FAN SUBMITTED LETTERS~!

Dearest friends,

I would be delighted to come to your wedding, as long as there is cupcakes, but I will rest assured that seeing as Pinkie and Cheese are planning this event, there will certainly be such delicacies. I would also like to help in any way possible to plan for this joyous occasion. If you need any help, which I don't think you will, but if you do, then I would be very happy to lend a hoof or two.

Best wishes and lots of love

~Flutterby Twinkle

Dear Pinkie Pie and Sombra,

It sounds like a wonderful occasion to celebrate, and I'd love to attend. I think I can make it to Ponyville at that time as well, which is a bonus! I needed to have a splash of inspiration from a rustically charming town for one of my characters as well. And I do believe it was you, Pinkie Pie, at one point that gave me inspiration to draw my first comic. Though it was very basic at the time, you were that spark that let me start and that keeps surging me forwards to greater heights. In memory of that, I'm attending, to give you my best wishes of a long and happy life with Sombra. He's quite handsome, and you're incredibly lucky to have him, if I do say so myself!

Sincerely,

Ink Dreams

Dear Pinkie and Sombra,

I would love to come. You have always been a friend to me, Vinyl and the rest of Ponyville Radio. I am excited to hear you have found your true love. And Sombra, I may not have met you yet but I can tell you are a good stallion. I will tell you this after the wedding but treat her right. If you don't I will blast you with a sonic wave so strong you will see the passing of the sun and moon. That being said we should hang out some time after the Honeymoon so I can get to know the stallion that won the heart of the mare I see as a sister in all but blood. I'll see you two at the wedding so good bye for now.

Sonic Bass (AKA dj-pon3fan)

Dear Pinkie and Sombra,

I'm honored to be invited for a momentous occasion where you shall be joined together, happiness that will follow you for the rest of your lives. If you need someone to arrange a musical after party, feel free to contact me.

Sincerely,

ChaoticLightning

Dear Pinkamena Pie and Sombra,

I will would be most ecstatic indeed to attend your wedding, I haven't been to one since... that one on Canterlot I think, when Queen Chrysalis crashed the event, and it has been too long since I stepped out of my lab here at the school, plus, it'll be good to see Twilight again. Either way, expect me to be in attendance.

Sincerely,

Biological Deoxy Chemistry (Bio Chem), head of Science at P.C.S.G.U.

Dear Pinkie Pie and Sombra,

Well, I've seen you two occasionally and I was wondering when you'd finally agree to tie the knot. I will gladly attend the wedding and after party, and I wish you all a long and happy marriage. I hope that you two will truly be together "Until death do you part."

Sincerely,

Joseph (Josh) Hooves.

P.S. If you need a foalsitter for your kids (assuming you ever have any), feel free to stop by my office. Just ask The Cakes, they'll know what I'm talking about.

Dear Pinkie and Sombra,

I would to love to come to your marriage after all it you who hold all my birthday. And it was you who helped me after my mother passing. So I will be there .

Sincerely,

dark starfox 64

ps. you still haven't tell me what did to my scythe

Dear Pinkie

Ohmagurd!! I'm sooooo happy for you! I would love to come instantly but Bionic Force is still being a killjoy and trotted us into a dragons den on purpose, so we couldn't. After promising to let him raid Twilight's laboratory I finally got him to fight with us. We're on our way right now! I'll be sure to find Soul and bring her too.

Since we have to pass through a few towns would you like any souvenirs?

With excitement

Spirit Shift

P.S

Any cute bridesmaids? Besides your friends, I mean.

-Blazing Notes

Letter from Luna

Huzzah!

We have been clamoring for thy union for some moons now, and We would be delighted to attend! We would even be willing to share a blessing with thee, and mayhaps one for thy unborn foal. Shouldst thou need any assisstance, We would be glad to provide you with either worker ponies or Our own hooves. A small share of the Treasury of the Crown, should it prove necessary, shall be at thy disposal. We look forward to witnessing the service, and We shall most certainly prepare a special Celebration of the Stars for thee.

Best of wishes,

Thy Princess of the Night, Mistress of the Stars, Queen of the Moon, Lady of War, Lunar Diarch,

Princess Luna Selene Nyx

Dear Pinkie and Sombra,

I must say that as fantastical as this sounds, what with the food, the dancing and the meeting new ponies, I'm afraid I just can't make the effort to come all that way. It's too cold up here for a trip like that and we can't focus our resources on anything but keeping warm and safe.
I do however, wish the best that can be wished to you and your endeavors in the world of marriage.

