Wedding Dress Idea #8232: Mermaid
9:50 AM, Wednesday, 7 February, 2007
I'm getting married this year, and I'm going to make my dress...
Mermaid
Beautiful, aquiline, shimmery, watery, elegant and fishy - all words gasped out loud upon sight of Carolyn in the Mermaid wedding dress. A long, sparkly tail in shades of blue is the feature piece of this outfit, with 10,000,000 hand-sewn pearls and diamonds creating a watery effect. Beautiful techicoloured scallop shells are held together with finely woven seaweed in a magnificent brassiere that makes the most of personal assets. Uniquely handcrafted jewellery using the most priceless artefacts from Davy Jones' Locker include delightful fish-head earrings, a lovely jewel-encrusted sea urchin pendant, whimsical seasnake bangles and a sparkling beche de mer bellyring. The hairstyle for this ensemble is long and wet, with flowing locks held in place by specially-trained hermit crabs who just won't let go.
Movement is somewhat limited in the Mermaid wedding dress due to feet being encased in the tail, thus a large motorised clamshell is included in the package for trafficking around the venue. The clamshell is licensed to hold up to four passengers or 350kg making it the perfect form of transport for both bride and groom, along with any relevant attendants, to and from the venue.
Crabs, crayfishies, prawns and cute-coloured-fishes are all represented as live mascots at the event. Due to ethical standards seafood will not be served at this wedding, but guests may take responsibility for the creation of their own sashimi (wasabi and soy sauce will be provided beside the fishtanks). A 'wetting' facility will be made available for the bride at regular intervals where she will be hosed down with seawater in order to maintain the integrity of her outfit, and the hearbeat of her accessories. Special attendants will be employed to catch and reattach any vagrant or wandering seacreatures. No animals will be harmed in the making of this outfit.
"Under the sea, Under the sea! Life is much better, Down where it's wetter, Take it from me!"

What you call weird I call imaginative and funny. Which is more than I can say about your comment. PinkUkulele put a lot of effort into that entry, the least you could do is scratch your head and come up with something slightly wittier.

Well said Yehia. I reckon that you should get onto training those hermit crabs to do unspeakable things to anonymous.

Can guests have specially trained hermit crabs too? I would very much like to have some in MY hair, and to have some refilling my champagne glass.

They are MY hermit crabs. You have ANOTHER wedding and you can have YOUR OWN hermit crabs. Or maybe you could have some turtles? Baby turtles? You just can't be trusted with lovely animals, Katia.
But other people can borrow them if they like. Tori is in charge of training the ninja-hermitcrabs.

You smell.
It is also your fault that I have been singing Under The Sea for the last 24 hours and have an irresistible urge to go out and buy The Little Mermaid.
