Some people come into our lives for a while, leave footprints on our hearts and we are never the same.

The most beautiful discovery true friends make is that they can grow separately without growing apart. 

One of my dearest and best friends, Harley, and business partner in Second Life vowed to marry and cherish forever my truly dear and lovely friend, Simba !

The Forever Vow ~ Harley & Simba ~ May 7, 2013

It was an exciting morning in all the preparation for this grand wedding.

I selected an exquisite pink gown that I had picked up at the Hollywood 2013 Event by FA Creations since Simba told me her colours would be pink.  I quickly dressed and…….

I sent my radar IM to Harley and asked if he had picked out a tuxedo yet.  He had and, of course, Simba had already approved…..BUT….

I knew that one of my favorite designers of Second Life had quite an impeccable selection of tuxedos and asked if he wanted me to send a limo over to visit Adam EdelStein’s grand shop

and see if he preferred something else that would knock him off his grooming feet.

With the quickening of a TP we landed and he was in awe.  My gift to Harley was this magnificent “OLLERUS” prince style ensemble including the royal boots.

Simba popped in and was much delighted as well.  (I designed and created an amazing Gazebo set up for Simba, but will post pictures of this at a later date.)

We arrived at the Chapel “Houses of Jana ~ Chaton” with much grace and anticipation to mingle among the enchanted guests.

There was a sense of love and friendship in the air while friends found their seats and quietly listened to the music and breathtaking wedding vows pronounced by the Minister, Jana.

Vapor appeared in a spunky and delightful mood:

Ahhhh! The Vapor!

While Slayer appeared in an aurora of mystery and respect:

I captivated dozens upon dozens of luscious pix of the beautiful bride, Simba, but selected this particular photograph to adorn her with florals as beautiful as she.

Her delicious wedding gown is the creation of Celeste Weddings “Sony eLee SAB White” by Vivians Artizar

 It flowed in harmony amid the surrounding gala as she sparkled like a Queen.

You can see here in the photograph a glimpse of Simba’s lovely Maid of Honour, Nurs:

The reception was more exciting than one can imagine with the wedding cake, follies and dancing.  Most especially fun was the tossing of the bouquet:

“If friends were flowers, you would be the perfect rose.

So catch my bouquet, my special friend, hold it close to your heart.

And always remember me, your friend, and we’ll never be apart.”

Since the wedding, I visit Harley & Simba’s chalet often to enjoy games and chatting while we storm up ideas for the business.  Designing stages are still a work in progress, but time will tell where we land!

I hope you enjoyed this segment with the wedding details.  It was an exciting day for me and I was honored to be a part of their special day.

Congratulations Harley & Simba!  Love you!
