Relationship Summary: Starlight and Due North’s romance, despite their astral themes, have been not star-crossed at all but entirely star-struck. Due North was entirely stunned upon seeing Starlight for the first time, and likewise Starlight had been taken with the blue gentleman, though she had been much more subtle with showing it. Good relationships start with good friends, so Starlight was reserved until she better knew Due North, and know him for the big gentle lug that he was, eager and sweet and everything a mare could hope for. Friend-dates slowly evolved into date-dates, usually with Starlight trotting amused circles around the fumbling Due North- not cruelly, Starlight only curious about how serious North was about her and if they matched her own developing feelings. Time passed and North's often clumsy attempts at wooing Starlight didn't falter for a moment. There were picnic dates under a big starry sky and a tour of Starlight's home-slash-observatory and several running-ins in town. After a few years of often humorous courtship, Starlight and Due North are undoubtedly each other's Special Somephony.
RP Links:Lost to time immemorial. This is an incomplete record, some interactions were over PM from 2012 to 2013, and neither of us have them anymore. I have made the effort to catalog each encounter I can find. The instances I can remember for-sure that happened in PMs will be summarized to the best of my memory. (In-Thread) First Meeting. (In-PM; Lost) Observatory Date: Starlight showing Due North around her home, her collection on astrological tools and books. The power goes out and they decide to spend the evening watching the stars from her back yard. (In-Thread) Date Planning. (In-PM; Lost) Around Town: Chance encounter meet up. Nothing huge happens, they just spend time together. North bumbles around his crush and Starlight really starts admitting her romantic feelings towards him. (In-Thread) North being concerned about Starlight's tussle with Reaper. (In-Thread) Small Lead-Up to In-Guild RP, Date Planning (In-Guild) Bella Notte; The Proposal! If a picture is worth a thousand words, maybe this will sweeten the deal. (I feel bad because the interactions I have to post don't really feel the beefiest and most substantial, mostly because they weren't done para-format, but the bigger events I can remember happened in PM and cannot be recovered, like the Observatory Date. I hope they can still qualify and I assure that future wedding attempts will be recorded thoroughly. @_@ )
Owners: Ruriska + Atmadja Phony 1:Pink Lemonade Phony 2:Midnight Snack Relationship Summary: When they were kids, they met (in thread somewhere) and chatted and Midnight Snack let on that he was interested in making tasty foods. Pink Lemonade, being the smart businessfilly she was, came over to his house to sample some foods and decided to strike up a business deal. When they became Old Enough, they (and their siblings) decided to open up a bar/lounge called Cloud 9. Pink Lemonade had a crisis of faith briefly, Midnight voiced his faith in her. They worked together and he was sweet and totally understanding of Pink Lemonade's flirtatious nature and how Everyphony Wants To Get Widdat, and she decided she liked the cut of his jib. They got together and now Candy Cane hints for grandchildren at every available opportunity. (They may have dodged a bullet last Halloween...)
Relationship Summary: Born at the same time in the colder months of the year, the two foals connected shortly after the new year when everyone began to shake off packages. Not long after, Aurora grew up and was recruited into a band called Darkhope, and left Phonyland for the worlds beyond. Pale Moonlight continued to grow up in Phonyland with his family and making friends. After Darkhope's freshman album dropped, Aurora returned to Phonyland while working on the next album as she was deeply homesick. Pale and Aurora ran into each other again and the two, now adults, reconnected instantly and have been glued to the hip since. They now both work together professionally with Darkhope and have been having a quiet, low key relationship over the music they're making together.
RP Links: Lua managed to dig some of it up! Thanks Lua! Meeting As Foals - Aurora and Pale meet! Reunion - A chance encounter reignites old memories and feelings. Audition - Aurora pulls strings, Pale nails it.
Previous Attempts: None, have been purposely holding them back for marriage. Previous Event Histories: None, see answer above!

Owners: StarieMichie + cursedandwandering Phony 1:Lemure of Love Lost Phony 2:Mooncake Relationship Summary: Mooncake and Lemure initially bonded over shared interests. He has a strong desire to study lore about supernatural creatures, and she likes reading about supernatural hotties in steamy novels. Neither of them said anything right away, and instead were both going to go on pining from afar, never knowing the other was interested. Mooncake's "frenenemy", Truths, stepped in and made him go and visit Lemure at work and fess up about his feelings. Lemure squee'd in fangirl delight, and showed that the feeling was mutual. Now they are dating, and spend most of their time being the cutest thing ever.
RP Links: Flirting as foals (in thread) -- The couple meets for the first time, and both become wildly infatuated after the short encounter. Confessions Take Courage -- Mooncake is goaded by Hard Truths to go and talk to Lemure and tell her how he feels. Love of Mythical Proportions -- The first date! They explore their feelings and are in that super cute phase of new love. And more to come!
Previous Attempts: None! We intentionally have not entered them in breeding raffles and contests, because we were holding out for a wedding. Previous Event Histories: None! See above. Previously Committed Phonies: For Michie: TACO x Sugar Delight (Summerfest 2012) Taquita x End of an Era (Christmas 2012)
This would be Cursed's first wedding! <3

EASTER WEDDING RESULTS So we added up the tickets, factored in the priority multiplier, rolled on random.org, and ended up with Pale Moonlight and Aurora Light! Which works, since that was the first couple to ask about a wedding out of everyone, whether in the raffle or not, from mid-last year, anyway, so if we hadn't switched to City Hall, we'd already be gearing up for their Easter wedding! As it is, the rest of the couples who entered will now get extra tickets in the Summer ballot for this round's attempt. Thanks for your applications! We'll see you again come summer, and feel free to bulk up your RPs in the meantime! ;D
And if you missed it, here's our wedding ballot process:
Re: the wedding ballots - yeah, like stated, we're rolling privately. Essentially, each application is a base 'ticket', then we add tickets to each base ticket based on factors like RP, past couple-activity, and past weddings per owner. The first year we also factor in a priority multiplier for the couples we've been previously contacted about. When the ticket list is worked out to our satisfaction, I roll on random.org. Believe it or not, most of these couples aren't even the couples we were contacted about - although a lot of them have half the same people involved. (To make it clear, the people aren't getting the priority bonus, the couples are.)
