Time just seemed to fly by and before Rory really knew what was happening it was time for them to leave The Plaza. The limo was waiting downstairs for them and as they made their way out to the car, they realized they had significantly underestimated the level of interest that there would be from the press – photographers were clambering over each other, waiting to catch the first glimpse of the woman that was marrying into the Huntzberger dynasty.

The limo made the short journey over to The Yale Club. They had decided to hold the wedding ceremony in the library – as a book-lover, being surrounded by all the old books seemed like the perfect place to Rory.

As she stood outside the door to the room with Christy the wedding organizer, her mom and Kate, Rory suddenly felt very nervous and a little wobbly. She was consumed with thoughts flooding her mind about the magnitude of the family she was marrying into, the life that she was going to live, the awareness that she was going to be bringing two new Huntzberger heirs into the world – and of course the fact that after all this time she and Logan were finally going to commit themselves to each other once and for all.

"Hey, Rory, are you okay kid?" Lorelai asked with concern as she noticed that her daughter suddenly looked very pale. "Do you want to sit down for a moment?"

Rory nodded and Kate guided her over to sit in a chair.

"What's the matter, Rory?" Kate asked.

"I…I am okay, I just felt very overwhelmed for a moment there. I really can't believe that this is happening or that Logan is waiting for me, right there on the other side of the door" she said. "I'll be fine, just need to catch my breath."

"You know, it's not too late to bolt" Lorelai winked "Pretty sure the limo is still outside."

Rory smiled at her mom. "Nice try."

Inside the library, a nervous Logan stood waiting for Rory to make her entrance. He was fiddling with his hands and pushing his hair through his hands – the wait just making him more anxious. He'd never dared dream that they'd actually get to his point and now it was so tantalizingly close he didn't want to wait another minute.

"Relax mate," Finn said as he put his hand on Logan's shoulder.

"She's late," Logan said.

"Only by a few minutes Logan, she's not going to stand you up," Colin said as he patted his friend on the back.

Just then they heard the music start up and the door to the library slowly opened. Logan closed his eyes and took a deep breath before turning around to watch Rory, now on the arm of Lorelai, enter the room. She was absolutely breathtaking, he was pretty sure he'd never seen anyone look as beautiful as she did in that moment. He made a mental note to thank his mother for her helping his fiancé to find the amazing dress that she was wearing, that only served to enhance her natural beauty. He smiled as his eyes moved lower and he could just about make out the gentle swelling of her tummy.

As Logan watched Rory, the absolute love of his life, walking down the aisle towards him, it felt just like time had stopped, everything else around him was a blur and he could see only her. Their eyes locked on each other and he broke out into a wide smile as finally, she reached him. He reached out and took hold of her hand.

"You look…magnificent" he whispered "and damn hot I might add."

"Thanks" she blushed slightly.

"Ready to do this?" he asked her with a slightly raised eyebrow.

"Absolutely. You jump I jump Jack" she smiled.

The ceremony was beautiful and for the both of them, it was all about making memories for themselves and their families that would last forever. It had taken some badgering from Emily but Rory and Logan had agreed to write their own vows. Initially Rory had hated the idea but she eventually warmed up to it and in the end, she actually liked the idea of exchanging personal vows.

Logan turned to Rory and took her hands in his and cleared his throat before he started to speak.

"Tolstoy wrote of two lovers - of a man that did not know where he ended and his beloved began. This is how I love you, Rory - unceasingly and conjoined in expectation as we become one. There are no words, and no proper emotions for what I feel today, the idea that you are going to be my wife is overwhelming, I am truly the luckiest man alive.

I promise to make your dreams mine, to support you, to cherish you and to devote my life to your happiness. I vow to carry you and to be carried by you, to journey with you and to love each minute because of our travels together. We will live a life of constant adventure together."

As Logan pushed the platinum band on to her finger, Rory had to hold back the tears that were threatening to escape from her eyes because she knew that her turn to speak was coming up. Keeping hold of Logan's hands she looked at him and took a deep breath and he smiled and nodded at her to encourage her on.

"Logan, I always knew that someday, somewhere, someone would walk into my life and make me realize exactly why I was meant to be. The first time I saw you I realized that you were him. It was you. You are every reason, every hope, and every dream I've ever had, and no matter what happens to us in the future, every day we are together is the greatest day of my life. I will always be yours.

