"You know I'm amazed," Prue said. "At what?" Piper asked. "That John has been trying to explain Hockey scoring to Leo and Cole for over a half an hour and they still don't get it?" Prue smirked, "No that's not it, although I must say that's pretty amusing." "I know Phoebe said raising her hand. "It's that you actually broke down and selected Celine's version of the "Power of Love," as yours and John's first song to dance to as husband and wife. Prue shook her head. "Okay, second guess," Phoebe, continued. "Could it be that Piper actually got Celine, Leanne, and even Cher to come and actually perform all of our first songs to dance to at this reception? Didn't Mom and Dad look so adorable dancing to After All?"
"Yes they did and that's along the lines of what I was thinking to begin with. I can't believe that we actually witnessed the day where we sent our reunited parents off on their second honeymoon. "That is pretty cool no matter how you slice it, "Phoebe agreed. "You know what I think is amazing?" Piper asked. "Why don't you tell us?" Prue prompted.
"I was hoping you ask me that." Piper replied. "I think I'd rather show you, however," with that comment lingering in the air she disappeared. She showed up again on stage in front of the microphone. "Everyone," she called out. "Sorry to interrupt the dancing and festivities. You can all return to them in a moment. I just had a few announcements I wanted to make. First I wanted to thank all of you for sharing this very unique quadruple wedding ceremony with my Mom, my sisters, and all our grooms. You honor us with your presence.
Second is to our maids and matron of honor, Sam, Grace, Rachel, and Grams. Thank you, ladies you rock. Thank you also to our guardian goddesses Hestia, Athena, and Aphrodite for helping to pull all of this together and making sure this day and night went off without a hitch. Thank you also to all of our guest performers who not only agreed to be here but to keep our collective magical secret identities secret as well."
Now before I keep my promise to return you to your previous activities, I hope you will indulge me for just a bit longer. I'd like to make a special presentation," Piper continued. "Weddings are always special occasions but this one takes the cake, if you will pardon my word play. It isn't just because there were four brides and four grooms. You are all part of a truly momentous moment in history for another reason.
This may sound sexist but I still think it is sort of true that most women dream of their wedding day all their lives. I mean I know I did. When we were little girls, however, my sisters had a slightly different view. I thought it might be kind of amusing with the help of Harry, Evander, George, and yet another special musical guest to give you a little insight into that view and a reminder that miracles do happen.
It is a little video tribute that has been prepared in Phoebe, Prue, Cole and John's honor. She raised her glass in toast. "To my sisters, I love you always and welcome to the marriage club. To my two brothers, Cole and John, again welcome to the family, and thank you for helping me keep these two out of trouble," she said motioning to Phoebe and Prue. Bless you guys and now without further ado here is the video and the incredibly talented Ms. Shania Twain.
A large screen arose from the floor of the stage behind Piper. Images of a very young Prue and Phoebe creeping down the hallway like little commandoes came on screen. They snuck into a sleeping Piper's bedroom and into her toy chest. Torrents of laughter arose from the audience as the two little deviants proceeded to draw a goatee, and mustache on groom Ken's face and then chop the long blonde hair off of Bridal Barbie. The roar grew even louder when the girls on screen took the unfortunate couple to the bathroom and tried to flush them down the toilet.
Shaina appeared beside the screen and glanced at it. She smiled broadly for a moment and said "hmmm." The scenes on the video changed from the Haliwell sister's youthful days to ones of Phoebe kicking the enemies butt, and on stage Shaina began to sing:
Life was goin' great. Love was gonna have to wait.
Was in no hurry-had no worries. Staying single was the plan.
Didn't need a steady man. I had it covered-til I discovered.
That love gets me every time. My heart changed my mind.
I gol' darn gone and done it.
The clips of a single Phoebe demon busting switched to shots of Cole and selected highlights of their romantic history together as Shaina continued to sing:
"Gone and done it. Guess I fell in love.
Must've been the way he walked, or his sweet, sweet talk.
I guess I gol darn gone and done it.
The film's spotlight then switched to Prue and John:
"I was quite content. Just a payin' my own rent.
It was my place-I needed my space
I was free to shop around.
In no rush to settle down.
I had it covered-til I discovered.
"That love get's me everytime. My heart changed my mind.
"I've gol darn gone and done it.
As she continued her vocals Shania motioned for Phoebe and Prue to join her on stage. She stopped only long enough to say "sing it with me girls." They blushed and protested a bit but then relented and started singing:
Gone and done it. Guess I fell in love.
Must've been the way he walks, or his sweet -sweet talk.
It's in the way he calls my name.
I know I'll never be the same.
Thought it had it covered.
Life was going great.
Well I gol' darn and done it.
The video ended with a shot of all four wedding couples kissing at the altar. Shania finished with one last look at the screen and a "cool!" She hugged her singing partners and wished them a happy life and then she bowed to the thunderous applause of the appreciative audience and disappeared.
Phoebe and Prue orbed back to their spots next to their husbands, Leo and Piper. She quickly dodged behind him. "Don't worry. We were going to strangle you at first when you exposed our criminal drowning of Barbie and Ken, but then we decided we'd forgive you," Prue told her middle sister. "Yeah, I loved it too," Phoebe, added. "Thanks Sis." Cole and John added their compliments as well.
"I'm glad you all liked it," Piper said with a smile. I also have another surprise to spring on you, which is not from me but from some of our extended Olympian family. Dionysus sent us a few bottles of champagne from his own private stock and Hestia packed us a midnight picnic for six. Since the party is winding down and my support staff is perfectly capable of handling things here why don't we sneak out and go enjoy some quiet family bonding time. The family in question all agreed.
