My Dear Pinkamina,

Oh how I wish you could have seen the wedding. It was simply amazing. Rarity outdid herself making the dresses for both of the mares. While some friendly ribbing was said about one of them wearing a suit, they both wore their dresses with a grace that even Rarity was awestruck at. I'm sure you know what it takes to make her stay quiet, but she actually broke down in tears as they walked down the aisle.

Scootaloo's dress was an almost scandalous affair. Form fitting to show off her acrobat's physique, it was the same color as Rainbow Dash's pelt. Dash was rather embarrassed by this, blushing the entire time. Scoots didn't care, and wore her bit of hero-worship with pride. Besides, the blue set off her mulberry mane and orange wings like a summer sunset. That was also the only time anyone ever accused her of looking "Filly". Well, without losing teeth, that is.

Sweetie Bell, on the other hoof, has always had her sister's grace and beauty. Having taken up her career as a singer, she was used to dressing well and making the most out of her appearance. Rarity labored for a month to find the gems, and crafted what could only be considered her greatest creation. Made entirely of enchanted silversilk, and woven with a massive fortune's worth of diamonds, it shimmered like living water. She was a sterling silver goddess as she moved, and she knew how to make every movement count. Is it any wonder that her last album went triple platinum?

We wanted all the old gang to be together, so we held the ceremony underneath Fluttershy's branches. I could feel her joy at this, and was happy we made the choice. Flowers of every type grew there, and the birds all sang a chorus as the happy couple made their debut. I get the feeling that despite her condition, Fluttershy still holds sway over her animal friends. I haven't seen a performance like that since she orchestrated her last Sun Festival.

Rainbow Dash escorted Scootaloo down the aisle, looking quite dashing in her uniform, no pun intended. Rarity escorted Sweetie Bell, and she cried the entire time. In fact most of the mares were crying, and even Big Macintosh looked kinda misty eyed. Applebloom almost showed up the two brides, however. Her red mane was styled by Rarity, and the amazing fall colors of her dress made her look like a living flame. I'm pretty sure she will be getting quite a few visits from suitors in the near future.

The ceremony was a simple one, since the couple had already been together and said all that needed saying years before. They exchanged their vows, professed their love, and then there was the most tender kiss I have ever seen. Bah, they even had me crying by time it was done. I'm turning into an old softy in my advanced age.

It made my heart leap, and brought back all the memories of my years with you. I saw again your smiling face, and this time it did make me happy. I remembered our own wedding, Twilight practically stuttering the ceremony after we burst into her office at 4am and demanded we be wed. No child of ours was gonna be born out of wedlock. I never cared myself, but you were such a traditionalist back then. Crazy Random Pinkie, actually had wanted to follow tradition. Of course, you still had to write those crazy vows. Gah, they were so corny.

But I am getting off track. The party. Oh, YES! The party was amazing. I swear that little Pinkie was channeling your spirit, and about a dozen cups of coffee that day. She lived up to your name again, throwing a party that lasted a whole two days. All of Ponyville attended, and we had to party in shifts. Ponies would pass out, then get up hours later to dance and party some more. And during the entire thing, I don't think little Pinkie slept a minute. She was everywhere at once, and sometimes it seemed more than one place at a time. Where she found the time to make so much food, or the energy to keep going we will probably never know.

Finally after the second day, she fell asleep, cake in her hair and holding a bunch of balloons. We took that as the sign to wrap things up, and the party wound down. She slept all day and we cleaned the party up as the newlyweds were taken off to their honeymoon. I booked them a week stay at that resort I visited the first night I arrived. Apparently its rather expensive and exclusive, when you aren't just teleporting in at 2am and helping yourself to the facilities. Oopsie!

There is one spot of sad news however. I found out afterwards the reason for Pinkie's manic energy. Apparently she had overheard her parents talking about you, and it finally came out that you weren't coming back. She cried at first, and they had to explain about the whole death and cycle of life thing. But she perked up afterwards, and told them she was going to honor your memory by becoming the best party pony in all Equestria, just like her Grammy Pie. I love that little filly so much. It's like seeing a little piece of you come back to us. I look at her, and I see you, and I no longer have any trouble smiling and laughing. I'm doing it honey, I just keep laughing, just like you asked me to.

Love and laughter,

Your Silly Draxy
