Ceremony has concluded wonderfully! RECEPTION GOING ON ALL WEEKEND/PERHAPS BEYOND - DO DROP BY! [ You can still sign the Registry in this thread! All entries will be added - if you still want the Candygrams after Valentine, just let us know~ ]
After raising a brood of children from last summer's Generation, our lovely Gen couples, Colton & Mena, and Isoke & Gyasi, are finally tying the knot - and what better time to do it...than Valentine's Day?
That's right! All of HyTech has been turned upside down preparing for our biggest of events and our Valentine's event is no different - no time for Hytes and Lytes and commercialism... this year... ...we're offering a FREE Byte Candygram for each couple you leave well-wishes in the Guest Registry for instead!
. Couples & Bytes .
[ please click on the respective Hytes for their full-length shots | click on respective names for cert thread/rp journal ]
If you leave well-wishes for Isoke & Gyasi [Springbok+Giraffe] - you are entitled to a Wedding Cupcake Groom Byte!
On Valentine's Day, these orbs will open and the Byte will emerge!
[ For more information on Bytes - visit this Directory ] You may leave your well-wishes till 11.59pm of the 13th of February - well-wishes left after deadline will still be recorded, but you will not receive Candygrams for them.
We apologise greatly for the fact that you can technically only have 1 Wedding Cake Bride Byte and 1 Wedding Cupcake Groom Byte to send out/keep as we are short of time! However - your individual characters/pets/etc. [e.g. Hytes] may also leave well-wishes and thus be entitled to Bytes as long as each entry is unique from your other messages! You may also refer to the Art-for-Bytes post below for information on how to get further Bytes…
While it is not mandatory, we do encourage thoughtful, personalised messages for our impending newlyweds! [In addition to their RP Journals linked above, we also have partial records of their early relationship history in our Shop RP Log]

Points to Note:
For Mena…
- Chestpiece patterned after steampunk pin, with diamond stud inlays instead of ruby
- 'Ruffles' are probably made of some crisp-but-flowy material. The repeating waves are all lined with the gold trim of course [we were just too lazy to colour/pencil the rest...]
- The gloves are the same on both arms, long white, cinched by buckle for, uh, steampunkiness...
- The circlet and choker have the same gear pattern that I illustrated really badly...they're supposed to take their cue from the body of the pin, with crystal/diamond stud inlays. [There's a veil attached to the circlet that's going over her half-updo]
- Bouquet is made of ROSES
[- Minor note: I left Mena's bangs, uh, the eartail bits, half-drawn so as not to obscure the chestpiece, just in case.]
For Colt...
- Will be wearing Mena's usual goggles on his head to complete the outfit!
- It's basically a modified swallowtail with buckles to match Mena, pants are white
- The pin that the cravat is centred around is supposed to be a replica of the steampunk pin without the wing sections.
Isoke & Gyasi

- Trim on collar and inner vest is GOLD, gem is Dark Red
- Pants are black for BOTH

Moments of Interest! Vows? I imagine at least Colton is going to sob for one reason or another. 8D I think even Gyasi is going to get a little misty-eyed. :3 Kiss? Mushymushymushy. Cake? Colton + Mena = Coltonface of Cake. Gyasi + Isoke = Gyasiface of Cake. XD Official? The wedding pictures! PARTY! As in, the wedding party! All the Hytes and Staff confirmed above would be wonderful!! [IE, Georgie singing, all the lovely girls in their dresses, socializing, etc]
Selfishly:These are things that I, Chrys, would like to see. They are by no means necessary or a list to follow, just silly little images I have in my head. :3 Mind you, if you do choose to take on the endeavor, they're all bust/waist up to me, so don't go too crazy okay? XD
º Colton & Mena: The Cake Smashing. [It will be epic.]
º Gyasi & Isoke: Dancing. [Slow dance. You may "d'aaaaw'" now.]
º Gyasi & Xin Yue: Dancing. [:3]
º Maxwell: Delivering his speech. [If you can imagine his face while he's horrifying Colton, you know what I mean.]
º Julien: Bunny. [I can't help it. I love the guy. XD]
º The Kids: Dressed Up. [The Kuppys and Spiraffes in their wedding garb or their dinner garb - they really brought both couples closer, in my opinion, and a good deal of the blame credit goes to them!]

We want to make this Wedding as wonderful for our lovely couples as possible - but we're running out of time…especially time to advertise!
If you have some spare sig space - do them a great favour and spread the word around!
. FAQ . Why is there a non-Gaia url in the cert?
In the event that the cert cannot be linked back to our shop, such as randomised signatures, a passerby wishing to visit our shop can access the thread through a link on hytech.silentragedy.net [as the actual shop url is too long to fit on the cert]
Shouldn't be doing this with a massive Financial Accounting test soon! 8D
Dedicated to everyone who has a good sense of humour – which are the people who will not attempt to kill me for putting this song up.

EPEE, MY SWEET.lol I spent what, 10 minutes listening to the You-tube video and listening to my version on the comp again and again only to realise what went wrong when Jun said, "Check the link why doncha" and I DID and I realised that in my brain-dead stupor of setting up the thread I renamed the wrongest mp3 in my uploads folder I could ever rename. So uh, if you're genuinely interested in what was pretending to be Bill Bailey's Love Ballad, it's This Armistice by the Receiving Ends of the Sirens, and I swear that my music folder is a lot more alternative-indie than screamo. Oh, I'm terribly sorry for putting you through all that confusion for some horrendous stupidity on my part. Jun is burrowing in embarrassment while I'm just laughing though.
EVERYONE ELSE, I got the link right. Go listen to something fantabulous now that I've fixed the link. xd
Taking your dedications if you want to get this song off the front page!
PM me with:
â™ The url to the song [mp3 or streaming]
â™ Band and Title
â™ Your message [dedication or otherwise]]
The only sound I heard in my lonely silent world is the rusty hammer of my heart nailing at the hatred in my soul! Make it something else.
