Can I please… go to sleep… it’s 4:00 am in Australia…
Who are the Bridesmaids? How many do you want?
I don’t know… I thought we’d just work that out in 2027?
Tell me… please… now?
(Sigh) I don’t know who yet… I’m thinking maybe 3…
3 bridesmaids and 3 groomsmen?
Yes… I’ve been at a wedding there with only 2 on either side and it looked like there wasn’t enough. 4 on either side — I don’t like the number 4 in Chinese. 5 is way too much. So 3 is the balance. 3 on either side makes 6, which in Chinese isn’t great, but also in Western numerology 6 represents balance… and then with us 2 in the middle it actually makes 8, which is a great number! And then the celebrant in the middle is 9, which is a great number in Chinese as well. And — maybe a Harpist? Which would be 10… which is okay, that’s like 10 of Cups in Tarot. So that’s fine.
There’s going to be a Harpist?
Oh yeah… (smiles) can you organise that?
(Nodding) Harpist… to be confirmed…
Electric guitars and things like that at the reception. Chapel ceremony has one Harpist. No piano, no organ music. Just one Harpist. Not even violins.
Oh… thought you said I get to be the music director?!
Well… that’s my Vision so far…
(Nodding) (Smiling)
I don’t care about the music at the reception. But the chapel ceremony — I’ve been there with all those other things. Okay, not the electric guitars. But I’ve been at ceremonies with piano, with organ music, with harpists, violinists. I don’t like having too many instruments at that ceremony. The most beautiful one I attended was just one Harpist. It’s enough for that venue. It’s beautiful.
Keep it simple…
Yes!
Does it have to be a glass Harp?
I don’t mind… whatever the harp looks like…
Okay… we’ll figure that out with the Harpist.
Yes…
Aussie Harpist?
Maybe…? (shrugs shoulders)
Okay, leave it with me.
(Nodding)
Back to Bridesmaids?
(Sigh) If there’s going to be three… see — by 2027 — I don’t know which friends are going to already be married?! I think I’m the rare person in the mutual friends group who’s still technically “single”~!!!
Don’t worry about them. How about… Gen Z or Zillennial bridesmaids?
Hmmm… (Thinking)…. Aussies?
Sure, why not?
Maybe… I can think of some goth girls but it’s going to be hilarious because they don’t give a shit about Christianity either?!?!?!
HAHAHAHHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA………….
Do you think that’s going to be okay?
(Shrugs shoulders) Nobody can say anything. They’re YOUR bridesmaids.
Okay, maybe 2 goth girls… and an… Irish? Friend…? I don’t know, maybe… by 2027? I have no idea if I’m even still going to be friends with these people!?!?!?!?
But you’re envisioning them. Now. They’re part of your vision…
Yeah. It’s kind of weird… I don’t know why they’re in my Vision…
They must be nice friends if you’re thinking about them.
My actual friends — like the Ipswich one — I’m not putting her through the tedium of being a Bridesmaid. I’ve been on the other side of that when she complained and complained and complained for WEEKS for having to be a Bridesmaid for another friend’s wedding. I’m never going to put her through that. She can be a guest and enjoy the wedding.
Ahh… I see… maybe that is why you are thinking of the other three…
Yeah, maybe…
Does that help you pick your three groomsmen?
(Nodding) YES… (Very happy)…
