A/N: So here is the third chapter. I hope you guys enjoy it!

"Luna, this dress is absolutely dreadful!"

Hermione stood in a dark blue sequined dress. It was floor length and the straps were composed of bright sunflowers. Not only that, but a huge sunflower was sewn at the bellybutton area.

"It is rather odd isn't it? I guess that I was focusing more on how well the blue and the yellow complement each other."

"Hey Luna, how about this one?"

Luna turned towards Ginny, who was holding up a short, dark blue, off the shoulder dress. It had a small sunflower sewn onto the shoulder strap and a yellow ribbon across the middle of the dress.

"It's wonderful! Hurry and try it on. What do you think Hermione?" Luna turned towards Hermione as she held up the dress in Hermione's size.

"It's really cute. I wouldn't mind wearing it."

"Here, you try it on too."

As Luna waited for the girls to try on the dresses she sat down on one of the many chairs in the dressing area. She rummaged through her bag and pulled out the latest edition of the Quibbler. After a few minutes Luna heard someone clear their throat and she looked up from the upside down magazine.

"Oh Ginny, it looks great on you."

Ginny stood in front Luna, strutting on the small runway in the boutique.

"I do look great don't I? I bet that Neville is going to turn completely red when he sees me in it."

They both laughed, thinking of the reaction of Ginny's boyfriend of three years. At that moment Hermione stepped out of the dressing room. She looked a little awkward, nervously pulling at the ends of her dress. It was a little short for her comfort.

"Stand up straight and stop trying to make the dress longer. You look fantastic. Just because you are married to my idiot brother doesn't mean that you should stop looking sexy." Ginny said as she tried to twirl Hermione.

"I agree. I know that Ron would agree as well once he has seen you in that dress. You have my permission to leave the reception early if you'd like."

Hermione turned bright red, "Luna! Well, I...uh."

Ginny looked both disgusted and amused. It was always entertaining to see the ever so opinionated Hermione at a loss for words. However, she did not want to think about the reason why Ron and Hermione would want to leave early from the reception.

A few hours later the girls headed for the ice cream parlor. They carried bags of shoes, jewelry, make-up, and their dresses. Well, the bridesmaid dresses anyway. Luna had attended her final fitting and would be picking up her wedding dress in two weeks. A tiny bell rang as they entered the shop. To the right sat the three men whom they were meeting up with.

They all stood up at once and went to help their respective women with the bags. Harry gave Luna a big smile and a kiss as he took the bags from her. She couldn't hold back the goofy grin that came to her face at Harry's sweet gesture. It always surprised her when she has this type of reaction to him. It's not like its anything new. He was always doing sweet things for her. Whether it's holding a door open for her or insisting on carrying anything that she has in her arms when he sees her.

They all sat down and ordered their favorite flavors. Each of them ordered a single scoop while Ron ordered a triple scoop. Hermione looked at him with a look of irritation.

"Ronald, do you really need a triple scoop? We have apple pie waiting at home."

"I know that. This is just a small snack." He then looked up at his wife, "What?"

Hermione gave him a stern look at that moment.

"A small snack? I swear it's like your stomach is a bottomless hole."

Everyone laughed and Ron crossed his arms across his chest, mumbling something to himself.

"So how did it go shopping for dresses?" Neville asked the women.

"It was alright. After a few disastrous tries we finally found the perfect dress." Ginny replied.

"The dress really is wonderful Harry. I almost bought one for myself, but for a different reason." Luna said, looking knowingly at Hermione and Ginny. They all giggled at this, while the men looked at them looking extremely confused.

"You'll figure it out on the day of the wedding," Hermione said.

"Okay...well we were able to find some great tuxes. I look pretty snazzy if I do say so myself," Harry said, winking at Luna.

Luna giggled, "I can't wait to see you in it."

"And I can't wait to see you in your dress. I know that you are going to look absolutely gorgeous."

Luna blushed. Harry chuckled and gave her a kiss. He always thought that she looked cute when she blushed. Luna wasn't usually fazed by things that would cause most people to blush. So when she did Harry took it as a great accomplishment.

Soon their orders came and the group of friends talked about the day they had. Hermione explained how the make-up sales woman made her look like a clown. Ginny shared the story of how she was accidently sprayed in the eyes by a perfume sales man. At this Neville quickly started examining her eyes and asking if she was alright. Ginny gave him a warm smile and assured him that she was alright. She explained how Hermione had used a soothing charm on her.

"Well, things didn't go quite as smoothly with us either. Neville had a little incident in the tux shop." Harry said.

"Little incident? It was rather huge if you ask me," Ron chuckled.

"It wasn't that bad," Neville said in a small voice.

"What happened?" Ginny asked.

