Dulcis Rosa Palace 'Aiko Mai and Vierdos Ergo's Wedding' (Invite)

[Charmin Rolans]

The Venue:


Charmin's Dress:


-

Charmin examined her handi-work. It had taken many hours with the use of both her wand and other people. A man held out a hand expectantly, and she let a bag of galleons drop into it, before she snarled at him menacingly. "Get out of my sight." And she smirked as they all did so rather quickly.

Now, the guests would be arriving soon. She had been in such good spirits since handing Aiko Vierdos' hand in marriage that she had allowed him to choose his own clothing. She merely warned him that if it did not look good, he would have to watch Jaqui suffer again and she would make it much worse this time. She turned and strode into the room where the bride would be, examining herself in the mirror. She smirked at her reflection.

"I always did look good in red."

[Jacqueline Girard]

This was the second wedding Jacqueline had attended within a year, and it had surprised her. However, she had found herself excitedly nervous for the last one, but this one was sure to be filled with heart-break and anguish. To see Vierdos be handed over to another woman... but she was strong, and she would not show Vierdos' mistress, Charmin, that she had found her weakness. She would be strong, and go, even though it went against Vierdos' wishes. She was not some weak witch, and she was ready to prove that.

Her eyes trailed over her blue dress - a favourite of hers - and she smiled, resting her hands on the ruffles. She laughed gently as she realised this was the second time she had worn blue to a wedding, but the thought of the wedding made her cease her laughter, and her smile fell almost instantaneously. She held two boxes in her hand, though the one with the purple ribbon was one that she had only bought in a way of being polite. She placed these both in her handbag, and with a sad look in her eyes she apparated to the wedding.

Admittedly, everything looked magnificent and she had no doubt that the only other person there as to her knowledge, Charmin, had done it all. She frowned at Charmin's choice of dress, and noted that it was a little short for a wedding. Charmin appeared to be smug with her decorations, and Jaqui hesitated as she held both of the gifts in her hands. She ducked her head as she waited to see Vierdos, and then his bride.

Jaqui's Dress:

[Guest]

Vierdos growled slightly as he got ready for the wedding that he did not want. He slipped into the white dress shirt and black trousers with ease then he eyed the black suit jacket and quickly shrugged into it he knew that he should not dwindle after he was finished getting dressed but he could not help but longer in the room for a little while.

Sighing a little he made his way over to the venue and over to his mistress' side trying to ignore the fact that Jacqui was in the room he wanted to go over to her and kiss her but knew that was not the right thing to do for she was not the one who he was going to marry.

Bowing respectably to his mistress even though he hated her so much she was still in charge of him and he had to go through with her every command no matter how much he hated it.

[Alonzo Ollivander]

Alonzo apparated straight over to the venue Charmin had left on the invitation. He hadn't known her for long but already she was inviting him over to weddings she was organising. Alonzo wasn't actually sure who was getting married, but he figured he would just go with the flow.

Entering the venue, he spotted Charm right away and strode over to her. She was looking lovely in a little red dress. "Hey there," he greeted. "You look beautiful." He leant forward and hugged her, kissing her on the cheek in greeting. Stepping back he noticed two very unhappy-seeming people; one was a well-dressed man standing next to Charmin, and the other a pretty woman in blue who looked as if she were about to cry.

"So who's the lucky couple?" he asked with a charming grin on his lips.

((OOC: Al's Suit:
))

[Charmin Rolans]

Charmin smirked as she saw Jacqueline arrive. She was most pleased with this, and was even more excited. She could only think of one better way to torture the mental health of this girl, and that was forcing her to watch Vierdos' truly be in love with another woman. She would have to use her full potential to keep her control over Vierdos', as she could already feel it slipping with the presence of Jaqui.

She looked up as Vierdos himself made his way over to her and bowed. She had not failed to notice the longing glance directed at Jacqueline, who did look rather beautiful this evening. Charmin looked at Jaqui once more and licked her lips, a more seductive form of torture entering her mind. Perhaps, she could have her own fun, but she shook that thought away. She did not care much for the girl, and would never become intimate with the enemy. She beamed at Vierdos and motioned towards Jaqui.

"I think she may have a present for you and your darling soon to be, how nice of her," Charmin drawled.

She went to command him to stay by her for now, when she saw Alonzo and she delighted. He made his way over to her and placed a kiss on her cheek. She kissed his back with a small smile, and it was not cruel. She liked Alonzo, he had that irresistible charm that his great, great, ever so many great's grandfather had.

"Him," she jerked her head at Vierdos. "And a lovely lady called Aiko." She finished, before she flicked her fingers in a very subtle movement and watched as Vierdos was forced to go stand at the altar awkwardly. There, she released him from her command though watched him out of her peripheral vision to ensure that he did not stray over to Jaqui's side.

"Im glad you came, otherwise i'd be bored here."

[Alonzo Ollivander]

Alonzo nodded at the man before he went to stand over at the alter. "He doesn't look too happy about it," he observed. But Al shrugged that off. He didn't really care much for the couple - he was happy for them and all, but he didn't know them so couldn't really judge.

He grinned. "You're welcome, Charm. I was getting bored sitting in my shop doing practically nothing as well, so I guess we're in the same boat." Alonzo really didn't mind hanging around Charmin at all. She was very attractive and had that impressive independent aura about her that made her seem like a very capable woman, something Al found really admirable.

