001 🌠an invitation
Sender: Tifa Lockhart & Eustace
To: Everyone
Subject: A wedding!

Hi everyone! Tifa and Eustace here.
Some of you already know that Eustace and I are getting married this winter but consider this our official announcement. And an invitation!
The wedding ceremony will be at the Corgi Tree at 2PM and will be closed to friends only. However, we will be holding the reception at 5PM along the Riverside and will be open to the public. Everyone is welcome to attend, even if just to grab a free meal. Directions are provided.
So, I've been wondering what kind of traditions you all have in your own worlds? I've never been to one before myself, so I'd love to hear about things you've all seen or done! Maybe even borrow a few to start out a few new Reverein traditions.
OOC NOTE: ALL characters are welcome to the reception regardless of whether or not they have CR with Tifa and/or Eustace! There will be a log will be going up on December 3 for this, so please look forward to it! Both Tifa and Eustace will be responding.

sender: Ferran; i'm sorry

[ there look to be wet marks all over the page when her message comes through. she totally wasn't weeping while reading this and accidentally imprinted the tear stains. ]
I actually attended a wedding, when I woke up from here and then came back not too long ago... But it was quite similar to what you two are planning!

Look, I know you dropped by the smithy earlier and I just wanted to complete your order before it was too late, Tifa.

Really!? I mean, that would be lovely, but... a gift? That feels like a lot, doesn't it?

And I suppose congratulations to you too, Sparky. Hurt her, and I'll break your legs off.

Congratulations!
I admit I can't say I'm familiar with any traditions from my world, but I recall on another world I've visited there were doves released.
sender: Tifa
[And colour her surprised about this whole other world thing!]
You've been to another world too? Which one was this?

How inspiring they are. One day, she hopes she can be as open and as true with her heart as they have been.]
I had wondered when we might be receiving some correspondence. I am delighted to see this finally.
[Really, she is. She won't bother to offer any additional advice than what she's already given. If they need anything from her, they know they can just contact her directly.]
sender: Tifa
[Tifa had been too shy to do it sooner, and it was probably Eustace who nudged her to just do it after she spent weeks fretting about how she would do it and what she would say!]
You think you're almost ready for it?

Sender: Trahearne
[ Trahearne has been so caught up in his research that he didn't even know they hadn't made an official announcement yet. So this is nice! ]
Marriage is a very human affair where I come from. I have heard of sylvari who promise to stay together by emulating the ceremony, but without the bureaucracy and legality that comes with it.
Needless to say, this has been - and will be - a learning experience for me.
sender: Tifa
[Yes, she drew the winky face.]
How exactly do the sylvari celebrate it, if you don't mind me asking? Is it a lot like how we do or are there traditions that are unique to you?

Congratulations to you both. I'm pleased to see that such a strong love can occur here.
As for your question, I've never been married myself, but I don't believe our traditions are much different than yours. There's a ceremony and a reception after, with food and dancing as the main draws.
sender: Tifa
I've never been to a wedding myself, so I wouldn't even know how the traditions are different. Do they do anything special with the I do's?

You guys should share a paopu fruit together on the big day! There's probably a few fruits left on the tree before they drop for winter! It would be the best good luck charm you could have on a wedding!

I'm not certain of any particular wedding traditions that stand out from home. Dancing and flowers are critical, of course! But what matters most is that you're happy at the end of the day, so focus on doing whatever brings you the most joy.

Also help make sure there'll be enough food.

Make sure to let me know if you need help still, but I trust your judgement with picking out some memorable dishes.

Are the corgis gonna be groomsmen/bridesmaids?
Sender: Eustace
And...it seems like some will be yes. My wolf will be on my side, and the rest will be participating in their own ways. One of the corgis will be the ringbearer, for example.

You can count on my full support. I wish you all the best.
[ Not a man of many words, eh? But he's already promised to play at the wedding, and has mobilized the entire music studio to come as an ensemble. Suffices to say he takes this duty very seriously. ]
sender: Tifa
I'm putting together some sheet music for a song that we'd like you to play for us at the wedding, if that's alright? I think I've got it almost finished, but I'd love your opinion on it when it is!
