Nope still don't own lotr..
A little while later at the outdoors reception all the guests anxiously awaited the arrival of the bride and groom. Eowyn glanced over to the seat next to her where Maranwe sat, "I saw that your eyes weren't as dry as you thought they would be during the ceremony."
Maranwe looked at the White Lady of Rohan and grinned, "It was Estel's speech. He did not say it during the rehearsal; no one knew about it except Gandalf, it was so beautiful."
"It really was. I felt myself get teary. I hope when I have my wedding it is just as beautiful." Eowyn said.
Maranwe smiled and kept a mental note to speak to Faramir about him making a speech. Though they were not yet engaged, she knew that Eowyn and Faramir were sure to be wed. Suddenly Gandalf appeared at the end of the path, "Ladies and gentlemen, elves, dwarfs and hobbits of all lands. I introduce to you for the first time King Elessar and Queen Arwen Undomiel." Everyone stood and clapped as the happy couple came around the corner. Aragorn had a grin from ear to ear and Arwen's face was beaming as they went to the middle of the dance floor. A beautiful waltz began to play as Estel and his Evenstar spun around the floor.
"Do you remember that Midsummer's Eve long ago when Maranwe had to "test" your dancing skills before I danced with you?" Arwen asked quietly.
Aragorn pressed his forehead against her own, "How could I forget? For that was the night that I gave you this, " he said, glancing to the Ring of Barahir on her finger, "And it was also the same night-"
"You said those three precious words to me." Arwen finished, she felt herself becoming lost in his blue eyes, "I love you." She murmured.
"I love you too." He replied, before pressing a gentle kiss to her lips.
From the table, Maranwe was also remembering that night long ago. She smiled to herself and realized she would never stay up late with Arwen again, planning a strategy to keep her father's suspicions down. There was no more hiding how much Estel and Arwen really loved each other. They were now wed and everyone knew of their love. She stole a quick glance to Lord Elrond, a table away. He was smiling happily and he had finally realized that his only daughter would only be happy with Estel. In a small way, Maranwe was almost sad, all the times of running around and hiding and trying to keep their love a secret were over. Nevertheless, her happiness overtook everything. She knew that her, Arwen and Estel would have many more memories made throughout the rest of her life. Moreover, she would always remember her times in Imladris fondly.
The half-elf was suddenly pulled from her thoughts as she heard laughter. Looking to the dance floor she saw why. Apparently, Aragorn had caught Arwen off guard when he had dipped her for the finale of the dance. It being such a sudden act had caused Arwen to shriek and wrap her arms tightly around her husband's neck. Maranwe laughed as her friend blushed appropriately and the couple stood as once again everyone applauded. They quickly made their way to the table and took their seats between Legolas and Maranwe.
"Arwen, I have never seen you dance so gracefully." Maranwe joked. Arwen smiled as Aragorn wrapped his arms around her waist and kissed her on the cheek, saying a quick, 'I love you', "Maranwe, it is my wedding day. Not even your teasing could put me in a foul mood."
She then turned and returned the kiss to Aragorn, holding his face gently, "I love you too." Aragorn smiled and leaned in to kiss her again. They pulled back suddenly as all the guests cheered, clinking their forks against their glasses.
A table away Pippin stood, "KISS! KISS! KISS!" within a few moments every guest from Lady Galadriel to Frodo was chanting along with the small hobbit. Arwen felt herself blush shyly, suddenly realizing how many guests she had insisted to Aragorn that come. She turned to Aragorn quickly as he shrugged and said.
"You invited them all." Before pressing his lips against her own. Once again the crowd cheered and festive music broke out from the orchestra to begin a wonderful magical night.
