6 weeks later - February build up to the wedding
All the preparations had been done for the wedding, Amy had collected Penny and Bernadette's bridesmaid dresses and Penny and Bernadette had found christening gowns for Eve and Finlay, Mary had brought Sheldon and Georges christening gown for Jamie to wear to which Amy and Sheldon had agreed to and as Jamie was now walking a few steps on his own, Penny and Bernadette would walk down the aisle with him in between them, Amy had decided that Jamie could have the rings in a small pouch hanging from his neck but not until they were at the actual church itself and Amy and Sheldon had booked two weeks off work as well
Everybody had relocated to Beverley Hills the day before the Wedding and Christening, Amy and Sheldon had agreed not to spend the night together and Sheldon was going to be spend the evening with Leonard while Penny shared with Amy in a separate room as the honeymoon suite was not available until the next day, the hotel as part of the wedding experience were providing a hair and make up team for the bridal party on the day of the wedding as well
Instead of separate Hen and Stag parties, the group had a meal together in the hotel before retiring to their rooms, Amy and Sheldon were left alone in the hotel bar saying their goodbyes, Sandra had already taken Jamie to her room
"I know we are only spending the night apart but I already feel I don't want to do that" said Sheldon as they finished off their drinks
"I know but its tradition and just think tomorrow night we will be married and can make the most of the excellent honeymoon suite" replied Amy smiling at him and stroking his arm
"Oh believe me, you are in for some of my best moves once I have you alone, Dr Fowler" said Sheldon leaning over to kiss Amy
"Hoo, come on it's nearly midnight, let's finish these up and go back" replied Amy
They walked to the lift hand in hand and when the lift arrived they were alone and resumed kissing in the empty lift until it got to their floor, Sheldon walked Amy to their room and kissed her again before reluctantly leaving her to go in, Amy found Penny awake and watching TV
"Fancy a nightcap? Asked Penny indicating her glass of non alcoholic wine and a complimentary bottle of champagne in an ice bucket on top of the mini fridge
"No if I have anymore I wont be able to function during the wedding, was Finlay ok going with your mom?
"Oh yes, I fed up and he dropped off straight away" replied Penny
"I just had to leave Sheldon outside, I wish we could forget about tradition and just spend the night together" moaned Amy flopping down on her own bed
"You will both need rest before tomorrow anyway" said Penny reasonably
"I know and the stylist team will be here at 11am for all of us, we should be able to use the honeymoon suite by then"
After chatting for a few more minutes, they drifted off to sleep but not before Amy had exchanged text messages with Sheldon wishing each other good night, the next morning both their moms brought Jamie and Finlay to them before they got ready for the day
"Amy I forgot to ask who are your witnesses. Asked Penny as she cuddled Finlay after his feed
"We decided on Howard and Raj as they are not in the actual wedding" replied Amy
"Did you organise a cake for Jamie's birthday today as well? Asked Sandra
"Yes we decided to have a two tier Christening and Birthday cake as we felt that was better" replied Amy
"One already, time goes so quick" commented Penny as their was a knocking at the door
Amy opened it to find Bernadette and the hotel manager
"Hi Dr Fowler, the honeymoon suite is now available if you wish to move over there, the stylist team are in their ready for you all" said the manager
"Thank you, we will just clear up here first" replied Amy
"Amy leave it, I will do that later, the room is booked for two nights after all" replied Sandra
"Ok lets go" said Amy she collected her dress which had been hanging from the wardrobe, her tiara and the wedding rings and put Jamie in his buggy and passed him to Sandra before the group followed the manager to the honeymoon suite
"I have decided not to dress Eve until nearer the actual wedding, although when I say that I mean Howard will be dressing her as I will be getting ready myself" said Bernadette as they entered the room
"Same here because I will need to feed Finlay again, but my mom will look after him during the wedding" added Penny
The stylist team ushered the three ladies to their little set up points and started on their hair after getting pointers from the girls as to how they would like it, once that was done, they had their make up applied and afterwards dressed themselves, Jamie was busy being walked around the room by Sandra and Deborah to get in some walking practice and Amy finally put her gown on, she had her hair curled slightly and it was flowing down her back
"Amy you really look beautiful in the dress" said Penny and Bernadette together
"I agree" said her mom tearfully
"Thank you, I feel good about myself today and I am marrying the man I love" replied Amy smiling at them all and then putting her tiara on
"Sheldon will love your dress" added Penny
Missy stopped by to take pictures of the bridal party before they left, she had brought Jade with her
"Amy has Sheldon ordered you transport to take you to the church? Asked Missy once the pictures were over and Missy had to sit down because the baby was kicking
"Oh yes, he's ordered a stretch limo" replied Amy
"Oh good, I just saw Sheldon leaving with Leonard and George, he looks very handsome and that's saying something from me his sister" replied Missy rubbing and patting her belly
"Are you going to be ok during the wedding? Asked Amy noticing Missy's discomfort
"Yes, Billy and I are also excited as we have our 20 week scan when we get back to Texas"
"Are you going to find out the sex? Asked Penny
"Yes that was something we agreed on, I am a bit like Sheldon in that I don't like surprises, although whatever this is, will be nice" replied Missy
