"It's not that big. I wanted it small because of the time constraint." But a shake of her head and she blipped in and then blinked as she was immediately pounced upon and taken upstairs. "Well...you waste no time do you? The rings? My dress? The flowers? The food?" A snap of her fingers. "i made some of it and I've got dinner planned for Sevilin and I back at our house after this whole thing is done so don't worry about us and food. But I"m a mess..." SHe glanced down at herself and winced at the flour and cake batter and various other food particles that had landed on her person during her frenzied time in the kitchen.
Lateef nodded to Piper and the other girls as they hurried off to indulge in frivolity, then leaned down and held out his hand to Zykariel. "Are you ready to help your dad get ready for this? We need to get you ready as well." Thus gesturing to Malik and Sevilin and the other males. "Come on Inthara, time to go get fancied up."

"Have it all and it's all waiting and ready." Pushing Zahara into said room and then to the bathroom. "Step one, get yourself washed up and all presentable and then we'll get you in your dress, you can get a look over your rings and food is all taken care of." Poking her head out the door then a moment. "Malik! Flowers!" And back into the room. "And now you'll have flowers. He can do that sort of thing."
Oh lord, he thought things were hectic before it looked like they were about to get even more so. He could see the scrambling now...though it would probably be over trying to keep clean and such, seeing as the women would take far longer. Though it was amusing to watch Zahara get dragged off and he turned his attention to his fellow men folk as the women would say. "It's going to be a long day, I can see that now."

Piper was the best. She took a quick shower, letting the hot water help melt away the issues that had been spinning through her head all morning and she emerged calm adn serene, wrapped in a towel. Her hair had been brushed as usual though she frowned, "Do you think I should go ahead and braid it? I was thinking I could braid this section right here," Gesturing to her long bangs, "Since the rest of it is too short to even think of doing it, but I'm not an Inthara yet..." Then turning and clasping a hand ot her mouth. "Is that my dress? My dress?" A shake of her head. "It came out so beautifully..."
"Weddings always are, my good man, though as long as she's happy, it's all worth it." Clapping him on the back, Lateef jerked his head for Sevilin to follow and took the men off to the room he'd already been told would be the 'groom' room. "Your clothes are on teh bed Inthara. Feel free to use the bathroom to change." Then taking to getting the child ready since his father was to be dressing as well. "Now's usually the time where hte married men, which is all of us in this room, give out advice. Anyone have anything to say?"

Piper had busied herself by getting Zahara's dress and taking it off it's hanger, laying it across the bed. "I think you should go ahead and braid it. It would be a nice gesture, seeing as you're going to be an Inthara." A blink at that statement. "You know, sheading your old name is kind of like sheading that old life you never wanted. I definately think you should go ahead and braid your hair." But a nod and then a pleased smile. "Happy with it? I dare say that man stayed up all night working on it. And here are your rings to have a look at." Producing a box then to Zahara.
It was almost like being walked to gallows, but in a good way...if that made any sense. But onward with him, snatching up clothes and getting himself changed, no need for a shower seeing as he'd taken one that morning before they even came here. Thus a quick change into what Zahara called his fancy clothes and back out to the others, but turning to his son to make sure he was all together. "Advice hm? Not much advice you an give reguarding Zahara." Brushing a hand over his cheek then...yeah fun to have stitches still in your face on your wedding day.
Kieran was leaning against the wall, ticking notes in his head and everything. After all, he had indeed noticed the particular pattern of work across Sevilin's face. Which made him wonder indeed, seeing as that was an Andalian thing. "I count as married, how nice." Chuckling lightly. "To be ready within the hour will always mean 'I want you ready in fifteen minutes'."

A glance at Kieran in the 'we'll talk about that later' way, before a smirk at hearing his name and flowers.
"And women always, always love flowers. oh and when they say 'I'll be out in a few minutes' plan on somewhere in the vicinity of thirty to fourty. and never, ever mention age, hip size, or hair disasters."
before getting some seeds, soil, and a bit of necromanctic green glow...and poof, red roses and white tulip combo. picked up, wrapped in purple wrap, and sent over.
"If she doesn't like that she'll be here in thirty seconds. I'll even wager ten steel on it."

