A/N: Finally, the wedding has arrived! Thanks for being so patient with me. Enjoy!
Mrs. Weasley was cleaning the kitchen up from supper when she peered out of the window to see four people walking up the road to the Burrow. It didn't take her long to realize who they were. "Arthur!" she cried as she raced for the door. The kids are back!" Mrs. Weasley ran out and down the road to meet the weary group. Mr. Weasley and the rest of the family quickly followed.
"Oh, you're back, you're back!" Mrs. Weasley sobbed as she gathered them all in a hug. "I've been so worried about you, who knows what you could have gotten yourself into!" Mrs. Weasely kept fussing over them until Mr. Weasley had to step in.
"Now, Molly, don't suffocate them." he scolded gently. "Let's bring them in and feed them, I'm sure they are very hungry, okay?"
"Actually, your cooking would be great right now, Mrs. Weasley." Harry admitted.
The whole group returned to the house and Mrs. Weasley ended up fixing supper again for the whole family. "Well, we're hungry again, mum!" George had said with a grin.
"So, son, did you all finish what you had to do, or are you just here for the wedding?" Mr. Weasley asked Harry as they were eating.
"Well, we've done what we can for now." Harry said truthfully. "It won't be finished until Voldemort is defeated."
Mrs. Weasley blanched at the mention of the name and busied herself with dishing up dessert for everyone.
"Speaking of the wedding, where are Bill and Phlegm- I mean, Flour?" Ginny asked with a smirk.
"They are in the city, dear, getting some last minute things for the wedding. Mrs. Weasley answered with a reprimanding look at Ginny. "They should be back any time now. I know they'll be thrilled to see that you're back." she added.
"If you don't mind, Mrs. Weasley, we'll say hello to them in the morning." Harry said with a yawn. "I think the four of us are ready for a good night's sleep."
"Oh, of course, dear! You'll find your things in your rooms. Go on up and we'll see you in the morning." Mrs. Weasley instructed.
The foursome said goodnight to Mr. And Mrs. Weasley and the twins. They trudged up the stairs to their rooms.
"Harry, I'll see you in the morning." Ginny said goodnight with a kiss. "I love you."
"I love you too, honey. Goodnight."
They turned to go to their separate rooms and saw that Ron and Hermione still hadn't stopped kissing since they had went upstairs.
Hermione finally pulled away and she and Ron said their goodnights and turned to their rooms as well.
Harry felt like he had just laid his head on the pillow when Mrs. Weasley was waking them up the next morning. "Up, up, up!" she screeched at the occupants of both rooms. "We've got loads to do before the wedding tomorrow!"
Harry sat up and ran his hand through his hair and was rubbing the sleep out of his eyes when Ginny walked in. "Aw, you're so cute when you're sleepy!" she said playfully. She came in and sat down on his lap for a hug. "Come on, wake up. Mom's made to do lists out for everybody" she added. Ginny walked back into her room and Harry quickly dressed and went downstairs.
"I'm glad you're all up." Mrs. Weasley said. "The four of you are to clean the house from top to bottom today."
Ron groaned and opened his mouth to complain but thought better of it by the look on his mum's face.
"Sure, Mrs. Weasley, we'd love to!" Hermione said with a smile, poking Ron in the ribs with her elbow.
About that time, Fleur Delacour walked down the stairs into the kitchen. 'Arry! Ron! 'Ermione! Ginny! You are back!" she said excitedly. "Eet eez so good to zee you!" Fleur enthused.
Before long, the whole house was a busy hive of activity. Harry and Ginny cleaned the second floor and Ron and Hermione cleaned the downstairs. Fred and George were cleaning up the yard while Charlie pulled gnomes out of the garden. Fleur directed Bill and Mr. Weasley as to where she wanted everything arranged outside and Mrs. Weasley was cooking up a storm in the kitchen.
The frenzied pace of activity continued until everyone was about ready to drop. Finally it seemed that everything had been done for the next days ceremony and everyone collapsed into bed, to tired to do anything else.
The wedding day came and soon it was time for the wedding. The guests were arriving and everyone was getting ready. Harry was in the room he was sharing with Ron, adjusting his dress robes, when Ginny walked in looking beautiful in her bridal party gown. The pale lavender gown fell slightly off her shoulders and her hair was styled in soft curls that fell to her back. "You're beautiful, Gin." Harry said quietly, thinking of just how lucky he was.
"Thanks, Harry." Ginny replied sweetly. "Come on, we've got to go outside now." she added, slipping her arm through Harry's. They stepped outside, joining up with Ron and Hermione. Ron looked as if he was as awestruck with Hermione as he was with Ginny. Harry thought he noticed a bit of smugness in Hermione's face that he was looking at her like that and not Fleur or her relatives.
