Chapter 2: Wedding of the Year!
January and February passed quickly as everyone started planning for the wedding! Everyday, the guys planned all the technical stuff, while the girls worried about the dresses and who would do what at the wedding! Mai and Serenity were going to be bridesmaids, and Tristian and Joey were going to be ushers while Yugi was the best man. Mai had just booked a local priest to perform the ceremony! All that was left was the dress!
Serenity and Mai giggled as they dragged Tea into a boutique. Wedding dresses of all fashions filled the store. A saleslady addressed them; "We have a dress ready!" Tea was surprised, but Mai grinned, "Relax, you'll like. Just try it on and shut your eyes." Tea reluctantly agreed and when she opened her eyes again, she was astounded! The dress was long and flowing, with a silk skirt, narrow sleeves and a low collar-line. She looked incredibly sophisticated. "Wow," Serenity exclaimed, "wait 'til Yami sees you!" Tea laughed!
Meanwhile, the guys were working on the music. Joey hadn't been able to find a decent quartet to perform. They were either booked or doing another gig. So, they were stuck using a CD. They were a local store, looking through the classical music section. So far no one had any luck, that is until Yami picked up a CD that had a harp rendition of Pachabel's Canon in D. He nodded to Yugi, "I think this will do." Yugi agreed: "Nice choice." Paying up, they left the store. There were only 24 hours left until the wedding.
The next morning couldn't have been more perfect for a wedding! The sun was out, the air was pleasant, and it was nice out. At the chapel, everyone was getting ready. The guys were showing the guest to their seats, while Tea was putting on her wedding dress. "How do I look," she asked Mai and Serenity. They both said she looked fabulous. Yugi knocked on the door: "It's almost time." Tea blushed deeply. She hurried out, and took her father's arm, and the music started.
Down the aisle they went Mai and Joey, Serenity and Tristian, and then Mr. Gardener and Tea. At the altar, Yami took Tea's hand s into his as the priest said, "Dearly beloved, we are gathered today for the union of these two people." He turned to Yami, "Do you, Yami, take this woman to be your wife?" "I do." "Do you, Tea, take this man to be your husband?" "I do." Yami placed the wedding band on her hand and vice versa. "You may now kiss the bride." Yami took the offer and kissed her passionately! Everyone cheered as the happy and blushing couple headed to the reception.
At the reception, there was a large wedding cake and a turkey dish ready to go. After everyone ate, Joey raised a toast, "Here is to Yami and Tea, for many happy years together! Now, as tradition calls for, the newlyweds have the first dance." Yami lent Tea his arm and the gracefully danced to tunes of Bach, Czerny, and others.
That night, Yami and Tea were out on the balcony at the four-star hotel they were staying at on their honeymoon. Yami took into her arms and kissed her gently under the moonlight.
