Thank you to the Barony of Vatavia; for a beautiful site, helping hands, delicious foods, and the hospitality they are well known for. Thank you to our friends and family for traveling to witness this, and for helping in so many ways. Thank you to Our royal household, for making everything seem so very smooth and easily taken care of. Thank you to Selene, who made Our presence known through their words. Thank you especially to my friend Agamemnon Rex for granting this rare and amazing opportunity to serve the kingdom I love. -Marie, Regina Calontir

* Now that I have had some time to recover, I wanted to share my huge gratitude that I have for my kitchen help and the wonderful servers who volunteered to help me with Coronation Feast! You all were the reason that everything turned out so well and I wouldn't have been physically able to get it done without you, Thank You!!! -Margaret MacKenzie, Feast Steward
