wedding plans <(Isaac/open)>

[igloogirl]

((OOC: Well, not exactly. But she would see that Raychel was jittery, had strong muscles, and smelled like she had been outside. So Gabby would probably come to that conclusion. Of course, this would happen in less than a second, then her mind would move on to something else.))

Gabriella smiled as Isaac came in and kissed her on the cheek. "Hey," she said, leaning her head onto his shoulder slightly. From the way Isaac was acting, she assumed that he already knew Raychel, otherwise he would have addressed her. "Well, Raychel helped me pick out a wedding dress," Gabriella said, showing him the catalog. "And what do you think of having the wedding in the Hogwarts garden at night?"

[malfoy]

"Sounds good to me," said Isaac, relieved that Gabriella had at least made up her mind on something. He would write a letter to Cici in the morning, asking for permission, and inviting her to come, that was, if Gabriella wanted her to attend. "We can place an order for your dress tomorrow so we get it in enough time to tailor it if necessary," Isaac said.

[broadway]

Raychel smiled and rose to her feet. "Well, I can see you two have a lot to talk about." she replied. She nodded towards Isaac politely, since she was only on a name-basis with him, then turned to Gabby. "I am really glad I could help. If you need anything else, I'm here. 'Night, to the both of you." she said, turning to leave.

[igloogirl]

"Thanks a lot Raychel, I'll see you around!" Gabriella called after her, a smile still on her face. Raychel was quite nice and Gabriella had a good feeling about her, which didn't happen all that often. After Raychel had left, she turned back to Isaac. "That sounds great," she told him. "Now, we have to decide who we're going to invite," she said, sighing as she turned to page one.

[malfoy]

"Well, I suppose your side of the family would fill the place," Isaac said teasingly. Gabriella had too many cousins to count. Inviting... Hm. His mum and siblings of course, he wasn't sure how keen Bella would be on going, though. They didn't see eye-to-eye. "I'm guessing your family and mine. Luke of course, I was thinking of asking him to by my best man... How about Cici?" said Isaac.

[igloogirl]

"But of course," Gabriella replied. "Cici is like an aunt or something, she has to come. I'm pretty sure Angel will be my maid of honor, but I don't know about all the bridesmaids yet. It seems like such a tiresome task, weddings." Gabriella sighed slightly and flipped a few pages to write in the ideas for her maid of honor and Isaac's best man.

[malfoy]

"Yeah, it's work all right," Isaac agreed. "But it's just an event, we don't need to worry too much about it." Although Isaac didn't really care about the ceremony as much as the fact that he and Gabriella were going to be spending the rest of their lives together. But still, there were many details that needed to be worked out for that day.

[igloogirl]

Gabriella shot him a look. "But it's so important," she replied. "After August 7th, we'll be spending the rest of our lives together. It's a pretty big event, I'll say." Looking down, she wrote in Luke as Isaac's best man and Angel as her maid of honor.

[malfoy]

"That's not what I meant," Isaac said with a bit of a frown. "A wedding is just a wedding, our lives together are much more important than the ceremony." He could never really say what he meant. Isaac ran a hand through his hair. At this point, he wished that he had just asked Gabriella to move in with him instead, but knowing her, she probably would have refused. Isaac found Gabriella to be traditional in that sense. But Isaac loved her, and all he really wanted was for Gabriella to be happy...

[igloogirl]

"Well yes, but it's the day we'll remember for a long while," Gabriella said, avoiding using the term forever, as she didn't really know how long they would live and how long they would remember a wedding. It all seemed to weird to think about aging as a vampire. "But yes, our lives our much more important."

[malfoy]

Isaac didn't know how to reply, he tilted his head to the side for a moment, gazing into the fire, but not really seeing it. He looked back to Gabriella after a pause. "You know, the bridesmaids might look nice in silver or black, it would contrast the gold of your dress." Isaac suggested thoughtfully. Perhaps he would wear a gold tie, and then the rest of the guys could have silver or black ones...

[igloogirl]

"Yes, silver would be really pretty and wouldn't clash with any of my redheaded cousins," Gabriella said, impressed with Isaac's sudden idea. It was quite good. "And then the men can wear silver ties and you could wear a gold one," Gabriella added with a shrug, hoping it wasn't all too matching, she didn't want it to look like they were trying to hard to fit together. They just did.

[malfoy]

"Along the lines of what I was thinking," Isaac agreed with a nod. He didn't mind taking more of a backseat to this thing, letting Gabriella make more of the decisions. Girls were that way about weddings, even Safira was. But she was a planner. Perhaps Gabriella ought to talk with her, they could probably come up with that sort of thing better than he could. "What kind of food are you thinking?" asked Isaac. "Our guests aren't like us."

[igloogirl]

"Food!" Gabriella said, jumping up slightly. "Gosh, I knew I was forgetting something." With her lack of need for food, Gabriella had completely neglected to even think of having food at the reception. She hurriedly flipped to a new page in the notebook. "Well, I don't really know. Maybe we should ask someone?"

[malfoy]

"We could probably talk to Cici about it," Isaac suggested. "I'm sure the house elves would be more than willing to whip something up since they don't do any cooking over the summer." Yes, before becoming a vampire, Isaac had nicked food from the kitchens on many occasions. The house elves truly loved their work, and it seemed they couldn't wait to serve others, even if they weren't going to be seen doing so. "Emily might know something about making stuff we can eat," Isaac added, remembering how she had used to be a candy-maker at Honeyduke's.
