If I may impose on the city for just a moment, I am having a... I suppose conundrum, as I refuse to be so overdramatic as to label it as a crises.

My fiancé, Rei, and my wedding is in November and while I have much planned and coordinated, the location for our wedding and reception just went bankrupt and closed. I am left trying to find a new location that will accommodate massive pokemon of Lapras, Dragonite, and Charizard sizes and even a bit bigger.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

[Ami hates hitches in her plans. But at least she has over two months to try and fix this. She already had her high-strung moment of panic before a swim and calming down.]

I'd suggest the beach, [of course she would] but it doesn't have quite the same charm in November.

[either way, somewhere with a body of water would be good for that Lapras]

[Voice]

[allergictoloveletters]

Ah Michiru-san. [Thank goodness, an opinion she truly trusts and values.] I did contemplate the beach but unfortunately it might be too cold. Even with as many fire pokemon between the two of us. I'm very annoyed the location we picked out went bankrupt and closed, it was a beautiful garden with a river and lake for the water pokemon we have and fire pits attached to the restaurant. I suppose it is a very good thing I've not sent out the invitations now that the address is wrong.

[incousinswithyou]

Were you going to have the ceremony outside?

[so the Pokemon can see, etc.]

[allergictoloveletters]

That was what we were hoping for, yes. And the fire pits would have kept everyone comfortably warm in case it got too cold or if the weather turned for the worse. The reception would have been both inside and outside.

[incousinswithyou]

[hmmm. There's a moment as she mulls it over, and then:]

Would you like to have it at my place? That is, my house - not the theater. I have an indoor pool that just might work.

[if anybody in Union has an indoor pool, it's got to be Michiru.

And by 'house,' she probably means mansion.]

I'm afraid the fountain won't hold your Lapras, but otherwise I'd say there would be plenty of room to host it at the Tycoon estate if you'd like. It was built with the size of fully evolved Dragon types in mind, after all.

[Voice]

[allergictoloveletters]

Thank you so much for the offer otherwise, Lenna-san. Yes, I'm afraid that it always seems to be one or the other that can't be accommodated. If I find a place compatible for our larger pokemon, our water types suffer, if I find a place for our water types, our fire types could be harmed. Some places won't even allow more than two pokemon and we'd never hear the end of it if we only allowed two of our pokemon from both our bonds to attend.

Plus I need some of our older pokemon to keep an eye on the babies. They are so young they might get fidgety so the location can't be too formal either.

And it would be inappropriate to use our shrine as we would still be coming off on the tail end of Soulfast.

[Voice]

[my_father_is_a_tycoon]

At least you still have some time to get it all sorted out. I'll keep my eye out for a good location too, and let you know if I find anything. You both deserve the most special wedding day you can get.

[Voice]

[allergictoloveletters]

And my security deposit back. It is unfortunate it had to close, but you're right, the one saving grace is the amount of time given to me to find another place.

[Voice]

[my_father_is_a_tycoon]

Well, again, if there's anything at all I can do to help, you only need ask.

Were you open to the idea of going outside Union? You could try a destination wedding.

[Video]

[allergictoloveletters]

Well... that's not impossible for an option, though I hadn't thought to look into the other cities after finding the initial location.

Re: [Video]

[child_of_luv]

Did you guys decide on a honeymoon location? You could move up the date a bit, and then head there a little early to have the wedding there, too.

I've heard destination weddings can be super romantic, too!

[Video]

[allergictoloveletters]

[She blushes a deep purple, never able to handle questions about her love life.]

M-Minako-chan that is a v-very personal question! But no, we can't move up the date. We have arranged it with Soulfast in mind.

Well... a destination ceremony with a reception in Union might not be so bad?

Re: [Video]

[child_of_luv]

[Minako looked a little surprised.]

But- but- people talk about their honeymoons all the time! It's nothing to be embarrassed about.

[Now she was blushing in return for Ami's sake.]

I-I mean... yes. That would be nice, too. It would give you a little extra time to find some place to host the reception?

[faithfulflame]

Dear, I actually had an idea for the location.

[She's been stewing on this for a while.]

[allergictoloveletters]

You have? I am eager to hear your solution! [She says it with sincerity, though she can't say she's surprised her fiancé has come up with a possible solution.]

[faithfulflame]

Well the more I think about it, the more obvious it is.

Ami, where's a place where fire and water meet?

[allergictoloveletters]

If you mean figuratively, a setting or rising sun on the horizon of the water.

If you mean literally, an active volcano.

[faithfulflame]

Yes. That's right. There's a volcanic island only a few hours away, isn't there?

Jolteon!!

[ OH NO NOT TRAINER'S FRIENDS' WEDDING

There is a dismayed Leavanny in the background trying to fetch the Warp Band, but for now, the Band is resting on a table and there's a snout pressed against it. This is awful! Without a place to hold it, the wedding is in danger! What if

what if you used the Theater???

Would that

help????? ] Jolt jolteon??

[Video]

[allergictoloveletters]

Hello, Gold. [She sadly, cannot understand pokemon, but she will try and reassure him all the same.]

It's alright, I'm sure Rei and I will find somewhere. We have plenty of time to look, thankfully.

[Video]

[actsmagnificent]

Eee...

[ Gold seems unconvinced. But he pulls his face away from the screen long enough for Natto to pick it up.

The Bug-type tilts the Warp Band to indicate the hallway, hoping to pantomime what he's about to ask. Would you like him to try and find Trainer? ] Vanny vanny?

[Video]

[allergictoloveletters]

Ah, the theater? Oh that might be a good idea, but it's something I would need to speak with my beloved on the matter. And your trainer as well. If the theater isn't ready in time, we may have to consider a different place.

[Video]

[actsmagnificent]

Van van. [ Natto will see if he can find Trainer, than. Just one moment--

And then Gold gets in the way and Natto trips, juggling the Warp Band. Sorry for the shaky camerawork, Ami... ] Jolt!
