The start of the wedding came quickly. Rory in the end decided to have both Christopher and Luke walk her down the aisle.

"You look beautiful." Jess whispered to Rory.

"You don't look bad yourself." Rory replied.

Lane was the only one of the women who managed to stop herself from crying. Even Paris shed a tear.

Ms Patty had passed round a box of Kleenex.

Emily's photograph insisted on taking as many pictures as possible on the steps of the church.

"Can I have everyone's attention?" Kirk requested. "I've always wanted to do this." He clicked his fingers and the fairy lights all came on, but since it was the middle of a summer's day, they really didn't show that much.

"Very nice Kirk." Luke patted him on the back.

…

The party got under way, Rory and Jess talked to everyone.

Sookie had made a five layer cake with two of the layers being coffee, and another chocolate and the rest vanilla.

The rest of the food turned it into more of a picnic which is just the effect Jess had been going for, although Emily didn't entirely approve she accepted it.

Lane's band played which gave Rory and Jess the type of music they liked even though Emily had wanted to hire a string quartet, which wasn't them.

"Are you happy?" Lorelai asked her.

"Yes." Rory replied.

"That's all that matters."

"Rory come with me for a minute." Jess held her hand.

"Where?" Rory asked.

"The bridge." Jess replied.

"Are you allowed to run out on your own reception?"

"We'll be back." Jess stated.

"What about Libby?"

"She seems to be fine." He nodded in the direction where Libby was playing with Lane.

"Okay."

The ducked away from the party and walked to the bridge.

"Do you want to sit down?" Jess asked.

"I'll ruin my dress."

Jess took off his jacket and placed it on the ground so Rory could sit on it.

"Thanks." She sat down dangling her legs over the side of the bridge. "So why did you want to come here?"

"Because this is where we had our first date."

"That really annoyed Dean." Rory recalled.

"That was partly the point, and I got to spend time with you."

"Now the truth comes out." Rory joked.

"This wasn't how I thought my life would turn out when Liz sent me here to live with Luke."

"Is that a bad thing?" Rory asked.

"No, I wouldn't change my life for anything."

"I wouldn't let that get around; people might think you like this town."

"It gets to you." Jess sighed. "I love you."

"I love you too."

Jess and Rory kissed, the noise from their party could be heard from the distance.

THE END

A/N: Thank you all for reading and sticking with me. The time to end it arrived, the original ending I had in mind was the proposal but my stories tend to take on a life of their own and this seems like the natural conclusion.
