Prologue:
It all started at the wedding of Lily Evans and James Potter. They were barely out of Hogwarts by the time they had set a date. Two months before graduation, James had proposed to her on the highest tower the school had to offer. Just as the proposal had been, the wedding was to be perfect. Their family and friends were to be gathered for this tremendous occasion.
The night before the wedding the Marauders had spent it listening to the groom moaning and groaning about what if Lily left him at the alter or what if he was a terrible husband. As the best man, Sirius Black did his best to cheer up his best mate by casting a Silencing charm on him so the rest of the groomsmen wouldn't have to listen to the nonsense.
At the girls' home it wasn't much better. Lily was fretting over every last detail. She wanted her wedding to be perfect. Marlene Mckinnon, her maid of honor and best friend, knew the reason behind the fretting. It was mainly because Lily's sister had refused to come. Every once in a while, Marlene would catch Lily looking longingly at the phone, as if she was wishing Petunia would call her.
The main difference between this wedding and the weddings James Potter were used to was the fact that he was the groom and there was to be no magic. His bride had come from a Muggle family whereas he was a pureblood. Instead of the traditional dress robes, he was to wear a tuxedo. Much to his friends dismay, they were forced into wearing the monkey suits as well.
Ever since she was a little girl, Lily Evans had dreamed about her wedding. She'd picked out the dress color of the bridesmaids, her flowers, and practically every little detail. Hardly anything had changed from her plans as a little girl. Her sister was no longer the maid of honor, nor were her muggle friends bridesmaids. Now Marlene Mckinnon was her maid of honor with Alice Fenwick (not for long from the sound of Frank's plans) and Dorcas Meadowes. The best friends she had made while at Hogwarts. She knew that without a doubt, their friendships would survive this bloody war.
Both James and Lily remained awake that night. Neither could sleep due to pre-wedding jitters. The excitement bubbled inside of them. When they did manage to fall asleep, a smile remained on their face. It was only a matter of time before they were officially Mr. and Mrs. Potter.
