Liam sat at a tabble and waited for his wife Erin.

Warren sat watching the two talk with a smile on his face. Glad to see they're hitting it off. "Congratulations, Egypt!" Warren was happy listening to the two girls talk, that was until the talk turned of wedding colors. Alexa's enthusiasm scared him a little. You'd think she was planning hers... At the thought his face paled and he started to breath rather fast. "Um...I think I need some air." He got up fast before anyone could say anything and left the reception hall to the security check area. After a few minutes he walked back in and headed toward the drink table, trying to avoid Alexa.

"I'd love to dance with you, J.J., but I have a feeling we better wait for the bride and groom to start the festivities and give the okay. After all, the first dance does belong to them," Samantha smiled.

Egypt leaned back from Alexa's zeal for her wedding colors. "Thank you. I hope it turns out how I see it in my head. I even have a special surprise for Nathan." She said to her, she had been planning that surprise since Nathan bought his piano. When she saw how happy it made him she wanted to see that look on his face again. "Yes I have 11 sisters I've been to my share of weddings too." She smiled.

She smiled over at him, "Thank you so much Warren." she told him. What was going on with these two? Were they dating or something. She watched Warren practically turn over the table to get out of there. She had to move her legs to get out of his way when he bolted. She watched him high tail it out of there like his pants were on fire. "What in Merlin's frilly pink underwear was that about?" She asked to no one since she was now sitting at an empty table again.

"Excellent point, Miss Rose," Mona chimed in. "I'm completely famished. Wonder what's on the menu?"

Stacey-Ann half limped into the reception area and looked about at all the purple and thought time to make more friends and she sat down hoping to have someone join her

Dora saw a woman sitting by herself at a table, and decided to join her, since none of her friends at the ministry attended the wedding.
She went closer and started: "Hello, do you mind if I sit here?"
Just then she realized that she knew the woman. Dora remembered talking to her at the cafeteria.
"Stacey-Ann, isn't it?" she asked, hoping the name was right.

Stacey-Ann looked up and said "Nope go ahead and yes i am Stacey-Ann" Stacey-Ann couldn't quite remember the woman's name "Are you Dora?" Stacey-Ann thought that was right

Erin walked over to the table where Liam was sitting. "Hi Honey, I'm sorry I took so long getting here, the line for the Ladies, was a nightmare."

"Do you want me to grabb so cake, then we can get back home" replied Liam.

"Please." She smiled softly as she sank into a chair.

Liam got him and Erin some food "let's eat this then we can get off home and have an early night"

Miley walked into the Reception Hall and looked around.Wow,this was lovely.Still,purple wasn't her color,but that's okay.She took a seat in one of the purple chairs and looked for a waiter.She was thirsty.

Jacob found himself in the reception, which he much preferred to finding himself in the wedding ceremony. Once there, however, all he could see where plenty of people, sitting or standing about, none of which he knew.

He noticed one young woman sitting alone at a table and figured he might as well start somewhere. Jacob made his way over, wondering at all the purple. The uniform colors clearly displayed a sort of determination - but whether it showed obsessive organizing or a need to have everything her way (Jacob assumed this was all the bride's doing), Jacob wasn't sure.

"Hello," Jacob began once he reached the table. "Do you mind if I join you? I don't really know anyone yet." He held out his hand. "Jacob Webster, International Magical Cooperation."

Miley looked up at the man who came eover to her."Hello,"she said."Sure,you can sit here."She shook his hand."Miley Carter.Department of Magical Education.In the Examination Authority Division."

Jacob smiled warmly as they shook hands. "I lucked out," he joked. "My department and division have the same title, so I only have to say it once."

He sat down, feeling like his plum suit matched the rest of the decor a bit too well. Next time he had a choice between black and purple, he'd choose black, but he couldn't think up another situation with that decision to make.

"How is it around here? In the Ministry? I applied for a job a bit later than everyone else, I was in Sweden until two months ago. And then I had to find an apartment affordable on an unemployed budget...so I'm a little out of what's going on."

ooc: I have to go, I'll respond tomorrow.

Richard sat at the side of the hall with a glass of wine. He was enjoying himself but kept himself alert being security. He put the wine down on a table next to him and watched the dancing with his hands clasped behind his back as his foot tapped to the music.

