The next morning Mary woke up to the smell of pancakes. She got out of bed
and went into the kitchen. Everyone was sitting at the table eating
breakfast. She grabbed an apple, and plopped down into the chair next to
Ally.
"Morning." Said Mary between bites.
"Good morning."
"When are we gonna start getting me ready?"
"Well Mary, the wedding starts at 3:30, so we will start at noon." Said Annie, checking her watch. "So that gives you and hour to do whatever you want."
"I wanna call Robbie." Mary complained.
"Nope, you can't, you will see him at the church." Replied Ally.
"Fine."
Mary finished her apple and sat on the couch, she was going to watch television until noon.
Meanwhile in the Camden house, Robbie was also just waking up. He was sleeping in Simon's extra bed. He looked over, to see Simon still asleep. Robbie looked at the clock.
"Oh shit its already 11." He cried jumping out of bed.
"What?" asked Simon, woken up by Robbie's exclamation.
"It is 11, we have to be up."
"Man, the wedding starts at 3:30, so we have to be at the church at 3. We only need an hour to get ready, so go back to sleep."
"I can't."
"Why?"
"I am too nervous and excited."
"Oh my god, okay I am awake." Said Simon getting out of bed.
They went down stairs and ate breakfast. The colonel, Eric, and Annie's father were already up, they were all around the table chatting.
At 12:00 sharp, Mary and the rest of the women began getting ready. First they all took showers. Mary showered last, so she wouldn't be hurried by people awaiting the shower. She got in and let the hot water fall over her body, she then washed her body and hair, she got out and dried off. She got on her bath robe and went to her room. When she got into it, she saw Lexa, Ally, and Lucy all putting their dresses on. Mary glanced at the clock it was 1:00.
"How does this look?" asked Lucy as she spun around in her dress.
"Awesome." Replied Ally.
"Mary lets get you dressed." Called Annie, as she walked into the room.
First Mary went into the bathroom and put her under wear and bra on, then she went back into the room, and slipped on her dress. She stood in front of the mirror as her mom fluffed and fixed the dress. Everyone was already dressed, now it was hair and make up time. Lucy did Alexa's, Allison's, and Ruthie's. Then Ally and Lexa did Annie's and Mary's. Mary didn't have a lot of make up, but even with what she had, she looked beautiful. Ally did her hair, since she was going to beauty school. She put it up in a high pony tail, with all the ends curled and bobby pinned onto her head. All the bride's maids had their hair in half pony tails, with curls all over. Last they all put on their shoes and waited in the living room for the limo to get there.
While all this was happening, back in the house, everyone was running around.
"Where's my jacket?" yelled Robbie, as he ran into Simon's room.
"Right here." Said Simon throwing it to him.
Robbie had on a traditional tuxedo, he had his hair slicked back, and he looked like a model.
"You guys lets go!" yelled Eric up the stairs.
"Okay, lets go."
They all piled into different cars, and headed to the church.
******************************************************
"The limo is here." Said Lucy peering out the window.
"Okay."
They all went downstairs carefully trying not to step on their dresses. They had two limos, Annie, Mary, Lucy, Ruthie, and Robbie's mom went in one limo, and Ally, Lexa, Grandma Ruth, and Ginger went in the other.
They arrived at the church, and everyone got out. Mary waited until she knew Robbie was in the church to get out. She hurried to the back room, and joined her mother and the rest of her wedding party. Mary was so nervous she was pacing back and forth.
"Mary, stop. I need to freshen your make up, we are starting in 10 minutes." Said Ally, beckoning for Mary to sit down.
After ally finished her make up, all the groom's men entered the room. They were just about to start, so they lined up in order. The music started playing and they started to walk out. Kaitlynn and Sam and David first, then Ruthie and Robbie's youngest brother, then Ally and another one of Robbie's brother, then Alexa and Robbie's oldest brother. They all went out and people smiled as the passed, they took their places at the front, and then Simon and Lucy came out, as the maid of honor and the best man. They took their places at the top, and then the music changed. Robbie stood at the front, awaiting Mary. Everyone stood up, as the doors opened and Mary walked out with Matt on her arm. She had a tiara on her head, and a veil that went down to her waist on. When Robbie caught sight of her, his eyes welled up.
"She is so beautiful." He thought to himself.
She slowly made her way down the aisle, when she got to the front Matt lifted her veil, and gave her a kiss on the cheek. He then went to sit down. Mary and Robbie were finally together, they held hands and turned to the minister.
"Dearly beloved we are gathered here today to witness the joyous event of Robbie Palmer and Mary Camden's wedding. They have chose to recite their own vows, so Robbie you can start." Said Eric.
