"Alright, flowers to the left, chairs to the right, and the fall leaves along the aisle." Lizzie boomed into the megaphone she had been given. When she saw everyone hard at work she began to look at the options she had drawn up for arranging the chairs.
"Ms. McGuire! Don't you know its bad luck to set up for your own wedding!" Anje yelled when she saw Lizzie was still there. "You told me you were going to be here to sign for everything when it arrived then start getting ready."
"But Anje I just wanted to-" Lizzie started
"Now I must insist that you go. You should have complete confedence because you have your plans drawn out and have explained every little detail to me in length! NOW GET!" Anje said before Lizzie could talk her way into staying.
"Alright, the florist said she'd be right back with the bouquets, so you'll have to sign those and I'll be at my hair appointment.
"Thats fine, just go get beautiful so your wedding can get on the cover of Modern Bride and on our new billboard!" Anje told her.
"You mean!"
"Yes Liz, they want you." Anje smiled at the now excited Lizzie, "You'll get full credit for the project and this is just amazing for the amount of time you had to pull it off. You deserve it!" Anje finished and was suprized by a hug from Lizzie.
"Now I really have to go. I gotta look beautiful for my husband to be!" Lizzie exclaimed, "And just why did you call me McGuire when you already know that im a Gordon?"
"Because on the wedding day, rewedding or not, it's always back to the maiden name." Anje smirked.
"Don't make that mistake again. I'm always going to be a Gordon." Lizzie replied leaving.
'She sure does love that boy' Anje thought to herself.
"Miguel! Flowers to the left! You heard Lizzie"
I was searching for something I thought I would never find
Losing my mind
In and out of bad love, I thought I was born to lose
Then came you
I thought I knew what the real thing was
But nothing shakes me like your love does
I've been hypnotized
Now I realize
Gordo stared down his reflection in the hotel mirror. 'I gotta tell her. I just have to. It's for the good of the baby. If she, no, not today. This is our day. Tomorrow. I'll tell her tomorrow.'

"Gordo, It's me call back if your ready, and page me if your not." I said into his voice mail.
"Elizabeth Gordon! You know better than to call Gordo, your not supposed to speak to him before the ceremony." Mom exclaimed
"I know I'm not supposed to talk to him mother. He let his voice mail answer,"
RiNg
"and I'm not going to answer. Thats how we decided we'd let each other know the other was ready."
"You two are on the same level all the time. I wish your father and I had that. I'm so happy for you, my baby is getting married, or really your already married, but your haveing a baby. I can't believe how much you've grown up in this last year. I'm so proud of you. I need to go baby, I promised you that I wouldn't cry until it was time. Roberta and I will go take our places. It's almost time for you to walk down the aisle." Mom cried and drug Roberta out the door.
"Alright ladies you go line up. Lizzie and I will be out in a minute." Miranda ordered the bridesmaids.
"You know Randa, they are technically my maids, not yours."
"Yeah, well, I'm the matrion of honor, so I get to order them around too."
"Lizzie, I cant even begin to tell you how much you deserve this life. I can tell that you and Gordo really mean the world to each other and won't let anything between you. Just please don't leave and forget me. Never, even when he's become so famous and you guys can afford to leave our apartment. Promise that you'll always be my best." Miranda said with tears.
"Like I could live without you. You'd just follow me." I said with a smile. "Now lets go get me married."
"Lets go!" Miranda said linking our arms and walking out the door.
Every time I get lost in a temperamental mood
You still stay cool
Just when I think that this life's about to drive me insane
You take the reins
Every time I feel I'm drifting off course
You're my compass, you're my one true north
In a mixed up world
You make sense to me girl
Here I am. At the end of this aisle. Watching Kate and Ethan, some of the friends Lizzie and I made while we were here, Alex and Shane, Randa and Larry, and my parents saunter up the aisle while keeping solumn faces. Heres this day I've always dreamed of. It's absoultely stunning. Lizzie definately has her best work here.
The trees are showing the oranges, reds, greens, browns, and yellows setting off a beautiful atmosphere. The autumn leaves lining the aisle, the flowers and autumn leaves in the archway above my head, down to the autumn colors in the gowns on the brides maids and Miranda was gorgeous in her gown.
Then there was Liz, in her white gown. The veil covering her face, but it wasn't hiding that blondes beauty underneath. I could see the babys breath and orange and yellow roses in her hair. She was breathtaking, and unbelievably mine. With her parents at her sides the made their way to where I stood.
"Who gives this womans hand?" The rabbi asked
"Her mother and I do." Sam answered with a tear in his eye.
"Dearly beloved, we are-" He continued on but I was lost in the beauty I had in front of me. This girl and I have been through so much together. I was amidst reliving it, when the rabbi called my name to light the candles, and say the prayers.

