It's wedding day chapter! This one is a little shorter than most, but I did want to split them up so it wasn't one really long one. This one is also a little more about Hanna and the girls, rather than Haleb...since they've been pretty absent in this story, however there are some really cute Haleb moments in here as well. I am really excited to get the vows up (PM me if you would like a preview of those because I do already have them written), which I should get up tomorrow! I hope you guys still enjoy this chapter, let me know what you think! As always, thank you for all the kind reviews on this story.


Hanna sits in her white bride robe at a setup makeup station in the middle of her suite at The Radley. "Where is Aria? She was supposed to be here like 20 minutes ago!" Hanna screams as she looks around the room for the girls.

"Hanna, if you don't quit moving I am eventually going to burn you with one of these rollers, now sit still." the hairdresser says as she gives her a warning look in the mirror.

Hanna huffs "Sorry, I am just…." She spots Spencer in the mirror walking around in the back of the room "Spencer, where is Aria?"

Spencer stops and a panicked look washes over her face as she pulls her cellphone out of the pocket of her robe "I uh..I don't but I will find out." she says as she quickly throws her phone to her ear, knocked the giant rollers in her hair against her head "Ouch!" she says as she stops to rub the side of her head.

Hanna glares at her in the mirror "Okay, I am going…chill Bridezilla." she mumbles under her breath as she walks out of the room

"I HEARD THAT!" she yells just as the door opens and Aria rushes in her hands full of coffee cups and boxes.

"Sorry I am late…" she says as she shuts the door "I ran by the Brew and grabbed coffees and you some red velvet cupcakes" she says as she sits a cup in front of Hanna on the table and a box that holds a cupcake which Hanna grabs immediately

"And on my way back I was stopped…by the groom, and handed this" she says as she pulls a small box out and card of her bag and squeals with excitement as she shakes them in front of Hanna.

Hanna throws the cupcake down and spins around in her chair, not caring about the hairdresser who huffs at her and reaches for the box.

"He said to tell you to open the card first, and then the present…" she says as she snatches the box back out of reach and hands her the card.

Taking the envelope from Aria's outstretched hand she opens it and begins to read

Hanna,

On this day I have loved you for 7 years, 4 months, and 27 days. Today will start day 1 of forever as husband and wife.

I love you. – C

Hanna smiles up at her friends who have all came into the living room and sat down on the couch across from her "Isn't he the sweetest?" she says as she holds the card to her chest and they all shake their heads "Now, gimme the box and no one gets hurt." She deadpans.

Aria hands over the small white box wrapped in a nude colored ribbon. Hanna excitedly pulls the ribbon off and tosses it onto the table. She pulls the small lid off the box and sighs when she sees what is inside. She pulls the necklace out of the box and shows it to everyone.

"I saw this months ago when we went to buy his band and said how much I loved it…I cannot believe he remembered."

"Essence of best boyfriend - We should've so bottle his ass…millionaires" Spencer mumbles under her breath

"What?" Emily asks confused

"Nothing…just…nothing." Spencer says as she stands and grabs a coffee cup off the table.

Ali stands from her spot near the couch and walks to Hanna who still holds the necklace out "Hanna, it's beautiful" she says as she examines it.

"Thank you." she says as she holds it out and looks over it herself "Yep. I'm lucky." She says as she turns around to the hairdresser "Can we pause this for like 2.5 seconds? I really need some Facetimin' with my groom" she says with a smile as she grabs her phone.

"NO!" everybody yells in unison, making Hanna look around the room.

"Okay…rude…" she says with a look of irritation on her face.

Emily walks up and politely snatches the phone out of her hand "It's bad luck to see the bride before the wedding. Anything you need to say to him, I will text FOR you." she says with a smile

"Okay, but you aren't going to like it." Hanna says with a shrug as she turns back around to the mirror to get back to her hair.

