I would just like to say thank you for reading and this is the last chapter. It took me 5 months to write and edit this monster. :)

The day of Logan and Kurt's wedding dawned bright and clear. It was the perfect spring day, warm and dry with no rain predicted, not that Storm would allow rain anyway. In the house, Logan was nervously pacing in the room he and his 'groomspeople' were using.
"Where the hell could he be?" he growled. "He knew it was today, hell I even told him to be here early!" Storm shrugged.
"You know Remy. He's probably off doing something stupid and he'll rush in here covered in dirt."
"Or he's bedding some... fortunate young man," Jean-Paul supplied from the corner, looking bored.
"He better not be." Logan sighed and started to run a hand through his hair, but stopped just in time. Storm had threatened to cut his fingers off if he messed up his hair again. Finally the door opened and Remy entered, looking disheveled and thoroughly pleased with himself.
"Sorry I'm late, I ran inta someone-" Logan cut him off.
"Dammit Remy, you're lucky it's almost time or I'd beat the shit out of you. It's my wedding day and you're off getting laid!"

Across the house, Scott silently entered the room Kurt and his groomspeople were using. Bobby noticed and motioned for him to fix his collar to hide a hickey. Scott nodded his thanks and walked over to where Victor and Kitty were arguing with Kurt about flowers.
"Kurt, you can't put water in them!" Kitty protested.
"But it won't be the same if they're dry!" Victor whined. Kurt looked and Scott and raised an eyebrow.
"Vhat do you zhink, Scott? Victor vants us to have vater in our flowers, but Kitty does not like zhe idea." Kurt gestured to the 5 fake flowers lying nearby. They looked like regular daisies but, in a nod to Kurt's playful nature, they had a tube attached to a bulb that could hold water. Scott considered a moment.
"Hank would kill us if someone got squirted during the ceremony. Best to leave them dry, otherwise the temptation for some people might be too great." He cast a glance at Victor and Bobby, who wore matching smirks."
"Finally!" Kitty exclaimed, "someone with some common sense speaks up." There was a knock on the door and Jean poked her head in.
"You guys ready?" Everyone nodded. "Ok, then I need Bobby, Scott and Kitty. Victor, Kurt, you two will be up soon." Kurt snapped a mock salute and Jean rolled her eyes. "Some days I wonder about you." Kurt stuck his tongue out at her as she closed the door behind her.

In the backyard chairs had been set out to form two groups, tilted inward slightly and facing the makeshift altar set up in front of the trees. Soft music began playing and the guests turned to watch the groomspeople walk down the aisle. Kitty and Colossus went first, followed by Scott and Storm, Bobby and Jean-Paul and Victor and Remy. At the altar they split and lined up on each side of it. A moment was allowed for the guests to admire the black tuxedos and dresses worn by the groomspeople, the only difference being Logan's side had red roses attached to them and Kurt's had the fake daisies. The wedding march began to play and everyone stood and turned to watch Lena walk down the aisle carrying a beautiful bouquet followed by Kurt and Logan. It had been decided that they would walk down the aisle together, so it didn't seem like one of them was the 'bride' and the other the groom. They walked arm in arm, Kurt dressed in a pure white tuxedo with a dark blue silk tie, and Logan in a dark blue tuxedo with a white silk tie. They reached the altar and stood in silence a moment, waiting for Hank to begin.
"Dearly beloved," he began, "we have gathered here today to witness the union of these two people before the eyes of God." He smiled and looked out among the crowd. "But you and I know there is nothing normal about this couple, so why would their wedding be any different?" A laugh made its way through the crowd. "But before we get down to the fun part, let us pray." Everyone bowed their heads and Hank said a brief but heartfelt prayer for Kurt and Logan's future together. When it was over he rubbed his hands together and grinned at them. "Well, let's get to it. Since you wrote your own vows, let's start with those." He gestured to Kurt, who smiled nervously and turned to Logan.
"I-" he stopped and cleared his throat. "I promise to make you colored food vhenever possible, to never zhrow you into swimming pools, to smack some sense into you vhen you need it and to get you totally hammered vhenever I can get avay vith it. I also promise to remain faithful to you, to alvays be zhere vhen you need a sympathetic ear or someone to carry you home vhen you break an ankle," Hank couldn't help but grin at this part. "To molest you at every possible opportunity and to love you for zhe rest of our days." He grinned at Logan and Logan grinned back at him. Hank gestured to Logan to say his vows and he sheepishly fished a piece of paper out of his pocket.
"Kurt, I thought a lot about what to write in my vows. Actually, I only finished them last night and that was only because Storm smacked me around till I actually picked up a pen and wrote them down. So here goes. I promise to call you Buttercup whenever it will embarrass you the most, that you will never wake up any other color, that I will cuddle you when you're hungover, that I will keep you hydrated when you're fasting and that I will make you sleep in sometimes. I also promise to love you for the rest of my life, to protect you with my life and to always come back to you." Hank smiled and nodded.
"Very nice, you two. Now for the rings. Who has them?" Kurt's tail came up with a small box in its grasp that it handed to Hank. He removed the rings and handed them to Kurt and Logan. "You know what to do." Kurt took Logan's hand and slipped the ring onto his finger.
"Vith zhis ring I zhee ved. For better or for vorse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, as long as ve both shall live." Logan took Kurt's hand and put the other ring in his finger. When he spoke, his voice had a rough tone to it.
"With this ring I thee wed. For better or worse, richer or poorer, in sickness and health, as long as we both live." Hank decided not to comment on the skipped words.
"Logan, do you take Kurt as your lawfully wedded husband?"
"I do."
"Kurt, do you take Logan as your lawfully wedded husband?"
"I do."
"Excellent. What God has joined, let no man part. By the power vested in me by the state of New York, I now pronounce you man and husband. You may kiss the groom." There were cheers and whoops from the audience as Kurt grabbed Logan by the collar and pulled him down for a rough kiss. When it evolved into a make-out session, Hank gently pried them apart and sent them down the aisle, huge grins in place as they waved to their friends and family. Once they disappeared into the house, Logan having scooped Kurt up at the threshold, the guests made their way back to their vehicles to get ready for the reception later in the day.
In the house, Logan started to carry Kurt up the stairs, but stopped at the window. He flopped down on Kurt's pillow and pulled his husband in for a lengthy kiss.
"How's it feel?" His fingers began working on Kurt's clothing. Kurt laughed and tilted his head up to give Logan access to his neck.
"It is amazing. Zhis is all I've dreamed for and more." Logan chuckled against Kurt's throat and tossed their jackets down the stairs.
"So you dreamed that our first time having sex after getting married would be in the bay window?" Kurt smacked him lightly, then moaned as Logan nipped along his collarbone.
"Not vhat I meant, but it is fitting. Zhis is vhere ve got to know each ozher, after all, as vell as vhere ve first made love." Logan nodded absently, nibbling on Kurt's earlobe and wondering if it would be appropriate to just cut their remaining clothing off. "Oh, go ahead and cut zhem off. I know you vant to." Logan grinned and made short work of their remaining clothing with his claws. He captured Kurt's lips in a soft kiss and began gently preparing him. Soon Kurt growled impatiently and positioned himself over Logan, slowly sinking down until Logan was fully inside him. It was slow and sweet, lasting for the better part of an hour. After they had reached their mutual climax, Kurt rested his sweaty head against Logan's.
"As much as I vant to just stay here like zhis, ve vill be having guests in a few hours. Hot tub?"

