The Wedding - Part 2:
Speaking Their Vows
"Ladies and Gentlemen, Friends, Family, and other Honored Guests . . . We are gathered together this fine afternoon, to witness and celebrate the marriage of Kimberly Anne Hart and Thomas Lynn Oliver. If there is anyone here, who has reason to belie that this couple should not be married, let them speak now, or forever hold their peace." There was a brief silence before the minister continued. "A wedding is a joyous occasion. One which gathers together many different faces, from many different walks of life; gathered together in the holy union of two of God's finest children. And now I ask . . .Who gives this Bride?"
"Her Mother and I do." Mr. hard said proudly. The minister smiled and nodded as Mr. Hart removed Kimberly's veil from her face, then gave her a kiss, and gently placed her hand into Tommy's, before turning to go sit with his family.
"I love you." Tommy whispered, as he gazed at his gorgeous bride.
"I love you too." Kimberly whispered back as her smile brightened.
"Kimberly and Thomas have been together for a very long time, and it is my understanding that they would like to speak their own vows. Who would like to begin?" Kimberly winked at Tommy as they looked at each other.
"I'll go . . ." Tommy offered. "Hey Trini, will you take these?" he asked, taking Kimberly's flowers away from her.
"Sure . . ." Trini said softly as she took the flowers.
"Ok . . . First things first . . . . . Kimberly turn around for a minute."
"Ok . . ." she said, turning with Tommy, to face the audience.
"I just want to show everyone how gorgeous you are! You look absolutely Amazing!" Tommy said, beaming with pride. "Doesn't she look completely GORGEOUS!?!" Kimberly blushed as Tommy showed her off. "Ok, you can face me again. I just wanted you to know how incredibly gorgeous you are!"
"Thank you Honey."
"Any time. You look beautiful! You always look beautiful! You are the most beautiful, most amazing person I have ever met. You've been a wonderful friend to me, since the day we met. And every time I look at you, I fall in love all over again. You are such an amazing woman! Always following your dreams, and encouraging me to do the same. Eight years ago, I moved to Angel Grove, knowing noone. But then I go compete at this karate match, and there you were. Standing there, at your best friend's side. Just like you've always done. Karate tournaments and stock car races bore you to death! Yet whenever one of our friends was competing in anything, there you were! You've always stood by my side, no matter what was going on, or what else you would rather have been doing. You've loved me and supported me since day one. You've stood by me even when it was really hard for you. If I were you, I would have given up on me 8 years ago. Yet here you are today. Standing with me, smiling, making me feel like I'm the only guy in the world. You are everything I have ever dreamed of, and more. You are my best friend, my rock, my strength, my hope . . . . .You are my entire world! You have been everything to me! And I am so lucky to have you in my life! I don't even want to imagine where I would be without you. You stole my heard, the second I looked at you . . . We have been through so much together . . . High school, a coma, some cuts, bruises, broken bones . . . . .We've had our ups and downs, our moments of greatness and our years of separation. Yet somehow we've always managed to come out not just on top, but together . . . I never in my wildest dreams, ever imagined myself falling in love, much less falling in love with someone like you . . . . . Kimberly, you are the absolute best thing that has ever happened to me! And I am so deeply in love with you! You are completely perfect for me; you are everything I have ever wanted out of life . . .You've helped me through school, through several injuries, you've sat with me in the hospital, and done everything in your power to help bring back my memory . . . . . . You became a parent with me when my sister moved here from Arizona . . . . . .You taught me to love, to have patience, to not be such a menace . . . . . I am everything I am, because of you! . . . Even when we were thousands of miles and continents apart, living separate lives, I knew that someday, you would come back to me . . . . . . Kimberly . . . . . You are the most special, and the most important person in my life, and I am so glad that you chose to be with me . . . Kimberly, I promise to always love and support you. To cherish you and honor you. To take care of you, and spend every day making you smile . . . You know I will always spoil you rotten, every day, for the rest of your life. Just like I always have . . . . .I am so happy when I am around you . . . Just holding you, makes my heart race with joy . . . . .You will always be my number one girl. The one person I can always count on, and can't wait to be with when we're apart . . . . . I know I'm rambling, but I want you to know just how much you mean to me. I will always stand by your side, through richer and through poorer, through sickness and through health . . . . . My life isn't worth living, without you in it . . . .We've spent most of the last eight years together, and now we're looking toward 80 more . . . Thank you for always standing by me, believing me, and being the woman I love . . .You are the most amazing woman I have ever met, and I am so happy and excited to marry you. I love you so much Kimberly! And I always will."