Now, I'm gonna see if putting this envelope in the bedside drawer I found the invitation in will send it back.

Til lykke med dagen, bursdagspike!

P.S. It didn't work. I'll just have to send it the old fashioned way when the courier comes around next summer. I'm running out of ink, so I have to end it now.

Dear Pinkie and Sombra,

Between the pranks I've succumbed to courtesy of the former and what has so graciously blossomed between the two of you, I'm honored that you would actually invite me to this momentous occasion. I've not much to offer for your wonderful romance other than my attendance to make sure you tie the knot completely (And perhaps some music if I manage to get some more practice in). Of course, this shall be the first wedding I've attended in a long while, so I hope you'll forgive me if I tend to make things awkward.

I do hope that your time together post-marriage will not be met with any severe obstacles save for the eventual future of parenthood. You two complete each other so nicely, that it would be such a shame to see something fade away so quickly.

Sombra, I hope to get to know you a little more as a stallion who has made an amazing impact on Ponyville.

Pinkie, I hope to get to know you a little less as a prankster from here on out.

In conclusion, you have both my gratitude for the invitation, and my best wishes for your future.

Sincerely Yours,

Dirty Bit

P.S: I hope you disregard my offer for music; my experience with the violin is an awful one.

For Sombra's eyes only.

Dear Sombra,

I am honored to receive an invitation to your wedding, but I am afraid I will be unable to attend. A diplomat's work is never done, and I will be in Griffonia during the celebration. I truly wish I could be in attendance, but such is the price of joining the Canterlot nobility. Royal duties must come first.

Sombra, do not allow Pinkie Pie to read this letter without speaking to her first. If I know her as well as I think I do, then she would do everything in her power to make sure each and every one of her friends attends her wedding. I imagine that she would be devastated to hear that even one of her friends will not be able to make it. Forgive my selfishness, but I ask that you gently let her know that I will not be there for the wedding.

Be sure to take as many pictures as you can. I'll want to hear all about it when I return. I wish you two the greatest happiness life has offer, and be sure to wish the lovely bride a happy birthday for me.

Sincerely yours,

Olive Branch

To the happy couple

I'll be glad to come! I would also love to provide entertainment. As a changeling, I can provide a one-pony zoo, caricature artist, dramatic theater, and jester services, all by myself. So long as you have some affectionate friends at the reception, I'd be glad to provide any or all of my services free of charge.

Best wishes, Spark Trace

Pinkie, when I first came to Ponyville I didn't know what to think of you. I thought you were random, crazy, and a bit off. But I now know you're so much more than that. You're kind and funny, sweet and loving, and all you want is to see your friends smile and be happy. I can't ever thank you enough for everything you've done for me, for the friendship you've given me. I would be honored to attend your birthday/wedding and I eagerly look forward to it.

Sombra, I may not know you well, but if Pinkie loves you as much as I think she does, then you must really be something special. I cannot express how lucky you are to have somepony like her for a wife, and I wish both of you all the happiness in the world. I look forward to meeting you at what I expect to be one incredible wedding.

Professor Tacitus

Dearest Cousin Sombra and Miss Pinkie,

Thank you very much for the invitation to your wedding! Congratulations! I shall attend this momentous occasion, but I have one question: Will there be shrimp? I am allergic to shrimp, it causes me to writhe on the floor and die. Thank you once more,

~Serpent


Dear Pinkie and Sombra,

Sweetie Belle says we shouldn't write a letter since we live in the same town, but I just wanted to write to you guys anyway! I'm so excited to see you two get married! And is it true we get to be your flower girls? Awesome!

Sincerely, Scootaloo

Dear Pinkie and Sombra,

Wow, this is so exciting! I knew you two loved each other, but I didn't know you'd get married! Maybe the girls and I are great matchmakers! Oh, and be ready to get an awesome wedding gift from the Crusaders. Don't worry, it's nothing explosive or crazy like that, Sombra. I think you'll be surprised by it, but in a good way!

Sincerely, Apple Bloom

Dear Pinkie and Sombra,

Don't listen to Scootaloo! Writing a letter was my idea, not hers! It's supposed to be polite to respond to letters and invitations, but she didn't know that! Anyway, did either of the girls tell you about our wedding gift? It's nothing weird, I promise!

Sincerely, Sweetie Belle

P.S. Rarity told me the dress she has for Pinkie is supposed to be very pretty! I can't wait to see it!

