Beautiful Night

Jami's POV

It was the most beautiful night ever. And it being my wedding night, didn't hurt either.

Alice had went overboard, just like she had on Sam and Emily's wedding last month. The trees were decorated with twinkling yellow lights, and there were little light blue bows hanging on the lower limbs. Light purple and blue fabric were hanging from one tree to another above everyone's heads, connecting all of them together. She had made an aisle with poles, with the same type of fabric hanging from the trees, running up and down and connecting the poles together as well. Different colored rose petals littered the aisle of the ground, leading the way to the altar. There were tons of vases of freshly picked, colored roses every which way you looked. Then the thing that made it all perfect, was the large pond with the full moon reflecting off the still water.

It was just minutes before the wedding started, and I couldn't wait. I just wanted to go barging out there this instant and plant one on him and get it done with so that I could finally claim him as all mine. These past couple hours had been torturous, with Alice and Rosalie doing my hair and makeup. I had never been one to pamper myself.

I was standing by the window in Alice's room, staring down at everyone waiting for the wedding to start. I was looking for Seth, when someone walked into the room. I turned around to see Bella.

"You look absolutely beautiful Jami. Seth is a lucky man." Bella said, coming up to stand in front of me, brushing a strand of my hair out of my face. Alice had curled it into little ringlets, because she wanted something done to it since it was to short to pull up into any sort of ponytail.

"Thank you. As do you. The dress suits you well." It was a strapless light purple dress with a darker purple around the top. There was a large dark purple fabric that went around the waist and tied into a bow with the ties hanging down to her knees. The dress was to long to see the shoes, which were ankle high heeled boots.

She looked down at herself, while running her hands down the front of her dress. "Yeah. Alice sure knows what she's doing when it comes to planning a wedding." She reached up to move some of her own hair out of her face. Her hair was curled and put into a bun, with some of the long pieces hanging down out of the bun and some shorter pieces to frame her face.

I walked forward to look into the mirror. I had to agree with Bella. I really did look beautiful. I had on a spaghetti strap dress that was of course, white. It was tight at the top, but when it got to my hips it started to flare out with the different layers underneath. In the back, the top layer opened up to fold around the edges, showing one of the layers underneath. There was a good foot or two of the dress that trailed behind me. My curls were hidden by a short veil that went just to the middle of my back.

"We have to get into our places." Korlee said, barging into the room.

"I'll see you downstairs." Bella said, patting me on the back before she turned to leave.

Korlee walked in and stood next to me. I looked at her in the mirror. Her dress was different then Bella's since she was the maid of honor. It was still purple, but it was the darker purple. And it went just above her knees, so you could actually see her shoes, which were the same as Bella's. Her hair was up in the same fashion as Bella's also.

"You're actually getting married." Korlee said, still stunned that this was all happening so fast. It hadn't even been a year since I told her that I was leaving to help Bella, and now here we both are, getting ready for a wedding, my wedding none the least.

I turned around and smiled at her. "I know. It's unbelievable, but I wouldn't be doing this if I didn't love Seth with all my heart. He means everything to me."

Korlee grabbed me into a tight hug. "I know he does. I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen it. But the way you two look at each other, it's like you are each other's worlds." She pulled back to look me in the eye. "As if you need the other to survive. Love can't get more real than that." She didn't know how true she was.

The door opened and in popped Alice's head. "Enough with the chit chat. You're going to miss your own wedding."

I grabbed my flowers off the dresser and nearly flew out the door and down the stairs, with Korlee and Alice right behind me.

Everyone got into their positions that they were going to go out in, and they slowly started to go out when the music started.

Alice came up to me and looked me up and down. "Something's missing." She quickly went over to the end table by the door and grabbed a small box and brought it back to me. She then started to pull things out of it. "Here's something old." she said, pulling out a white flower hair pin and putting it in my hair to help keep some of my hair out of my face. "Here's something borrowed." She pulled out a rose charm bracelet and put it on my wrist. "Rosalie would like that back when you're done with it." She went back to digging in the box. "When she finds out I took it." she whispered. "So you have a couple days." she said a little more loudly. "And here's something new and blue." She reached up and moved my hair and veil back so that she could put a shining diamond necklace with a blue gem hanging down in the middle, around my neck. Then she put matching earrings on me. "There. You're perfect." She then turned around and walked out door.

I walked and stood my the door, looking out.

"I'm ready whenever you are." Carlisle said from behind me.

I turned my head to look at him. Carlisle was wearing the standard black and white tux, like the rest of the men outside. I reached out and wrapped my arm around his, and took a step outside.

It was as if everything happened in slow motion. Carlisle and I walked through the door and everyone turned their heads to look at me. I looked straight in front of me at Billy, who was marrying us, since she was the tribe leader. Then my eyes went to my love. My everything. My Seth.

Then everything sped up, and I was standing by Seth's side, lost in his eyes. I heard murmurs around me, but I couldn't comprehend what was being said. All that I noticed was Seth, and how he was going to be all mine with one kiss.

Then I saw his lips move, and a worried look come across his face. I blinked my eyes a couple times to clear my mind.

"Jami, do you take Seth to be your husband?" Billy said, and from the tone of his voice, he had already asked me that.

I blushed and looked down at my feet then back up at Seth. "I do." I said with confidence, making Seth smile.

"Then I pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride." We didn't need any other motivation. I nearly jumped on him, wrapping my arms around his neck, and pressed my lips against his, never wanting to stop.

After a couple minutes, Jacob, Seth's best man, cleared his throat, trying to make us stop. Sadly, we pulled apart and looked at the crowd. Then the party started.
