The bride was lovely, the groom terribly handsome, and they seemed very much in love! Best wishes for many years of happiness together

It really was a lovely wedding, and the reception was simply amazing.

My feet are quite worn out from dancing.

Thanks again for inviting me! It really was jolly, though it sounds like all the planning beforehand was rather a trial to you.

At least we'll have something to talk about in those essays besides cramming for O.W.L.s.

See you on the train!

It was indeed jolly, wasn't it? I believe Karo was quite pleased that it all came off well. Certainly there was no shortage of people on the dance floor when it came time. The Doctors of Myddfai were rather a daring choice, of course, but Karo judged things to a nicety, as she always does, and the evening was a triumph of feasting for the old and dancing for the young. All in all, a most satisfactory event, the reception.

The planning beforehand is something we are all glad to have behind us, yes, but it certainly paid off. Grandfather's attendant made sure he was where he needed to be at the right times in the ceremony, and that nothing untoward occurred. The flower girls were darling; could you believe those tiny charmed wings? That wedding planner may have run mad with certain touches, but the flower girls really were rather adorable. And of course all the preparation work and the wedding itself means that twenty-four inches of essay will practically write itself.

Did you get to try the little iced cakelings with the spun-sugar bird's nests on top? I could owl you one if you like, as there are some left over. The marzipan birds are not singing quite as tunefully, but they still taste nice.

I do think about it sometimes, I mean, what it would be like to plan a wedding of my own. It sounds quite thrilling in some ways, but also rather a lot to manage! It's good that no one in your family is really the wild, carousing sort.

The cakelings were delicious! Did you happen to bring any back?

School food is so dull.
