Here it is at last!

We decided that this will be a double shot...the reception and the reunion will be in the next chapter. We wanted this chapter to be completely about Adam and Tanya.

You all know by now what we own and what we don't own.

Enjoy!

It was time.

The room rented out for the wedding was all decked out…there could be no doubt…it was a Christmas wedding.

At the front of the hall there was a giant Christmas tree…all decked out in yellow lights and ribbons. At the top was a gleaming yellow star.

All around the room soft ivory candles flickered in their candle stands.

At the entrance of the room…behind the closed doors…the bridal party waited.

Tanya was on her dad's arm and they stood waiting behind the others…waiting for the moment.

It was a beautiful Ivory white off the shoulder gown with a sweetheart neckline and a chapel train. The gown was embellished with tiny crystals, glass beads and sequins.

Her lacy veil was one part of the wedding tradition…Kimberly had worn it to her wedding…it was the 'something borrowed.' and it looked beautiful now draped over her head.

Around her neck was a very old necklace…an old silver heart shaped locket…her grandmother had worn it…and her mother had worn it…and now she wore it. 'It was the something old.'

The something blue was her wedding garter…that some lucky single guy would own by the end of the night.

And the 'something new'.…well, that was something only Adam would know about.

Ahead of them at the front of the line Terra. She wore a dress similar to the bride…but it had a sash around the middle. A green sash that was one part of it the Tanya didn't mind…her colors were yellow and green. So, it fit in with the wedding.

On her arm was a basket with yellow rose petals all ready to be strewn for the bride.

Behind her, was Kat the bride's matron of honor. Even pregnant, Kat looked very beautiful. When she had first been chosen, she was very nervous…unsure of how she would look…a pregnant bride's matron of honor…but Tanya had insisted on it. And Kat knew better then to go against a yellow ranger.

Behind her was Aisha, looking very beautiful. When Tanya began choosing her bridal party…she had wanted another yellow ranger…and so Aisha was chosen…and of course, Billy had been worried about his wife standing up that long…and had felt a lot better when Aisha had assured him that she would be up there with her incase something happened to Katherine.

The doors had opened.

Adam stood in his basic tuxedo and green tie. He was so eagerly awaiting his bride…just one night had been enough torture for him…he wanted so badly to see her…he kept shifting his feet every few minutes.

Next to him Rocky was chuckling. His best man and best friend was there for him…and chuckling. He put a comforting hand on his Adam's shoulder. "Breathe Adam…I can't have you fainting now."

Adam turned his head.

"Easy for you to say…I haven't seen Tanya in 24 hours." he whispered back.

Tommy chuckled next to them. "Rocky, until you marry…you won't understand. I felt the same way as Adam is now."

Adam shot his groomsman a grateful look and turned his eyes back to the door…waiting for his bride.

They had already watched as TJ and Tyler ushered everyone to their seats…a job that had been all to easy for them…and Adam was glad that they were so disciplined…they were perfect gentleman and they now stood at their posts…ready to open the doors for the bridal party.

All the guests were now seated.

On queue Tyler and TJ opened the doors of the room.

Adam tensed up slightly as the soft chords of music floated into the room.

Tommy watched with pride as his not so little girl walked gracefully down the isle throwing soft yellow rose petals in her wake and then walked to her spot.

She really was a pretty girl as evidenced as he saw Tyler staring after her. Yep…he was hooked.

Adam was doing his best to calm his nerves…as the rest of the bridal party made it's way up the front.

And then…came the first notes of the wedding march.

Adam held his breath…willing himself to calm down.

There she was…his beautiful woman…bride…and soon to be wife.

He knew at that moment that a big grin was spreading across his face as she walked slowly towards him.

She was so gorgeous…and she was glowing…and he smiled even wider when he saw her grin…a grin that no doubt matched his own.

She was getting closer…and then she was standing in front of him.

The minister had stepped forward.

Dear friends, and family, we have come here today to celebrate with Adam Park and Tanya Sloan as they join their hearts together in holy matrimony.

He turned to Mr. Sloan. "Who gives this woman?"

He cleared his throat. "Her mother and I."

He kissed her cheek and then gently placed her hands in Adam's, and then sat down next to his wife.

Adam grinned at her and gently squeezed her hands and she squeezed back as the minister began to speak again.

As they stared into each other's eyes…everything fell away…blending into the background…

"Today this couple had decided to say their own vows."

Adam startled slightly as he heard his queue.

"Adam? Would you like to go first?"

"Yes."

He stared in to Tanya's eyes…he had been so scared that he would forget what he had written…but now…it seemed to flow out effortlessly.

"Tanya. I thought you were beautiful the moment I saw you...and as I watched you faced tough odds I became more amazed with how brave and confident you became...and when it was over I realized how much I loved you...and I knew I wanted to spend the rest of my life with you....we been through so much together that I can't imagine being with anyone else. from this day forward I promise to love and cherish you, be there for you during highs and lows......care for you when you sick....celebrate with you when you are happy....console you when you are upset....and to be by your side for all eternity."

Tanya's eyes were watery and she swallowed and began.

"Adam, the first time I met you...I thought you were the most handsome guy on earth. Your quiet strength and determination gave me the courage to do what had to be done when the odds were stacked against us. You were a shoulder to cry on...and you were there to hold me when I needed it most. And that's why I love you. From this day forward I promise to love you and honor you, to stand with you in the worst of times and the best of times, and to be by your side for all eternity."

The minister's voice woke them from their thoughts.

"Do, you have the rings?"

Adam and Tanya nodded as the rings were handed to them.

Adam took the ring and slid it half way on her finger and then he smiled at her.

"Adam, repeat after me."

With this ring, as a token of my love and affection…I thee wed."

Adam took a deep breath. With this ring, as a token of my love and affection...I thee wed." He slid it on the rest of the way.

"Tanya, please repeat after me."

"With this ring, as a token of my love and affection...I thee wed."

She slid the ring on his finger. "With this ring, as a token of my love and affection...I thee wed."

She grinned at him radiantly

"You have all heard these two make their vows...what God has united may no one tear apart...therefore, by the authority given to me by God and the state of California I declare these two man and wife...Adam...you may kiss your bride."

Adam grinned at her and slowly lifted her veil. Taking her in his arms he pressed his lips to his bride's kissing her passionately.

And Tanya kissed him back with as much passion as he showed her.

The kiss seemed to go on for a couple for a long time…not that the couple noticed…at least not till they heard the minister cough silently.

Adam broke the kiss blushing and noticed that Tanya was doing the same.

"It is now my pleasure to present to you for the first time, Mr. and Mrs. Adam Park. Go forth in peace and joy."

Adam smiled at her and picked her up to everyone's surprise.

Tanya gasped in surprise and held on to him tightly as he carried her down the isle.

From somewhere they heard Kim burst out laughing.

The priest arched an eyebrow and chuckled softly as the wedding parties followed slightly surprised.

Tanya was holding on to her new husband for dear life.

"Adam...where are we going?"

"To the reception."

"Yeah...okay...just don't drop me ok?"

Adam chuckled and playfully dropped her a little.

Tanya gasped "If you want any tonight you won't try that again." she playfully threatened whispering in his ear.

"I'd never hurt you baby, you're everything to me."

Tanya grinned and kissed him softly as he carried her to reception hall.

What did you all think?

I thought it was a lovely ceremony

For the record...Adam's vows were written totally by fanficrulez.

And tanya's vows were written by me!

we both hope you like it!

Up next...the reception...and the reunion....
