Coffee and Conversation with the #RomanceGems

It's time for Coffee and Conversation with the Romance Gems! So, grab a cup of your favorite beverage and join us for some fun. This month's topic is: A GAME! Something different this month!

The cast of the last show you watched is planning your wedding. Tell us who is planning and what your wedding will be like. Let’s have some fun!

“I've been watching season 6 of Once Upon A Time. (For like the millionth time) And there's actually a wedding in that season. So...if the characters from this show were planning my wedding, I'm certain it would be a fairytale ordeal, with a gown made by the fairies, knights as the groomsmen, and singing!!!” ~ Kara O’Neal

“I haven’t watched TV in years, but I tuned into Bridgerton because I’d met Julia Quinn years ago and read and loved the entire series. So I guess Violet Bridgerton is planning my wedding, and it will be the event of the century. Live music (no, not the Smythe-Smith quartet!) in the ballroom at one of the leading homes in London. Everyone will be decked out in their finest formal wear. Anyone who is anyone in the ton will be in attendance (though I’d leave Cressida Cowper off the list if I didn’t think it would cause an uproar).” ~ Kari Lemor

Liz Flaherty's Wedding

“I am watching the Kelly Clarkson Show right now. I've never seen it before, but  someone else arranged some beautiful flowers and another gentleman is featuring some wonderful-looking  gumbo. I think my wedding is going to be a lot of laughs and the food's going to be great, which sounds like a harbinger of all things good! (I made up the beach part)” ~ Liz Flaherty

“The last show I watched was The Dead Files, so I guess I’ll have a spooky haunted wedding! The psychics will keep telling me what all my nosy deceased relatives are saying while the cops will be keeping my current relatives in line. It’ll be fun for all!” ~ Laura Hunsaker

“My wedding would be planned by the cast of Jimmy Kimmel Live. Naturally, we’d have the music played by Cleto and the Cletones. That’s where the “normal” would end. Guillermo would be dressed in a flower girl’s gown and sprinkle Skittles across the stage. Jimmy would be dressed in a judge’s black gown with a white curly wig on his head. He’d be standing in front of a trellis decorated with wilted flowers and be reading from a Marvel comic. The vows would be to refrain from murdering each other on the honeymoon to get on a murder porn tv show.” ~ Bonnie Edwards  

“Going to get married to my firefighter, at the firehouse, among all our firefighting friends from the Chicago Fire department. The firefighter’s union rep is walking me down the aisle to my future husband and the fire department chaplain is waiting at the altar. I am in my white dress, the groom and the entire fire department are in their firefighting gear. We say our vows and the chaplain says “you may kiss the bride.” Our kiss is interrupted by the bells and whistles, everyone heads to the firetruck and ambulance and they are on their way to the next call.” ~ Constance Bretes

“Last night I watched the Hallmark Movie, Chasing Waterfalls. Loved it.  The leading man, Christopher Russell is the perfect groom. I'm a cougar and 6ft. 2in, 38year old, Russell, fits the bill for this 5ft.10 woman. That smile. That voice.

“A waterfall as the setting…tranquil.., private... well for the most part private. The movie was filmed in Seattle and British Columbia, two of my favorites for their breathtaking views.

“Wedding planners? The Married at First sight Australia experts: John Aiken, Mel Schiling and Dr. Trisha Stafford. Their reception venues are the best.

“Yes, I’m all for chasing waterfalls.” ~ Marcia King-Gamble

“I've no doubt my wedding will be one Helluva celebration since it's being planned by the cast of Lucifer! My wedding cake will be devils food, of course, topped with icing so fluffy it must be a Heavenly cloud. We'll dance to CCR's I Put a Spell on You and Devil in the Blue Dress and finish off the night with a downright devil of a honeymoon.” ~ Nancy Fraser

“The last show I watched was Loki, which is a new Marvel show. Loki is a shapeshifting prankster and god who is always up to mischief. Sometimes he’s the villain, but always a sympathetic one. His brother is Thor, and who wants to live up to that? Loki is played by Tom Hiddleston who seems to be both a sweetheart and funny in real life, so the wedding would definitely be unforgettable, fun, and off-beat. Only problem would be, it would be hard to concentrate on my groom with Tom Hiddleston there! He looks good in anything and oozes sex appeal.” ~ M.J. Schiller

“I’m binge-watching True Blood again after all these years and loving it! BUT it does make for a rather bizarre wedding. Of course, the reception would be at Merlotte’s – I do enjoy a great local diner/watering hole. Maid of Honor and Best Man – Sookie Stackhouse and Bill Compton. Bridesmaids – Tara, Arlene, and vampire Jessica. Vamp fashionista Pam MUST help me buy my wedding gown and shoes! Jason Stackhouse is not invited, because he’s nothin’ but trouble. LaFayette oversees all food, decorations, and music. And…I’m marrying Eric Northman, the Nordic vampire owner of Fangtasia. Absolutely. No questions asked. (Sorry Mr. H. hahaha)” ~ Kathryn Hills
