aww, very funny and sweet story
I certainly didn't see that coming at the end - I honestly didn't think that Harry and Ginny were married
excellent story

Judged for competition.
This is certainly a unique setting for this challenge. This takes place at Ron/Hermione's wedding -- in June -- in Australia? Of course, I read your comments to your other reviewers about your own Antipodean winter wedding, so I see why you chose this as your setting. Since Hermione's parents are stuck in Australia according to DH, at least they can see their daughter get married, after having not seen her in so long.
As already pointed out, it's good that you incorporated the lines of the song so well as Harry tries to convince Ginny not to rejoin the witches -- as well as a bonus song "Play That Funky Music" (if I remember the title right.)
That was a surprise ending as you reveal that Harry/Ginny are already married!
Overall, great job, and good luck in the challenge!
Author's Response: Thanks! Did I put 'Play that Funky Music' in? Well that's odd, erm, someone may have to point that out to me ... *blushes*

Very nice, you stayed to the lyrics of the song completely....
Author's Response: I did indeed attempt such a feat lol seems it worked!

I hadn't foreseen the part about Ginny & Harry already being married until I got to the last line, so then I re-read the whole story just to see how many hints I missed. If it was intentional that the reader not realize that H & G are already married, good job with the surprise at the end. Or, if that was just me being clueless, then "whoops" is all I can think of to say.
Author's Response: It was supposed to be a surprise :D Glad you enjoyed it!

George is truely evil, and he barely missed a beat without Fred flying wing. Traditions are wonderful, but Ron and Hermione are stretching matters a bit. Ron's resolution was good, but I would have still wanted the whole thing at the Burrow. Harry's scene with Ginny was a classic. You drew us into the situation, made us feel for poor Harry and then twisted the knife George had produced. I really enjoyed it. Thanks! Eric B.
Author's Response: I know, the wedding venue is a stretch lol but it seemed like a good idea to tkae on the challenge of setting it in June *and* in the show ROFLOL I'm glad you enoyed it - entertainment's the game here! Thanks!
Author's Response: Snow, not show lol

Yeah - I just got mine up yesterday.
As for Harry, well, clearly you don't feel bad because he's a great protagonist. And like any great protagonist, he's an absolute blast to subject to never-ending torture of some form or another!

Hah! Very entertaining. I waited until I finished my own challenge fic to read yours, but it's just as good as I expected. I like how you don't reveal Harry and Ginny are already married until the last line - that was very slick, and just makes you feel all the worse for poor Harry. You also did a very good job of casting Harry as "the Wolf". Great job! - Patrick
Author's Response: Thanks! Is yours up yet? Poor Harry ... Tee Hee Hee why don't I feel bad ...

I enjoyed your story very much. I laughed when one of the boys says he'll join in being a woman when his bits shrivel right up from the cold. Very clever to have Hermione and Ron's wedding in the snow fields as it made the story very believable in terms of the weather. The romance with the separate chalets was very well done too. Thanks for writing!
Author's Response: Thanks for reviewing! It was fun to write, and that's the best part of writing, the fun! I think the one who's bits were about to shrivel up was George ... I'm pretty sure ;)

I really amused myself !! Well, a wedding in the snow must have its charm ! In Australia what's more !! ;)
It's a bad day for poor Harry... Ginny didnt' stay with him... and Ron is smirking lol...
Good job Kezza !
Author's Response: I think when someone said in the Challenge comments "Well I guess it has to be in December or soemthing deosn't it?" or something of the sort and someone smirked about well it snows in some places in June ... you know I had to rise to the challenge lol And then it was just like well this fits and that fits and ooh look .. ROFLOL I love it when Ron smirks ...

its a cute drabble, but after reading your usual stories, I felt like this one lacked a little bit of direction...no offence love!
Author's Response: Well, it was directed by the Challenge :D

I'd love to have a winter wedding, but then i remember that I hate the cold so that'd be quite silly.
Love the fact that they are married, i was wondering why there wasn't a line like 'Harry looked at his girlfriend of three years, Ginny Weasley' as many of the future-ish stories do. I should really suggest a trip to the Blue Mountains for schoolies week next year, I've always wanted to go
Enjoyed it and hope you do well in the challenge!
Author's Response: I was married in July - winter wedding in Sydney. yeah it was sunny ... lol I adore the Blue Mountains *sigh* Ah such a line is ... awkward at the best of times, but yeah definitely not needed in this fic :D
