After Wedding Journal :>
15 years ago
(In B4 TLDR) So. Today was the day.
Noctome-wulf and
rika 's wedding day!
Let me just say that overall, the wedding and reception was an absolute blast.
In more detail:
I had fallen asleep at around 1:30 in Rika's art room while they wrere getting ready and woke up a couple of hours later, moving to the living room and curled up comfortably in my bed. Woke up a few hours later to look at the clock and go, "Fuck. It's like 6:55AM. Where is Noct and Rika? Oshi-" So I barge in their room, start shaking them awake and go, "We need to get moving, lovebirds!" So. We get up and get ready and off we go!
We drop Rika off for her to get pretty while Noctome and I proceed to the Gazebo on Sylvan Beach. It was trruly gorgeous that morning with a wonderful Sunrise. Met Noct's mom again and started to help decorate. We finished fairly quickly and everyone started arriving, Noct and I changed into our shirts and talked to people. By then, rain was starting to drizzle.
The ceremony was slated to begin around 10, but due to some difficulties getting the Bride pretty and here, it wasn't until 11:30 or so the ceremony began. I was wet, but we continued as planned. It wasn't exactly perfect, but it was to the point and the two were married in a very nice ceremony. I got to be the Groomsman which I was honored and happy to do. Many made comments how Noct and I were alike and over the course of the week, we had tricked many of each of the families by switching me in for Daniel (More on this later. Just a wedding journal here. :>)
After the ceremony, we went to Rika's Aunt's house for the reception. We had some trouble with parking (There was no space in front for the new Husband and Wife in front of the house so Rika wouldn't mess up her dress to much!) but we proceeded inside with introductions and such. We got in and immediately began the eatings.
DarkDragon23 was already there providing some amazing music, too. The food was great.
Balun_Roo made some amazing Pasta Salad and amazing dressing. I like saying amazing. The rest of the yummies were great and I got to sit with Rika, Noct and the rest of the wedding party at the table. Toasts were made, wedding pictures taken, lots of talking, lots of cool stuff all around. Dancing, of course.
DarkDragon23 composed and amazing piece for Rika and Noct and was beautiful. Truly, he does some beautiful music. I managed to snag a card and +watched him tonight. :>
I snapped tons of pictures over the course of the entire event. And I kinda don't remember who I all met, but I made sure to tell Rika and Noct to show me who was there tonight so I apologize if I don't remember who everyone was. Anywho. Both Rika's and Noctome's family were great and hilarious to be around, many reminding me of my own whacky, fun family. And yes, each family has their oddballs. ^^; But, for the majority, they were awesome.
Unfortunately, on the way home we blew a tire out so Noct and I got out, changed it and were on our way on a spare. Kinda sucked but I did my best to ease what little tension their was. I constantly told them, "No matter what. Nothing is going to ruin this special day."
All together... I loved this day. Very awesome. But... Thanks to
Rika and
Noctome-Wulf for including me in their ceremony as Groomsman. I was truly honored. This last week has been a blast and I thank you both for being awesome friends and having a great time even with rushing all around to do wedding stuff. I had a great time.
More on the rest of my trip later. We gotta get these tires fixed!
