Thank you for the reviews!

"I'm so excited!" Ginny squealed as she hugged her brother and her best friend. "I can't believe you're finally getting married!"

"Congratulations," Harry added, much calmer than his wife. He hugged Hermione. He was happy for his friend. She wanted to much to start a family, though he knew she'd never truly admit to it. He could see it every time he watched her pick up James.

"Gin, you'll be my maid of honor right?" Hermione asked, smiling, though she already knew the answer.

"Of course! I'd be offended if you didn't ask!" she laughed. "When are you going to tell mum and dad?"

Fred put an arm around his fiance. "We sent an owl to them early this morning. They should be home soon. We thought we'd go over this afternoon and let them know. Ron and Alicia are coming over soon. And George and Katie should be over with the baby soon too. We sent owls to Bill and Fleur, Charlie and Percy asking them to head to the burrow later as well. I don't think Charlie will be able to make it though."

"So what is it that you couldn't have told me last night when we were out risking death?" Ron smiled as he and Alicia appeared in the flat. He looked to Hermione and then to Fred. He had seen that look. He looked down to Hermione's hand. "My brother finally got up the guts, eh?" he laughed. When Hermione simply smiled even wider and nodded emphatically, he hugged her and kissed her cheek. There had been a time when this news would have crushed him. But instead he found himself happy for his best friend and brother.

"Mum is going to flip!" Ginny grinned. It would be fun this time around, helping plan the wedding without everything being on her.

"About what?" George and Katie used the floo network, their newborn son in his father's arms.

"Aww, my little nephew," Ginny immediately ran and picked up baby Fred.

"Good to see you too baby sister," George frowned. "So what's the big news?"

"You're going to be my best man, mate," Fred replied casually. He laughed when Katie almost squealed.

"I'm glad you finally asked. Little Freddie is going to need a partner in crime soon," George winked at Hermione, causing a blush.

"No babies yet."

"No, I plan on enjoying some time with my future wife before your son corrupts any children we have," Fred laughed.

"Yeah yeah yeah," George rolled his eyes. He hugged Hermione. "Seriously though, I'm glad you'll finally be my sister for real. It's about time."

"Oh, Fred, I don't need to go on some big expensive honeymoon. If you could just get away from the shop for a week that'd be enough," Hermione sighed as she leaned against her fiance, playing with the ring on her finger.

"Well that's already taken care of. But I still want to take you somewhere. Where do you want to go?"

"It really doesn't matter," she grinned.

"Fine. Then we'll go everywhere," he shrugged, matter of factly.

"You just can't do anything normal can you?" she laughed. "I want to go somewhere warm. Hawaii. Or the Caribbean. I want to be on the beach."

"I love the beach," he grinned. "Nude beach?"

"No!" she shot up, laughing. "I don't want anyone seeing me nude. Or you for that matter."

"Not even me?" he pouted.

"That depends on the day I suppose," she smiled.

"You nervous?" Harry asked as the group adjusted their dress robes.

"Not nervous really. Just, you know, thinking of running far far away," he laughed.

"That's natural, mate," George smiled. "Even Dad told me he felt the same way when he married mum."

Fred sighed. He had wanted this. He had tried to mentally prepare himself for the last 5 months for this day. He loved Hermione more than anything. But somehow this whole wedding thing was making him nervous. "What if I'm not a very good husband?"

"You love her right?" Ron asked.

"More than anything in the world," he responded quickly.

"Then you'll be fine. She loves you. You've been together for years. Nothing is going to change except now it's all official," Ron tried to sound comforting.

Fred laughed. "There was a time when I thought you'd never be willing to stand up there with me in marrying your best friend."

"Yeah, things change," he laughed casually. "I understand now how much you mean to each other. And I love Alicia," he added.

"You're next up then, baby brother," George teased.

"Yeah, I suppose I am," he smiled.

Fred walked down the hall to the backyard to see everyone gathered under the large tent. He noticed how much more involved this wedding was than Harry and Ginny's. He supposed it was because Hermione's mother and his own were planning together. And Hermione did not want to put up a fight at Ginny had done about all the decorations. He smiled and greeted his father and older brothers as they were directing everything.

"You all ready son?" Arthur asked as he gave his son an encouraging pat on the back.

"Ready as I could be, I suppose," he smiled. "Mum and Mrs. Granger sure did go to a lot of work with all this," he looked around.

"Oh yes, your mother finally got her way with a dream wedding and no interference from Fleur's mother," he laughed. "Go stand up there. The girls will be ready soon."

Fred nodded and walked up to the front of the tent. Normally this many eyes on him would be welcome. But normally he'd be pulling some prank with George that would have some people gasping and other laughing. He felt a surge of relief when he heard the music begin. He saw Hermione's mother and his own mother and father walking toward him. Both the elder women had tears in their eyes. As they took their seats, he saw Ginny and George walking together. His younger sister looked so grown up. Soon after was Harry and Katie, followed by Ron and Alicia and Finally Lee and Luna. His smile broadened when he saw Hermione appear with her father. She was gorgeous. He couldn't believe he was actually getting married. In his younger days, he would have never thought he'd settle down. Lucky for him, the boys had blown up their apartment while practicing spells and potions. She finally reached him. This was finally the moment he had been waiting for. He watched as her father kissed her cheek and went to his seat next to her mother. He was finally marrying the girl of his dreams.

"I told you one day you'd be as happy as Harry and Ginny," he whispered as they had their first dance as a married couple.

"Yes, I remember you did. I'm glad you kept your promise," she smiled as she leaned her head gently on his chest as they danced slowly.

"I love you," he smiled as he kissed her.

"I love you too, Fred."
