A/N: A little light humor as our Geeks plan their wedding….
Sara Sidle was going absolutely crazy. She took an additional few months maternity leave as she had to plan her wedding. She wanted a nice small wedding but nothing very fancy. But between balancing caring for her daughter and planning her wedding it got a little nutsy. Grissom had been working extra shifts every now and then due to his duty as "Bug Man"
Sara sat in the kitchen pouring over wedding gown catalogues when Gil walked in. Just as he entered and was about to greet her Sara, who wasn't paying attention and didn't realize her fiancé walked in the room threw the magazine across the room and cursed.
"Well greetings my love" Grissom said as he picked up the magazine and set it on the counter.
"Hi Gil, I am so sorry about that" she said sheepishly. "I am not finding a gown that just suits me."
Gil smiled. "Sara it's ok, no need for apologies. I understand your anxiety" he said.
They were quiet. "Who are you going to pick as your best man Gil?" Sara asked.
Gil furrowed his brow. "I-I haven't thought about that…" he said and after grabbing a water from their fridge he sat down.
"Well we you need to pick your best man and ushers, just like I need to pick my maid of honour and bride's maid. " Sara said and played with the placemat on the table.
"I'll probably pick Catherine as my Matron of Honour…well she's divorced so is it Maid or Matron? I know Matron is for married women…" she babbled.
"I don't know Sara – we'll ask her anyway and we will get her input on that. As for a bride's maid… I have no clue. I don't have any other real good friends Gil" she said.
"Well I think I'm going to pick Brass as my best man. He is one of my dearest friends. Then the ushers… well do I need one or two… I don't know I'd probably pick Nick or Warrick but both of them are like sons to me…" Gil said and sighed. He looked at the dog who just wagged his tail expecting a treat.
"You think Hank here will be a good ring bearer?" Gil asked playfully.
"Only if we ask our neighbour if we can use her cat as the flower girl." Sara laughed.
Gil began to laugh too. "I can just see it. Queenie dressed in kitty cat dress clutching flower in her teeth sitting on top of Hank who has the rings in a basket around his neck."
That set both Gil and Sara into a fit of hysterical laughter.
"What about Wendy or Mandy. Are you close to either of those girls? You could chose one of them to be your bride's maid." Gil suggested.
"Yea I could … I think I'm closer to Wendy for some reason." Sara said.
Sara had a thought. Well Catherine is my Matron of Honour, well why not have both Mandy and Wendy as my bride's maids that way you can have Both Nick and Warrick as your ushers."
"That, my dear will work." Gil told her.
"What about Greg? Do you think he'll feel bad he's not in the wedding party?"
"Don't you worry about Greg, he will play a role in our wedding. Didn't he taken Videography at some point? We could ask him to video our wedding." Gil said with a smile.
"Judy, you know our evening receptionist, well she works as a pastry chef on weekends and a few days a week, she has shown me pictures of various wedding cakes she's baked." Sara said with excitement.
They looked at each other with love and joy. Their wedding was getting pulled together and hopefully when they ask Greg to be the videographer and Judy to bake their cake, they'd agree.
Suddenly Sara looked at Gil. "I think we have forgotten a very very important detail Gil. We're planning this wedding to take place in about 9 months. But do you realize something very important?" she asked waiting to see if he came to the same conclusion about what they had forgotten.
Gil looked at his fiancée. "WE HAVEN'T EVEN TOLD THE TEAM!" he said and they collapsed in each other's arms laughing hysterically, which set Hank off into barks.
