you know exactly what this is
There's just something about a wedding that puts people in good spirits. Maybe it's the energy or the fact that people have come together to celebrate their love in such a public fashion. Whatever it is, Lance couldn't be more excited about this one. If anyone deserves a big fancy wedding and an excuse to celebrate, it's Shiro.
It's a bittersweet evening, though, because he can't help feeling just the slightest bit sorry for himself. It's not that he wishes his friend any ill will so much as that he can't quite shrug off the fact that he has nobody to share the evening with. Maybe it's selfish of him, but he'd always figured that by the time Shiro- or any of the others were getting married, he'd have figured out his own romantic situation.
His solution for this dilemma, naturally, is to be as over-the-top charming as he possibly can. Putting forth a loud, excited front has become second nature at this point. And of course, there are plenty of other people enjoying the festivities... which means plenty of distractions. It's easy enough to flit from conversation to conversation, stealing a dance here and there.
Eventually, the excitement of the party turns out to be too much, and by that point he figures nobody will miss him- so he slips out when the crowd isn't looking. He's not going home just yet, but it's a nice night so loitering out in the garden while everyone else is partying seems like a pretty solid plan.