"Did you do all this?" He asked, motioning about at all the enchanting decorations. "It's beautiful."

[Charmin Rolans]

Charmin pondered whether to tell him it was an arranged marriage, and she decided to do so. After all, it would provide for a good explanation as to why he wasn't so happy about it. She opened her mouth, but her mind quickly changed once more.

"He's just nervous, always gets like that when he's nervous." Charmin explained with a dismissive wave of her hand. She didn't want to talk about Vierdos.

Charmin smirked. She could imagine sitting around all day would get tiresome after a while, and she had never cared much for wandlore anyway. She had done her research, when it hit her that her ex-fiancée had a family business that he hadn't talked about much because he wasn't interested in it.

"Yup, I did." Charmin didn't care how proud her tone was, she was most proud of the end product.

[Alonzo Ollivander]

Alonzo smiled. "It's his wedding day, of course he's nervous," he said, failing to see the real reason behind Vierdos' frown.

"You sound extremely proud, but you have a right to be. This is amazing," Al praised again, staring about at the amazing decorations.

"So, who else is coming? I suppose you organised this whole thing then?" He wondered how many people he would meet here. It was a good opportunity to get to know some other people, especially since he hardly knew anyone at the moment - save for Charm.

[Briony Romain]

Briony wandered into the wedding hall, which looked rather nice, and she couldn't help but think that there are an awful lot of weddings recently, and she didn't even know the couple that were getting married yet she had been invited to the wedding.

A little unsure she looked around for someone she might know, and gave up, wandering over to two people who seemed to be getting on quite well and nodded to them as she came over.

"Hello, this is the wedding party correct? Thank you for your kind invitation." she said, her political head on.

[Raven 'The Sweeney' Drake]

Raven had decided that she would turn up for this wedding event, even though she had no idea what it was for, or even why people would feel the need to get married, but she was bored and decided that she would benefit from seeing new throats to slit before she slit them.

Wandering into the venue, Raven stopped stock still when she saw that Briony was there and she blinked, instinctively reaching for her razor and drawing it, the feel of it in her hands making her calmer, and less likely to kill the woman in front of her.

Wandering over to her Raven grinned:

"Well well well, if it isn't Mrs. Romain." she growled "Here's the wedding present."

She said with an oddly happy smile, for what better to show love than the gift of two hearts cut from a couple who had gotten married here only a few weeks ago.

"Happy wedding."

[Charmin Rolans]

Charmin smiled at Alonzo's, feeling a strange surge of guilt for lying to him. That was new, she thought to herself in interest. She hadn't felt guilty for a long time.

"It is to be expected, i'd be nervous if it was my wedding, not that any man would ever marry me." The last bit slipped out before she could stop it.

Charmin beamed at Al, glad that he approved of her work. Not that she needed his approval, she told herself.

"Yep, I organised it all. A bunch of Durmstrang professor's are coming, Aiko works there." Charmin said. She then noticed two newbies had arrived, and she looked at one whom she remembered inviting vaguely. She smiled at her and shook her hand, though the smile quickly turned into a scowl as 'The Sweeney' made her way over. She laughed at 'The Sweeney' in an almost pitiful way as she shook her head.

"Ah, the infamous Sweeney is not as smart as they say. This is not Briony's wedding."

[Guest]

Jonathan had received a invite to Aiko's wedding. He had only met Aiko a few times while he was over visiting Juliet. Walking into the venue it was rather set up very well, the host and hostess had done an excellent job. Jon was glad he had nothing like this in the works it would make him crazy.

The more Jon thought about it he didn't even have any prospects and for the most part he was not sure he was ok with that. He did get lonely sometimes, but he was doing his best. He just made a promise to himself that he would not have anything to drink ever again because that was bad news.

Walking into the wedding he saw many people that he didn't know but he did see the Headmistress of Hogwarts. He was surprised not to see Richard with her yet, but he was sure he was around somewhere.

Making his way to a seat he just sat down and waiting for the service to start.

[Aiko Mai]

Ai fiddled with the dress. Her hair was up and she was getting progressively nervous. This wasn't right. She scurried back to the room before chugging the whole bottle of gin. Her head was feeling lighter, the need for blood was lessened and her nerves were numbed. She sighed and looked at herself in the mirror.

The dress fit, the shawl fit in nicely with her gloved hands and er head was pulled elegantly back in a bun. Her face was barren, being a vampire did have it's perks of no need for pimples or zits (plus puberty had ended long ago for her), save for a small shiny appliance of pale pink lipstick. No one would walk her down the aisle, she realized her heart almost broken. She walk down alone. She looked out to the crowd; Charmin and Headmistress Romain were the two figures she recognized most and then she saw Jonathan. She gave a little wave a happy smile (so she hoped). Ai sighed again; this would be longer than she may've thought.

Now she just waited on the left side of where the arc began for the procession to begin and for a new life to as well.

[Deito Dozvettes]

Deito entered the Dulcis Rosa Palace and spotted Aiko immediately. He gave her a deadpanned look before sighing. Adrynn was staying back at Durmstrang with one of the house elves. He gently took the crook of her arm and made her take a step back.

"Stay." He was slightly disappointed that his invitation had been from the hostess rather than Aiko however, he was here all the same wasn't he? He approached the hostess.

"Ma'm the bride is ready, I'll be walking her down the aisle if you please." He murmured staring into the woman's eyes blankly.
