Announcer: As the sun sets, Rhoda's moonlit wedding is set to begin!

Lompoc, California

Athena: It's a bit dark don't you think.

Juniper: And a little chilly.

Juniper (Traditional Princess): To be honest I've never been to an outdoor wedding let alone a beach wedding. So I'm kind of excited to see what it's like.

Mia: Aw that's so cute!

Mia (Japanese Kitten): When I looked at her wedding space I was amazed! There were white curtains around the wedding arch and it was covered these Christmas Lights, I guess along the curtains! There were also these fixed lanterns along the aisle and sky lanterns across the venue! It was so clever.

Juniper: Aww look there like stars.

Athena: Except the white ones are the same size as the supposed Red Giants!

Juniper: I really loved the lanterns! It made it feel like we were in space! I just wish they were brighter!

Mia: Oof!

Juniper: I wish there was a little more legroom so we can actually find our seats.

Athena: Maybe we should have worn flip-flops instead of our sandals!

Athena (Unexpectedly Yellow): It was very hard to find our seats! It was kind of tight packed and with it being so dark I'm surprised no one crashed into the chairs!

Juniper: It's not so bad I guess!

Athena: Yeah but most of the light is coming from the streets.

Mia: Shh the music's starting.

(Rhoda starts down the aisle)

Juniper: (gasps) Aw she's so pretty!

Athena: Rhoda look so beautiful! She had this beautiful star shaped pin on the side of her head! Her hair was half up with braids and had soft curls when it flowed out.

Minister: We are here on this magnificent and beautiful night to celebrate one of life's greatest moments — we are all present to give recognition to the worth and beauty of love — and to publicly witness the creation of an outward marriage bond that Rhoda and Solomon have already been creating inwardly.

(Solomon looks deep into Rhoda's eyes and smiles)

Juniper: The ceremony was so beautiful! It may not have been bright but I could tell that Rhoda's eyes were smiling the whole time. She looked so beautiful.

Rhoda: I never thought I would find a man like you. You have given me everything a girl could want. You gave me love, purpose, and life. I want you to be the one I want to start my family with.

Mia: The vows were very cute and personal. I could hear Rhoda trying not to cry. Very intimate.

Solomon: Rhoda Teneiro, what is there to say about you? You are fun. Creative. Lively. Caring. And yes, beautiful. There is nothing other to say other than your love is stronger than anything in the universe. You make me know that everything I need is right here. Right in front of me. And you light the way to anywhere in the universe. You want to know I love you well.

(Leans in to kiss)

Rhoda: I love you too.

Minister: I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride!

(Lights turn off)

(Everyone jumps).

(Heart shaped Fireworks shoot up)

(Rhoda and Solomon kiss as it goes off)

Juniper: That's so pretty

Athena: How'd they get the city to do that?

Mia: I got to admit as corny as the firework was, it was very lovely. Especially with the night sky being so clear.

Juniper: I am in awe!

Athena: Could that be anymore romantic?

(Solomon carries Rhoda down the aisle)

Athena: Time for a party!

Announcer: Drinks are served at the hotel nearby the beach!

Mia: I swear the hall was very festive. There was a disco ball on the ceiling and the walls were decorated with a "comets asteroids and stars" backdrop. Honestly the very walls made it feel like we were in space! The only thing I didn't get was the big black thing in the middle. What's that called?

Athena: I loved how everything was space related! You had comets on the walls. The disco lights. And of course the planets above each table. Pluto included!

Athena: VIVA LA PLUTO!

Juniper: I know where the sun is!

Juniper: I loved the hall. It looked like space. And I loved that the sun was above the happy couple's table. They are truly the light of the night!

(Walk under Mars)

Athena: Oh Hat!

Mia: Odd thing to have at a wedding.

Juniper: Aw! "Love is blinding"

(Athena puts it on)

Athena: I love it!

(They sit)

Mia: Aw look at the flower vases.

Mia: The flower vases were almost like little rocket ships. There were red and violet carnations in the vases. Very lovely.

Athena: Let's check out the cake.

Other two: yeah

Mia: Oh my goodness aren't we traveling somewhere fast.

Junie: The cake was pure space. They had constellations on the bottom layer, then the planets and oh the top.

Juniper: Isn't it so adorable.

Athena: Very extravagant.

