bridesmaids-pretty much everyone she would have chosen was too young or hadn't been born yet, Mary knew she'd be walking first, with Hope waiting for her at the other end. Her bouquet was a little wild, having been picked by the tiny Steve and Bucky, with bits of help from Little Stevie and Mouse, but she held it proud, with her arm hooked through her fathers. As she walked down the aisle her "something blue" would be visible on the back of her dress, in the form of a patch she'd cut from the sleeve of one of her mom's old shirts and sewn on in the shape of a heart.

She knew the flower petals were coming but it was still a little bit exciting when they started falling all around her, making he smile wider and laugh softly, even though her eyes only left Stevie for a moment.

By the time she reached her soon-to-be-husband she was a little shaky, her eyes wet but not yet overflowing. She sniffled listening to Peggy, leaning on her dad a little bit, only looking away from Stevie to peer up to her dad with Peggy's question.

Dean had was pretty sure he shined as bright as a new penny. He'd shaved, his hair trimmed and combed, and he was tucked into a tuxedo. He was fidgeting with his tie as she came out. But he stopped the moment she did. His jaw actually dropped. He'd made that. She was half him. And she was absolutely beautiful.

"No, but I think your mother-in-law would be angry at me if I threw you over my shoulder and locked you away." He fought the tears that glittered along his lashes, as he held his arm out to her.

He strolled her down the isle, he couldn't help but notice the man she was going to marry didn't take his eyes off of her one bit. He even seemed to bounce on the balls of his feet. Excited. Like a puppy.

Stevie was so happy. He couldn't help himself. He knew he was grinning like an idiot. But there was no way he could wipe it off. No way he would ever. He missed any looks he was getting from anyone else. Even if he didn't look at her he could hear his Mother's words. Even if he didn't look at anyone but Mary when Dean handed her over to him.

He didn't even turn his eyes away when Dean grumbled, "That's me."

Mary turned for just a minute, looking up at her dad. She stood on her toes to kiss his cheek and put her hand at the base of his tie where he knew the patch she'd made him was. "Don't forget Daddy." she whispered before turning back to the Peggy and Stevie, stepping forward to take her place next to him.

She shifted her bouquet to one hand and held the other out in his direction, peering up to him with a smile.

It took a little time for Rachel to find just the right dress to wear to the party. She certainly didn't want to wear anything white and she still felt like none of her clothes fit just right. Her boys, though barely a month old, were dressed in adorable tuxedo onesies and looked very comfortable in their stroller with matching blue blankets. She'd been a little nervous about coming to the party but it wasn't her day and the bride had asked so she was there. She found a seat at one of the tables and was thankful that, at least for now, the boys were asleep. "And this isn't even their first wedding." She mused aloud to herself.

"They'll be through a lot of them before they turn five, I'd imagine." JR commented, overhearing his sister's comment as he approached. He leaned down to give her a kiss on the cheek.

"Looking good, sis."

Even though the dress was casual, Rory refused to show up to his little sister's wedding in anything less than a suit. Though he did wear it in a sort of casual way. The ceremony was beautiful and he was very happy for Mary. He did wonder if Claire would show up but he wasn't sure if she would.

Though he didn't really need to eat or drink, it was a social situation that called for it so he would. He got a plate and grabbed a beer and then took a seat.

Claire went back and forth about whether or not she was going to this wedding. There was still so much about this place that didn't make sense, but that hadn't stopped her from diving head first into a few aspects of it. Like free booze. And Dean. But this whole thing... the marriage of a grown woman who was supposed to be his daughter to another one of the island's 'sudden children'. It still wielded her out, and it wasn't the only thing.

Eventually she decided on a compromise. The ceremony would feel way too awkward, but the reception she could handle. She showed up in a dress she'd gotten from one of the no-money stores the day before, not long after it started, pointedly avoiding the whole 'introductions' part by skipping right to the bar. Two beers in hand, she strolled through the milling guests still second guessing herself- at least until she spotted Rory.

She sat down in the chair next to him without introduction, taking a deep swig from the first with the other right in front of her. For backup.

"You look nice." Rory said with a smile, taking a drink from his own beer. The alcohol had no real effect on him but he did like the taste, even if most people didn't.

Claire both liked the taste and the effect- and was hoping for a lot of both in the near future. She shot Rory a slightly tense smile, one that said she was there and trying but betrayed the level of awkward she was trying to keep down.

"You too," she replied, half-automatic, before taking another drink. This conversation was just soaring off the ground.

Day time!

A time usually reserved for sleeping. At least for the lunar princess, that is. She had been getting better about rising sometime around early evening to have some daylight hours with friends, working through the night, and having some morning hours to herself to wind down. She liked to watch the sun rise while equally feeling heart sick and home sick. This place, however, was growing on her and the more she thought about it the less she wanted to leave.

She had friends. She had freedom away from royal duties.

Dressed in a billowing dress of chiffon, Luna had left most of her princess regalia at home. She wore only a pair of bracelets and her tiara--they did say it was a casual affair. She smiled and swayed to the music that was playing. The princess hadn't gone too terribly far from her place at the tables, a bit wary because she was at least for the moment alone. Still, the music filled her and she danced.

Hopefully her wings didn't hit anyone. They seemed controlled, hanging inky black and blue feathers behind her back.