After sharing a bottle of champagne around the group, they had word from reception that the limo had arrived, Missy and Jade left to go to the church as did Deborah with Finlay, Amy beamed at her two bridesmaids and her mom who was walking her down the aisle
"Let's do this" said Amy excitedly as they left the room, although not before bumping into the manager again
"Dr Fowler, I have your requirements for the room and we will do that for you now, good luck with the wedding" said the manager
"Thank you, you are all very accommodating"
"Not a problem" replied the manager shaking her hand
The church was only a few minutes from the hotel and the limo was stocked with more champagne which the group avoided as they already had plenty in the hotel room and Amy wanted to be alert for the actual wedding, the limo stopped outside the church and they saw George standing outside waiting for them
"Hi girls, you are look beautiful, I shall tell them you are ready" said George disappearing inside
Meanwhile Sheldon and Leonard were at the front, Sheldon was feeling somewhat nervous, although he didn't know why and Leonard had been trying to reassure him without success when George appeared
"They are here, Sheldon you are one lucky man" said George as the string quartet that Amy had hired started up with "The way you look tonight"
Everybody stood and waited for Amy to appear in the aisle and she slow walked down with her arm linked through her mothers, everybody awed when they saw Jamie walking between Penny and Bernadette, when they finally reached Sheldon, Amy beamed widely at him and Sheldon kissed her cheek and whispered in her ear that she looked gorgeous before they stepped forwards to the vicar
"Dearly beloved we are gathered here today to witness the marriage of Sheldon and Amy, I must ask if there is anybody here present who objects to this wedding to say now or forever hold your peace" said the vicar
There was complete silence so the vicar continued with a prayer and a hymn before he asked Amy and Sheldon to say their vows to each other
"Amy if you take Sheldon's hands and please say your vows"
"I Amy take you, Sheldon to be my friend, my lover, the father of my children and my husband, I will be yours in times of plenty and in times of want, in times of sickness and in times of health, in times of joy and in times of sorrow, in times of failure and in times of triumph., I promise to cherish and respect you, to care and protect you, to comfort and encourage you and stay with you for all eternity"
"Now Sheldon your turn" said the vicar as Jamie could be heard complaining in the background, he had been put in his buggy as he kept wriggling in Penny's arms
"Amy I take you to be my wife, my partner in life and my one true love. I will cherish our union and love you more each day than I did the day before. I will trust you and respect you, laugh with you and cry with you, loving you faithfully through good times and bad, regardless of the obstacles we may face together. I give you my hand, my heart, and my love, from this day forward for as long as we both shall live"
After another hymn and prayer the vicar turned back to the couple
"Who has the rings?
"That would be Jamie" said Leonard as he took the pouch from Jamie's neck and put the rings on two small red pillows ready
"Thank you, now Amy if you take Sheldon's ring and finger and repeat after me please"
Amy listened and then repeated the words, she and Sheldon had gone with different ring vows as well
"I Amy Farrah Fowler give you this ring as a reminder that I will love, honour, and cherish you, in all times, in all places and in all ways, forever"
Amy slipped the ring onto Sheldon's finger and smiled at him before the Vicar spoke to Sheldon
"I Sheldon Lee Cooper, I offer you my love, I offer you my strength, I offer you my weaknesses. I offer you my support, I offer you my loyalty for as long as we both shall live" Sheldon slipped the ring onto Amy's finger and they stood holding hands and staring into each others eyes for a few moments
"I can now pronounce you Husband and Wife, congratulations, you may now kiss the bride" said the vicar
Sheldon didn't need telling twice, he pulled Amy into his arms and kissed her passionately and only broke away when the Vicar cleared his throat
"The christenings will start in 20 minutes, so you will have time beforehand to have photos outside the church"
"Thank you Vicar" said Sheldon and Amy together and walking back down the aisle hand in hand with Jamie walking behind them with Penny's help
Once outside they had all the wedding photos taken and were then called back inside for the triple christening, the babies behaved impeccably while the vicar poured water over their heads, even Finlay who was only three months old
There was more opportunity for photos outside the church before the group made their way back to the hotel, the ballroom had been set up for the wedding, the string quartet were going to be playing at the reception as well and once they got to the hotel, Sheldon and Amy were greeted by the manager
"Congratulations, if you come and wait in this ante room here, once your guests are all arrived and sat down then we shall collect you, please enjoy the nibbles and champagne provided though"
"Thank you" said Amy as the manager left them alone
"I can think of things I would much rather do" suggested Sheldon as they sat down on the small sofa
"I bet you can but I am sure you can wait a few hours" replied Amy as she lifted her dress to show Sheldon just what he would have to wait for
"How can I wait for that? I am ready now Amy" said Sheldon taking her hand and leading it to his evident erection
"I have had to wait and I have wanted to rip of the clothes since the minute I saw you all dressed up in church" replied Amy
"I love you so much Amy and I am so glad you agreed to marry me" said Sheldon as they cuddled on the couch
"I love you as well, I want to have a proper stable family and you are the perfect man to do that with" replied Amy smiling at him
