Stackhouse Residence - Bon Temps, Louisiana [Saturday evening, Fandom time]

[justwantsquiet]

When guests arrived at Sookie's girlhood home -- now her brother's house, though she'd descended upon it over the last week in a fit of Pinterest-driven decorating -- they would find all the makings for a simple country wedding. The big tree out back, where she and Jason had climbed as children, and under which Bobby had built her a snowman several

Arrive! [8/3]

[justwantsquiet]

Show off anything fancy you might be wearing, complain about the fact that once again you are somehow in Sookie's hometown in THE MIDDLE OF SUMMER, WHAT THE HELL, look for Bill in the bushes, etc.

Of course Kate was here. And looking excited about it, too. (And pretty, in her dress, but that was less important in the grand scheme of things.)

And okay, maybe she was a little weirded out to be at her high school roomie's wedding already. But not a lot. Since she got teased about being practically married to Bod all the time anyway.

Jack greeted her with mildly surprised raised eyebrows -- he'd almost forgotten Bobby had been her roommate.

"Hello there," he said. "They made everything look lovely, didn't they?"

Re: Arrive! [8/3]

[vanillajello]

Two years of occasionally having to get extra blankets because Bobby's powers were acting up. They'd been the best roomies.

Kate grinned at him. "Hi! They totally did. Reminds me a bit of Aunt Charmaine's first wedding, except even prettier." A beat. "And hopefully more successful."

Pre-ceremony [8/3]

[justwantsquiet]

For any jitters anyone might have, or conversations between bridesmaids and groomspeople and such getting ready!

Re: Pre-ceremony [8/3]

Sookie adjusted her hair a final time in the mirror in her bedroom, wondering if it wasn't a bit too much with her dress.

"Are we sure I don't look too...fairy princess?"

Yes, she heard it, too.

"You look fabulous, almost as good as me," Emma teased as she worked her own hair up into a tidy french twist. "And that's saying something."

Vanity, thy name is Frost.

"Well, you've given me something to aspire towards," Sookie decided, playing with one of her flowers. She wasn't nervous -- this was one of those things where the certainty of it had long settled as deep as her bones, and she hadn't looked back once.

However, it was one thing to say that, and to believe it with her whole heart, and it was another thing entirely to actually be here in that white dress she'd picked out in the spring. "Jesus, Mary and Joseph, I'm actually getting married. Married. I'm not going to be a Stackhouse anymore, Emma. How weird is that?"

Ceremony! [8/3]

[justwantsquiet]

The actual event whoo!

Processional - Kennedy and Emma!

[justwantsquiet]

I want this to be a sitcom. Or a reality show. KENNEDY AND EMMA: WACKY WEDDING PARTY DUO.

Re: Processional - Kennedy and Emma!

[icecoldfrost]

Emma and Kennedy were an amazing wedding party duo, thank you, although Emma was almost disappointed that Kennedy wasn't rocking a bespoke suit. Emma rather needed to go suit shopping for fall semester, and Kennedy had impeccable taste.

"Shall we?" she asked, offering Kennedy her arm.

Re: Processional - Kennedy and Emma!

[brat_inslayage]

She did have impeccable taste, thank you very much, but she also liked to remind people every now and then that she could look good in a dress. Weirding them out was just a bonus.

"Let's do this thing," Kennedy told Emma, and executed a fairly elaborate curtsy. See, all those cotillion classes hadn't gone entirely to waste, even if Dad was still a little bit mad about the time she blew off the International Debutante Ball to try and sneak into a lesbian bar in the Bronx. "God, can you believe this is actually happening? They're, like, all grown up now, aww."

Reception! [8/3]

[justwantsquiet]

Let's all get drunk!

Reception - Tables!

[justwantsquiet]

Where you can get drunk and be social! There is an open bar which is totally moddable, and an enormous variety of equally moddable hors d'oeuvres.

Re: Reception - Tables!

[bitten_notshy]

An open bar. Not that Sookie and Bobby weren't lovely, but the free drinsk were the best part of a wedding you were mainly attending as the bridesmaid's boyfriend, as far as Jack was concerned.

He got a scotch-and-soda and sat down at a table, watching to see how crazy things might get.

Re: Reception - Tables!

[icecoldfrost]

A bridesmaid who had found the scotch as well, and was going to help herself to a spot in her boyfriend's lap. "Aren't we all pretty?" she informed asked him. "And there haven't been any invasions or vampire fights yet!"

OOC [8/3]

[justwantsquiet]

And I'm going to be out for most of Saturday, which is why this is going up the night before! If you think you got an invite, you totally did. (Wedding crashers are also likely to be treated with a light hand, for that matter.) If you need anything, ping me down here or shoot me an email at justthreeapples(at)gmail(dot)com!

Re: OOC [8/3]

[brat_inslayage]

This seems like an appropriate place to put a gif of Stephen Moyer giving TB a little shoutout in the middle of "Razzle Dazzle" while playing Billy Flynn in Chicago last week.

Re: OOC [8/3]

[justwantsquiet]

Oh my god I love you forever for bringing that into my life.

Re: OOC [8/3]

[brat_inslayage]

I BASICALLY MADE IT JUST FOR THIS.

(Appropriately, that was on "They'll let you get away with murder.")
