A lot of us seem to think that the johnlock wedding would be this simple civil wedding with signing papers and just witnesses but, I don’t think an eccentric show off like Sherlock would want that. I mean I would think that it would be too “boring” or “dull” for him. Sure, Sherlock might find planning a big wedding with the all the socializing tedious, but he wants to show off John. And I would imagine it was his way of declaring to loads of people that John is no longer available.
Imagine Sherlock planning the wedding in legit bridezilla manner. Like can you imagine him calling the flower shop and calling them all idiots cause they gave him the wrong sample flowers. or how the caterer fucked something up. Or how John realizes that trusting Sherlock with the invitations was a big mistake.
“I specifically asked for carnations not this sorry excuse for roses!”
“John! They’re ruining our wedding!”
“Sherlock, it’s dim sum. Let it go,love.”
“Sherlock, Mycroft just called he told me he hasn’t got his and your parents’ invitations yet.”
“....Love, you sent out 200 invitations. Are you telling me not one of those are for your family. Who did you even invite?!”
“Mycroft’s going to invite himself anyways. He won’t pass up the opportunity to stuff himself with free cake. And I don’t doubt that he hasn’t already told mummy. They’ll be there”
It was a day before the wedding that Sherlock finally loses it when he finds out one of their guests have cancelled. And John finds him so frustrated and close to tears.
“Love, it’s one guest. We’ll be fine.”
“No! She’s your sister! She should be there to support you on your special day! Her absence will make you unhappy, and I don’t want you unhappy! YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO BE UNHAPPY!”
“Oh, love. Nothing can make me unhappy, especially on the day that I can call you husband.”
Bonus: Sherlock wanted to be in charge of everything, but Captain John Watson wanted to be the one to pick the rings.
Another Bonus: Lestrade’s invitation being delayed due to incorrect information.
“Sherlock, Greg just called me he hasn’t received his invitation, yet.”
“Who the hell is Greg, and why should I invite a man we don’t know to our wedding?!”
“......*calls the postal service* Yeah, it seems there was a mistake.”