They emerged from their house to cheers and catcalls. Kurt looked surprised to find Victor, Scott, Remy, Kitty, Colossus, Storm and Jean setting up for the reception.
"Vhat are you all doing here? Zhe reception doesn't start for anozher two hours." Victor hopped down from the roof to answer him.
"We figured you guys would be a little, um, busy and it looks like we were right. So we came to help. Logan, since when do you bruise?" Logan flushed and tugged his t-shirt up higher.
"No idea what you're talkin about, kid. We really do appreciate the help though. What still needs done?" Ignoring Victor's eye roll, Logan walked over to help Scott and Remy finish setting up the buffet tables.
By the time the guests started arriving, everything was set up. Blue and silver streamers were in the trees, on the house, crisscrossed on tables and chairs and pretty much anywhere else Victor had been able to attach them. Small candles were in the center of each table and little gift bags were scattered everywhere. They contained a small picture of Kurt and Logan, some candies and a disposable camera so the guests could take pictures for them.
Storm had left and re-arrived with her date, a petite woman with dark hair. Kurt's circus family all arrived in one big van and Logan had a hard time not making clown jokes. Even Professor Xavier had brought a date, no one knew who she was but Kurt knew it was Mystique in disguise. She had come to the wedding as a balding middle-aged man with tiny glasses.
After everyone had gotten food and settled down in their seats, Logan stood and waited for them to stop talking.
"Well, everyone, I just wanted to say thanks for coming to the wedding and, um..." Kurt took pity on him and stood, pushing him to sit with a soft kiss.
"Ve appreciate each and every one of you who came today, whezher you came from across town or anozher country. Ve also appreciate zhe support from you all. I know it is not alvays easy to accept zhat a loved one is different, alzhough you should all be used to it by now, vhat vith the blue skin and all." Here everyone laughed and Kurt flashed them a wide grin. "Anyhow, to reiterate, zhank you all, ve love you all and zhe open bar vill last until midnight." He grinned again at the cheers and sat down to look at Logan. "See, vas zhat so hard?" Logan stuck his tongue out at him.
"You said it better than I would have." Logan stopped Kurt's reply with a quick kiss, which drew whistles from their nearby friends.
By the end of the night, Kurt and Logan had been hugged, congratulated, fed shots and had their hands shaken more times than they could count. Storm and her date had disappeared hours ago, Kitty and Colossus were snuggled up together at a table, Scott and Remy had snuck off into the forest, Lena was talking animatedly with Hank, Victor had found Pete and had him pushed up against the side of the house, and Jean was watching Bobby chase Jean-Paul around with a ball of ice. Kurt idly noted that Jean-Paul could simply fly off, but Logan pointed out that if he did that, he couldn't drag Bobby off into the woods after he had pelted him with the ice. No one noticed when they quietly took their leave.
"Kurt?"
"Hmm?" They were snuggled up under the blankets, spent and happy.
"Ready for tomorrow?" Kurt wriggled closer so he could rest his head on Logan's outstretched arm.
"Mm-hmm. Bags are packed, tickets came two days ago and Kitty has been varned about sneaking in here. Havaii is going to be fun."
"Yes it is. Love you."
"Love you too." Content, they drifted off to sleep. Their honeymoon in Hawaii lasted two weeks, and when they arrived home they were relieved to find that no one had broken in and hidden random things everywhere. So they lived happily ever after, shagging like bunnies.
The end!

So, what do you all think? I wanted to do something different, no one's really done the whole 'friends first then lovers' thing with these two. I tried to give Logan a little bit more of a sense of humor and I tried really hard to make Kurt playful but still serious about his religion. I'm contemplating a sequel. Let me know if you'd like one and again thank you so much for reading!
