Day 19 - Time for a Wedding

Who: Lan WangJi, Wei WuXian and anyone else who wants to attend!
Where: Garden carriage and then gym car
When: Day 19 of Egret
What: Wedding! Wedding reception and lots of food.
Warnings: Pretty much up in the air. But there will likely a lot of PDA's from the wedding couple during the reception... because that's how they roll

Finally, it was Day 19, the day that WangJi and WuXian had chosen for their wedding.

Ceremony
Inside the garden, everything had been decorated in red and gold, traditional colors for a wedding in China. There were flowers and a low table set up.

As the ceremony begins, Lan WangJi and Wei WuXian enter with Lan Sizhui and Wen Qing as their attendants. The wedding clothes for WangJi and WuXian are also red, with designs of forest animals in the designs sewn in, including frogs and rabbits. All of this was courtesy of their friendly neighborhood spider. WuXian was also wearing a red veil over his hair and face. Even WangJi’s ever-present forehead ribbon was red today instead of white.

As the pair approached the table, WuXian on one side and WangJi on the other, they alternated bowing to each other three times before kneeling. With the help of their attendants, they each drank a cup of tea, which they used their long sleeves as though hiding that they were doing so behind them. Once they had put the cups down, WangJi reached up, pushing the veil back so that he could see WuXian’s face before removing the forehead ribbon he’d been wearing. Taking WuXian’s hand, he used to make kind of a loose knot between their two wrists, a Gusu Lan symbol that WuXian was his fated partner. Then as they carefully stood, WangJi leaned in to kiss WuXian before they both bowed to their attendants, thanks for assisting them and being there for them.

Reception
Following the wedding ceremony itself, the party then moved to the gym car, where the reception and feast were being held. Like the decorations for the wedding, it was also a lot of red and gold. To those who didn’t know beforehand, it would likely be obvious that red and gold here very important.

Lots of food cooked by wonderful volunteers from the train. Of course, there had to be dessert, which was the cake baked by the couple’s son, Lan Sizhui.

As the wedding couple, they were rather happily seated together of course. WangJi had since replaced the forehead ribbon on his head, but there was a high likelihood that sometime during the party WuXian was going to end up wearing it around his wrist.

There was only a smile on his face as he listened to their adorable daughter whining at the affection she was receiving from her Dad. There were more pictures taken of the two of them of course and he would show them both later as he always did.

"Well then I suppose it's time you went to one." Ignis said. He went to say something else when Tony piped up and he looked over at his mate. He had no idea what a four oh one kay was but the age thing made him smile.

"I can show you how to use more weapons in case suitors appear earlier than we'd like."

Oh god, now she's just flustered for a different reason altogether. Madoka also isn't too sure on what a 401k is - although with her it's just because she's too young - but she can kind of guess from context. And then Ignis starts about weapons?! Please, she doesn't want anyone to get hurt!

"W.. W-What! N-No, I mean-- I don't even have anyone I like..!" Her face is getting so red. Also, she's probably not even going to make it to 30.. "S-S-So it's not like I'm planning on dating..!"

Tony laughed and gave her another hug. "We're teasing you, sweetheart." He'd keep going with the trolling for other people but he didn't want to distress their daughter. "But that boy who bought you all that strawberry stuff was on my list." Fortunately, he was gone.

"Would you like some punch?" He asked her. "Why don't I get something for you and Papa was just telling me how much he wanted a dance with the prettiest girl here. Right Papa?" He asked, shooting Ignis a big grin.

Ignis turned away to hide his smile as Madoka got flustered but she was adorable with her face completely red. When it could be controlled, green eyes looked over at Tony who was soothing their little girl.

And leave it to the older man to come up with a scheme and Ignis nodded. Clever man. So he held out his hand to his daughter. "If they are to court you, then they're certainly going to need to learn how to dance with you properly. And in the meantime, would you honour me with a dance?"

She lets out a slightly whiny sound, even as she's definitely leaning into the hug she's getting from her dad. "Ganging up on me isn't fair.."

Not like Madoka really minds though. She just got embarrassed. A hug is more than enough to make up for it, and she does already seem a little less flustered by the time Tony pulls away.

"Of course I'll dance if you want to though, papa. You don't mind getting the punch, dad?" Clearly he wouldn't have offered if he minded, but Madoka is just polite and considerate enough to ask all the same.
