Astronauts should not have swords. Not with fabric pressure suits.
That's why the exterior of the suits should be chainmail. But it'd be some high-tech chainmail, made of titanium or carbon fiber.
edit for clarity....
It's like, in the middle of all this, I'm paranoid that you'll think I don't like poetry.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
There's a problem with the reception space, it won't accommodate the number of guests, and she says that she can't trim the guest list.
Is she taking into account the fact that not everyone will go? Just a thought.

Swouncing
Like send invitations to the bachelorette party which include a fun and entertaining way to say "hire a stripper and both the bride and I will kill you."
Maybe that can be one of the games at the party? That's like two birds with one stone sort of thing, right?

Unless she already has RSVP's. My family wasn't really good about responding so I planned for 3/4 of the guest list to show up. About 1/2 did so we were all good.

Vortex, so... what does she want you to do about it?

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

I think I missed something, unless someone's having a Rennaisance-themed wedding in space, in which case I heartily approve and demand to be invited.

Thrive to spite them
One thing I noticed at all my relatives weddings -- no accomidations were made for vegetarians. Now, there are only 3 cousins who are, but at these weddings the only food available was fruit and veggies and dip.
One wedding had little quiches some with just cheese but that was it. The other had some veggie things, but all with some kind of meat. Like the procuitto wrapped asparagus.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Swords for astronauts, titanium chainmail for all!

If I get married, I want to have a Rennaisance-themed wedding on Mars. I'll dress up like Ming the Merciless.

Excellent question. Unless she's just looking for a shoulder to cry on. I don't let people cry on my shoulders who have the solution to their problems.
Damn, that monkey story is driving me crazy. I'm going to email the news website and complain about the crappy reporting.