She looks in the mirror at Emily who stands with the phone in her hand "Are you ready?" she says making Emily give her a look in the mirror. Hanna smiles "Caleb, thank you for the necklace." she says as she watches Emily start to type it out "I cannot wait to wear it for you tonight after you peel me out of my wedding dress." She says and Emily's face scrunches up in disgust as she types it out "Xo – H"

Emily types the rest of the message out quickly and hits send before throwing the phone onto the couch "Don't ever say that I don't love you because that…ugh. I don't even want to know." she says as she throws her hands up in mock disgust

Hanna laughs at her friend in the mirror as the cellphone dings, making Emily turn around and glance down at it, then up at Hanna in the mirror. "What? You took it away from me. Now read it."

Emily walks over and swipes the phone open, her wide eyes make Hanna bust out laughing as she Emily throws the phone back down like it has burned her "That's…just…wrong…on so many levels" She looks up at Hanna who gives her normal 'any day now' look before Emily finally picks it back up "Fine." She says then yells over her shoulder "Hey Spence, Hanna has a text could you please come read it to her?"

Spencer replies as she is walking into the room "Why can't you read…it…to…her?" she asks as she slows down to read the text. "Ew, no. Aria!"

Aria walks into the room tying the front of her matching floral bridesmaid bathrobe Hanna bought them "Yeah?" she asks

Spence holds the phone out to her "Han has a text she needs you to read to her." she says as she holds the phone out.

Aria takes the phone and quickly reads over the text "Nope. I don't care if it is bad luck or not…I am NOT reading that! She can have her phone back" she says as she hands the phone back to Spencer and walks back out of the room.

"Well, someone needs to read it…" Hanna calls out from her spot in front of the mirror. "Fine. Just hand it here, I am not afraid of a little dirty talk." she says as she holds her hand out.

Emily and Spencer both exchange looks and shrugs as Spencer walks up and hands Hanna her phone "No Facetime." She warns before she sits the phone in her hand.

"Fine." Hanna says as she opens her phone and reads the offending text. Her eyebrows wag and she smiles as she begins to type out a reply while they look on.

"Ew. I am going to enjoy my coffee…elsewhere." She says as she grabs her cup and turns to walk back out of the room.

Two hours later, they are done with hair and makeup, and are packing up everything in the room to carry to the church, as Hanna paces the floor, nervously.

"Han, will you calm down, everything is fine. Look, today is the happiest day of your life. You're gonna be a Rivers today!" Ali says as she grabs Hanna by the shoulders to stop her.

"I know, and I am happy…I'm just…nervous. I haven't been up speaking in front of this many people since my last play at fat camp…" she says as she brings her hands to her head

"Han, are you forgetting about the fashion show?" Emily encourages as she begins to pack up hairspray.

"Yeah, but I didn't do all that by myself…and we all know how disastrous that fashion show ended up."

"What about Ezra's play? You did that and you weren't nervous. You really rocked it" Aria says as she joins them, holding the bridesmaids' dresses

"Yeah, and I played a drunk woman…making a fool of myself was easy." She says as she falls back down on the couch careful not to mess up her hair "I just don't want to ruin today…today is going to be the day we tell our children about one day…and I don't want to have to tell them that mommy projectile vomited all over daddy while saying her vows."

"Well, that would test out the for better or for worse part" Spencer says and it makes everybody turn to look at her "Sorry."

"Look you will do fine. Trust me, you will see Caleb standing at the other end of the aisle and all your nerves will disappear." Aria says as she sits down on the table in front of Hanna and grabs her hands "And we will be there, I promise we won't let your story to your kids involve vomit…I will carry a bag in my cleavage just in case." she says and they share a laugh and a hug "Now, if you are done having your freak out moment…we need to head to the church so that we can change and get started taking pictures because you…Hanna Marin are getting married today." she squeals.

"I am getting married today!" she says back with a smile and she stands opening her arms for a hug. All the girls come in and wrap their arms around each other in a group hug. "And I have the best group of girls to help me through the day…and the best man waiting on me. So let's get this party started!" she says

They all squeal and throw their hands up in the air, followed by laughter before they continue to pack up everything and throw it onto a luggage cart. Hanna turns back to pick up the box with the necklace inside before she turns back around to the girls.

"Oh you think before we go to the church we can stop by the grille first? I really want some cheese fries…" Hanna asks the girls who all shoot her a look.