Amy gently caressed his erection through his trousers, Sheldon pushed her back on the sofa and they had a frantic kissing session before they were interrupted by the arrival of Leonard although he knocked before entering
"Hi you two, everybody is ready now, I will give you a few minutes to sort yourselves out" said Leonard taking in the situation and leaving again
Amy quickly re did her lipstick, brushed her hair and adjusted her dress before taking Sheldon's hand and leaving the room, the manager was waiting at the entrance to the ballroom and nodded towards Leonard who had the microphone
"Now for the first time, may I introduce you to Dr and Dr Cooper" said Leonard to loud cheers from everybody
The string quartet played the music of Celebration from Kool and the gang as the entrance music and Sheldon and Amy appeared in the ballroom beaming again, after settling down, Leonard gave his own speech before Sheldon took his turn
"Now anybody who knows me, knows that I am not confident at giving speeches but with the support of my new wife, I will go ahead, I would like to thank you all for coming and to Leonard and George for being my best men and to Sandra for walking Amy down the aisle and to Penny and Bernadette for being her bridesmaids, I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with this beautiful lady and a very happy birthday to our son Jamie who is one today, please enjoy the reception and the dancing later" said Sheldon raising his glass to everybody and sitting down
"To Sheldon and Amy" said Leonard as the group chorused back
"I should also point out that there will be some cake cutting later on as you know we had all the children christened" added Sheldon standing up again before sitting back down and kissing Amy to wolf whistles from the assembled group
After the meal was had, Sheldon and Amy cut their own wedding cake, part of which was designed like the star trek enterprise, then the christening cakes were cut before they entered the dance floor for their first dance as a married couple
Their first dance was accompanied by the string quartet playing Stand by me by Ben E King, Sheldon felt nervous about dancing with everybody watching but with Amy pressed up against him the nerves soon faded and pretty quickly they were swaying around, gazing into each others eyes and sharing little kisses, once the song ended another romantic song went on and more couples joined them, Amy and Sheldon barely noticed as they only had eyes for each other
"Do you think people would notice if we disappeared? Asked Sheldon
"I think so, we have the ballroom until midnight, we might be able to get away just before that though, lets enjoy the evening, our moms are watching Jamie until tomorrow afternoon so we have plenty of time to do naughty things to each other" replied Amy giving him a sweet kiss
"Sure, can we go back to our table now? I need a drink" replied Sheldon
"Sure" replied Amy
"Shelley and Amy, married at last" said Mary as they arrived back at the top table
"Yes mom and we couldn't be happier" replied Sheldon kissing Amy's cheek
"Sheldon you just make sure you take care of Amy and Jamie ok? Said Meemaw who was the other side of Mary
"Of course" replied Sheldon
"You know what would be fun? We could have Jamie dancing with us in a little while, it might even wear him out so he sleeps for longer" suggested Amy once they had filled up on drink
"That would be fun, lets do it now while I still have the energy to dance" replied Sheldon
Amy collected Jamie from Sandra and they walked with him to the dance floor and the string quartet played You're my best friend by Queen for them, Jamie was loving being in Sheldon's arms dancing and was laughing all the way through
"Amy could I have the pleasure of this next dance? Asked George who appeared in front of them with Jade
"Of course, as long as Sheldon doesn't mind? Asked Amy guiding Jamie back to Sandra who was waiting for him at the edge of the dancefloor
"Of course I don't, perhaps Jade would like to dance with me? Replied Sheldon
"Delighted to" said Jade taking Sheldon's outstretched hand
"You know none of us ever thought we would see the day that Sheldon would even be interested in a girl, let alone have a baby with one and then marry her" said George as they danced together
"Well believe it or not, I was very much like Sheldon before I met him, very anti relationship but the more time I spent with Sheldon the more I wanted that to change and I am glad because he and Jamie are the best things that ever happened to me" replied Amy smiling at her new brother in law
"That's exactly what Sheldon said to me this morning" said George
"We do tend to think alike, that's why we are so well matched and maybe you and Jade will be next" suggested Amy
"Maybe, she's a lovely lade and I am as lucky as Sheldon is in that situation, I was a bit of a teenage tearaway which led to an unsettled adulthood and it was only in the last 5 years that I have wanted to settle down with anybody and Jade is perfect for that" replied George looking over at Jade who smiled back at him
The song ended and Amy and Sheldon returned back to their table, they spent the majority of it watching their guests and holding hands in between kisses and as they noticed the time approaching midnight they went back to the dance floor for some more dancing and then the leader of the string quartet announced the final dance would be to "I've had the time of my life" everybody joined them on the dance floor and at the end of the song Sheldon took the microphone, amazingly all three babies were now asleep in the ballroom despite all the noise
"Thank you to everybody that has attended the Wedding and Christenings, Amy and I are going to have a private celebration now but please enjoy the rest of the night" said Sheldon
Amy remembered to throw her bouquet, she had already checked to see where Jade was and deliberately threw it in her direction, Jade caught it much to Georges surprise, he raised an eyebrow at Amy and then winked at her as Sheldon whisked Amy out of the ballroom and up to their honeymoon suite
