At
left, Prince Timotheous Kalamanos (in red) enters the hall in style in a grand
procession. At right, held aloft on his shield for all the world to see,
Prince Timo is crowned King of Ansteorra! VIVAT! VIVAT! VIVAT! This image
provided courtesy of Lord Niklas Vasilevich.
At
left, King Timotheous listens closely to Master Edwin's accounting
of the dowry proposed to accompany the King's wedding to Princess Allyson.
One stipulation was that Her Highnesses children of a previous marriage would
retain rights to the throne. His Majesty thought momentarily, but
concluded that they were indeed pretty cute and agreed to the terms. On the right, a look at part of the dowry that was carried in by several individuals.
Of course, these were mere trinkets compared to the Princess herself and rumor
has it that the King would have wed Her for much less.
To
the left, the Princess
went unseen as she entered in the procession, being revealed only at the moment
of her marriage. On the right, King Timo and Princess Allyson speak Their wedding vows before the
entire populace.
At
left, The Royal Prince Niko and Princess Lexxy
bear the rings for the ceremony. These two were too cute for the camera to capture
and performed their duties perfectly throughout this ceremony. On the right, Princess Allyson places the ring on King
Timotheous' finger as the wedding
is almost complete.
King Timo crowns Allyson Queen of Ansteorra
and the land is once again whole. The image on the right provided by Lord
Caelin on Andrede.
To
the left, sealed with a kiss. VIVAT REX! VIVAT REGINA! On the right, the Lions
have returned to court to relinquish the Great Sword of State to it's rightful
place.
On
the left, the members of the Chivalry individually renew their vows of fealty
to the Ansteorran crown. On the right, the landed nobility also swears their
fealty individually. Baron Galen and Baroness Allessandra, Lord & Lady Elfsea
are seen here with hands upon the Great Sword of State as they reaffirm their
oaths to the crown. (By the way, those fabulous cloaks were created by Lady
Siobhan inghean Eoghain ui Neill.)
Other
peers of the realm and Great Officers of state give their fealty. On the right,
members of the Order of the White scarf give their fealty. Seated in
the foreground is Celestine of the Steppes who silently heralded (signed) the entire court without a break.
What a marvelous service! VIVAT!
On
the left, as one of Their Majesties first acts, the coronets are placed on Earl
Alaric Drake and Countess Kayleigh Drake. Vivat! At right, Countess Kayleigh
joins the ranks of the Ladies of the Rose. Starting on the left, there is Duchess
Alisha (who traveled all the way from Caid (California) to be here). Next to
her is Countess Valeria, Duchess Larissa and Countess Margarett. On the right
is Countess Octavia, Countess Sara and Countess Tessa.
