Chapter 13: Wedding

AFTER EDWARD LEFT CHARLIE SUGGESTED I HEAD up to bed. He said that Alice was right and that I would want my sleep so that I could remember tomorrow for the rest of my life, little did he know that the rest of my life meant eternity. I agreed with him gave him a hug, one of the last ones for a long time, and went up to my room. I decided to take a shower and get ready for bed though sleep would never come. When I returned from my shower I sat down with a shoe box that contained pictures from my life. I started to look through them and realized that my memories with my other friends were starting to become hazy. I decided then that if I wanted to remember my past I would have to do something. I pulled out a notebook and started to make a list of things that I would get from Renee's house when she passed on. I then started to write down all the memories I had from my childhood so that I could hold onto them until I was able to get these videos. It was while I was working on this that Alice came into my room flanked by Rosalie and Esme. Great I am in for it now. Then I noticed she didn't have her makeover kit with her. Maybe it was going to be ok.

Alice noticing my shocked and confused look smiled almost wickedly and before I knew it she was saying 'get her' to Esme and Rosalie. They each quickly grabbed an arm and Alice threw a sac over my head. Then I was being ushered down the stairs to a laughing Charlie. He must have known what was happening, curse him for not warning me.

The next thing I saw was Renee's face. We were in her hotel room. I looked around and noticed that all the girls in the wedding were there. What in the world was going on?

"Surprise!" Alice yelled. "Welcome to your bachelorette party."

"What, I thought I would get out of this. I am getting married in like twenty hours. Aren't you cutting it a little close?"

"We had to if we were going to surprise you with it. Don't worry Eddie boy is going through the same thing about now. I don't know how Jasper and Carlisle kept it from him. They didn't tell Emmett for fear of him letting it slip when he was otherwise occupied."

"Ok fine. Let's get this over with. I know you are going to try and embarrass me. Let's get it going."

"Bella, it is going to be ok. We are going to do makeovers and just have fun. Yeah there are the embarrassing gifts but you can handle that."

We decided to do the makeovers one at a time that way everybody got to help with each others. Alice pulled out her Cover Girl store and we got started. Alice gave us a theme and then we got to work. The theme was night club and everyone's make up would be done similar but with different colors to play up eye color or the clothes that they were going to put on. By the time we were done Angela had smoky eyes with a hint of purple fake lashes eyeliner soft cheeks and a Bordeaux lip color. My mom went next. She had the same smoky eyes only with green the soft cheeks and the Berry Souffle Lip color. Then we made up Esme. She had smoky eyes done in soft shades of pink it looked so cool. Then we finished her off with the Port Pout lip color. Rosalie was next and we did her in greys and reds. We chose Maximum Red lip stick for her so that she really looked the part of a temptress. Then it was Alice. We put her in browns and dark pinks. She looked awesome. We complimented her eyes with Fresh Jam lip stick.

Once everyone's makeup was done we moved on to hair. Again we started with Angela. We made her hair pin straight and then threw in a few curls randomly through her hair. We did the same with Renee but instead of curls we put crimps. Esme's hair turned out really sweet with all the big soft curls. Alice's hair was flipped out everywhere and messy looking. Rosalie had her hair in loose ringlets and I had mine in tight ringlets. It wasn't as bad as it could have been, mostly due to the fact that I wasn't the only one being put through this torture.

Once we were finished Alice looked at the time and decided that we would open presents now. I knew that if this party was anything like my last one it was going to be embarrassing gifts. Well, this party didn't let me down. My mother got me flavored body oils. Angela gave me edible intimates; I received the skimpiest little black number I have ever seen from Rose. Alice gave me scented candles and a baby blue babydoll with butterflies and sparkles on the bust of it. Esme got me a white nightgown. This one though was not like the one that Alice had gotten for me. This one was elegant. It went down almost to the ankle and had a cowl neck to it. It also had the look of a wrap around dress and had pearl beading on it. It was the most beautiful nightgown I had ever seen. I thanked everyone for their gifts and gave them all hugs.

