Wedding Guests!! Weeee!
Carys was glad to finally put those dance lessons her mother had forced her to take to some good use. Her dress twirled quite nicely with the waltz she and Drake opened up the dance floor with, and Carys found herself quite impressed with her husband. Her husband. Ha! That was something Carys never thought she'd think, or say, or have. She'd been very content in just living life day to day, but the idea of having someone to be there along the hopefully long way was awfully nice. And Drake was awfully nice to look at too, so that helped a lot.

Of course she hadn't agreed to marry him (because he'd asked her! She'd never let him live that down) just because he was handsome, even if she was sure to rub that into her sisters' faces at every chance. There were other factors that led her to accept, but those thoughts and words were for quiet times when she was feeling overly emotional and not for the dance floor.

The song gracefully slid into a slower tune and this time more couples joined the newlyweds (holy hell!) on the dance floor. Carys smiled at their guests, glad that they'd been able to make it and even happier that they all looked to be having a good time. Her head tilted up to smirk at Drake, ready to make some hilarious comment about Martin and the fire dancers, but Carys found herself at a loss for words as the secret she'd been keeping since right before she put on her dress came back to the forefront of her mind.

Instead she just smiled and dropped her head to his chest, not wanting to ruin the night.

Tristan

Who could really deny a surprise mini holiday to Hawaii? Psyke had been, of course, but it was the first tropical, exotic visit she'd made with Tristan, and was loving every second of it. Psyke loved the idea of a spur of the moment trip, and the fact that it was a secret wedding for two high profile quidditch players? Even better! She was always one for the dramatics, and this was definitely the way to go.

Psyke pulled her head back away from Tristan's as they danced in a slow circle, even if the music was a little more upbeat. Her fiance had been amazingly good at her lack of wedding planning, for they haven't even set a date. Psyke didn't want to rush the good time they were in, and as much as she wanted Tristan to be her husband, it was still scary to think about how a marriage could change everything. They were so happy right now, why risk turning everything upside down like it had happened to her once before?

"I believe we should schedule impromptu portkeys to various places in the world more often," Psyke said with a sagely nod.

Tristan had been glad to see that he was still able to surprise her, even if Carys had to take most of the credit for this particular event. He smiled, looking over to Psyke once they'd separated enough to be able to see each other's faces properly.

"I think we should. I think Carys had the right idea making this away from the public eye, all things considered." He wondered if Psyke would want to do the same -- his own fame and her own last wedding taken into account. He wouldn't mind it, since the idea of media being there to ruin a day that special wasn't altogether appealing.

"Perhaps somewhere more exotic after this. Africa? I hear safaris are all the rage -- or was I misinformed?" He leaned in to kiss her briefly and then glanced to Carys and her now-husband. At least they looked happy, whatever skepticism he had toward Drake.

"I don't know how keen I am about traipsing through the savanna in my six-inch heels," because obviously, she was not going to give up her pumps for a trip like that. As much as Psyke had grown to being used to getting dirty and messy because of her daughter, there were just some things the former model would not give up. She smiled prettily at Tristan though, letting her fingers dance on the back of his neck.

Random portkey trips were definitely doable, however. It would teach Lavender so much about the world, and it would give them time together and time to escape from everything. Just to be them. Psyke was happiest when she and Tristan were alone, away from the public eye and able to just lie on her couch or his, she thrived for that kind of quiet interaction these days. Trips around the world where they could just stay in a hotel for a day or two, or even just a night would be marvelous in so many ways.

"I suppose if we can stay out of the dirt," she amended, not wanting to dash Africa off the burgeoning list, "What about the Caribbean?" She'd only been to St. Lucia, and that was for a photo shoot.

"Who said anything about traipsing? I'd be carrying you the whole way, naturally. Or we could just do some sort of broom-tour." That sort of thing had to exist, right? He was sure he could arrange it somehow. That wouldn't be very inconspicuous, though. He chuckled, bringing a hand up to brush a spare bit of hair behind her ear.

"The Caribbean could be nice. It's warm there all year 'round, isn't it? The winter would be a good time to get on with things, since it'd be a low point in the season and your work seems to slow down a tad then too..." He really did want to make sure that things were perfect for Psyke, that she got exactly what she wanted out of their wedding -- they had to do it right, absolutely so. "Planning for next year would be easiest..." He trailed off. He knew they weren't in a rush -- but if she wanted to get married in January or February, he wouldn't tell her no. At the same time, Tristan didn't want her to feel trapped.

Savannah felt like an absolute idiot when she found herself getting misty eyed during the quaint ceremony, smiling as she watched the two exchange their vows and be pronounced as husband and wife. She was positively honored to be part of the small, private wedding, and hugged her best friend tight once she was officially ‘Mrs.Drake Parkin’, only letting go to give her husband a hug of his own – that, and a warning that he better take care of her, or she’d make sure that the next article about him that got published in Witch Weekly would make mention of some sort of mysterious rash seen in the locker room.

She didn’t even realize that the last wedding she had been to had been her own, but that didn’t exactly count. It hadn’t been a ceremony – she hadn’t had any friends or family there as witnesses. Looking back at everything, she realized what a big clusterfuck the entire thing had been, from beginning to end, wondering how on earth she didn’t see the end of their marriage coming.