Mia: As cute as the cake was, I was kind of wondering where the stuff from Rhoda's occupation is.

(Athena goes to the bar)

Athena: Drink of choice: The Red Planet

Mia: I must admit the Couple's drink was very good. I don't think the others minded it too much.

Juniper: Ew.

Athena: I'll drink it.

Athena: The drinks were good. And I loved that they had a cherry in each one. But I was getting a little hungry so my stomach was not happy.

Athena: I want food. This cherry won't last long.

Mia: Don't worry I think we're going to sit soon.

DJ: If I may have your attention. Announcing for the first time: MR. AND MRS. STARBUCK!

(Solomon and Rhoda run in holding hands)

(Everyone cheers)

Athena: After I got a good look at Rhoda as she and Solomon started dancing I got to admit her dress was absolutely gorgeous. It had this beaded style along the frontal bottom of her dress along with the top. And it sparkled a little. So cute.

Juniper: I loved how the dress was tight at the top yet flowed out as you hit the waist. Very elegant.

Mia: I did like the fabric and how they worked well together. But the strap did seem a little out of place. But otherwise very beautiful.

(Song finishes)

(Food begins to serve)

(Juniper eats her salad)

Juniper: Ooh this dressing is good. Here try some.

Mia: Mmm you're right.

Athena: I love croutons.

Juniper: Rhoda had a plated meal with 3 courses. Appetizers, main course and a little dessert. It was all good, except for the main course.

Athena: Sweet Chicken.

Mia: Here Juniper you can have my rice.

Juniper (smiling): At least we have a bowl of bread in the middle.

Athena: Good sauce.

Mia: I know right.

Juniper: The veggies are good to. Love the green beans.

Athena: The dinner was good. I ate every single bite of it. But that was mainly due to the lack of food at the beginning.

Juniper: Dinner was good. I ate plenty, but I wish there were more options of food for me to eat. Oh well.

Audience: Kiss. Kiss.

(Rhoda and Solomon kiss)

Mia: Aw they are so cute.

(Rhoda and Solomon go to the stage)

(Rhoda takes the microphone)

Rhoda: We would like everyone to remain seated.

Mia: What else are they planning?

(Lights turn off)

(Projector gives off green light)

Mia: Oh I get it now.

Girls: Shh.

(Laser light show)

Juniper: It was so beautiful. It felt like we were actually watching the aura lights, with a rainbow up against glaciers. All those colors. Purely indescribable. Oh it was so beautiful. I'm going to cry.

Athena: The music was absolutely gorgeous. It felt like one of those heavenly choirs. Oh with the lights waving and all those formations. It felt like heaven.

Mia: it was easily the best part of the reception. I loved every minute of it. especially the end when it lit up the room before finishing in a sea of red.

(Solomon puts his arm around Rhoda)

(They turn their heads)

Solomon: I never felt happier.

Rhoda: I feel like the happiest girl in the world.

Solomon: No I am. I have the most beautiful bride and this is the best night of my life.

(They kiss)

Announcer: Was the star-crossed wedding enough to win Rhoda and Solomon their dream honeymoon. The brides ranking on Dress, Food, and Venue will be disclosed later. For now they share the numbers for overall experience.

Mia: I am giving Rhoda's wedding a 7. I really loved the ceremony, and the reception. It was very creative and loved the ending! I am taking points off for the lack of light during the wedding. It wasn't that distracting but more would have been better. Also Rhoda seemed to really pull on the space theme. It was great but she was more focused on her husband's occupation than her own. I would have liked to see them intertwine a little.

Juniper: I am giving Rhoda a 7. I really loved the ceremony space and the moonlit ceremony. And the laser show was truly beautiful. However I did not like how cramped the wedding space was.

Athena: I am giving Rhoda a 6. I loved all the courses and I loved the ceremony but it was too dark and cramped. And I was not a happy camper waiting for all that food.


Announcer: Next, will the role reversing wedding be a hit.

Rhoda: She does not disappoint that's for sure.

Mia: I can't say I'm surprised Athena would do something like this.

Announcer: Or a miss.

Juniper: The bride's supposed to be the one going down the aisle.

AN: Finally 2 months later wedding 2 is up.

I actually think I made Rhoda's wedding more childish than Juniper's in retrospect.