Alice said that it was time to get changed so that we could move on to our next even for the evening. Alice handed us each a pile of clothes and told us to change. My mom went in and changed first. She came out in this coral top and a pair of yoga pants that were tie died black and white at the belt part. Esme changed next and came out in a white halter top and a white handkerchief hem shirt that went just past the knee. Angela followed her and wore a purple tube top that had sleeves that you can put on or not wear, and that was paired with a pair of low rise grey cords. Rosalie came out in a red tank that just covered her bust and then had two pieces of cloth that wrapped around her torso and a pair of black pinstripe shorts. Alice had on a black shirt that dipped down to her bellybutton and had a diamond clasp so that her boobs didn't fall out while she danced and a pair of fray cuff denim shorts on. Then it was my turn. I so did not want to wear what she gave me but I had no choice so I made the best of it. I had on a dark blue vest that came down about half way over my stomach and a pleated grey miniskirt with a black belt.

Once all of us were dressed Alice told us it was time to go. I looked at the clock and saw that it was a little after ten and knew where we were headed. Alice was going to talk all of us clubbing. When we got there we were taken to a VIP room to put our things down. We then hit the dance floor. Immediately we were hit on by guys. It was fun but annoying at the same time. I wish that Edward would show up and save me. Just then I felt two familiar arms around me, it was Edward.

"You look to enticing for your own good tonight my love."

I turned to look at him, "I could say the same about you."

We danced together and all to soon I felt Alice pulling me away saying it was time to go. My mom and Angela were almost dead on their feet and if we wanted them in anywhere near a good condition for the wedding we needed to get back to the hotel. I let her drag me away knowing that in fifteen hours Edward and I would be getting married for the second time this summer, though to everyone but the Cullen's it was the first time.

About ten the next morning we woke my mom and Angela up, so that we could head over to the Cullen's house and get ready for the wedding. We all threw on clothes and went to get in the car that was waiting for us downstairs. When we got to the Cullen's we all went to Alice's room to start primping. Once we had everyone's hair in curlers we went to check on the flowers and finishing touches for the wedding. We helped get all the flower arrangements into place. We then put the candles in place. The cake was delivered around three. The food would be delivered at about a quarter to six and the reception would start at six so that I had time to get changed along with the guys for the reception. After we got the cake set up we went and finished getting ready. Alice was in charge of makeup and Rosalie did everyone's hair. We all used the same colors as last night but toned it down a little for the ceremony.

Hair was a different matter all together. We wanted everyone to have a style that would go easily from the ceremony to the party so different styles were needed. Esme had her hair put in a French twist with flowers put in it. She looked like the picture perfect mother. My mom had her hair pulled up and then pinned into curls with a single rose in it. Alice had her hair flipped out and glitter sprayed in it so that it sparkled. She had a large rose tucked behind her ear. Rosalie had her hair twisted back and then curled and pinned into place with small flowers all over. Angela had her hair swept up and then curls cascading down with little blue flowers in the curls. My hair was brought back to the nape of my neck and tied there and then had big curls going down my back like my hair would do that all the time if you pulled it back like that. Then the pearls were set in place and the veil pinned in. I looked like a bride from the early nineteen hundreds. It was perfect. We all changed into our dresses and then we were told it was time to go down and take our places the ceremony would begin in ten minutes.

We went down and Renee and Esme gave me a quick hug before going and taking their seats for the ceremony. Angela, Alice, Rosalie and I went to the room we were told to and met up with Ben, Jasper, Emmett, and Charlie. Then we heard the music and it was time. We all took our places with Alice and Jasper in the front as the Best Man and Maid of Honor. Then it was Rosalie and Emmett the bridesmaid and the Groomsman. Then it was Angela and Ben the flower girl and the ring bearer. Then, last, were my dad and I. As Alice and Jasper started to walk I suddenly felt nervous. I didn't know why I was already married after all, so I looked at my dad to try and calm my nerves. He gave me a smile and that was all it took. I was ready.

