Tradition Fulfilled

We lit up the candles, all eleven of them, and this is the first milestone in our Elders Day. Now Mom is calling Gram, aunt Miranda and Nolan, asking them if they will be on time for our second milestone: family lunch.

Wedding Day!

The Photoshoot

The most important part of a wedding is, of course, taking a lot of cute couple pictures. Nothing else. And I must say, the location we chose has a beautiful garden. It’s almost like someone made it specifically to look stunning for a wedding.

So by sunset, a few minutes before the ceremony, we pose together. It’s hard to keep solemn picture faces, because we’re giddy.

The Vows

This is when we vow to love, protect, and support each other forever.

We both already trusted each other to do so. My heart still implodes a little.

We exchange the rings and become, before our closest friends and family, husband and wife.

The Reception

This is when we eat.

And also when the close friends and family do their best to embarrass the bride and groom with anecdotes.

Thay’s right, Marie, you laugh. You know I’ll get back at you.

We cut and murder the wedding cakes (plural), then I surprise Hugo, who wasn’t expecting me to do a whole speech about how much he and his love meant to me.

That’s right baby, you married a romantic sim.

Photoshoot

This is what happens when your best friend is in the world of fashion and wants to practice her photoshoot skills.

I mean I’m not complaining — the photos turned out stunning. And I got to spend the whole day with Charlotte, who was the one who had to take the train from the Fashion District with all her shoot equipment.

Charlotte’s always had an insane drive. I’m excited to watch her as she ascends to the fashion mogul spot she deserves. And if I can help even just by sitting directly on the pavements of the Spice Market, at the risk of staining my favorite pair of jeans, so be it!
