A very special cocktail

The beautiful gardens that would host the cocktail party for more than five hundred guests were extensively decorated, and all kinds of food and drinks were served. At that moment, neither the bride nor her family members were wearing their outfits that they would later wear at the ceremony; they were wearing formal dresses and suits but more comfortable given the humid heat that it was at that time of the morning.

The only poor people who had to go with their equal and special suits were the witnesses, who were neither more nor less than the cadets and companions of Aeneas, Horus and Antis, and some of the other pilots had also been invited to that group; they were the closers to the colonel. The girls in the group who would act as bridesmaids were lucky enough to have a more comfortable but equally elegant outfit for that first part of the day.
