Duncan and Brenda McSmurf's wedding

Duncan and Brenda McSmurf's wedding was an event that took place a few years after the Smurfs had met their Smurfette counterparts on Smurfette Island in the EMPATH: The Luckiest Smurf story series. The wedding's main participants were


 * Duncan McSmurf as the bridegroom
 * Brenda McSmurfette as the bride
 * Papa Smurf as the minister
 * Tapper as the best man
 * Sympathy as the maid of honor
 * Hefty and Tuffy as the ushers
 * Siobhan and Artemis as the bridesmaids
 * Empath as the escort of the bride
 * Snappy as the ring bearer
 * Sassette as the flower girl

The wedding was in the style of the ancient wedding rites of the Clan McSmurf, with the male Smurfs all dressed in kilts and armed with swords and spears, and the female Smurfs all dressed in war dresses, also armed with swords and spears. The other guests of the wedding, however, were permitted only to come as they are. During the ceremony, the bridegroom who ask to seek an alliance with a formidable maiden to be his warbride, and the bride would respond by asking to seek an alliance with a formidable warrior. The minister of the wedding would ask if there is anybody who would challenge the alliance being sought, and if there is a challenger, he must face the bridegroom in a sword duel until either of the two is defeated. However, the wedding ceremony prevents the killing of any allies, so whoever is defeated is then spared his life. From that point on, vows are exchanged between the bride and the bridegroom, and a cup of "blood wine" (which actually contains no real blood in it) is drunk by the couple to seal their alliance forever.
