Wedding Preparations

Captain's Log: Earth date May 29, 2008. Tomorrow is the big day! The happy couple, their best men Opus & Roscoe, their wedding planner, Sassy, and flower girl MoMo, are flying with Starfleet shuttles to Voyager. The whole Voyager crew is busy preparing for the wedding.

Neelix of course is in charge of the food buffet and Commander Tuvok is helping him since the crew found out Tuvok has a flair for food!

And thanks to our wedding planner Sassy we have the most beautiful table settings!

Then Captain Kathryn Janeway is interrupted by a chirp from Seven's badge: "Seven to Janeway. -- Janeway here. Yes, Seven? -- Our first guests are on their way, Captain. Can you come to Astrometrics?" Janeway smiles a little and says, "we are on our way, Seven! Janeway out."

And half the crew follows Janeway to the Astrometric Lab...

A few minutes later they docked and Captain Janeway and Seven of Nine hurry to the shuttle bays to meet their guests. The shuttle bay door hisses open, and Janeway arrives to welcome Karl and Ruis aboard Voyager.

In the other shuttle bay Seven of Nine welcomes Opus & Roscoe and Sassy & MoMo.

At the last moment the respective families of the couple decided to beam to Voyager instead of taking a shuttle. And there also materialized extra bottles of The Cat Realms house wine "Domaine Le Royaume De Chat" from 1996, Lizquila Cuervo Especial and Dom Niptignon.

And also the other guests were beamed on board. At request of their Mom's and Dad's the dogs came separate from the cats, to 'just in case' not mix the species, hahahahahahahahaha.

Captain's Log, Supplemental. Seven of Nine has installed full automatic litterboxes in the guest quarters. Later tonight Tom and Ensign Kim have brought all our guests to their quarters. At 11 PM also the J-Family arrived, Mr. Neelix gave them a light snack before they headed to their quarters. Now, a good night of sleep is all we need for tomorrow!

Kathryn Janeway, Personal Log. For one night I'll stay in a guest quarter and allowed Karl and Ruis in the Captain's quarters. I have asked Q to change it into a honeymoon suite again -- red roses, lit candles surrounding a bed of red satin sheets with two heart-shaped pillows, dimmed lights and the windows unshaded to reveal the stars.

The night is young, and the sheets are satin. We see you tomorrow!!
