Hi guys,

As most of you are by now aware, Mai and Alby are getting married, the official Square-Enix sanctioned way ^^ Of course, this means there's a lot of Do's and Don't's involved, so I'm posting them here for reference.

Date: 3/6/08, 5:00 P.M. EST (2:00 P.M. PST)

Location: East Sarutabaruta. Guests gather and wait at East Sarutabaruta (H-12). The Wedding Master will move Alby and Mai to the actual wedding site (which I'm guessing is instanced) an hour prior to the ceremony; Kermadec (our chaperone) will be guiding everyone as to where to wait, etc. We can have up to 36 guests, but I highly doubt we'll have more than 10 or so ^^;;

Etiquette: THIS IS IMPORTANT! Square-Enix will eat our firstborn if you guys don't follow this!

--Don't be late! I suggest getting there early, as people will likely be RPing through it ^^
--Don't move around much, they don't like that.
--Don't do unnecessary things like fighting mobs, summoning NPCs (no, Sparky can't come to the wedding, sorry Tsiife), casting spells, synthing, being disruptive, etc. etc. The WM prefers it to be quiet and will keep the ceremony moving! The entire ceremony doesn't last long, it's only like 10 minutes long, so please be on your best behavior ^^
--NO talking in /shout, or excessive emoting or /say.
--Girls, don't wear any opaline! I know this is an odd rule, but apparently it's out of respect for the bride ^^;; Not even the little flower headpieces, sorry

Attire: FESTIVE!

--No weapons, either in main or in sub, so no shields! Ranged or ammo pieces are okay since they're not visible. Remember, it's a wedding, you wouldn't go armed to a wedding!
--Linkpearls are okay, and I'd recommend the NBs go IC on LS for the ceremony, we can put extra emotes and /say stuff there so that it doesn't disrupt the ceremony :)

Schedule:

--An hour before the ceremony, Mai, Kerm, and Alby will be pulled into the instanced area to meet with the WM and chitchat about how things will go. The WM will take our fees and give Mai her wedding set, and both of us our rings. We'll also get fun stuff for our guests to hand out!
--We'll be able to see /say chitchat while we're in the meeting, but we won't be able to see you guys ^^;; I'm counting on Seik to keep everyone in the meeting area and hopefully ready to head into the instance when the WM gives the word.
--Kerm will help everyone to their seats, and once everyone is seated (I'm guessing in neat rows, SE likes this stuff remember!), there will be a wedding procession, and everyone be sure to watch our blushing bride approach the altar ^^
--At the end of the ceremony, we get to kiss ;P Then our guests can let all hell loose and the partay begins D: It seems to be traditional to pop your 2-hour and all JAs at this time (don't ask me, but I've seen it multiple times XD).

I know Mai and I are both really looking forward to this ^^ So let's show our best behavior and have a real roleplay wedding worthy of the Nightblades ^^
