"So how does it feel to know that you'll be married in two days, Forman?" Hyde asked as he, Fez, and Eric sat around drinking beers.
"I can't wait; I love her and Betsy so much. Getting married is just the icing on the cake. We're already together in every way that counts."
"Oh, cake, I love cake. You're having cake at your reception, right?" Fez checked. The other two men rolled their eyes.
"Yes, Fez, there will be cake," Eric assured his foreign friend. The foreigner smiled eagerly, he sure loved cake.
"What about you and Donna, Hyde, any plans to get married?" Eric asked his adopted brother.
"I don't know, maybe. We love each other and I think we're almost to that point. I know Donna wants to have kids someday, and I'm sure that her father would love us to be married first, you know?" The other two men nodded.
"What about you, Fez? Who's the woman in your life?" Hyde teased. Fez blushed and ducked his head.
"I don't kiss and tell," he answered.
"Come on, Fez, it's just us," Eric argued.
"No, I won't tell. You'll find out at the wedding," he answered cryptically. Eric and Hyde gave up; they knew if Fez didn't want to tell them, he wouldn't.
"Hi, is there room for one more?" a voice came from behind the small group. The three young men turned to see Red standing behind them.
"Uh, sure, hi, Red. Come join us," Eric replied nervously.
"What brings you here?" Hyde wondered.
"It's my son's bachelor party, of course I'd come. Besides, Kitty and all the other girls are drinking frou-frou drinks and talking about sex, definitely not a conversation I want to be involved in," Red explained. The others laughed and welcomed him into the group. Eric was still a little nervous about his dad being there, but he and Red had grown closer since he and Jackie had taken in Betsy.

Laughter filled the Forman living room as the girls sipped their drinks and talked about their various relationships.
"Whose has Betsy for the night?" Donna questioned.
"Brooke's parents have her, Michael's parents will have her for the wedding and such," Jackie answered.
"Red and I are still watching her while you and Eric go on your honeymoon, right?" Kitty confirmed.
"Yes, if you're sure about it," Jackie questioned.
"Of course we're sure about that, we love having her with us," Kitty said with one of her famous Kitty laughs. The rest of the evening was spent watching chick flicks and talking about the past and the future, everyone eager to see where it would lead.

"Oh, Jackie, you look beautiful," Kitty said as she dabbed at her eyes.
"Thanks, Mom, I feel like a princess," Jackie gushed as she stared at her reflection in the mirror.
"Yeah, my dumb brother made a good choice when he picked you," Laurie complimented.
"Now, Laurie, be nice to your brother," her mother scolded. Laurie just nodded, she guessed her brother wasn't so bad now that he'd grown up and was raising Betsy. Jackie smiled at the women around her. Donna was her maid of honor and Laurie was her bridesmaid. Kitty had filled in for her absentee mother, and Red was going to walk her down the aisle, something she was very grateful for.
"Auntie Jackie you look pretty," Betsy exclaimed as she turned from where Kitty was doing her hair.
"Thank you, sweetheart, are you ready to walk down the aisle and throw your rose petals?" the bride asked. Betsy nodded excitedly as she bounced up and down. "Do you remember what to do when you're done throwing the petals?" Jackie prompted.
"Yes, I go sit with Nana," Betsy replied. Nana was Kelso's mom, Mimi was Brooke's mom, and Grandma was reserved for Grandma Kitty.
"That's right, kiddo," Jackie said giving the little girl a bright smile. Just then a knock sounded at the door. Jackie drew in a breath; she knew it was Red, ready to walk her down the aisle.
"Who is it?" Donna asked.
"It's Red, are all you ladies decent?" he checked.
"Never, Red Forman," Kitty trilled. Everyone laughed and Donna opened the door to admit Red.
"You all look beautiful, Jackie, you look amazing," he said as he caught sight of his soon-to-be-daughter-in-law.
"Thanks, Red, you look rather handsome yourself," she complimented. Kitty placed a kiss on Jackie's cheek before she followed Hyde who had appeared behind Red to her seat.
"Okay, let's get lined up," Donna instructed. Laurie Donna and Betsy headed to meet up with the guys and take their places leaving Jackie and Red alone.
"This means a lot to me, you walking me down the aisle. My mother's never been around really, and you know about my dad. Thanks for letting me be part of your family, Red. It means so much to me," Jackie said desperately trying not to cry.
"You're very welcome, Jackie. You've been part of our family for a long time, but it's nice to be able to make it official. What do you say, why don't we get you married?" he suggested as he offered her his arm. Nodding, she took his arm and began the walk down the aisle to the love of her life.

A gasp escaped Eric's lips when he caught sight of Jackie. She looked like an angel, and the dress was perfect. How in the world did I ever get so lucky, he mused? God sure is smiling down on me, he thought with a smile.
"Close your mouth, Forman," Hyde whispered. Quickly Eric snapped his mouth shut and focused on his beautiful blushing bride who was walking towards him. As they reached Eric, Red took Jackie's hand and placed it in Eric's and gave them a smile before moving to take his place beside Kitty. The couple turned and smiled at each other before turning to give all their attention to the minister so the ceremony could begin.

"I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride," the minister announced. Leaning in, Eric and Jackie shared a rather intense amongst cat-calls and cheers from their family and friends.
"Remember there's a little one present," Kitty reminded them gently. Everyone laughed as the newlyweds pulled apart and began walking back up the aisle hand-in-hand grabbing Betsy along the way.

The reception was in full swing and everyone was dancing to the music. Everyone had been repriseded to realize that the woman in Fez's life was Laurie. They admitted that even though they got divorced they didn't really want to so they started to actually date and things were going great, much to Red's chagrin. Finally it was time for Jackie and Eric to leave. They thanked their guest's and as they threw rice at them, they hurried towards the lemo they'd rented and climbed inside to start their first night as a married couple, something they definitely couldn't wait to do.
