Who: Seamus Finnigan, Luna Lovegood?, and OPEN
What: The Wedding Reception! Of DOOM!
Where: A meadow in Northern Ireland.
When: Wednesday June 18th, 2002. Early afternoon
Rating: E for everybody!
Status: Open/In progress.

The wedding had been pretty amazing by Seamus' standards. He had no idea how Luna and his mam got on, but they had managed one hell of a wedding. Even the reception was amazing. A maypole, flowers everywhere, plenty of green, lively music, and alcohol. Lots of alcohol. Seamus could only hope certain people were staying from the alcohol. He really did not need a scene.

Thinking back on the wedding, Seamus pulled his tie off and unbuttoned the top of his shirt. It was too bloody hot in the day to be wearing so many layers. He smiled as he remembered actually seeing Luna walking down the aisle. He barely knew her and she seemed the most beautiful woman in the world at the moment. He had been so happy his mother had insisted on flowers in her hair. Seamus had forgotten the priest was talking to him for a moment as he smiled at his bride. Only a sharp jostle from his best man had brought him to attention.

Seamus smiled, grabbing a glass of lager out of somebody's hands as he searched out his wife. Wife. Now that was an amazing word. Afraid he wouldn't be able to find anybody in the crowd he yelled out, "OI! Anybody seen me wife?" He rolled his eyes as a man nearby made fun of him for losing her already. Another man was commenting how that was never a good sign. "Bloody drunkards."

"Ginny!" Luna exclaimed happily when the red haired woman came made her way into their little circle. "My honorable maiden." Ginny had been the very first person to come to mind when Luna had thought of a maid of honor. The woman was easily her very best female friend and since she knew that Ginny still didn't agree with the entire idea of the Ministry arranging marriages, it made her agreement to be in the wedding even more special.

She nodded to Harry. "Seamus's mother was very much the same. She had her own ideas on how she wanted the wedding to go but luckily it wasn't too different from mine. Well Ginny, don't you have to marry...Wayne was it? By the end of the week or its a trip Azkaban for you." The words were spoken casually, as if she was simply speaking of a trip to the market. Really, she knew Ginny was still beyond reluctant about her upcoming marriage but there wasn't anything she could do about it. Luna would hate to see her friend in such a horrible place as Azkaban.

"Well, it wouldn't really be terrible because technically she would no longer be a Greengrass but a Potter." She blinked up at him. "Right?"

Ginny's eyebrows raised in response to Luna's greeting. Luna held a very specific and different spot in her heart, though it was very close to and often the spot her family belonged in. Though, she found she didn't have as many arguments with Luna as with the latter. Her mouth spread into a grin as she feigned a curtsie as well as she could. "At your service, I suppose. Should you need any honourable maiden services." Of course would have agreed. She had learned to agree with what Luna says more often. The woman had a knack for unseen wisdom, despite the dreamy demeanor she exuded.

Ginny's eyes watched the interaction between Harry and Luna. While Ginny may have been more quiet than normal, she hadn't exactly noticed it. She did notice the twisted feeling she got in her stomach, though, when that certain marriage conversation came up. "I guess. Though a whole wedding may cost as much as the first defense for refusal." She shrugged after taking another sip of her drink and looked to Luna again. "Besides, the wedding would be shabby compared to this one." While it was a compliment, Ginny meant it wholeheartedly. She doubted any wedding where the two people didn't want to be there would be as lovely as one in which they did.

A smirk returned to Ginny's face as Luna addressed Harry. "Right, isn't that how it works?" Her teasing tone was hard to disguise.

"Oh definitely," Harry grinned. "Nothing could possibly compare with this. I have to had it to you Luna. You conquered Seamus, his mother, and put on the Wedding of the year. No easy feat."

Harry didn't mind talking about other weddings, but when it came to his own, he was still having some difficulties coming to terms with the fact that it was actually going to happen...this coming Saturday as a matter of fact. Just the very idea of it being so near made him wince. Plenty of grooms experienced cold feet, but this was ridiculous.

"It doesn't necessarily have to cost a fortune. It just depends on what you want and where you want it. Hell, you could grab two witnesses, a groom, and an official and you've got yourself a wedding."

"I don't think I have quite conquered Seamus yet." Luna laughed lightly. "It's more that we are both compromising for mutual happiness."

It was the best thing either of them could do in the situation. She wanted to be happy and she wanted Seamus to be happy and the only way for that to happen was for the both of them to find a middle ground. Today, she actually found herself feeling that happiness, that contentment. She was going to do her best to make sure things stayed like this as long as they were together.

"I'm sure both of your weddings will be wonderful."
