OOC: THE WEDDING THREAD. It's now December, and you know what that means right? Cal and Nina's wedding! So here it is. Considering recent events, the wedding was decided to take place a few miles away from Pack Manor itself, so that their friends could attend. It was on the edge of the woods near the lake, so that the guests could breathe in the fresh moutain air and enjoy the snow on the ground. There was a huge canopy that chairs were seated under so that if it did snow, the guests wouldn't be tarnished. A walkway led up to a small little bridge where the couple would take their vows. Everything was decked out for the perfect winter wonderland, from Nienna's dress to the party decorations. Nina stood in her dressing room/tent and looked at herself in the mirror, spinning around once to watch the dress cascade out. She had to be the absolutely happiest person you had ever seen right now. Natalia was dressing baby Selena in a little dress so that she could hold her and walk down the isle with her, making her the ring bearer. Nienna had asked Isla to be the flowergirl, and she chose several friends to be bridesmaids. You didn't have to JUST pick three, you know. "I can't believe I'm getting butterflies" she marveled, holding her stomach because it felt like she'd just been on a rollercoaster. Natalia laughed, bouncing Taylor on her knee while she slipped the dress on Selena. "It means you're happy Nina. Today is your day."

(OOC: Nice pictures! I'm thinking everyone except Cal & other family members are going to be jealous ) Having received an invitation earlier, Henry had puzzled out the way to the location. Unsure of what to get for a wedding present, Henry had decided on a "simple" gift. In preparation for travel to the location, Henry had stashed his cloak and staff in his home, but left the obsidian & leather armor on. Teleporting to a nearby place with gifts in hand, Henry started walking towards the lake. Henry crunched through the layer of snow on the ground, and left watery bootprints behind him. Even though he was attuned to fire more than other elements, he still didn't naturally get warm - instead, he had a small heat spell continuously activated. The small amount of magic being used set his eyes to glowing red, but only slightly. Finally arriving at the clearing, Henry looked around, looking for the drop-off location for the gifts/presents to the soon-to-be newlyweds.

Callum stood in door way of the Rose cottage, getting ready for the wedding. And, despite it all, he was nervous. Not because he had doubts, because he didn't- It was just a large step to be taking. Butterflies were a good sign, right? His best men would be meeting him here: Brad, Perrin and Dare. He wanted to ask Ben, had thought about it hard but he knew it wasn't going to be worth it at this point. Sighing, he looked up at the sky and smiled softly to himself. Tonight he'd have a wife, two cubs and the life he always wanted. *** Isla bounded around excitedly. Auntie Nina had asked her to be a flower girl. She didn't exactly know what that meant but it was exciting. She didn't really like dresses but everyone made such a fuss over the ||one she had to wear with the ||stole. Her curly hair was tied back in a braid with blue and white flowers tucked into it. Waiting as long as she could, trying to be a good patient girl, she finally gave up and let herself into the room. "Hiya, Aunt Nina!" She hugged her tightly. "Today's our big day!"

Ooc: Haha thanks
"I can't help but think I'm doing things backwards" she smiled at Nat through the mirror reflection, casting her eyes on her sweet little girl who could already sit up and move around. Selena looked like a mini-version of Isla if you asked her, with just the right touch of Jonsan and Brackner. Selena was sucking on a teething ring contently as Taylor ran around in the room in circles. He was two and a half now and full of energy. "Taylor, go find uncle Callum! He's in the other tent...hurry!" Natalia gently pushed her son who squealed and ran out of the tent, looking for the curly blonde. When he found him he latched onto his leg, laughing.
Nina turned around and bent down so she could hug Isla, squeezing her tightly like she never wanted to let go. But she did, and holding her back admired her pretty dress. "Well aren't you gorgeous! I think we all know who the real bell of the day is today" she winked, standing up she looked down at the ring on her finger and took a big breath. She loved Cal, and this was a good thing. It was just....a realllly big change.

Henry noticed a young boy burst out of one of the tents. Walking towards the boy, Henry called out, "Hello there! Do you know where the presents for the bride and groom go?" I guess I didn't call loud enough, or he was just too focused on something else... thought Henry, as he watched the boy (still a fair distance away) duck into a different tent.
Should I use my sight - no, I'll try to curtail my spells for the ceremony. Looking around once more, he spotted a large white table. Is that where the gifts are to be dropped off? Heading towards the table with wrapped box in hands, Henry kept glancing around every few steps to see if more people were coming.
(OOC: Where's everyone else?!)

Kat soothed out the crinkles in her dress, a simple reflex as she looked for Isla. She’d lost track of that girl Pretty much as soon as they had got out of the front door. She felt… a little awkward perhaps being a bridesmaid, but she had felt honoured when Nina had asked her, so now here she was. Ducking through a tent flap, she peered around, and went back out, trying the next one along instead.
Stepping through, she heard Is’s voice before she really saw anything, pushing hair out of her eyes. She stopped though, when she saw nina, isla’s arms wrapped around the other woman’s waist. For a woman with a new born baby, she looked amazing. “Oh Nina… You look gorgeous!” She grinned. "Cal won't know what hit him."

Ben put a hand on Cals shoulder. He knew he wouldnt be going to the wedding and Ben didnt mind he lived contently with the conciquence of his actions. But he put a hand silently on his brothers shoulder as they stood outside the house they grew up in. "Arnt you suppose to be there by now?" He teased a little, and drew up in front of Cal to straighten his lappels. "Have a good one little brother." Ben smiled, and turned his nose skyward.
"Im not wearing a stupid dress." Cissy came barging in. Waving the dress at her aunt. "Do you not know who I am?"

Cal smiled at Ben and took a step forwards. That's when Taylor smacked into his leg. Chuckling, he scooped up the child and wandered back, looking for his best men.