Zahara stared at Piper for a long moment and then her lips slowly tilted up and any doubts that hadn't been soothed by the shower melted away. She had nothing as Zahara Val'Ril. Zahara Inthara, however, had a chance at things she'd never imagined for herself. "You're exactly right. I almost wish Sevilin knew how freeing it could be. I think he takes a certain amount of pride over his name though." Dropping the towel and slipping into the dress easily enough then smoothing it down over her form. "So...is it me?" Then squealing with delight as she took the box and opened it and gazed over the rings. "Beautiful. You did everything I asked for Piper. Thank you...so much."
Lateef nodded, "You are married in every aspect except official and it's good enough for me. Fianna wears your ring, thus, you are married for the purposes of this." He glanced at the bouquet for a moment and shook his head. "Zahara's more the type to use flowers in potions. Just remember, women are almost ninety-nine percent of the time right. Choose your battles wisely and expect to lose a good majority of them but do so with manly dignity. Bedroom activity is a good way to love them out of snits too. Gods I hate those."
He had noted Sevilin's face as well but thought it better not to say anything. After all, all Andalians in that room knew what that mark meant and soon what the scar would brand him as forevermore. Interesting to know he was dead to Andal. That hopefully would mean that no more trouble would come as the couple embarked on a new life together. "Oh and don't ever answer the fat question. There is no right answer and it will go horribly wrong on you. 'Do you have anything you'd like to say?' always means she is royally pissed off and has something she'd like to say but wants to know if you know what you've done wrong."

He dare say he chuckled as he was tying his son's boots up once again and brushing the child off some as he stood him up on the bed to have him at a better height to look over. "The secerts they think we don't know but really do. Valuable information to be sure." It was amusing, men bonded by ratting out the secrets. "Flowers yes, various negative body image comments are to be avoided, and I know how to handle her bad mood already, there's a certain finess to it." Though in tying his son's shoes he noted something. "And my ring is missing...that's bad."
"Around her neck." But shrugging lighty. It wasn't nice to remind himself of thing anyway but merely enjoy how things were at the moment. A nod to Malik at that particular look and he turned his attention back to things at present. "Oh yes, and tease them. You have to just mess with them from time to time. It's amusing and often makes things quite enjoyable. And you have to fight too. Nothing says healthy relationship like a small fight from time to time."
He was holding to his father's leg as he was listening to all the things being said. Wow, girls were complicated if anything now weren't they?
Flowers were duely delivered and she gave a smile. He was so dependable wasn't he? "And now we have flowers." Handing them to Isle to hold for the time being before turning her attention back to Zahara. "He had the right too, I mean he's probably about the only respectable thing to come out of that family in some respects and get away too." Taking to braiding that section of Zahara's hair as she got in her dress, then stepping back. "Definately you. I do think you're going to look perfect." Sentiments echoed by the other women there.

A small smirk at Sevilin.
"trust me, if it was bad, you'd have heard about it. I took my ring off once to do something, Piper caught me, and I got hell for about three minutes before she notice that I was up to my shins in nasty things and had it all over my hands."
Picking up his son, and setting him next to Zykariel.
"Oh and the 'does this make my rear look big' question is the twin of the fat question. no right answer there either. say yes, they hurt you. say no, they complain they don't have a nice enough rear."

Arthur of course made it to the fortress without any problems, after all he didn't want to miss Zahara's wedding since he was invited and they are good friends. So with a small sigh he made his way through Twilight unilt he found out where the guys were, after all he did hear that the women were off on thier own getting things done so he didn't want to bug them. So once he got to the room he knocked on the door to let them know he was there then opened it to allow himself inside. "Hey guys...how's it going?" He said with a light smile as he stood there, he couldn't wait to see how this wedding would go.

Closing the box carefully, she set it back down on the bed and sighed. She gave a nod and then turned back to the mirror, scrutinizing herself from each possible angle. She did look good, she had to admit that to herself. Pleased with everything at this point she nodded and then plopped down on the bed. "So ladies...is there anything else that I need to know before I do this?"
Zykariel shook his head. "Mommy stole it. She had it with her last night when she came to kiss me goodnight."
"As long as you've got her figured out, you'll be fine. Just tease her, fight with her, love her, and take care of her. That's what most women want deep down inside. Be her protector and her helpmate but give her her independence as well. Rinc Kier knows women love their independence."