I admire how you are fearless - you are not afraid to be yourself. I promise to always encourage you and to try to keep a light heart and a sense of humor. I will be honest, respectful and supportive of your dreams and goals. But most of all, I promise to trust and love you with all my heart, as your wife, and cherish you with all my soul forever and ever."

Logan smiled as Rory placed the wedding band on his finger and they turned back to face the officiant.

"Throughout this ceremony, Rory and Logan have vowed, in our presence, to be loyal and loving towards each other. They have formalized the existence of the bond between them with words spoken and with the giving and receiving of rings. Therefore, it is my pleasure to now pronounce them husband and wife. You may now kiss your bride!"

"Finally," Logan said as he pulled Rory in close and kissed deeply and passionately her before dipping her down backwards for a truly Hollywood kiss. Rory kissed him back, just as deeply, sending all her love for him through that kiss. They lingered for slightly longer than might be considered appropriate and only broke away from each other when they heard Finn catcalling them and their guests erupted in applause and whistles as they kissed for the first time as a married couple.

After the couple had finally said their 'I Do's' they were whisked off for their formal photographs which they had taken in two of Rory's favorite buildings – the New York Public Library and the magnificent Grand Central Terminal, both of which were only a short distance away. They enjoyed having a few precious moments to themselves in the back of the limo as they headed back to join the wedding reception.

"Can you believe we are actually married now?" Rory said as Logan intertwined his hand with hers as they sat in the back of the car. "It doesn't feel real."

"I know, it all kind of feels like a dream," he said. "I never dared hope we would ever find ourselves here."

Rory smiled "You were totally right yesterday you know…"

"Yesterday?" he asked, trying to think back.

"When I said I thought I was the happiest I could ever be? NOW I am the happiest I could be!" she said as she leaned over to give her new husband a kiss.

Rory and Logan arrived back at The Yale Club where the celebrations had been continuing and they joined their guests on the roof terrace for cocktail hour overlooking the glittering lights of the city. Tuxedo-clad club waiters greeted guests with champagne and served hors d'oeuvres alongside a performance from The Whiffenpoofs – Yale's esteemed acapella group which had been her grandfather Richard's idea.

The Yale Club was a grand old affair with a magnificently opulent ballroom where the reception was to be held, yet in spite of its old world elegance, it managed to retain a sense of intimacy and Rory couldn't help but feel that it was completely perfect. It really couldn't have been a better pick for their wedding ceremony and reception and she, rather begrudgingly, had to hand it to Shira, she'd done an amazing job in planning the wedding.

After a little time mingling and sipping on champagne it was time to head into the ballroom for a night of dinner and dancing. When Rory and Logan walked into the ballroom hand-in-hand, they were completely overwhelmed by the beauty, elegance, and warmth of the room. It felt so romantic and magical – everything that Rory would have wanted it to be. Shira had arranged for the room to be decked out with dozens of gorgeous white roses dripping in crystals and made even more romantic by the hundreds of candles scattered across the tables bathing the room in a warm yellow glow straight out of a fairy tale.

Everyone took their places for dinner but Rory was far too excited to eat very much, though an over-protective Logan kept a watchful eye on her and made sure that she at least had something to keep her energy up. Their guests enjoyed a sumptuous meal that started with an appetizer of baked goat cheese soufflé salad, followed by the main course of pan-seared filet mignon in a red wine shallot sauce. When it came to dessert, alongside their delicious three-tier red velvet wedding cake, they also served chocolate-dipped strawberries and white and dark chocolate truffles.

When it came to the speeches Logan had prepared a heartfelt speech about the journey him and Rory had taken to get to this point, which made most of the women in the room rather emotional while Finn and Colin delivered an entertaining best man double act. In place of the traditional father of the bride speech, Rory had asked Lorelai to speak. Rory had deliberated long and hard about who she should have given her away, at her first wedding she had gone with tradition and Christopher had walked her down the aisle. This time she really thought about it and ultimately felt it was too difficult for her to make a decision as to whether Christopher, who she had a strained relationship with, or Luke who had been there for her entire life should give her away which is why in the end she decided on the person who had been both mom and dad to her throughout her life. Lorelai.

Lorelai nervously stood up to make her speech. She wasn't normally so self-conscious about all eyes being on her but she really wanted to make a good job of the speech for Rory. She knew it meant a lot of her daughter and as their relationship had been slightly rocky over recent months it felt even more important that she got this right.

"Rory, You have brought so much happiness and love to my life. You were my whole family for so many years and now you are going to experience this joy with a family of your own. I am so very proud of everything that you have accomplished in your life and the woman you have become.