"Well," started Harry. "He was showing us how the tux fit on him when the sales woman came up to him, tells him that he looks very handsome, and winks at him. Neville turned bright red, practically yelled out that he had a girlfriend, and tripped over the leg of one of the mannequins. This then caused a domino effect, knocking down every mannequin in the shop."

Everyone roared with laughter, while Neville sat there looking extremely embarrassed. Ginny rubbed his back and said, "It's okay babe. Thank you for letting that woman know you are taken. Otherwise I would have had to go over there and hex her into tomorrow."

Neville gave her a small smile and kissed her.

"That reminds me. Luna, don't you have something to tell Harry?" Hermione asked with a smile.

"Oh yeah! Luna, why don't you tell Harry what happened as we were stepping out of the lingerie shop?" Ginny said, laughing as she saw Harry get red in the face.

Luna looked unperturbed as she continued to eat her mint chocolate chip ice cream. "Oh yes, that was weird even for me."

She turned towards Harry and continued, "We were walking out of the shop and we surprisingly ran into Draco Malfoy and his group of friends. You would think that he would just walk straight past us without a word of acknowledgement, but he looks at the shop we stepped out of and smiles. He then smirks at me and says, "I wouldn't mind seeing you in something from that shop Lovegood." After that he just continues on his way. Isn't that weird Harry?"

Harry stared down at the table, his fists clenched.

"Harry? Are you alright?" Luna asked as she put a hand on his shoulder.

"I'll beat his ass. I'll beat that ferret's ass."

"Harry, I'm sure that he was just joking. I mean, he was talking about me. Loony Luna Lovegood. Do you really think that someone like Draco would mean it when he says that I'm attractive?"

"Don't call yourself that. You're not loony and you are very attractive. Don't ever think otherwise."

Everyone agreed in unison.

Luna gave them all a small smile and laid her head on Harry's shoulder.

"There is no need to beat anyone's ass Harry. I'm yours and only yours."

"I still wouldn't mind helping you kick his ass Harry. He was a git in school and he always will be a git in my book," Ron said.

"Nah, I'm alright now. However, if he ever does that again when I'm around he'll wish that he was a ferret," Harry said.

After an hour of talking they all gathered their belongings and headed out of the shop. Luna saw that Harry was struggling with their bags and offered to help. Harry, however, smacked her hand away when she tried to grab a bag from him. She sighed, but didn't try it again. He would never give in. When they reached the end of Hogsmeade they said their goodbyes. Harry finally agreed to let Luna have the smallest bag in order to free one of his hands so that they could apparate to her flat. Once there, Harry grabbed the bag from her and placed them all on the dining room table.

"Thank you for helping me with the bags even though I could have helped you with them."

"No problem love," Harry said as he reached for the black and white lingerie bag.

Luna quickly crossed the room, taking the bag before Harry could reach it.

"Oh no you don't. You are not going to see what is in this bag until our wedding night."

"Aww man. Please love? I just want a little sneak peak," he said as he grabbed Luna's waist while trying to grab the bag from her.

Luna giggled, "No! I'm going to go hide this. You stay here."

She squirmed out of his arms and ran to her room. Quickly, she shut her door leaving Harry looking disappointed but happy at the same time. He still couldn't believe that he will be marrying Luna in two weeks. The weeks after the proposal had been difficult. He wasn't that big on details and unfortunately for him, a wedding is all about the small details. He struggled through the meetings having to do with table arrangements, favors, invitations, and everything else that encompasses a wedding. Luna, however, loved the small details. She would excitingly discuss her ideas and thoughts with Harry. She would also get quite angry with him when he didn't share her eagerness in the planning. He understood her reactions, but he would also need to explain to her that he didn't really care about all of the small details. All he cared about was marrying her. That was, in essence, the whole point of a wedding. After a few of these arguments Luna gave him an understanding smile and would only sparingly ask for his thoughts on the details. Harry was soon taken out of his thoughts when Luna reemerged from her room with a clipboard.

"Okay, so I can check off buying the bridesmaids dresses, lingerie, and jewelry from the list. We are almost done with everything!" she said as she flipped through the pages.

Harry walked up to her, took the clipboard and placed it on the kitchen counter. "That's great. How about we take a little break hmm?"

As he said this he led her over to the couch.

"Harry dear! I'm so glad that you are here! Could you help Ronald with the yard? He's taking his sweet time out there. Oh, and could you give this bag to Luna and the others on your way out? They are working on the centerpieces." Mrs. Weasley was being as controlling as she was for Bill and Fleur's wedding. For the past week everyone was put to work at the Weasley home. Whether it was laundry or decorating everyone had a job to do. Anyone caught sitting around was subject to a scolding from Mrs. Weasley. Harry didn't really mind though. Despite her bossiness she was a great help. She did after all agree to have the wedding in her yard. Luna and Harry had originally thought of having the wedding by the black lake at Hogwarts but decided against it. The memories of the war there still seemed too vivid in Harry's mind whenever he visited his old school.