" . . . . . You just had to go and make me cry, didn't you?" Kimberly said smiling as she wiped away her tears. "Thanks for making me lose a bet . . ." she laughed. "Tommy . . . . . You know me better than I know myself . . . I really don't know what to say anymore . . .I had this whole speech all planned out, but now I really can't remember a single word of it . . . But I do know that you have the note I gave you with that present, and I really need to borrow it. . . . . ." Kimberly smiled as Tommy dug the note out of his pocket, and handed it to her. " . . . Ok, I feel really lame doing this, but its everything I want to say . . . . . Tommy . . . . . You are everything I have ever dreamed of . . . And more . . . . . You have looked out for me, and taken care of me, for as long as I can remember . . .You have given me the world; laying it at my feet, to do with as I please . . . . You've stood by me through everything, even when you really didn't want to and when I made it extremely difficult . . .You stood by me, even through you should have just walked away . . . . . You are more than just my best friend, but the love of my life. You are the absolute best thing that has ever happened to me, and for that, I am extremely grateful. You've always stood by me, and encouraged me to be who I am. You have been so wonderful to me, I pinch myself every morning, just to make sure this all isn't just a dream. You always love and support me through everything, no matter how hard it may be for you . . . You've put me on a plane to Florida, Paris, Milan . . . . . You've kissed me goodbye more times than you ever should have to, and for some odd reason, you're still smiling! . . . . . Every moment I've spent with you, has been a dream come true. All you have ever done is love me, and make me smile . . . And you know exactly how to make me smile! All I've ever had to do, was look at you, and my entire face lights up . . . You are everything I have ever wanted, and more! . . . . . Tommy . . . . . I am so lucky to have you in my life, and incredibly honored to be your bride . . . . . . . . Its funny . . . . . Thinking back on our life together . . . . .My brother always told me I would be the Bride of Frankenstein!" Tommy blushed as all their friends laughed.
"That was good, wasn't it?" Tommy said with a chuckle.
"Yes it was . . . . . Tommy . . . . . You have always been the only man for me . . . . .And I promise to always love, honor and cherish you everyday, for the rest of our lives . . . . I promise to be the best wife and mother I can, and to spend every day making you happy . . . I will never leave your side, and I hope that you will never leave mine either . . . . . You have my heart . . .Everything I am, is in love with you. And I am so happy to be spending the rest of my life with the man of my dreams. You will always be my knight in shining armor. I love you so much Tommy! And I know just how lucky I am, that you love me too . . ."
"Thomas . . . Do you take Kimberly to be your lawfully wedded wife?" the minister asked, after Kimberly finished.
"I do." Tommy answered confidently
"Kimberly . . . Do you take Thomas to be your lawfully wedded husband?"
"I do." agreed, smiling brightly as Tommy squeezed her hands.
"Do you have the rings?"
"Oh man! I knew I forgot something!" Tommy said panicked as he searched his pockets.
"You're serious?" Kimberly asked softly, a worried look on her face, as everyone in the church began to worry.
"No! Of course not! Jase . . ."
"Um . . . . . .Sorry . . . . ." Jason said as eh began searching his pockets. "I don't think you ever gave them to me . . . . ." Kimberly panicked some more. "Just kidding! Here you go Bro!" he said, placing the ring in Tommy's hand.
"I hate you!" Kimberly whispered as Jason began to step away.
"Cruel!" Trini said softly as she handed Kimberly her ring, then stepped away.
"Thomas, please place your ring on Kimberly's left hand, and repeat after me . . ."
"I, Thomas Lynn Oliver . . . . . Take you, Kimberly Anne Heart . . . . . To be my lawfully wedded wife . . . To have and to hold . . . To love and to cherish . . . . .Through richer or poorer . . . . .Through sickness and through health . . . And I promise . . .To cleave only unto you . . . . .. And love you unconditionally . . . . . Every day of my life . . . So long as we both shall live."
"Now Kimberly, please place your ring on Thomas' left hand, and repeat after me . . . . ."
"I, Kimberly Anne Heart . . . . . Take you, Thomas Lynn Oliver . . . . . To be my lawfully wedded husband . . . To have and to hold . . . To love and to cherish . . . . .Through richer or poorer . . . . .Through sickness and through health . . . And I promise . . .To cleave only unto you . . . . .. And love you unconditionally . . . . . Every day of my life . . . So long as we both shall live."
"And now, by the power invested in me by God, and by the state of California, I pronounce you Man and Wife . . . Thomas, you may kiss your bride!"
"FINALLY!" Tommy said excitedly as he pulled Kimberly into the most passionate of kisses.
"Oh hello!" Kimberly said softly, when Tommy finally pulled away, leaving her completely breathless. Everyone in attendance applauded as Kimberly wiped at the lipstick left on Tommy's face.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you, Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Oliver." Tommy beamed with joy as Trini handed Kimberly back her flowers, and the happy couple headed out of the church.
