Another One Bites The Dust
Hear Ye, Hear Ye! On the Last Day of the Old Year, his Royal Mightiness Prince Amit of York (New) proposed to Sonali Gokhale, a kindergarten teacher whose demure nature and wholesome beauty distinguish her from past royals (see related story). In accepting the Prince's handwritten proposal, the soon-to-be princess left behind a trail of broken Maharastran hearts and a restaurant bill of $74.12. The fairy tale proposal unfolded in a Thai Restaurant, with the charming prince charming the vegetarian Atlanta teacher over Moo Satay and Green Curry with Tofu (see related story). The prince, an ardent patron of romantic-era Hollywood films, was keen on a proposal atop the Empire State Building (see related story), but the petite princess, hailing from the South (US and India), was not a fan of the cold.
In keeping with Atlanta tradition, a party was planned for the Royal Couple at the Nebuchadnezzar Palace (photo). However, due to unforseen circumstances (see details), the venue was later shifted to the Grand Palace de Midtown (photo). Party regulars will remember this location as the venue for another stately wedding party last year: his Majesty Sir Alok, the General of Electric (see media coverage).
As special friends of Lady Sonali (that's "Her Majesty" to you), you are cordially invited to join us at the Grand Palace for an evening of fun, frolic and debauchery. The prince will fly in from his Northern Palace in York for the occasion.Electronic RSVP is required to ensure table-settings and optimal resource allocation. To RSVP, please Add a comment with your name below. It would be appreciated if you could provide an estimated time of arrival and approximate value of gift.

Amazing news about Sonali and Amit! I will be there, but only for a couple of hours. Estimated time of arrival will be 7 p.m. and I will bring a non-alcoholic beverage for similar-minded folk. Sorry, no money for a gift - will have to wait till the actual wedding.
