Harry was an odd mix of emotions that morning as Oliver and his brothers helped him dress. He was a mix of nervous and never more sure of any thing in his. life His brothers all assured him that it was normal. If he hadn't felt like that then they would be worried. He was in love and knew he wanted to spend his life with Draco but it was still a big step. For now Draco would be moving into the house Harry and Teddy lived in. He had been living with his dad and he was as fond of the home as Harry and Teddy. Harry had even with a hang over went to Godric's Hollow with the Tonks that morning. He knew his dad and parents not to mention Sirius were with him. He had been given an order of the phoenix pendant with two stones set in. The pendant had been Sirius' but the stones came from wedding bands Tonks and Remus each wore. Andromeda had wanted to remind him his family was always with him. His parent's names and wedding date were on the back.

No one but Lucius and the boys knew where the wedding was to be had. The others were all given portkeys. Molly and Andromeda got to help plan from a distance though. All they knew was while they wanted their loved ones there they wanted it to feel more like they eloped. Even Harry and his companions took a portkey.

George was the first one to speak as they stared in wonder "This is beautiful. Where are we?"

Harry smiled "In Scotland on the shores of Loch Awe."

Andromeda appeared "If the rest of you follow the trail you will come to the others."

Oliver took Teddy from his grandmother. He and George waited with Harry and the couple. They were in a beautiful wooded grove of trees blanketed in snow. They could see three shapes through the trees. They knew it was Draco with his dad and Blaise when the music began and the shapes moved. Andromeda seemed to know the timing as she motioned Oliver and George to go. Harry's heart was pounding when it was his turn.

Led through the trees they came to a beautiful open air amphitheatre set in one of the secluded gardens of the muggle inn it was on the property of. There were no chairs. Spells were used so the guests sat on the tiers of stone walls that created the horse shoe. For now Draco had his back to the guests as he watched Harry.

The minister started when Harry and Draco stood together facing their guests "We are gathered here today to join these men as husbands. Who gives them into this union?'

Like both being walked down the aisle they broke tradition again. All of the guests answered in unison. "We all do."

Draco and Harry went for an ancient Celtic bonding ceremony. It wasn't common any more but they felt it fit them better. Instead of giving them rings George and Blaise pierced their hands. As the minister bound their hands their blood mixed. It would have been simple symbolism for muggles but their bond rings were formed from the very magic. They chose no personal vows for they already spoke those in private.

After they shared wine from one goblet the minister announced "You are now husbands. You may seal the union with a kiss."

Draco and Harry shared a long warm kiss before Teddy broke them up. Draco just laughed. "I think someone is reminding us the wedding is for three."

Harry was so happy to see them together. He knew Draco loved Teddy as a cousin but asking him to be Papa was different. Draco never had to be asked though. He happily stepped into the roll well before now. Their hands free the went to sign not only wedding contracts but adoption papers for Teddy.

The minister concluded with "Now for the first time as husbands Harry and Draco Malfoy-Potter. And their son."


Muggles would have kept to the in doors in December. Lucius rented out the entire inn for them and though the dinner was indoors snow had been cleared out on the lawns and the dock creating a dance area. Wizards of course had the benefit of warming spells. The snow still surrounded them and the spells on the torches when is went dark made them look like the flames were of ice. Even in winter they had wanted to dance under the stars. Lucius had tried to suggest a live band but the boys vetoed it. They wanted simple and romantic so spells brought music from the inn.

A beautiful library with a massive fireplace had been chosen due to it's location right off the dance area and one wall of floor to ceiling windows looking onto the loch. The tables had been done in simple linens with candles simply set in boughs on the table as center pieces. The mantle was the same but had some lilies and daffodils in them for their mums. A simple three course meal with a main course of Angus beef and wild potatoes was served. Lucius of course provided the best wine.

Lucius looked around "Your mum would not have approved. It would have been a minimum five courses and a string quartet. Proper china and a decorator."

Draco smiled "If mum had been here to plan it we could let her have it. But this suits us better."

Lucius hugged both boys "I know it does. And I am happy I could help."

Harry was no the only one who went to a graveyard that morning. Draco had been to see his mum and Uncle. Both grooms were missing a chunk of their family. And though they had plenty of people here for them today they wanted to include them. Draco had his own new piece as it seemed his dad and Aunt thought alike. His was a simple disc pendant with a snake and daffodil on it for his mum and Uncle.

Molly had provided the cake. Again the boys stopped Lucius from going over board. He was going to take the cakes and have them formed and decorated into a proper wedding cake. They wanted them just the way they were. George laughed when the first course soup as imported from the now famous London deli.

Draco led them all out "We have arranged for sleigh rides around the loch for sunset before we dance."

Harry was helped into one with Teddy and his husband "I am happy Minerva would lend us these."

The Black Lake turned out to be connected by water ways. It had been no trouble to send the thestrals and sleighs for them to use. The guests were staying at the inn over night so even the small kids came in the sleigh. House elves from the Malfoys were baby-sitters in the rooms. Back from the ride Harry and Draco shared their first dance out on the dock before joining the others. The night ended with a fireworks show from George custom made for tonight.

Andromeda brought a sleepy Teddy for them to say goodbye to and a portkey "Have fun and don't worry about any thing. You deserve it."