Here comes the bride started to play and I knew this was it. We started to walk down the aisle and there in front of me stood the most amazing man in my world, my Edward for now and eternity. It seemed like it took forever for us to get to him but once I did the biggest smile spread across my face as Carlisle started the ceremony.

We each had written our own vows and when it was my turn I took a big breath and started. "I love you. Those three words hold my life in them and Edward you are my life. I will love you for eternity but Shakespeare puts it so much more eloquently than I could ever dream of putting it. I love thee, I love but thee, with a love that shall not die till the sun grows cold and the stars grow old. Edward I am yours now and for eternity. I cannot wait for eternity to start with you as my husband.

Then it was Edward's turn. He looked in my eyes and said, "A simple I love you means more than money as Frank Sinatra once said. I have to agree because to live is to love, all reason is against it. For true love cannot be found where it truly does not exist, and cannot hide where it does. Bella, you are my true love. I knew it from the moment I saw you in that biology class, and now you are my wife for now and all eternity."

Carlisle asked for the rings and the ceremony went on. At the end he said with a big smile on his face, "You may now kiss the bride."

Cheers erupted from everyone there. After we kissed I looked around and found that my mother was in tears for the first time that I can remember. My dad, being the tough guy that he pretended to be, just smiled. We were then introduced as Mr. and Mrs. Edward Cullen. Then Edward picked me up and headed down the aisle and into the house. We were followed by the rest of the wedding party so that we could get ready for the reception. The guys all went to Emmett's room and the girls back to Alice's. The guys were just taking off their Jackets rolling up their sleeves taking off the ties and getting comfortable. The girls were fixing their makeup and I was putting on a lighter dress so that I didn't get "to hot".

Once everyone was ready we went to take more pictures. These were the fun pictures where we got to do silly things. After the pictures were finished it was time to take our seats at the head table well everyone but Edward and I. We waited just out of sight for them to announce us and then we would come in all grins and giggles. We then joined our family and friends at the head table and the meal was brought out. Everyone ate and toasts were made by Alice and Jasper. Then it was time for dancing before we cut the cake. I danced with my dad for the one and only time I would get to in my life. We danced to Tough Little Boys by Gary Allan. It was a very emotional thing for me. That song just fit Charlie perfect.

I then did a Viennese Waltz with Edward to the lullaby he wrote for me. Everyone cheered for us as we finished and I felt like a princess after that dance it was so beautiful and graceful. Then we cut the cake and smeared it all over each other's faces like you are supposed to do. Then Alice let everyone know the deal with the bells on the tables. Whenever they rang it Edward and I had to kiss each other.

The rest of the night was just one big party. We were having a lot of fun dancing and talking with all of our friends. We didn't even notice how late it had gotten. People were starting to get ready to leave even though the party was going to go well into the night. Before people left Jasper asked Edward and I to dance again. Alice came and pinned my dress up for me so that we could do something a little more upbeat. That time we did a jive to Crazy Little thing called Love. We received another round of applause and then started to say goodbye to people. Renee and Charlie were among those that were getting ready to leave being as they both had early starts tomorrow. Renee had an eight o'clock flight and Charlie had a fishing trip with Billy.

After saying bye to people I noticed Jacob sitting at a table in the back ground. I ran over to him and gave him a huge hug and pulled him to the dance floor and made him dance with all of us. The night flew by and soon the only people left were of a mythical nature. Jacob noticed he was the only non-vampire and decided it was time for him to get home. I said my goodbyes and he left.

Around two in the morning the party came to an end and everyone said their goodbyes or see you later's. I knew that we would see most if not all of them again in a month or so when we all went to Volterra for Aro's Ball. Once they were all gone Edward took me in his arms and whisked me up to our room. We made love that night again "for the First time" as husband and wife. It was very sweet and then we just laid together in each other's arms before deciding to put on at least pajamas. I put on the nightgown I had gotten from Esme and he put on a pair of black silk pants that he told me he got from Carlisle. It was a perfect end to our perfect wedding. In a few days we would be leaving on our around the world in a month honeymoon ending in Volterra where we would meet up with our family.