He entered the yard and saw the girls working on centerpieces at a large table. They turned out rather nice. Each one consisted of a long, clear vase containing light colored rocks with water. Coming out of the top of the vase were large grass blades, wheat stalks, and a large sunflower that was charmed to sway back and forth. Harry walked up to Luna, handing her the bag.

"Thank you Harry. Are you going to help Ron? It seems that nargles are causing him to lose focus on his job."

Hermione, who grew accustomed to Luna's talk of nargles and other strange creatures, calmly replied, "I don't think it's the nargles that are keeping him from doing his job Luna. He just doesn't like doing work in general."

"Yeah, there is that fact too." Luna stated as she started working on another centerpiece.

Harry kissed her on the cheek and said, "Well, I'll go help him out."

He walked up to Ron, who was merely walking about the yard and moving his wand around lazily. He must have heard Harry walking towards him because he said with a tone of irritation, "I'm doing my job. No need to check up on me!"

"I can see that," Harry replied sarcastically.

Ron quickly turned around, a look of relief on his face.

"I thought that you were mum. I swear, it's like Bill and Fleur's wedding all over again."

"Yeah, but she really does mean well. How many gnomes are left?"

Ron's face suddenly contorted into one of disgust, "Those little bastards. There is about ten left. One of them nearly bit my finger clear off!" As he said this he held up his left hand with a bloody bandage on the index finger.

Harry tried not to laugh, "Well, let's get to work then. The sooner we finish this, the sooner we can relax with a glass of fire whiskey."

They went to work, leaping after gnomes and avoiding their sharp teeth. After about an hour of this they were down to one gnome. This one seemed to be the smartest of them all, the team leader. He avoided their spells and their grasps every single time they went after him. However, Harry and Ron soon managed to corner him at a wall of large stones. They slowly crept up to him, wands at the ready. Harry felt a great sense of relief. They finally had him and he wasn't even putting up a fight! He merely stood there, looking at them with blank eyes. Harry raised his wand, preparing to use the confundus charm. That's when it all went wrong.

As soon as Harry started to say the charm the gnome leapt at him. Harry dodged it, however his charm missed and hit Ron instead. Ron staggered a bit as the charm hit him, his eyes suddenly looking cloudy. Confused from the charm he shouted, "Engorgio!" at the gnome, causing it to grow about ten feet tall. Harry was unable to move out of pure shock. The gnome towered over him. It then took this opportunity to wreak havoc on the family that had gotten rid of his gnome friends. It raced towards the Burrow and soon shrieks and yells could be heard.

Harry raced towards the Burrow, leaving a confused Ron behind. The gnome was currently knocking over the large table that had held the centerpieces. Luna, Hermione, and Ginny dodged the huge legs of the gnome while casting spells at it. Unfortunately, it didn't seem like any of their spells had an effect on the gigantic gnome. Soon Mrs. Weasley rushed out of her house to see what the commotion was about. She stared up at the gnome in shock for a few seconds but quickly shook it off. With a determined look on her face she rushed to assist the girls.

"You are not going to ruin this wedding!" she yelled.

Harry caught up to them just as the gnome was heading towards the midnight blue tent that was set up for the reception. They all fired spells at the gnome's back, including Mr. Weasley and the other Weasley men that were setting up the reception area. However, they merely caused it to swing an arm back at them in irritation. Luna turned towards Harry and yelled, "We are not going to accomplish anything if we keep doing this. We need to all fire a stunning spell at it at once!" Harry nodded and passed on the message to everyone. They all nodded their heads in agreement.

"At the count of three! ONE! TWO! THREE!" Harry yelled.

At that moment they all cast stunning spells at the gnome. The spells came together in one large beam of red light and hit the gnome square in the chest. It flew back a few feet, landing unconscious on the right half of the tent. Everyone stood in silence, until a red-faced Hermione turned towards Harry.

"What the hell happened? You and Ron simply had the task of degnoming the garden and this happens!" she yelled. Then she looked around and noticed that Ron was nowhere to be found.

"Where is Ron anyway?"

"Well...," Harry started. "We had the gnome cornered and I casted a confundus charm right as it launched itself at me. I jumped out of the way; the spell missed it and hit Ron, who in his confusion casted an engorgio charm on the gnome..."

"WHAT?" Hermione shrieked as she looked towards the area where Harry and Ron had been working. She then gasped and covered her mouth with her hand, her eyes becoming rather large with surprise. Everyone followed her line of vision and soon everyone was either gasping or breaking out in laughter.