I have been wrong plenty of times about so many things but I've learned a few things over the past few years and I wanted to share these with both of you.

Rory and Logan. Take as many opportunities as you can to tell each other how much you love and respect one another. Remember, and this was a really hard one for me to grasp - that respect can mean appreciating another's viewpoint, so don't stifle him and don't let him stifle you.

Have fun together. Find new and exciting ways to experience life. Set goals that you both want, and you'll enjoy the journey with a companion.

Remember your commitment, because as you well know, things will get hard. It is those difficult times that most strain our relationships, so always remember to find the rainbow after a storm.

I love you, Rory. Logan, look after my baby girl. I wish you both a lifetime of love and happiness."

Lorelai looked across at the daughter who was sitting only a few chairs away and saw her wiping away tears. Rory stood up and moved towards her mom before they hugged tightly.

"Thank you mom" Rory whispered "I love you"

"Love you too kiddo," Lorelai said warmly.

After the speeches were concluded, it was time for Rory and Logan to take to the floor for their first dance. Rory had left Logan in charge of picking the song and he had thought about for a long time. One day as he was driving back into the city a song had come on the radio and it was perfect. He had finally found something where the lyrics meant something to him and he knew that it said everything he wanted it to.

When I look into your eyes
It's like watching the night sky
Or a beautiful sunrise
There's so much they hold
And just like them old stars
I see that you've come so far
To be right where you are
How old is your soul?

Well I won't give up on us, even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love, I'm still looking up

And when you're needing your space, to do some navigating
I'll be here patiently waiting, to see what you find

'Cause even the stars they burn
Some even fall to the earth
We've got a lot to learn
God knows we're worth it
No, I won't give up

I don't wanna be someone who walks away so easily
I'm here to stay and make the difference that I can make
Our differences they do a lot to teach us how to use
The tools and gifts we got yeah, we got a lot at stake
And in the end, you're still my friend at least we did intend
For us to work we didn't break, we didn't burn
We had to learn how to bend without the world caving in
I had to learn what I've got, and what I'm not and who I am

I won't give up on us, even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up, still looking up.

Logan took Rory into his arms and they danced together slowly. Rory laid her head on Logan's shoulder, listening to the lyrics of the song - they were a perfect fit for them and their life. As painful as it had been, they'd had to set each free before they could get to this point. They had both needed to discover who they really were and now having done that, and made mistakes, Rory felt confident that they could handle whatever life was to throw at them. In that moment it felt like it was just the two of them and that nobody else existed. They both knew that whatever happened in the future, they would remember that moment forever.

The rest of the evening flew by in a whirl of dancing and talking to their guests. Rory was making pleasantries with some family friends when she felt a tap on her shoulder. She turned around to see who it was.

"Jess" she smiled happily. "I thought you hadn't come."

Jess shrugged "I decided to stay away from the ceremony, you know, just in case."

"In case I decided I couldn't resist you and changed my mind?" she winked at him.

"Something like that" he laughed as he put his hands in his pockets.

"Well I am really glad you came" she smiled.

"Congratulations. You look good Rory, and happy, finally"

"Thanks, Jess," she said as she pulled him in for a hug and kissed him on the cheek.

As Jess pulled away from Rory, he spotted Logan watching their exchange from across the room. He nodded his acknowledgement at Logan who smiled politely and tipped his glass in his direction. None of this went unnoticed by Rory who smiled gratefully at Logan – she knew that he'd never be one hundred percent comfortable with her relationship with Jess but she was thankful that he was going to accept it was what it was.

Before they knew it the day was almost over. Rory and Logan's amazing wedding day had been truly magical in every way. Not only was the day full of love and happiness, but every detail had been thoroughly thought out and planned to perfection – which in the most part was down to Shira. The classic Yale Club venue had set the scene for a day of elegance and glamour and everything was exactly what Rory had hoped for, maybe even more. The day was just gorgeous and everything had gone so smoothly.

Sad to be reaching the end of their wonderful day, the happy couple were whisked back to the suite at The Plaza where Honor had been working her magic and had set up the room beautiful with candles and strewn the room with rose petals.

Completely exhausted from the day – they both collapsed on the bed, Rory surrounded in a big heap of tulle.

"It's been a great day," Logan said as he leaned over and kissed her on the top of he head.

"It really has, it's been amazing" she sighed "I love you so much," she said turning to her new husband.

Logan pulled her closer to him. "I love you too Mrs Huntzberger"
