[Because that's all she wanted. For him to have the day he pictured and deserved to have, even if she would have been happy with a trip to the courthouse or up to Atlantic City.]
Now all we have to do is party. Nothing left to stress about.
[They will! And head back to their table for a little bit to eat, before starting to make the rounds. They start with the parents table, and Lindsay's father immediately makes his displeasure known.
"Certainly couldn't keep things simple, could you, kitten?"
Lindsay tenses. Boy does she hate that nickname.]
Unfortunately, I can't control the vampires, Dad. I can only kill them.
[She enjoys the flinch on his face before he goes back to his phone. Lindsay shakes her head, before glancing over to her sister and her husband.]
Gerry. Nice to see you again. Glad you could make it.
[Lindsay does catch her sister's discomfort and isn't sure how to address it. She doesn't know if she should call it out or let it go, so for new she just stays in the conversation.]
It's a great city. If you have the time you should stick around. The Quarter especially is great. A lot of historical buildings and stories.
[She doesn't know Gerry's feelings on that but she knows Chelsea always tended to dig into more of their mother's historical work. Maybe it's an interest.]
( Chelsea lets go of her husband's hand, it'd been squeezed just a little too hard, but she gives a small smile when she looks in her direction. She also waves. )
Beck's cousin, Cami, the vampire. Just how many vampires are at this wedding?
("Not including the ones that crashed," Gerry says, like an asshole. )
[Lindsay is not going to out all of them unless they want to be outed. She's especially not going to point her in the direction of someone like Klaus.]
Not all vampires are created equal.
[Her father snorts from the opposite corner of the table. "Sounds like all organizations are going woke these days."
Lindsay presses her lips together but chooses to ignore it.]
I can find another tour guide if you'd rather have a non-vampire option.
No, I trust your suggestions. You live here. And you wouldn't have people here if you didn't trust them. So I trust them. So, we should all trust them.

( Who were happy to.
"Glad you remembered our address, figuratively,"Gerry says, raising a champagne glass for her. "Great excuse to see Naulins, though, right, Chels?"
Chelsea shifts, uncomfortably, trying to hide behind her smile.
"We're both happy to be here. Really." And while the attack did bring up old memories, it did warm her heart that people all did step in right away. )
We are happy to have you here.

( She caught snippets of things considering her sister's guest list, but she's also trying to keep it light.
Gerry seems to not listen to his wife's question. Probably purposefully. )
I would like to get a closer eye on all the local color, building, ordinances.

Cami's a great tour guide and make sure you stay safe.

Do you want me to introduce you?
[Cami seems to be parting ways with her uncle and they have a small window before Cami's husband swoops in to steal her attention.]
