Barry really wasn't the best place for a wedding but the day Rose and the Doctor had chosen was perfect, the sun was shining and there wasn't a cloud in the sky.
The Doctor and Jack were standing at the entrance welcoming all the guests whilst Mickey and Luke waited inside also talking with the guests. Back at Gwen's house the girls were all getting ready. Bridesmaids Mika and Abi now both just over two and a half were already dressed in their white dresses with deep blue sparkly cardigans on top. Gwen was finishing curling Rose's hair whilst Martha, Lois and Lolly took it in turns with the straighteners. Twenty minutes later the four bridesmaids were dressed in deep blue silk, flowing dresses with the same blue shawls coming just under their shoulders. Rose's dress was white but the back was the deep blue and so was the little train. The blue came round to the front to the top where the dress was strapless. Around the edge of the blue was a pretty silver embroidered pattern. Rose had deep blue clips in her hair, keeping it back from her face and also a beautiful blue bracelet that used to be her Mum's.
Gwen handed the flowers round and gave Mika and Abi their little baskets of petals to scatter down the aisle.
"Are you ready?" Gwen asked Rose.
"Ready as I'll ever be," Rose smiled nervously back.
The girls headed downstairs just as the limo arrived and Martha and Gwen helped the two toddlers in first then Gwen and themselves and then Lois and Lolly.
The vicar was standing outside waiting and signalled to Jack and the Doctor (going by the name of John Smith for the wedding) to go inside before letting the girls out. He headed inside and closed the side door as they headed to the top of the church for the walk down the aisle.
Rhys and James opened the doors as the music, (Suddenly by Angry Anderson, ((tribute to Astrid))) played out. Everyone cooed as Mika and Abi were the first down the aisle scattering the petals, followed closely by Lolly then Lois, Martha then Gwen. When they reached the top of the aisle, everyone smiling there were even more smiles at how gorgeous Rose was as she entered and walked slowly, effortlessly and elegantly down the aisle, smiling at the Doctor the whole way. Gwen, Martha, Lolly and Lois were standing to the side of Rose; Sarah Jane had got Mika and Abi with her in the front row whilst Jack, Mickey and Luke were to the side of the Doctor.
Everyone was anticipating the vows which were said so beautifully, the Doctor taking his turn first.
"Rose, you're my best mate, the one I can always count on to pick me up when times are bad, to share my joy when times are good and to tell me I'm an idiot on the rare occasion that might be true. I promise to cherish you, to laugh with you, to cry with you, to love and protect you, to love our daughter and every day I will ask myself how I ever got to be so blessed." The Doctor recited, always smiling.
Everyone watched on lovingly as Rose took a deep breath before reciting her vows.
"Doctor, you are my best friend, and from now on, thanks to you, I get to fly, the girl with all the guts who was always so scared to even dream that she could ever be truly happy, let alone think that it might come true." Rose smiled, welling up as Gwen and Jack exchanged a smile across them.
"But now I've got the fairytale wedding and I promise to love you, not from this day forward, because I have always loved you. I promise I will continue to love you, in good times and in bad, in sadness and in joy, with everything that I have to give, completely and forever and when I'm old and grey," Rose continued.
"You'll still be the hottest woman I've ever seen in my life," the Doctor interrupted and the congregation laughed emotionally.
Rose continued and when she finished Jack handed over the rings that were placed on the bible before Rose took the Doctor's and placed it on his finger before smiling, "with this ring I thee wed," and the Doctor did the same with hers.
"I now pronounce you husband and wife," the vicar smiled before letting Rose and the Doctor share a passionate kiss as everyone clapped and smiled, a tear ran down Rose's cheek.
Everyone headed to the reception at a posh pub called the Nightingale just outside of Cardiff. Once everyone had eaten, it was time for the first dance. Taking the microphone and holding it together, Jack and Gwen introduced it and Rose and the Doctor took to the floor with Sometimes by Rebecca Lavelle playing.
After a few minutes other couples were on the floor, Martha and Mickey, Gwen and Rhys, Jack and Lois, Luke and Lolly before he went and danced with his Mum and Lolly and James danced together. When the next song played Rose lifted Mikayla up and her and the Doctor danced with her too, Gwen and Rhys doing the same thing.
Mikayla was staying with Gwen, Rhys and Abi whilst the Doctor and Rose went on their honeymoon and Lolly left with James to stay up in London for a while to see Lindsay, Bobby and her other friends from the mission again.
Six months later...
Rose and the Doctor were expecting their second child; Rose was five months pregnant whilst Martha had given birth to hers and Mickey's first child Neil Joseph Smith one week ago. Lolly and James were still happily together. Gwen, Rhys and Abi were still looking after Lolly and Abi and Mika were still best friends.