"What? I'm hungry…I get hungry when I get nervous" she explains

"You want to get out of the car and go into the grille in your bride robe?" Spencer asks

"No…I can't take the chance of Caleb seeing me so I can't get out of the car…you will." she says as she gives her a less than convincing smile "Spence pleaseeeeeeeeee?" she begs

"Fine!" she says as she turns back to the luggage cart and sits a bag down before turning back to Hanna "But this is where I draw the line…" she says to Hanna who bounces up and down.

When they arrive at the church Emily hops out of the car first and runs inside to make sure the coast is clear. She swings open the front doors and peeks inside, seeing nothing inside but the arbor and the flowers that line the aisle she turns back to the car and them the okay.

Spencer cuts the engine and they start to pile out. Emily walks back to the car to help unload. Each girl grabs their dress and a bag while Hanna stands on the sidewalk eating her cheese fries. When they are all loaded up they turn to walk up the stairs to the front doors of the church. Ali swings the door open and sees Caleb walking down the aisle towards them. He stops and looks at her confused

"Hey…okay...Caleb" she says aloud and makes everybody stop. Hanna stops, eyes wide as she hides behind the other door in the front of the church. Ali looks over at Emily "I thought you said it was clear" she whispers back at Emily who looks at Caleb then back to Ali

"It was." She whispers to her before turning back to him "What are you doing here?"

"I uh, I came here to talk to Pastor Ted before the wedding. Why? Am I not allowed to be here or something? He asks

"No, uh…you are…it's just that…its bad luck to see the bride before the wedding…and uh, we kinda have the bride."

He smiles at them "Oh you do?" then he leans over to look out the door, making the girls all move around to block his view of Hanna.

"Yeah, we do and you can't see her!" Spencer calls out as she puts her hand on the door and uses her dress to block Hanna from his line of sight.

"So, I guess I need to leave then?"

"Pretty much…yeah." Aria answers him.

"Okay, well if I can't see her…can I at least talk to her?"

They all look at each other before Aria glances over her shoulder Hanna who still leans on the door outside of the church, smile plastered on her face. She smiles at Aria and shakes her head yes and mouths 'please' to her.

"Fine. But no peeking." She says to Caleb as she looks back over her shoulder at Hanna.

"Thank you." She whispers as Aria smiles at her.

The girls move from the doorway and walk past him down the aisle to the front of the church. When they reach the front, they stop and turn around to watch as he walks up to the door and puts his face so that Hanna can hear him but the girls can't.

"Hey Han." He whispers

Hanna swallows hard, trying to catch her breath "Hi." she finally whispers back.

"So, uh…today is the day. You ready?"

She lets out a breath "Yeah…I am…I am marrying you so hard today." and they laugh "You nervous?"

"A little…but I will be fine once I can lay my eyes on you." He says and it makes her smile and get teary eyed.

"I promise not to projectile vomit on you." She laughs through her tears "Aria has me covered on the vomit….but I can't promise I won't pee my pants…my, uh dress…"

"As long as you say I do, I could care less about vomit or pee…" he laughs back to her. He sticks his hand out the open door towards her. She puts her hand in his and they lace their fingers together and she lets out a sob.

"Hey, you're beautiful. I am so lucky."

"See, you are a liar. You haven't even seen me, and you're already saying I look beautiful. I could have a zit the size of Jupiter."

"I'm not lying, you are beautiful. Today, yesterday, tomorrow…you're beautiful even if you have a zit the size of Jupiter…and I am lucky."

He pulls their hand inside the door and brings it to her lips, placing a kiss on her ring finger above her engagement ring.

"In just a few hours, you will be Mrs. Caleb Rivers…and I am so ready to call you my wife. I love you."

She lets out a breath and tries to keep herself from crying as whispers "I love you too."

He lets go of her hand and turns to walk back down the aisle towards the girls. They all stand with tears in their eyes as they watch the exchange between the couple. He looks up at them and smiles as he walks out of the front of the church and shuts the door behind him. The girls walk back down the aisle and to the door where Hanna sits with her back to the door and tears in her eyes.

She looks over at them and laughs as she wipes her cheeks "Well...now I am gonna need a touch up." she cries and it makes the girls laugh.

"Come on babe, lets get you touched up" Spencer says as she reaches out and wraps her arms around her shoulders "Damn Caleb for being so sweet."