Luna & Lisa and Rachel Cuddy

Cuddy had enjoyed the ceremony. Mary Ellen was a great help at the hospital and it was good to see her so happy. Rachel on the other hand, didn't like having to sit still for that part at all and was glad it was over. Instead of colouring as Cuddy hoped she would, Rachel was happily running from place to place, snapping pictures. She had taken a selfie as best dressed, since she loved wearing her sundress with its floral pattern that matched her mother's dress. After that, the goal of finding items on the I spy list had been mostly forgotten and she was simply taking pictures of anything that interested her. At the moment, that was Luna.

Rachel walked over to Luna with a smile on her face. "You have wings and a tiara! Are you a fairy princess?" She lifted the camera to take a picture before giving Luna a chance to answer.

"Rachel." Cuddy said as she approached her.

"Oh!" Rachel said, remembering the rules her mother had given her. "Can I take your picture, please?"

He'd thought Rox was gonna gut him with a teaspoon when he'd rocked up in his tracksuit, but he quickly agreed to change into something Roxy approved of before they left to go to the wedding. Back home, Ryan had swore blind that his tracksuit was fucking aces, but he wasn't back home right now, was he? So, he dressed up a little.

He'd hung back at the ceremony, since he didn't really know anyone but Peggy (and mini-Stevie and Mouse), but once it was over and people started moving about, he headed straight for the drinks.

Peggy and Eggsy

2015-05-23 07:55 am UTC (link)
Part of her couldn't fathom that her baby boy was a married man, even though she had a valid excuse for still thinking of him as her child. Peggy was hoping they'd wait a little while until they made her a grandmother though - she'd only just turned 27 after all, and whilst she wanted a big family, a selfish part of her was happy they'd wait.

She'd danced with her husbands and her son, even with Dean though he grumbled now and then about it. There was one more name on her dance card and Peggy spotted him wearing something far more respectable. It was a little racy for her, but Peggy wore a rather short, pale blue print dress with flat shoes and her hair loose and messy, having been in her army uniform for the ceremony.

"I do believe you owe me a dance," she said to him as she came up to Eggsy from behind. "Or do you not know how?"

Eggsy grinned at the sound of Peggy's voice, and turned to face her. He did know how to dance, and he told her as much. It had been part of his Kingsman training to learn how to conduct himself properly during formal functions along with working out which fork to use for which course during dinner, how to address minor nobles without fucking up and all sorts of other bizarre shit that Harry had seen fit to ram into his brain.

He looked her over to see what she was wearing, and whistled softly. "Agent Peggy Carter, you is lookin' well fit today," he said with a wink, then gestured at her now-healed arm. "You's all better, yeah?" He drank his martini (Harry's method, not his own) and then remembered something else. "I owe you a drink! Martini?"

By about half way through the reception, after all of her dances were done and food had been eaten, Mary had been distracted by babies. Her shoes were abandoned under a table somewhere and after a few minutes of twirling around with the little girls she settled in to the grass, dress and petticoat puffing out in a wide circle around her while she held Mouse in her lap, teaching the little girl how to blow bubbles and watching her older brother chase after to pop them.

Logan was only slightly annoyed at his mother for leaving him with Franny. But it was just slightly. He really did love his little sister very much, but he wasn't used to her being a baby. He had gotten slightly dressed up at his mother's request though he reminded her that it was a casual event so he got some leeway in what he was wearing. Franny was dressed up though. They still didn't understand why her hair turned red as she got older, but nobody really investigated it. She was adorable either way.

"Hi."

Isabel certainly wasn't going to pass up the chance to see Dean in a tuxedo, and the sight was not a disappointment. He cleaned up very well. Her dress was very comfortable and maybe a little sexier than her sons would have liked. After the ceremony, she went to the bar and got a glass of water, looking over at Logan who was sitting with Franny in his lap looking completely lost. She chuckled to herself before sipping her water. Eddie was off somewhere with the younger versions of himself and his brother.

He had arrived literally the day before but he definitely wanted to attend the wedding. Stevie was his brother, after all, and he hadn't gotten to attend his marriage to Mary Ellen the first time around. He'd dressed very nicely, even though the occasion didn't necessarily call for it. His intent wasn't to upstage anyone, just to look good and maybe catch the eye of any single ladies who happened to attend. And possibly to impress a certain pony princess. But he'd never admit to that.

He headed straight to the bar as soon as he got the chance, getting a beer and taking a long drink. He kept his eyes on the people milling around, ready to leave if the time came that someone asked. He didn't want to make his parents uncomfortable, especially since they weren't his parents yet.

His hair was rebraided, with a couple more beads worked in, and he'd checked everything he was wearing to make sure it was looking as good as possible. He really liked how people had their weddings outside, he mused, crouching down at the back and still seeing over everyone's heads. He remembered his own Mating night and glanced round to Neytiri with a smile, reaching for her hand as the ceremony continued.

Afterwards, he just got to his feet and stretched as tall as he could, ignoring his younger self as he ran past, and laughed to himself when he spotted the new guy who looked like younger Tommy staring over at him from the drinks part. Jake just sketched a quick salute to him before looking round to see who else was there.

Neytiri was wearing her hair loose, curls cascading. She had a single flower in her hair. Rather than traditional Na'vi dress, she wore something made just for her. An indigo strapless dress with a tight bodice and a flowing skirt that went to her knee. She'd kept her attire a secret from Jake, wanting to surprise him. She smiled as she walked up to him.

"Oel ngati kameie, ma Jake."

(OOC: But Na'vi sized, of course lol)