Dear Pinkie Pie,

I'm glad to see that Sombra finally stepped up and asked you to marry him. Keep him in line, will you? I may be a Captain, but even I have my limits.

Sincerely, Captain Shining Armor of the Crystal Empire

Dear Pinkie Pie and Sombra,

I'm so ecstatic to see that you two are getting married! Pinkie, I can't wait to see how beautiful you look when you walk down the aisle! Believe me, it's something you'll never forget.

Sombra, I know we had our differences, but in the end, I am happy to see that you're getting married to the mare of your dreams. I can see how much you two love each other, and I wish you both many years together. Also, I may just be speculating, but am I right to assume that you two have a foal on the way? I suppose it takes one expecting couple to know another.

Sincerely, Princess Cadence

P.S. Don't tell Twilight! I want to surprise her!

Dear Pinkie and Sombra,

Wow, I just got the invitation! That's weird, since I don't have a mailbox... Oh, well! Anyway, I'm so excited to plan this wedding! Hopefully, everypony will be ready to celebrate the birth-wedding of the bride! Whoa, that's a weird name...

Anyway, Sombra, don't you worry, I made sure to order foods that are OK for Pinkie to eat since she's pregnant. Oh, wait, you didn't tell me about that yet, did you? Oh, well, better that we both know that I know!

Sincerely, Cheese Sandwich

P.S. Pinkie's gonna be a mom! Whoo-hoo!

Dear Pinkie and Sombra,

Pinkie, your father and I are both very excited to attend your wedding. My daughter, getting married... Oh, sorry for the teardrops, I'm just being a mom... Anyway, I can't wait until we give you your wedding gifts! You're going to love them, both of you!

Sincerely, your mother and future mother-in-law

P.S. Sombra, I'll be sure to brief you on the phases later on... They can be quite a hoofful when you don't know what to do.

Dear Pinkie and Sombra,

Finally!

-Discord

P.S. I'm Fluttershy's plus one.

Dear Pinkie Pie and Sombra,

My sister and I are both very flattered to have received your invitation to your wedding. I'll make sure that the night sky is perfect for your evening together.

Sincerely, Princess Luna

P.S. By the way, Sombra you left your crown at the castle the last time you two were here. And I really don't want to know.

Dear Pinkie and Sombra,

Wow, another wedding after ours! That's super exciting! I was really happy to find out you two are getting are house of your own now... Kind of reminds me of Octy and me. Anyway, I'm sure I'll be there, and Octy, too!

Sincerely, Minuette & Octavia Melody

P.S. Maybe you could spare room for a plus one? I hope that you don't mind fillies being at the wedding.

Dear Pinkie Pie and Sombra,

Whoa, Pinkie Pie invited me? Man, I never thought I'd get to see the coolest party pony again! And since you're marrying Sombra, then he must be a pretty cool guy, too, right? Can't wait to go there with my Wonderbuddies!

Sincerely, Soarin

P.S. Is Rainbow Dash gonna be there?

Dear Pinkie Pie,

Why'd you invite me to your wedding? I thought you didn't like me, you weirdo.

-Gilda

Dear Miss Pie and Mister Sombra,

I'm rather surprised to receive an invitation from the Element of Laughter herself, though it'd be rude of me to refuse such an invitation. Myself and Fleur will be sure to attend.

Sincerely, Fancy Pants

P.S. I hear that Rarity is designing your dress. I look forward to seeing it!

Dear Pinkie Pie,

Who are you?!

-Photo Finish

Dear Pinkie Pie and Sombra,

Did you invite me because I met you during a visit to the Crystal Empire? Well, I guess I'll attend...

-Flash Sentry

P.S. Is Princess Twilight going to be there? Duh, it's her castle your having the wedding at.

Dear Pinkie Pie and Sombra,

The Great and Powerful Trixie graciously accepts your invitation to your wedding and would perhaps even be kind enough to perform Trixie's tricks for you.

Sincerely, the Great and Powerful Trixie

P.S. Is there going to be peanut butter and crackers?

P.S.S. I heard about your fiance. Sombra sounds pretty cool.

P.S.S.S. Do you mind if I bring a date? He's a bit sour he didn't get an invitation. Says it had something to do with Rarity or something like that.

Author's Notes:

And thus concludes Meeting the Family~! If your letter hasn't been added, it will be added later, I assure you! Be sure to look out for the next couple of installments for the SombraPie saga!
