The stained glass in the windowpanes was colorful and bright and let in the sunlight to brighten the beautiful church. Making it look like the Valar themselves were here to witness this day-but it was nothing compared to the beauty Arwen was who stood before him. Aragorn took a shaky breath and turned to see Gandalf who was awaiting him and Arwen at the top of the stairs. Arwen turned and handed her bouquet of flowers to Maranwe and faced the front again.
The elderly wizard nodded to each of them before his voice went booming throughout the church, his long speech on the importance of love and how lucky Aragorn and Arwen were to find each other went on for many minutes. While talking Gandalf noticed the impatient faces of the couple before him, so he quickly wrapped up his speech. He then turned to Aragorn and said, "Aragorn. After long years of love, are you ready to accept and take the duties of a husband. And stay by Arwen's side. Loving her with all your heart until the end of your days?"
Aragorn squeezed Arwen's hand tightly and said, "I do."
Gandalf smiled and turned to Arwen, "And Arwen. After long years of love, are you ready to accept and take the duties of a wife. And stay by Aragorn's side. Loving him with all your heart until the end of your days?"
The elven princess looked deeply into her love's eyes, "I do."
Gandalf nodded and looked out to the audience, "On request, the King wanted to say a few words." He then stepped to the side next to Lady Galadriel. Arwen smiled shyly, she was not expecting this. Apparently nobody else was either; whispers were spread throughout the hall and wedding party. Eowyn turned to Maranwe and gave her a confused look. The half elf just shrugged in reply and turned back to Aragorn and Arwen.
Aragorn gently took his beloved's hands and placed them protectively on his chest. He drew in a deep breath before speaking, "As my gift to you, I give you the kingdom of Gondor, to sit beside me as Queen. And more importantly, I give you my heart." Arwen's eyes shone brightly as he continued, "I know that my gift to you, greatly compares in comparison for what you haven given up for me. But I will do anything in my power to make you happy. Because you have made me the happiest man, elf, hobbit or dwarf alive for giving me this." He said touching the Evenstar that hung at his throat. Arwen felt her breath hitch as shining tears appeared in the corners of her eyes. Aragorn gave her a knee weakening smile as he kept speaking, "I love you with all my heart Arwen. And nothing means more to me in the world than you." He reached his hand up to gently cup her cheek. She smiled through teary eyes and held his hand against her face, "You are my shining Evenstar, my life, my everything." He spoke. From behind Aragorn Maranwe watched as a single tear slid down her friends' cheek, "I love you Arwen."
Aragorn used his thumb to gently wipe away the lone tear. He watched Arwen regain her composure and whisper, "I love you too Aragorn."
"Dammit-" Maranwe muttered under her breath. She quickly wiped her wet eyes before anyone else saw, "I never cry." She thought. She watched Gandalf turn to her and nod.
"Bring forth the ring Maranwe." The elderly wizard spoke kindly. Maranwe stepped forward and handed the gold ring to Arwen giving her an encouraging smile. Arwen smiled in return and slowly slid the band onto Aragorn's ring finger.
Gandalf's lips curled upward and he turned to Legolas, "And you Legolas." The blonde elf gave Aragorn the beautiful mithril ring. The king pressed a kiss to the shimmering wedding band. Arwen looked down with shaky breath and a pounding heart as he slipped the ring onto her slender finger. Aragorn took a deep breath and looked up to Arwen's face. He had been waiting for this moment since the day he mistook her for Luthien in the woods. But she was even more breathtaking than Tinuviel. Her face was glowing, eyes shimmering. He just stared at her in awe. It was only her he saw, the scenery around her had vanished into nothing.
In the distance he could faintly hear Gandalf say, "And then with the power within me, I announce you as husband and wife. You may kiss your bride."
A huge smile appeared on Arwen's face as she heard the words she had been awaiting to hear for decades. She felt Aragorn wrap his arms around her waist and they slowly leaned in until they shared the most passionate kiss, and their first as husband and wife. The audience rose in a thunderous applause and cheered. Eowyn felt Faramir squeeze her hand as she turned to him and smiled. Galadriel watched as Maranwe whistled loudly as her green eyes shone with tears. Aragorn gently pulled away and brushed his wife's cheek with the back of his hand.
"Happy melda?" He asked her,
She nodded as tears streamed down her face, "I couldn't be more so." She turned as suddenly someone tapped her on the shoulder. Arwen came face to face with her lifetime friend, "Maranwe!" she spoke, "You're crying! You never cry!"
Maranwe smiled and handed her flowers, "I know. I'm just so happy for you Arwen. My emotions are a little out of control."
Arwen smiled at her until she realized her and Aragorn had to leave. She took her husbands strong arm and they shared one more quick kiss before heading down the aisle.