"Do you Elizabeth Brooke McGuire, take David Zephyr Gordon To be your husband, for all of time?"
"I do." Liz answered with tears in her eyes.
"and do you David Zephyr Gordon, take Elizabeth Brooke McGuire to be your wife for all time?"
"I do." I answered him with all it took.
"At this time Elizabeth and David have requested to read their vows to each other." The rabbi announced to our guests.
"I Elizabeth do solumnly swear to take you David, Throughout all changes life brings, to the deepest depths of the oceans, to the highest mountains, till the end of time I give you my joys, sadness, happiness, craziness, life, and love. Today David, I give you me. No takeing it back or takeing it away. I'm yours for the rest of our lives." She finished with her voice cracking.
"I David do solumnly swear to give you Elizabeth, The rest of your days in happiness and you will know that i do love you and always will. I give you all of my devotion and and time. You will be the center of my existance. I will never, ever let you go a day without knowing tht I'm here to catch you if you should fall. Most of all, you will know that I am yours for the rest of our lives." I told her the raw truth and had a tear falling down my face as I finished.
"You may now present the rings to each other."
I sliped Lizzies diamond wedding band onto her finger. I knew that we had promised no rings, but she deserved this ring. She didn't get one at our first wedding and I wasn't going to let her go through this one without a ring.
Lizzie had also broken the promise when she slipped her grandfaters wedding band onto my finger. I knew this ring meant alot to the McGuires and I was honored to wear it.
"You may now kiss your bride young man."
As I lifted Liz's veil, I found that I did indeed cover more beauty than I could possibly imagine. my eyes met her crystal blue green ones and we locked into a kiss to end all kisses. There was no doubt now that she loves me. I knew she knew there was no doubt that I love her.
"Mosselltoff!" I announced crushing the glass.
Yeah, every road girl
Leads me to you
And baby, that's all I need to know
The reception was also beautiful, but it was no match to Liz. the tables matched the service theme and Lizzie was just beaming with joy at the compliments she was getting and people begging her to do their weddings and anneversary parties. I was so proud of her putting all of this together in this amount of time.
"Gordo, lets go, they're asking for the bride and grooms first dance." Liz called.
"Alright, anything you wish will be yours." I replied and we spent the night doing her thing.

It was time for us to leave on our honeymoon. I planned to suprise Liz, as far as she knew we were just going to the ritz and spending the night there.
"Gordo, I know you already do, but you better take good care of our little girl! Make sure the little Gordon doesn't get hurt either!"
"You know dad, I'm the one you created."
"Yeah, but shes the one carrying the one you created." Dad laughed. "I love you son. To be honest, I didn't think you two had a chance out here, but you guys suprised all of us. Congrats!"
"Liz, you have a great night. Obviously you already kow what to expect, so be careful with the grandbaby."
"Yes mother. I love you too, I'll call you. I promise." Liz smiled then hugged her mother and we got into our limo androde to the Ritz.

"Well, how does it feel to be Mrs. Gordon?" I asked while carrying her over the threshold.
"About the same. Amazing that there is someone out there who loves me more than anything else in this whole world, but this wedding was different. We had everyone thats ever loved us here. We had the growing little Gordon here." Lizzie answered with a gleam in her eyes when I set her down. "How about you go lay down, and I'll get out of this dress."
"Sounds good to me."
Lizzie came out of the bathroom looking her absoulte best. From her creamy white skin to her honey blond hair to her baby blue toe nails. Nothing was hiding from my eyes, and I enjoyed the sight.
"You know, it's not polite to stare." Lizzie announced breaking the silence that had fallen while I was admireing her beauty.
"Liz, I love you so much. I don't want to ever spend a day without you by my side. I don't want this day to end." I closed the distance between us. "Right now, all I want to do is lay with you and hold you for a while."
"That sounds nice." She replied then kissed me and crawled into bed. "Lets do that. I love you too Gordo."
Every road that I've been down in my life
Every time I feel I'm taking off
Every road that I've been down in my life
Every road girl, leads me to you
Yes it did, yes it did
Every road girl
Every road leads me to you
I stayed in bed the next morning watching her sleep. I just had to have her in my arms. I wanted to feel her warmth, her closeness, her touch. I wanted her close to me. I just liked having her close. Because I didn't know what tomorrow would bring me.
