However, she doesn't own anything else and anything she buys will likely be a one-time use thing. What do people usually do? Totally casual or nicer?
I say dress. It's your wedding. Besides, everyone should have at least one "dress up" outfit.
Sweetie, we're crooks. If everything were right, we'd be in jail.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I'm, uh...I'm MCing the Masquerade at a local sci-fi convention in October.
In stripey tights and a candy bra?

Thanks for the input. Yeah, I think I"m gonna make her buy a nice outfit. Jeans are just not right. I'm going to buy a dress for the occasion, but not a "wedding" dress. Just a nice dress that makes me feel pretty.

Just so you all don't think DF is totally insane, her point is that we are really only doing this for political purposes (getting married has never been a huge dealie for us) and we've been "married" for many years at this point. Still making her dress nice though.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Can we get video of you singing "I feel pretty, oh so pretty, I feel pretty and witty and gay! And I pity any girl who isn't me today."??
Because I would pay ONE MEEEEEEELLION DOLLARS for that.

That sounds like a lovely plan.

What convention?
ION, someone remind me that obsessively googling for a certain pair of vintage shoes probably isn't going to make them magically appear in my size.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
What convention?