Ron was standing on top of the largest stone, wearing nothing but his shirt as a loincloth. He had somehow managed to get his hair to stand up on all sides of his head, which made him seem even more insane than he already looked. To make matters worse, or even more hilarious depending on how you look at it, he started doing elaborate dance moves.

"Ronald! Get down from there this instant!" Mrs. Weasley said as she made her way towards him. Hermione followed her, with an amused yet scared look on her face. They reached Ron and tried to get him to get down from the stone, but he ignored them and continued to dance. Luna, Harry, and Ginny made their way over as well and the others decided to take care of the gnome. It seems that the situation had prevented anyone from remembering the counter charm. Luna calmly walked up to Ron and cast the counter spell. Ron slowly stopped dancing and looked down at them all. He looked extremely confused. A cold breeze blew, causing Ron to shiver and look down at himself, wondering why he was so cold. His face turned a very bright shade of red as he realized what he was wearing. He looked down at Harry.

"What the bloody hell happened?"

Harry nervously scratched the back of his head, "Well, I accidently hit you with a confundus charm and you used an engorgio spell on the gnome. Don't worry though. We took care of the gnome."

"Ron," Hermione said gently. "Why don't you get down from there? That way you can go inside and change into something more appropriate."

Ron nodded sheepishly and slowly climbed down from the stone.

"While you're at it, fix your hair as well. You look like a porcupine," Ginny said while trying not to laugh.

Ron reached up to touch his hair and turned an even more red, if that was even possible.

Hermione put an arm around his waist and gently led him to the house while trying to hide the amused look on her face.

"Well," Luna said. "That was rather eventful and it looks like it caused us to have some extra work."

Harry looked at the mess that he had caused. The centerpieces were all broken and scattered throughout the yard, the floating lanterns now lying lifeless on the floor, and half of the reception area was ruined.

"I'm so sorry Luna. I didn't mean for this to happen."

"Of course you didn't mean for this to happen. If you did I would be second guessing whether or not you want to marry me. It was probably those darn wrackspurts. They do like to float around your head Harry."

Harry gave her a small smile and let out a sight of frustration. Ginny picked up a sunflower that was laying by her feet and looked up at Harry.

"We better get started on fixing everything. Luna and I will start fixing the centerpieces. You should go check on Ron and start helping the others with the reception area."

Harry nodded and headed towards the house. He opened the door just as Hermione was coming down the stairs.

"Ron is almost ready. I managed to get his hair back to normal," Hermione said as she smiled at Harry.

Harry smiled back, "Luna and Ginny are already working on fixing the centerpieces."

"Oh! Alright, I'll go help with the lanterns then," she said as she rushed past Harry and out the door.

A few hours later everything was ready for the wedding that would take place the next day. Everyone was exhausted from the day's events. Mrs. Weasley and the girls made dinner for everyone. It was nothing special. It was just a simple beef stew. Soon everyone was saying their goodbyes, wanting to get as much rest as possible for tomorrow. Harry and Luna were the last to leave. They both gave Mr. and Mrs. Weasley a hug and thanked them again for letting them have the wedding at the Burrow.

"Don't even mention it dears. It is the least we could do. Now off to bed. You have a big day ahead of you tomorrow."

Harry and Luna apparated outside Luna's flat. Luna turned towards Harry and gave him a serene smile. Harry smiled back.

"So, we get married tomorrow," Harry said.

"Yes we do. Are you nervous?"

Harry chuckled, "Yeah, just a bit. But it's something that I have been looking forward to for a long time now. I can't wait to call you my wife."

Luna smiled lovingly at him. "I know what you mean. It's a nervous excitement. Just think, tomorrow I will officially be Mrs. Luna Potter."

"It has a nice ring to it, don't you think?"

Luna giggled, "Oh yes. It's like I was meant to marry you."

"Without a doubt. We're both smart, incredibly sexy, and we both have a way of attracting attention wherever we go. I'd say we were indeed made for each other."

They both laughed.

"Do you think that little Fred will be able to make it all the way down the aisle?" Luna asked.

Harry was caught off guard by the random question, but he quickly recovered.

"Don't worry about that. Whatever happens tomorrow happens. The only thing that matters is that we get married. Right?"

"Yeah, you're right."

"Besides, even if he doesn't, Ron and Ginny will have our wedding rings with them."

"True. I don't know why I'm worrying about it."

"It's because you are weird," Harry teased.

"I know, but it's one of the many reasons why you love me."

Luna looked up at him and gave him a sweet kiss.

Harry smiled pulled her into a hug. He pulled away and looked at the woman who he will soon call his wife.

"You should go to bed. Mrs. Weasley is right; we do have a big day tomorrow."

"Indeed. Well, goodnight Harry. I love you."

"I love you too Luna. See you tomorrow. I'll be the one standing at the altar."

Luna let out a small laugh, "See you tomorrow. I'll be the one in the white dress."
