the marriage of true minds

WHO: Newton Geiszler, Hermann Gottlieb, AND YOU
WHERE: Alaska, courtesy of teleportation via Midnighter's apartment
WHEN: March 27th, evening
WHAT: A wedding. After all that's been happening this month, let's enjoy a nice evening of two constantly bickering nerds finally making good on the day they first met. It's not red, white, or purple... Safe for the whole family.
WARNINGS: Um. Nerds being Nerds.

NOTES: There are subthreads for the major events, but feel free to make your own or ping either youko/Hermann or me/Newt if you want something not listed.


Ceremony:

No matter what effort anyone--Kang, Newt himself, or a well-meaning guest--might have put into straightening up his suit and tie, by the time Newt walks down the aisle, his necktie is glaringly mis-tied. Hermann and Newt bicker over the tie, oblivious to the guests waiting on them until, finally, Hermann fixes it to satisfaction, and the ceremony resumes.

They exchange vows and rings with some nervousness and a fair amount of emotion. Hermann removes Newt's glasses, and they kiss...

And then, in an act of symbolism, they tear up the dividing line.

Two halves, one now connected whole.

Reception:

Please partake of the open bar during dinner, but try not to get too carried away. Before cake is served, there is champagne and the opportunity to give a toast. Feel free to embarrass yourself or the newlyweds with a toast. Gifts may be left on the table or presented to the newlyweds.

Newt does NOT shove the cake in Hermann's face when they cut the first slice...however much he is tempted and/or egged on.

After dinner, the dance floor opens up. The newlyweds dance their "first" dance as husbands. Hopefully no one is too terribly drunk. Newt and Hermann take some of this time to greet everyone and socialize.

At the end of the night, Newt--more than a wee bit drunk--commandeers a piano and attempts to play John Legend's All of Me. It's going great....UNTIL he starts to sing.

Hermann all but hauls him away by his ear and excuses them both.

Please enjoy the evening.

Hermann returned his smile, dipping his head in thanks. His hand seemed to be permanently attached to Newton's.

"Thank you, Dr. Brown. We're glad you and Mr. Gold were able to attend. I trust you've been enjoying yourselves?"

"Indeed, but love has a way of expanding the realms of possibility, as you well know," he answered with a soft smile, turning his head back toward their table and smiling fondly. It was damn near miraculous that they were here together, and he intended to enjoy the night to its fullest.

"Thank you for your hospitality, your patience...for everything, to be honest. Many happy years to the both of you."

His gaze wavered just a little. Who knew weddings could be so emotional?

Hermann followed his gaze, pleased that Gold had the decency to accompany Dr. Brown to their wedding. He looked the happier for it.

"Do you think you might have a ceremony of your own in the future?"
4thdimensional: (proud of you)

Doc's cheeks turned a distinct shade of pink at the question. Him and Gold in this position in the future? It was a nice dream...a very nice dream, but he had to shake his head.

"We're happy together, but I don't believe we're in the mood for the formality of it. Still...you two are an impressive inspiration for any other waiting couples."

Raised brows doubt that particular description, but decides to accept it at face value anyway.

"So long as you're happy then- and you certainly appear to be. We wish you all the best."
4thdimensional: (see you in the future)

"Thank you, and the feeling is mutual. I'm thrilled for you both, and honored to celebrate your wedding," Doc said gently, a hint of a smile on his face.

"Here's to a long and fulfilling adventure, for the both of you."