The Weasley's backyard had been transformed. There were flowers everywhere. Orchids, lilies, lilac, and flowers that Harry didn't recognize were arranged in breathtaking beauty, forming an archway. There were fountains shooting jets of water in lovely patterns and dozens of butterflies flitting around. A white satin runner made its way to from backdoor of the house to the archway. Harry and Hermione found seats while Ron and Ginny went to stand at the front with the rest of the Weasley and Delacour immediate family. Harry supposed that this was one of the differences between a muggle and a wizarding wedding. As soon as Harry sat, he found that the chairs had obviously been charmed to make him feel as if he was sitting on a cloud. He could tell that Hermione was experiencing the same thing as he saw her pat the chair next to her curiously.
Harry looked around at the other guests as they were seated. He wasn't surprised to see most people from the Order as well as Professors Sprout and Flitwick. He caught Hagrid's eye as he was being seated and Hagrid gave a big enthusiastic wave to him and Hermione. Hermione cringed as she saw that Hagrid was wearing that horrid brown hairy suit he owned but gave a small wave back as did Harry. He realized that the all the people on the other side of the aisle were Fleur's family. He figured the few remaining people were probably from Gringott's as both Bill and Fleur worked there.
Harry turned back around as the musicians began playing the harps, signaling the start of the wedding. He followed the lead of the crowd and stood up and looked back toward the house. He was amazed to see flower petals flowing to the ground ahead of the bride and groom. Bill wore dress robes, but Fleur's dress was something rather out of a fairy tale, he thought.
The dress was ivory in color. She wore no veil as in some muggle weddings, but the dress was similar in design. The dress was beautiful with yards of satin and lace dripping from it, but what truly made it stand out were the real fairies holding up the train of the dress. He heard the crowd gasp in awe over it and knew he had as well.
The bride and groom finally arrived to the archway. The wedding official, an aged wizard, began the wedding service speaking about everlasting love. The couple said their vows and exchanged rings.
As Harry watched, he envisioned him and Ginny under the archway, saying their vows and pledging their love to one another. And he realized how very much he wanted to do that. Harry glanced at Hermione and saw a rather tearful expression on her face. "Women." Harry thought to himself as he brought his attention back to the wedding. The official placed both of their hands in his and spoke again, this time talking about the binds of commitment and the cords of love. Finally, he pronounced them husband and wife.
Harry met Ginny coming up the aisle and grabbed her hand. "I can't wait till it's us, Gin." he said seriously.
Tears gathered in Ginny's eyes. "It will be, Harry. Not even Voldemort can get in the way of that."
"Come on, today's a happy day. Let's forget about real life for a moment and go congratulate your brother and your new sister." Harry said lightly with a teasing look to Ginny on those last few words.
She punched him in the arm as they took their place in line. Ron and Hermione met up with them in line.
"About bloody time." Ron complained. "Thought we were going to be standing up there forever."
"Ronald Weasley, what's wrong with you?" Hermione asked with exasperation.
"It wasn't me and you up there, that's what's wrong with me!" Ron blurted out immediately turning red. "I mean…I just thought…I didn't" Ron stammered, obviously not intending to have said that aloud.
Hermione softened and kissed him in line in front of everybody. Ron blushed even more, but wrapped his arm around Hermione's waist.
Harry quickly changed the subject to avoid his friend further embarrassment, although he couldn't say he wasn't enjoying it. "What do you think about that?" he asked, pointing to the wedding cake topper. It was a miniature version of Bill and Fleur dancing. And the group started discussing what they thought about the wedding decorations and ceremony.
The wedding reception ended all too soon. They had enjoyed talking to everyone from the Order as well as the professors from school, but as the sky darkened, the only people left were Lupin, Moody, McGonagall, and the Weasley's.
The harpist was starting to pack up when Harry stopped her. "Could you just play a few minutes more?" he asked. "Please?" The harpist agreed and Harry pulled Ginny outside. "May I have this dance?" he asked softly.
"Harry!" Ginny exclaimed in surprise. "This is so romantic, of course I'll dance with you!" Ginny laid her head on his shoulder as they danced in the moonlight. Neither of them said a word but both somehow knew that the music was saying all that needed to be said. Wrapped up in the moment, neither noticed that Ron and Hermione had joined them outside and were also dancing.
"I love dancing with you, Hermione. Well, actually, I just love being anywhere with you." Ron admitted as they danced.
Hermione smiled and wrapped her arms around his neck. "Shut up, Ronald, and kiss me already."
Ron complied without an argument.
The two couples danced, each in their own little world, their cares nowhere to be found. It was magical, it was love.