"Mary from the moment I met you, you were all I could think about day and night. You were my everything, and I lost you once, but thanks to God I got you back. I love you with all my heart and I will do anything to make you happy." He said stifling back a tear. "Mary you are my everything and I love you, you complete me, and I can't imagine my life with out you. I love you." He said as a tear went down his cheek.
"Mary you can go."
Mary was in tears, but she started.
"Robbie if I were to describe my life in one word, I would have to say blessed. I am blessed in all aspects of my life. I am so lucky to have someone like you, to care for me, and to love me. I lost you once and it was the most miserable time in my life. I had an empty space and my heart, and when I was back with you it was gone. You give me something to live for, and I thank you for making my life truly blessed." Said Mary smiling as tears went down her cheeks.
"Robbie Palmer, do you take Mary Camden to be your lawfully wedded wife, in sickness and in health as long as you both shall live?"
"I do."
"Mary Camden do you take Robbie Palmer to be your lawfully wedded wife, in sickness and in health as long as you both shall live?"
"I do." Mary replied.
"May I please have the rings?"
Robbie placed the ring on Mary's finger, and then she did the same.
"By the power invested in me, by the state of California, I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride."
Robbie leaned in and kissed Mary lightly but passionately on the lips, the audience was applauding. They two newly weds finally pulled away, and ran down the aisle hand in hand, as everyone threw rice. They ran out into an awaiting limo, which was going to take them to the hall.
They got into the limo and were both smiling.
"We're finally married." Exclaimed Robbie.
"I know, I am so excited."
"You're excited? I am excited." Said Robbie playfully.
"I love you baby."
"I love you too hunny." He said kissing her strongly on the lips. He then pushed a stray lock of hair from her face, and stared deep into her eyes.
When they finally reached the hall, everyone was already there, and they had to wait some time in the limo, to make their grand entrance. Finally they got the signal they could come in, and walked slowly hand in hand into the hall. They waited in a back room, before they went out.
"May I now present you, Mr. and Mrs. Robbie Palmer!" said some man over the loud speaker.
Everyone applauded, as they made their way to their table. They were sitting at the front of the room at a table, which was beautifully decorated, and their wedding parties sat at table to either side of this one. The hall was decorated with white and baby blue decorations; each table had a camera on it, and also a bowl with an exotic looking fish, and the walls were covered with flowers. It was beautiful.
They first ate their appetizers, then their main courses. Everyone chatted gaily and enjoyed themselves. Robbie noticed Mary wasn't eating.
"What's wrong baby?" he inquired touching her hand.
"I am too nervous to eat."
"Nervous about what? We are already married."
"I am nervous about tonight." She said just above a whisper.
"Oh, baby don't worry it'll be fine, I promise." He said smiling.
"Okay."
"You don't look convinced."
"I am, I am sorry."
"Are you having fun?"
"I am having a blast."
They finished eating, and it was time to cut the cake. They made their way over to it. First Robbie cut a little piece and fed it to Mary, he was careful not to get it on her face. Then Mary picked up the fork, and took a piece off, she deliberately smeared it across his lips.
"Hey!"
"I am sorry, my hand must of slipped." She laughed.
"Well, you are still gonna have to get it off."
"Fine." She said, as she licked his lips and sucked the frosting off.
They then went back to their table, right as they sat down, the voice came over the loud speaker again.
"It is now time for the couple's first dance."
Robbie took Mary's hand and led her out onto the dance floor. The music started, it was My Everything, by 98 degrees. They swayed to the music, as Mary rested her head on his shoulder.
"I love you." He whispered into her ear.
"I love you too." She whispered back.
After everyone danced and laughed and talked, the night started to wind down, but Mary still had to throw her bouquet. But first Robbie had to throw her garter to the awaiting single men. A chair was placed in the middle of the room, Mary sat down and Robbie stood in front of her. He lifted up her dress, being very careful that no one else saw underneath, he ran his hands over her thigh and kissed her legs. Mary was smiling as Robbie was doing this, finally he came out holding the garter, he tossed it. All the men lunged towards it, but Matt caught it. He looked over at Sarah, who was laughing.
Then finally it was time to throw the bouquet, all the single women went out onto the floor. Mary stood backwards and threw the bouquet over her head. When all the commotion was over, you could see Ally clutching to the bouquet. May started laughing.
"Congrats Ally." She said patting her on the back.
She then went back over to Robbie.
"What do you say we get out of here?" he proposed raising an eyebrow.
"Okay, lets go." Mary giggled.
They said their good-byes to everyone and then made their way to the limo. They were going to a hotel for the night, before leaving the next nigh on their honeymoon.
"Morning." Said Mary between bites.
"Good morning."
"When are we gonna start getting me ready?"
"Well Mary, the wedding starts at 3:30, so we will start at noon." Said Annie, checking her watch. "So that gives you and hour to do whatever you want."
