In the end, Uchiha Byakuya chose a black suit that was both the most comfortable and also best fitting. Black just so happened to be Byakuya's favorite color or shade as well.
At that moment, Byakuya and Yoshimura Eto stood side by side, looking like a prince and princess straight out of a fairy tale, radiantly dazzling.
And luckily the shop staff captured this deeply meaningful moment for them.
Yoshimura Kuzen simply watched from the side the entire time, barely saying a word.
But for him, just being able to personally witness this scene was already something that brought him a great sense of comfort and joy.
"Dad, come take a picture with us too!"
At that moment, Eto suddenly pulled Yoshimura Kuzen over.
"..."
The latter looked momentarily surprised, then a more gentle and kindly smile appeared on his face.
Yoshimura Kuzen always wore suits anyway, so standing next to Byakuya and Eto for a photo didn't feel out of place at all.
"Click-"
The shop staff took many photos for them in rapid succession.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Mayu, Suzuya Juuzou, Yasuhisa Kurona, and Yasuhisa Nashiro were all having the time of their lives.
The shop staff didn't dare stop them and simply let them do whatever they pleased.
At this point, Mayu had already put on a child-sized wedding dress.
She had always truly loved beautiful things, especially anything that made her look prettier, so she adored wedding dresses.
"Juuzou, why are you just standing there? Hurry and put on a wedding dress-oh wait, I mean a tuxedo!"
Seeing Juuzou still standing around dazed, Mayu immediately reminded him.
Kurona and Nashiro had already tried on their favorite wedding dresses, and the two of them even asked the shop staff to take some photos for them together.
Yes, just the two girls.
After all, the bond between this pair of twin sisters had always taken priority to any other sort of affection.
"So pretty. They both look so beautiful in wedding dresses."
At that moment, Uruka Minami looked at Kurona and Nashiro and sighed in admiration.
"..."
Arima Kishou was silent for a moment, then said, "Aren't you going to try one on? I feel like you'd really enjoy it."
Hearing that, Minami suddenly looked flustered. "Ah, um… I feel like…"
But she quickly composed herself and nodded firmly. "Mm!"
At this point, what was there to be shy about?
Minami had already chosen the wedding dress she liked. Without saying another word, she went ahead and selected that one.
Then, standing in front of the mirror, Minami suddenly felt a strange sense of wonder.
Before this, she had never even dared to imagine herself, a ghoul girl, wearing such a beautiful wedding dress like a human girl would.
Arima himself had also changed into a sharp black suit.
With the help of the shop staff, they took many photos together.
Once the wedding attire was chosen, it was time to select the wedding venue.
But really, there was no need to pick as Tsukiyama Mirumo had already arranged everything.
The largest hotel under the Tsukiyama Group's name, which also happened to be the most luxurious hotel in all of Tokyo was chosen.
When the time came, the entire building would be reserved solely for their wedding.
Of course, there would be a lot of people attending.
Besides everyone from the "Anteiku" group, there would also be some familiar faces from the TSC, such as Akihiro Kanou, Marude Itsuki, and the Mado family; Mado Kasuka, Mado Kureo and their daughter Mado Akira.
And of course, there were also people like Washuu Nimura, Kamishiro Rize, and Washuu Yoshitoki, among others.
Byakuya and Eto refused all gifts. They didn't want any superficial formalities and just for everyone to come and enjoy themselves to the fullest.
On the day of the wedding.
Kirishima Hikari helped Eto apply a light layer of makeup.
"All done. Eto-san, right now you're the most beautiful bride in the whole world."
Hikari admired her own work as she smiled and praised.
"Thank you, Kirishima-san."
Looking at herself in the mirror, a smile appeared on Eto's face. Clearly, she was more than satisfied with how she looked right now.
On Byakuya's side, someone had also helped tidy him up carefully.
There weren't many complicated steps involved with him and soon, Byakuya and Eto walked into the banquet hall together.
Every table was piled with all kinds of food and wine. Some certain people were already drunk as well.
"Uta, you're partying with me till dawn tonight!"
At this moment, Yomo Renji snatched Uta's wine glass from the latter's hand and downed it in one gulp.
His tolerance was obviously pretty poor, after just a few glasses, he was already this drunk.
This was Uta's first time seeing Yomo Renji drunk, and his expression looked like he'd just made a shocking discovery.
Off to the side, Koma Enji and Irimi Kaya were having a drinking contest.
"Didn't you brag about your drinking skills? Today I'll see who goes down first!"
As she spoke, Irimi Kaya poured a glass down her throat.
"Who's afraid of who? There's no way I'm losing to you."
Koma Enji replied with full confidence.
As longtime "rivals," the two of them were especially competitive about things like this.
And both of them were already tipsy, making them even easier to provoke than usual.
Basically, it turned into one glass after another being poured into their stomachs.
"Would you like something to drink? Wine, or coffee?"
At that moment, Arima asked Minami.
"I think I'll stick with coffee. I'm not very good at drinking."
Minami replied.
"Alright."
Arima poured a cup of coffee for Minami, then poured one for himself as well.
Looking at the coffee in front of her, then glancing at the alcohol on the side, Minami suddenly became curious as to what Kishou would be like if he got drunk.
Normally, Kishou was extremely serious, he hardly ever showed any emotional fluctuations.
So she was curious whether a drunk Kishou would be a completely different person. Like, say, Yomo-san.
"Um… Kishou, can you drink alcohol?"
Minami couldn't help but ask.
"No. Drinking makes my mind unclear, so I tend to avoid don't drink."
Arima calmly explained.
"Oh… okay…"
Minami sounded slightly disappointed.
But she had picked up on something important, based on what Kishou just said, he probably had a very low tolerance and would end up like Yomo Renji once he was drunk: showing a totally different side.
That only made her more curious. If the opportunity came up later, she'd definitely try it out.
Of course, today's main characters were Byakuya and Eto.
But right now, they were just naturally sitting with everyone, enjoying good food and wine together.
There were none of those long-winded and obnoxious procedures, just having fun was all that mattered today.
As the night grew late, many people at the venue had drunk themselves into unconsciousness, collapsing on the spot. Those who hadn't drunk, or hadn't gotten drunk, carried them back.
Byakuya and Eto had also returned to their own home.
Eto had already changed out of her wedding dress. Holding a towel, she was just about to enter the bathroom.
Just then however, she turned back toward Byakuya with a subtly meaningful smile, the corners of her lips slightly lifted.
"Time to get down to the real business~"
....
Author's Note: Honestly, I don't really know why ghouls can drink alcohol either, but in the original story, when Kaneki Ken and Kirishima Touka got married, everyone from Anteiku could drink.
