Chapter 25

Wedding Bells

Summary: Nick and Sara say their vows

A/N: I hope to get three chapters done between now and Thursday and possibly more. Also, Brass has double duty in the wedding party-so untraditional I know, but I don't see anything that prevents me from doing that so...on with the story.

Jim Brass took his spot beside Sara as everyone else lined up ahead of them.

Nick stood at the front of the church sipping some orange juice so he wouldn't pass out again.

Lindsey lined up beside Greg.

Catherine was with Grissom.

Warrick was with Mia and of course Sara was trying so hard not to cry as they slowly moved to proceed down the aisle.

The wedding march started and Sara walked down the aisle with Lindsey moving to lift the train of her dress up so that is wouldn't get caught on anything.

They reached the front of the church where Brass gave Sara a kiss on the cheek and shook hands with Nick. Warrick, Greg,Brass and Grissom took their spots beside Nick whereas, Catherine, Mia and Lindsey took their spots beside Sara.

The minister said a few words and proceeded with the ceremony.

"I Nicolas take you Sara to be my wife, to have and to hold, in sickness and in health in good times and in bad from this day forward all the days of my life".

"I Sara take you Nicolas to be my husband, to have and to hold, in sickness and in health in good times and in bad from this day forward all th days of my life".

Grissom handed the ring to Nick as did Catherine with Sara's.

"With this ring I wed thee". Nick said placing the ring on Sara's finger.

"With this ring I wed thee". Sara replied placing the ring on Nick's finger.

Catherine and Mia had started crying and Sara and Lindsey started laughing.

"By the power invested in me by the state of Nevada I now pronounce for the first time as husband and wife Nicolas and Sara Stokes". The minister said as he led the wedding party back down the aisle again.

A greeting line had formed and Nick and Sara greeted everyone. Lindsey and Greg were playing Madden Football in the backroom of the church.

Lindsey looked at Greg.

"Why are we back here playing Madden Football when we should be getting ready for pictures"?

"I suppose you're right, I better go put Nick's PS2 back in his truck". Greg said laughing.

Lindsey just laughed.

"I'll see you up front for pictures Uncle Greg".

"Later bug".

Everyone gathered for pictures a short time later and when they were finally done they could head off to the reception.