If you had told her a year or two ago that being divorced was the best thing that could have happened to her, Savannah would have probably smacked you. Now though, as she sat at a table beside Geoff Brand, she found herself smiling to herself as she thought about how stupid she had been for so long, dwelling on the past instead of moving on so she could be happy – which she was.

She was happy. Ever since she had started dating him, she found herself smiling for no reason at all. Just the thought of seeing him later on in the day made her lips turn upwards, and then when she was actually around him, it was just…it was good. It was more than good, really.

Her fingers were idly playing with the necklace around her neck as she looked over at him, watching his profile as he had a conversation with someone else. She noted the way his eyes crinkled at the sides when he laughed, and how his hands moved when he talked. Eventually whoever it was he was talking to walked away, and she would lean forward towards him, she cupped her chin in her hand as she propped an elbow on the table.

“Making friends, are we?”

"Well, you know us Brands -- we've got to make sure that our reputation is secure." He glanced over his shoulder toward Maggie at that comment, hoping that she'd forgiven him for -- well, she'd misinterpreted it as him telling her that she wasn't allowed to feel sexy after her pregnancy. He just hadn't wanted the media to put words in her mouth or make her look bad. He knew how much -- well, gasoline was soaking some of the bridges of her life, and all it would take was one hot-tempered comment from someone to light it on fire. Particularly, he was worried about what would happen if someone found out about who Josef's father really was.

He laughed, hoping to cover up any worry that might've been creasing his features. He didn't need to bring down the mood of the wedding with his fuddy-duddy inclinations. He slipped his arm around her waist. "You're enjoying yourself, I hope? I feel like this place calls for some tropical drinks, even if I'm not the type to indulge too much. Do you think it makes me less manly if I want something with a tiny umbrella?"

Savannah’s eyes followed his over his shoulder to look over at Maggie, only giving a light sigh as she recalled all the drama that had gone on before the wedding between the siblings. Her eyes were still on his sister when he turned back to her, though she smiled up at him immediately when his arm was around him. She had been spending enough time with Geoff to recognize when a laugh was forced, but she knew he was just trying not to put a damper on things. She appreciated it, but she turned to wrap her own arm around his back, pulling herself closer against him.

Her laugh was very much a genuine one as he asked his second question about tiny umbrellas. “Well, that all depends…were you going to drink it with your pinky up?” She shot a playful grin up at him before she turned to look out at everyone else who was around them. Eventually she turned a little more into him, so that she was hugging his side.

“And yes, I’m enjoying myself…very much so, actually.” She turned her eyes up to look at him. “It was a beautiful ceremony, wasn’t it?”

"I don't think I'd drink it with my pinky up on purpose, but I'm sure that someone would manage to get a picture of it if I did happen to pop it up in the middle of a hand gesture or something like that." He didn't think he'd mind so much, really, if that was the worst publicity that he got.

Considering some of his past indiscretions, particularly with gambling (he'd been so good lately, but the itch was starting to come back) he couldn't afford to take any risks.

He nodded, letting his arms drape loosely around Savannah's waist. "It was, really."

Mira

Seth smiled as he twirled Mira during the reception. Seth didn't even have time to be angry that he didn't even find out that Drake was getting married an hour before he was suppose to catch the portkey.

Lucky for him, Henry loved Leanne more than him most days, so he was glad to take her for a couple days on such short notice. That and it probably helped that he threw in that it would look bad if he didn't go after being invited, last minute invite but invite all the same.

Then he was off to practically kidnapped Mira, as they didn't have time to pack, or explain really. And Seth wasn't even sure if his invite extended to a plus one, but he sure as hell wasn't going to Hawaii without his girlfriend.

And now with the wedding over, and the reception in full swing, every one dancing and having a good time, Seth felt it was a good time to sneak out. "Hey," he said quietly twirling Mira back into his arms, and swaying to the music. "What do you say we sneak out of here and go take a walk on the beach? I'm pretty sure we won't be missed."

Seeing as she knew practically no one here, Mira had no problem ditching. Not to say that this wedding hadn't been beautiful and wonderful, because it had. She just felt no guilt leaving said planned fun for other fun to be had. The bride and groom wouldn't mind--- they had mentioned hiring the entire facility for the wedding and their guests. It would simply go to waste if they only stayed here.

Plus, Mira had never been to the States before, so she was excited to explore. And spend time with Seth. Here. In this state she had never thought twice about before. There was a lot to do!

Alright, she just really wanted to have sex on the beach. She'd never been able to do it before and--- the sand seemed very soft here.

It was really just one of those things she had always wanted to do.

"Yesss," Mira hummed, closing her eyes for a moment as she spoke. This was actually wonderful. She blinked her eyes slowly, looking up to Seth with a lazy smile. "I would love to," she said, her grip on him tightening slightly. She would be able to convince him to do it, she was fairly certain.

	It really wouldn't take much convincing at all, as Seth pretty much had the plans. He scooped her up in his arms the second she agreed. "Well then, the beach awaits." he said kissing her, carrying her effortlessly out the door. He didn't put her down until they reached the sand. "So what do you say, we quit our job and run away and live here forever." (Reply to this)(Parent)
