Bonus of new office? Decent cafeteria and if you are careful, not very expensive. No restaurants within walking distance, so I have no excuse for skipping lunch.
You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

[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.

What do people usually do? Totally casual or nicer?
I don't know what the usual is but I think you should dress up for an Occasion. And it certainly is an Occasion.

You should take pictures. And any time you are going to take pictures you should (a) look nice but (b) look comfortable. Is there a way for her to do both?
Nice trousers for her? Would she wear fancypants???

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
It's absolutely not silly to dress however makes you happiest.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I wore a new dress and DH wore a shirt, tie, and sports jacket when we eloped. It was a symbolic sort of thing. There was a 24 hour waiting period, so an hour before our appointment, we stopped at a gas station rest room and changed.
I've seen several courthouse weddings, and they've run the gamut, from a white business suit with froufy corsage on one shoulder to a long blue cotton print skirt, borrowed bracelets, new t-shirt and old leather jacket on the bride, and everything from a suit to slacks or jeans with a button-down shirt for the groom.
I'd say whatever makes you both happy, just shined up a little.

Huh.

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.

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.
