One always has to be mindful of money.

[metalcrusher]

Cutting costs without paring down the experience. Another good motto to live by.

Now. I know you're quite the seamstress, Tataru, darling... But would you even want to make your own attire for your wedding?

[seemstressed]

Well if it were to take place here I would have to. I don't particularly trust people who are unfamiliar with Lalafell to be able to fit garments for one.

[glitzandglamour]

You make an outstanding point. I've been fortunate in my own pursuit, but it's taken a fitting or six to get a custom fit right... whether that's for rectangles, or dramatically proportioned robots. You do seem more adept at fitting garments to body types of all kinds!

And your Bonded? Are they similarly in need of your custom sewing?

[seemstressed]

I suppose you could say I've got an eye for it. My bonded are both Hyur...er, Human. They're quite simple to dress.

[metalcrusher]

Ha-ha. I know what Hyur is, beautiful. No worries! You don't have to do much specialty work for humans, do you. When it comes to weddings... You must have it completely made!!

But is there NOTHING you'd wish as a special indulgence for yourself, Tataru-darling? Would your dream wedding be purely cutting costs and making your own attire...?

[seemstressed]

Well if money truly was nothing to worry about...it would be a lie to say I wouldn't indulge. Oh no, I would have a fabulous ceremony with a reception in one of the great halls in Ul'dah...oh, oh! Oh no, even better! A wedding on the beaches of Costa Del Sol. Now that would be incredible!

[metalcrusher]

A BEACH wedding!! Now you're talking INDULGENCE. Absolutely brilliant! Even if I don't know what Ul'dah or Costa Del Sol are... I can envision that it would be a grand affair. So your focus is a location wedding!! Take notes from a lady who has taste, ladies and gentlemen!

Now. The important question. Would you have one outfit for the whole occasion... or an alternate look for your reception??

[seemstressed]

Please Mettaton, I'm sure you know my answer. Alternate looks, naturally.

[glitzandglamour]

As expected. Why pass up on an opportunity to show off as the bride in two ways? Your talents on display, at that. Tataru in her myriad of dazzling dresses, flanked by her two handsome Bonded... A sight for the wistfully imaginative.

[seemstressed]

A sight I could charge for.

[glitzandglamour]

Planning to make even your wedding a moneymaking venture... Truly, you outdo yourself.

[And inspire Mettaton... Thank you, Tataru, for giving Mettaton awful inspiration. That's what we wanted, right. For Mettaton to charge for entrance to his wedding.....]

[seemstressed]

Well it is customary to give the bride and groom a gift on their wedding day. Monetary or otherwise.

[metalcrusher]

It is! If course it is. I knew that. What's a wedding without a token to see the happy couple off, on their newly married life together?

[He did know that. He was talking gift registries a bit ago, after all.]

In essence, your fee's built right into the ritual, darling. How quaint. You could even skip the gifts and ask for money. Offset the costs of your dream espousal.

[seemstressed]

Some gifts can turn a profit. As much as I love strict coin sometimes there are better things.

[metalcrusher]

My my. To receive a gift, only to flip it for money...! That's a dubious tactic, if I've ever heard one. I love it! Wait for the market value to rise and resell it, turning useless collectable into cash. Who knew that weddings could be such a clever method of cash flow?? If only divorces didn't cost a penny!

[seemstressed]

The trick is to marry for love, not money.

[glitzandglamour]

Haha. Of course. Marrying and divorcing for assets... It's still a fascinating thought for a TV drama.
