Dear Melody,

I am excited for any reasons, not least of which being that I love Roman with all my heart, and becoming is wife is just about the finest thing I can think of. I am happier than I could possibly imagine being! Added to that the pleasure that we might be as sisters soon, even if the number of Mrs. Crouches might become rather confusing!

I've not met Mrs Malfoy yet, and I will not deny that I am nervous of meeting her. Have you had much to do with Mrs Crouch, formerly Scamander?

I think we intend to do a Spring wedding, as some of my favorite flowers will not be in season until then, and given the date, it will be January before the banns are read, and by then it will be so cold, dark and miserable that it is best to wait until the days lengthen, and winter begins to loose its hold on us.
