[The feed starts with Elizabeth still trying to figure out how to get both Gai and her in the frame. She shifts to her right and laughs when it doesn't really help.]

Oh, this is why I never use this function! You don't have to dance around like this to record sound.

Don't worry, that's still a problem with cameras in my era. Even having a zoom button doesn't help that much.

A--? [She sighs and shakes her head. He'll explain what a zoom button is after they're done.] Nevermind, it's recording and I'm not getting to the point.

Good morning Luceti! Ah, six months back, Gai knelt down in the snow and asked me to marry him. And I said yes, just so he would get out of the snow, obviously. [Elizabeth giggles and shoulders Gai a little.]

[Gai smirks, tossing his hair.] The things I'm willing to endure for the sake of love. Truly a great sacrifice.

You do suffer so. [She gives the camera a look.] But we're finally having a ceremony to go with the great sacrifice his pants endured. On July 30th. And even though our ceremony is going to be small-- [Elizabeth looks back at Gai and nods, clearly this was something they talked about] --we'd like to welcome everyone to the reception, on the beach, after sunset.

[He nods in return.] But if you're just showing up for the alcohol, you're going to be disappointed.

[Elizabeth frowns slightly.] Are we not having alcohol?

Not in unlimited quantities. [Booker, the Luteces, and unlimited alcohol. This is not something he wants to see.]

Oh... yes, very true. [Truth be told, she isn't sure she wants to see everyone completely smashed and littered all over the beach.] Guess that means come early or stay sober. [She grins.]

[Gai lets out a soft laugh and slips his arm around her, letting himself be a little more openly affectionate than he usually is. It's a wedding announcement, he is totally allowed, okay.]

[Yes, he is completely allowed, and Elizabeth rather enjoys the mild public display of affection. She smiles warmly up at him, then realizes a few awkward seconds in that the network is essentially watching them cuddle. The entire Luceti network. Which includes Booker. That has her reaching for the button to end the feed.]

[Action]

[And of course, now that Elizabeth has been bitten by the proverbial marriage bug, she's running around town trying to make decisions surrounding the reception. Food-wise, decor-wise, she's just going to load herself up and bring things back to Gai to see what he thinks. She's stopping at the grocery store, at Good Spirits to get advice on alcohol, and finally she starts sifting through what's in the Item Shop to see if there's anything she's looking for-- mainly, little electric lights.]

[She thinks she sees a plug behind a large bag, and she pulls it out of the way with some effort. Behind the large bag is a bag of golf clubs.]

[Elizabeth tenses as disjointed, meaningless images superimpose themselves across her vision. She feels her shoulder hit a nearby cabinet as she sways on her feet. Once it's over, she's left panting as though she's sprinted a hundred yards. What in the world...?]

I'm not sure how Law would take to being asked to play babysitter on top of officiating the ceremony.

[Law is officiating? Good choice there.]

Technically he only has to play babysitter if someone falls into the water and they can't get back up.

[Having a pirate captain for a best friend definitely comes in handy sometimes.]

I'd say that's putting too much confidence in people when you combine alcohol and the ocean.

Just ask him. Worst thing is he says no and you can ask him for suggestions on who else can be lifeguard.

Or we just hand out a pair of floaties to everyone who shows up for the reception. Might as well head things off at the pass.

There we go. Formal attire with brightly colored floaties, perfect. A picture for the wedding album.

We can go a step further and make sure they match the drinks.

You joke, but I can do that.

Though while we're talking about drinks again, any other requests? I have a custom cocktail in works for Elizabeth, anything for you?

... yeah. Think you could make something that's red and black?

[Hardly the most cheerful or wedding-esque colors, but he feels it's only fair to give some sort of little nod to Funeral Parlor, even if none of them are around to see it.]

I might have to cheat with a dark purple in place of black, but I'll see what I can do. Any specifics on the kind of flavor or the alcohol in it?

Surprise me. I'd like to have at least one thing at the wedding that isn't planned out to the last decimal.

Sounds good to me. I'll get a drink menu ready a week before the wedding? We can arrange a tasting as well if you two want. I'm also pretty easy to find at HQ most nights.

Sounds like a plan. Better than letting me try to mix the drinks, anyway. We'd have the entire reception on the floor in under half an hour.

Hey, if you want to end the party real fast so you two can head off to your honeymoon, I'll be happy to let you take over.

When you put it that way...

[Ahh, young love and eager newlyweds.]

By the way, I'm Ginia. Figured I should formally introduce myself at some point if I bartending for the party.
