Vampire Marriage Ritual

When a Vampire finds his/her mate, whomever or whatever it may be, they must come before the Coven's royal court and receive the blessing of each member before taking to the woods. There, they will carve their names into the tree holding the Fairy colony without getting swarmed by them and bathe in the sacred river. After those tasks are completed, they usually spend the night together--alone--in a cave or abandoned house.
