No real color theme, per se, but our favorite color is purple. I will probably be wearing my purple striped shirt.  The ceremony is going to be pretty informal and simple since it's pretty much just a bunch of people flash mobbing the zoo dressed like crazy steampunkers. lol. The reception is going to be more of just a big party to let loose and have fun.

Since we are all stuck at our homes right now, lets see some projects people have been working on.  
 
I set up my forge the other day and started making 2 knives out of railroad spikes.  I think they are turning out pretty good for being my first attempt.

I made my first wire tree.  I think I did pretty well making this Cherry Blossom Bonsai.  Next I need to mount it on a rock or crystal. 
I learned a lot from working on it so I think I improve on my design and make ever better trees.  I am now starting on a thicker Juniper Bonsai style that I will be mounting on an antique typewriter to make a cool steampunk piece.

If it helps with the decision, the zoo wedding isn't until next year so there is plenty of time to get clothing.

Thank you for the offer. The Mayor of the Michigan Steampunk Society is ordained but we will keep you in mind in case he is unable or changes his mind about officiating for us. Either way you are welcome to join us.

Here is the comparison for you. Old lights and new lights. I think the new ones are much better and safer.

I plan on having my car there as well because why not. It should be a good time, all things considered.

Chel and I were planning on having our wedding in September of this year but due to the current crisis we have decided to postpone. I will make sure to post more details when we get things all figured out because I'm sure some of you will want to be there.  We are now aiming for August 21 2021.  The are talking with the Michigan Steampunk Society about having the ceremony as a Steampunk Flash mob event at the Detroit Zoo. Everyone will be welcome no matter how you decide to dress.  We will then have a reception at a hall that is hopefully close to the zoo with a buffet, DJ and open bar if we can arrange it. 
Chel and I are not the best at planning or organizing events so please be patient and understanding with us as we try to muddle our way through things. If you would like to offer assistance in any way, feel free to contact us. We do love our DGN family even though we don't get a chance to socialize often and we hope to see people join us for our special day when the crisis has calmed down.

I believe there are plans for a meetup at Greenfield Village on Monday as well.

I've always love classic cars but never had the chance to own one. I bought my first classic yesterday and I can't wait to get to take it to shows and steampunk events. It's a replica of a 1929 Mercedes-Benz Gazelle built on a 1971 VW frame and drive train. It's in excellent shape and is definitely an interesting car to drive.

Chel and I went to the Detroit Zoo on the 14th for a meetup with the Michigan Steampunk Society and I took the opportunity to surprise her by proposing. As you can tell, she said yes. 

Greetings. Welcome to the group.
