[ Crowley looks very Cool. Very Chill. Very Casual. Not at all bothered, or excited, just very easygoing. Totally normal, nothing big or life changing here. ]

So. Weddings. You lot do them, have done for - a long time. Have lots of different traditions.

Tell me about them. What d'you like to do for them? Nothing that involves a church, or other consecrated places, but otherwise, I'm open to ideas.

We've already got the "party" and "cake" bits down.

[ See? A totally normal and non-sentimental, non-romantic request. ]

Some people throw rice.

[goodtobebad]

Throw rice? What for?

We did the courthouse. Signed papers. That's it.

[goodtobebad]

Aziraphale would never forgive me if we didn't have a party and a cake.

Pro tip: skip the actual wedding and just elope, especially if a church isn't an important detail. You can do the whole party thing afterward. Planning a wedding is a bitch.

permavoice

[goodtobebad]

Oh no, we can't elope. Aziraphale definitely wants a party. In fact, that's really all he wants. A party, with cake, where we get married.

You don't need a church. Just a justice of the peace, or someone who's got the authority to officiate.

[ Once she heard gay marriage was legal in this time, Carol may have... done a bit of reading up on the subject of weddings.

No reason. ]

video;

[goodtobebad]

Oh, we probably don't need anyone with legal authority. The party, with the cake, and being married is all he wants.

There's only one thing you absolutely can't fuck up, and that's the wine.

permatext

[goodtobebad]

wine is a given

what about flowers? dont you do flowers?

[solarcharged]

[ Aw. Apollo's grinning ruefully as he answers: ]

My tip is it's all about the people, not the things. As long as you've got all the people you love most there then... you can't really go wrong.

[goodtobebad]

Oh sure, we'll invite whoever he wants.

Still, though, what sort of cake do you usually have?

[This is... yes, another thing to be used to, because the idea of 'gay marriage rights' isn't something even being conceived of in the time she lives in. At least, not in the circles that Jane moves in.

But... why shouldn't they be able to be happy in that way? Jane is smiling when she replies to him.]

Why don't you do the ceremony outdoors?

[goodtobebad]

[ Jane! Oh good, someone actually trying to be helpful! ]

Outside could be good. We like parks. Walk in St James's all the time back home.

[detectivedwloki]

You have some problem with churches?

[goodtobebad]

Consecrated ground doesn't agree with me.

Can't give you any wedding traditions from my people, as we don't do the whole marriage thing. I've been to a few since I've been here, though. I assume you're not interested in any of the gendered traditions?

[He's also been around long enough to pick up on modern gender politics, and with them also being immortal beings... none of that may even apply to them. At least, he hadn't been able to pick up anything distinctly one sex or the other last he'd encountered Crowley.]

[goodtobebad]

Neither of us has a gender, but we'll do whatever we feel like doing, even if it's theoretically supposed to be for one gender or another.

[AN ACTUAL GASP.]

Crowley! You and Aziraphale are getting married?! That's so exciting!

voice

[goodtobebad]

[ Crowley, meanwhile, just clears his throat a bit to keep any emotion out of it. He's cool, totally not madly in love and excited to be planning a party to celebrate it. ]

Guess so. It was his idea, of course.

video

[viciousmaukery]

[cheerfully, lying straight through his teeth:] My parents got secretly married on a beach in the light of the full moon after escaping from a death cult. Definitely get married under a full moon.

video

[goodtobebad]

Sounds exciting. I'll take the full moon into consideration.

[ Exchanging vows by moonlight is just the sort of romantic nonsense Aziraphale enjoys. ]

voice.

[solarcharge]

[ No one does this anymore, there are no more of her people, but, ]

We exchanged bracelets of a special colour — unique to that couple.

voice.

[goodtobebad]

Bracelets. How novel. How d'you pick the colour? What's the significance?

[melodramagic]

Right after an apocalypse?

[ Not that Sabrina isn't excited for them! But... timing.

Or maybe timing doesn't matter when this world is plunged into chaos often. ]

[goodtobebad]

[ Crowley raises a curious eyebrow. ]

The... apocalypse that was just averted? And now everyone is throwing parties about it?

[numberthree]

[ Sure, her marraige is over now. But the beginning hadn't been bad at all. It's been enough months she'd scrolled past this and then came back to it a few days later, because it was still relatively near the top of the network. Finally deciding to say something. ]

Mine went pretty well, even if it was rather big.
The publicity part of it bigger than the private smaller part for our own friends and family.

I didn't care much about the whole church aspect of it either.
Those buildings can be pretty, but I wasn't ever religious.

And obviously, you've got your own reasons to avoid one.

i have an allergy

itll be big or small

As someone getting married next month? Throw money at a planner. Pick out some clothes and food you like. And just show up to the event with everything else done, cuz of the money-throwing.

[goodtobebad]

Really? Isn't that a little... impersonal?

[pillz]

usually it a good time to have a party for each partner. i mean bachelor/ette shit yeah but like.

each person got their friends. then you have the bachelor/ette shit before, parties and all. then on the wedding day, where my parents came from, there was games. i think a lot of cultures do games. can be a little bit sexist, but i'm sure it can be evened out.