Alexa watched Warren go, a smiled playing at her lips.
"Why are men so....." She laughed and went to get the drinks.
She was just asking the bar man for the drinks when she saw Warren over by the drink's table.
"Warren, seriously! The way you reacted, you'd think I was planning my own" She rolled her eyes and took the drink's back to her table.

"Well whatever you do, it's going to be a gorgeous ceremony. You and Nathan are just so sweet together." She smiled as Egypt explained her wedding gift to Nathan.
"11 sisters? Wow, that's a huge family. I won't say anything else. Warren might end up thinking I want children"

She smiled at her. "Thank you. I hope you and Warren will be there." She said hoping she wasn't stepping on Warren's toes. "Yes my parents thought 12 would be a nice rough number to stop at." she chuckled. She was so glad that her and Nathan got along so well. They didn't have to play those silly dating games that more couples seemed to be playing

Alexa sensed Egypt's confusion as to whether her and Warren were an item.
"Yes, I'm sure we'll be there" She said, gently stressinng 'we'll'.
She looked a little anxious but it was probably because she was on a table alone with practical strangers..

"12? Well at least you could never be lonely in that household." Alexa smiled.

Draconis wandered in,"They have a taste for purple."He mumbled to himself.
Then he noticed somebody with a scar on his temple,then took out his wand,And he wispered."Accio Ministry paper clipping"Then A clipping landed in his hand as he put his wand in his pocket.
QUIDDITCH CATASTROPHY!!
Earlier this week,Warren Rodemiere received a Nasty Bludger to the temple.In a Quidditch Press he announced his Reisigning of his Glorius Quidditch days.Then he saw a picture of a person being carried off a Quidditch feild,With a scar that looked as though he cut a Artery."Ah..Why talk to him now...I dont want to annoy any body."He said putting the 45 year old clipping in his pocket.

"Oh that will be wonderful." She told her with a smile. She was happy for all the couples around. "Yes we did spend a lot of time together, me and my sister Tomasina are the closet though." She admitted to Alexa. "I could always find a quiet spot in the palace to be alone. We didn't always want to spend time with each other."

"Do you have any siblings?" She took a sip of her drink after she asked the question.

Leading the way towards the reception hall, Enrcio sauntered towards a table and turned to make sure Cambell was still with him. "Care to sit?" he asked politely, pulling out a chair for her. The decorations in the hall, which he had just barely noticed, had too much purple for his taste. Rico only liked about four colors anyways, and if it wasn't black, brown, blue, or green, then it was too girly for him. Still, it wasn't a bad setup for a wedding reception.

"Edie, do you mind if I sit here with you. I really don't know anyone here. There is only two of us in my department and we don't get out much. We normally wait for the werewolves to come to us or be brought to us. Doesn't happen much."

Freedom at long last!

Nathan wandered into the reception unable to hide the smirk on his face for managing to escape his post at the Security checkpoint... for the time being anyway. He took at look around and pulled a disgusted face. Purple... and lots of it. Purple cake, purple flowers, purple seats, purple tables... Purple dance floor? That was actually kinda cool, in a ...er... tacky cool sort of way. Perhaps he would ask Egypt if they could have a purple dance floor at their wedding... with karaoke. See how her mother likes that idea.

It was busy in here, but he hadn’t missed out on the food, thank Merlin – There wasn’t even any sign of the waiting staff yet - Nathan was famished after all his hard graft being the most unlikely Security Guard imaginable.

He saw Egypt, looking even more stunning than earlier, now in a little black number – oh how he loved it when she wore muggle clothes. She was sitting taking to Alexa and this pleased him greatly – it was about time she got to know some Ministry workers other than him. Women needed other women. Fact. Yeah, her sisters were around at home at the moment, but that wouldn’t be forever. She couldn’t spend her entire life around Nathan and Paris only – the two of them would drive the poor lady bananas in the end.

As tempted as he was to interrupt the two ladies, he decided not to disturb at the moment as they seemed to be engrossed in conversation. No doubt talking about shoes, or clothes, or babies or weddings or something. ...So to the important thing... where abouts was the bar in this place? He was in desperate need of a... er... gillywater. ...Duty, sadly, calls.
