Chapter 2:
It was finally time for the wedding to start. It was starting at 2:30 pm.
All the guests took their seats.
The bridesmaids and groomsmen walked down the white carpet arm in arm. White Blaze came behind them.
Once all eight, plus a white tiger, were standing at their positions, a violinist started playing, 'Here Comes the Bride.'
Ryo looked down the walkway and was trying hard not to faint for the first time after seeing his bride-to-be walking toward him as gorgeous as ever.
He smiled at her as they took each others hands and faced each other for the priest to start.
"We are gathered here today to join these two in holy matrimony. Before going any further, the two have vows that they would like to share. Ryo, would you like to begin?"
Ryo nodded his head and turned to Sage to get the vows from him.
Sage handed him the paper with a smile.
Ryo began to read, "Cyci, the day I met you was the day I finally started my life. Without you, my life would be nothing and my world would be empty. You allowed the fire around me to grow brighter with every passing day. I love you with all my heart and soul. I'm grateful that you're the one I'm going to spend my whole life with."
Cyci smiled and blushed at his words. Ryo kissed her on the cheek.
It was Cyci's turn to read her vows. "Ryo, I have searched for someone like you all my life, and here you finally are, in front of me, on our wedding day. You're not only the man of my dreams, you are my best friend. No matter what happens, I'll always be by your side. I love you so much, and I hope and pray that we will spend our whole life together."
Ryo smiled and laid his hand on her cheek.
The priest and everyone around them smiled and awed at the words the two spoke.
"Shall we begin," the priest asked?
The two nodded with huge smiles. "Definitely," Ryo announced!
Everyone laughed at that.
"Do you Cyci York take Ryo Sanada to be your lawful wedded husband? To hold and to cherish till death do you part?"
"I do."
"Do you Ryo Sanada take Cyci York to be your lawful wedded wife? To hold and to cherish till death do you part?"
"I do."
"Now it's time to place the rings onto each others ring finger."
"White Blaze, come here boy," Ryo said.
The big white tiger walked up to them and the two took their rings off a red pillow that was tied to his back.
"Now, say after me, with this ring I thee wed."
The two took turns saying the words while at the same time placing the rings onto their ring finger.
"You are now husband and wife. You may kiss the bride."
Ryo and Cyci leaned in to kiss each other passionately on the lips.
Everyone cheered and some even whistled.
The reception was going to take place inside the Zen Garden building.
As Ryo and Cyci were introduced as the new Mr. and Mrs. Sanada, Cyci donned on her second dress.
There were many foods to choose from, like, Taiyaki Chicken, raw fish, and different types of noodles.
The wedding cake was a six-tier, with three red velvet cakes and three chocolate and vanilla marble cakes.
The outside of the cake was a Cheery Blossom theme with white fondant, red and gold designs, and Cheery Blossom stems and flowers that went on each layer of the cake. The cake topper was of two doves.
There was even different types of music playing, both English and Japanese, and fast and slow music.
The party went on till ten at night.
The two who caught the bouquet and garment were no other than Cye and his love Jazmyn.