"Good to know that I don't have to worry about the ring issue then." Patting his son on the head as the boy confirmed things. "Did she now. Well, that mystery has been solved." Though perhaps an amused look at the little ring story. "Women fuss over such little things sometimes, I swear." And a snicker over at Lateef. "You don't know half of the independent issue she has." Turning his attention to the door as Arthur made an entrance. "Well well, look who's around."
They all exchanged a look and then she looked to Zahara. "No I think you're good. You know how to handle that man I would say...even with all his quirks. Though...don't worry, things will be just fine and don't think you have any wifely expectations to live up to, they really don't exist. Well, there is the kid aspect, but you have one of those and that's never been a problem for you. We ready then? Good. I'm going to get dressed and go tell the men folk." Piper thus leaving and indeed getting herself presentable, pulling on her surcoat to top the look before heading off to the men, poking her head in thier room. "Okay, we're ready you all go on up and do your man thing or whatever." Away with her back to where she belonged right now.

A look over at Arthur.
"you owe me work and more still. you've been trying to sneak around the past bit of time. things are going alright so far though."
before a nod to Zahara, adn picking his son up and setting him down.
"Alright..menfolk to the chapel. get your seats ready, you wait at the altar Inthra..we all know the drill. don't mind the highly polished and armed tier'dal, they have thier own part to play."
Ushering everyone up to the chapel proper. the illusionist, thought she had other instructions as well, was at the organ. along the middle in beteen pews were part of the colorguard, and to the right and left of the pulpit were the banner holders.

The elf crossed his arms and smiled at the drow. "Well it's good to see you too Sevilin, and congrats on your marriage." A small nod to that as he made his way into the room. "And trust me the last thing I wanted to do was miss this, this is a pretty special occasion really. When I got the invite I was pretty surprised but I'm happy for the both of you." He was telling the truth, after all Sevilin and Zahara have been through a lot so they do deserve to get married.
Though a turn to Malik and he gave a nod to the drow. "Alright I wont stop you from making me work Malik, I just had some things to do when I returned so I needed the time but now that I'm here I will pitch in once the wedding is over ok?" So off they went to the chapel and he was surprised at how well it turned out, from what he could remember they only had two days to do all of this? Well Arthur was pretty much impressed.

She nodded, she did know how to handle Sevilin though she preferred not to think of it that way. After all, by virtues of the same thinking, Sevilin would then know how to handle her as well and she wasn't one to be handled. Piper got a strange look for a moment and Zahara merely shook her head, then pulled on her boots and nodded. "Ready whenever everyone else is...I don't even know how this whole thing works."
Lateef had ducked into the bathroom to change quickly as well and then he too was ready to head over to the chapel. Piper's announcement got a nod and smile and he followed Malik. His eyes glanced over the place but he said nothing and merely walked with Sevilin up to the altar where he took his place. "You ready to do this, Inthara? Just remember, none of this will even matter once she walks through that door. You won't be able to take your eyes off her." He fixed his robe slightly and then waited, his gaze turned expectantly towards the door.

Walking to his son, he picked him up and put him on the ground so he could walk on his own, handing the boy Nym as well to hold on to. "Productions...weddings truly are for the women." Heading up with the others, being joined by Caprice, Fianna, and Isleandra on the way up and he walked along with Lateef to the alter...which he never liked being the focus on attention for anyone, but it was okay he supposed in this matter. Lightly he turned a look to Lateef. "Hopefully." Honestly hopefully because he wasn't enjoying the standing and being attention thing...Zahara could have all of that. But a light sigh, resting his hands behind him in the small of his back.
Isle gave a giggle as she walked in with the other. "There is so much blue in the room in wonderful male form that I may just start to loose it." Which got her duely elbowed by her mother as they had sat down.
Alone, Piper smoothed out a few wrinkles and tucked a few strands of loose hair on them both, handing Zahara her flowers and waiting a good three miuntes before everything. Had to make the men wait a little. "It's simple really, you just go up there walk up the aisle to the altar, and Lateef will pretty much do the rest for you. You simply get to gaze lovingly at the man you've chosen to be with and swim in the happy bubbling feeling. At least that's what I did." Taking a moment to pull out a potion and down it, grabbing the box that had both rings in it and then gestureing to Zahara. "Come on now, we've made them wait long enough. Let's get you married."
