The Wedding of the Decade… or Century

Chapter 2

The Ceremony and Surprises

"Ginny are you ready," asked Hermione.

"Yes I'm ready," said Ginny as she picked up her bouquet.

"Oh my baby's getting married," cried Molly as she pulled her daughter into a hug.

"Mum … I … can't … breathe," said Ginny gasping for breath.

"Mrs. Weasley it's alright but if you don't let her go we'll have to turn this into a funeral," said Hermione.

"I'm sorry dear I'm just so happy for you," said Molly as she let her daughter go.

"It's alright mum," said Ginny.

"Ginny is anything wrong dear," asked Molly.

"I can't believe it," said Ginny as she sat down on a chair in her dressing room.

"You can't believe what," asked Hermione sitting down next to her.

"I can't believe I'm getting married to Harry Potter," said Ginny," Hermione I've wanted this for I don't know how long and now I just can't believe my wish came true."

"Oh Ginny you should be happy not sad," said Hermione.

"Hermione I am happy I just… I don't know I can't explain it," said Ginny.

"Ginny the ceremony is about to start we should get down there," said Molly.

"Alright mum we'll be there in a moment," said Ginny getting up. They walked out of the dressing room.

The garden was decorated with red roses and white lilies. Bill and Fleur's daughter Evelyn was the flower girl, Hermione was the maid of honor, and Ron was the best man. The music started and Evelyn walked out onto the isle when she reached halfway Hermione followed. When Hermione reached halfway Ginny and her father began walking down the isle. When Harry saw her he let out a small gasp.

She looked perfect. In his eyes she was the image of an angel.

When Ginny and her father reached the alter Harry didn't even notice anyone saying anything he was completely focused on how beautiful Ginny looked. He snapped out of his trance and the ceremony began.

A while later the minister said," You may kiss the bride!" and Harry did so with pleasure. They broke apart grinning like mad.

At the reception Harry and Ginny were dancing with each other a lot. They really only stopped for the father daughter dance, to take a few breaks, and eat. Ron made the first toast of the night.

"Harry I think you and Ginny are perfect for each other! I thought that even when you were dating in our sixth year, I might not've been happy about it but you were! And first I'd like to say I'm sorry for being so hard on you. Well with that out of the way I'd also like to say that I've never seen Ginny happier than when she's with you," said Ron," I'm proud to call you my brother! To Harry and Ginny!"

"To Harry and Ginny!" cried everyone raising their glasses.

"Well I've seen Ginny when she was happy, sad, angry, and everything in between," said Hermione," and I've never seen her happier than when you proposed to her except now! I hope you two have a wonderful marriage! To Harry and Ginny!" said Hermione raising her glass.

"To Harry and Ginny," chorused everyone smiling.

"We have one more announcement to make," said Ron.

"You do," asked Harry confused.

"Yes," said Ron. He walked up to Hermione got down on one knee and asked," Hermione, will you marry me?"

Hermione's eyes were quickly filled with tears;" YES!" she cried throwing herself onto him.

Harry grinned at them and said," I'm happy for you two."
