Chapter 49: WEDDING DAY!
Bella's P.O.V
Well today's the big day; I am going to be marring Edward and I so can't wait. I just woke up from not sleeping to well last night because Edward was not next to me and well I am kinda nervous. It is 6am and I have a feeling that Alice is fixing to come in to wake me up. The wedding is at 2pm and its going to take forever to get there. I just can't wait to see my Edward and be married to him. I spent the night at Jade's house because I am not allowed to see the house before the wedding. I just wonder how Alice is going to get me to the house; I mean my dress is not going to fit very well in a car. I guess Alice know everything about what is going to happen today. I am still laying in bed when I got a knock on the door.
"Come in," I told who ever it was.
Just then Jade, Alice, Ange, mom and Rose all came in smiling really big at me. I started to blush because everyone was staring at me. I will be a blushing bride big time, I thought to myself.
"Good morning Bella, are you ready for today?" mom asked me.
I smiled at her and then Jennifer and Marcie came in smiling at me.
"Yes, I am ready to see Edward again. So what are we going to do first?" I asked them smiling.
Alice then came and sat on the bed and smiled.
"Well first, you are getting a shower and then eat. After that its going to take a bit for us to get dressed so we are going to let you rest some while the rest of us get ready. Then me and Rose will start on you with everyone else help. So get your butt into the shower and then go downstairs while the rest of us get ready. Then at 1pm we are going to take you home and you are going to get on Emmett's back so he can take you up the wall to your room where we will put your dress on and the last finishing touches," she told me.
I just nodded and did as she said. I rubbed my eyes and looked in the mirror and saw the bruise that was still on my forehead but the knot was gone. I fixed my shower and climbed in to relax some and to get cleaned. I washed my body twice, and my hair twice. I shaved my legs and underarms twice. When I was done with that I got out and put my robe on that Jade got me. It was very soft and purple and I love it. I wrapped it around me and walked out of the bathroom to see Jade and Ange getting ready. Alice was going to do all of their makeup and hairs all here and do mine at the house here soon. I smiled at them and walked by them smiling then headed out the door and downstairs where breakfast was ready.
I sat down on the couch and ate some food while watching TV. I was feeling really sleep so I relaxed some and closed my eyes to rest. I was being woke up not to long later by mom shaking me awake.
"Bella honey, its going on noon and its your turn. Alice told me that we are going to take you home an hour earlier because she wants to, or that is what she said. So lets go because they are waiting for us in the car," mom told me.
I got up and stretched and it felt really good. Mom grabbed my arm and pulled me out of the house an into a waiting limo. I got in still in just my robe and saw all the girls in there, except the Denali clan because they are helping with the decorating. I have no idea who is going to be at mine and Edward's wedding so I guess we will just have to wait and see. Jade just lived two miles from us so we were at the house in no time. When we pulled into the driveway it was decorated with white lights and bows. Then when the limo stopped I got to see the outside of the house and it was beautiful, covered in purple and white flowers everywhere. I pulled my mouth back to where it is suppose to be and smiled.
"Alice, the house on the outside is just beautiful; I love it so much," I told her.
"Thank you so much Bella, I knew you would love it. So lets get you up to your room to finish getting you ready," she told me.
I smiled and we started to walk to the side of the house where I saw Emmett standing in his tux; he looked so cute and handsome. Rose ran up to him in her dress and they kissed. I walked up to Em and he smiled at me.
"Emmett Cullen, here as your elevator to your room," he told me through a laugh.
He bent down and I climbed on and he started to scale the wall up to the third floor. I heard the girls laughing and I looked out the window to see the others climbing the walls also smiling. They all climbed through the window with Jennifer on moms back. I looked around and saw that everything was lay out ready for me to be puffed, powered and curled. I then turn and looked at them in the room with me.
"Why were you all laughing when Em was carrying me up the wall?" I asked them.
"Well honey, we all got a good view of your butt," mom told me and they all started to laugh again.
Em turned to look at them and then he looked at me and walked out. I wish Edward was here so he could tell me what Em was thinking. Alice cleared her throat and we all turned to look at her.
"Okay girls, please go help the guys with the last touches while me and Rose work on Bella, please," Alice told them.
I was being hugged and kissed while they all left me in the room with Rose and Alice. Alice guided me to a chair and told me to take my robe off; I did as she said and then she pushed me some and I fell into the chair. I looked at my naked self in the mirror and I looked scared and happy all at the same time. I then felt someone shaking and saw that it was me. Alice put her hand on my shoulders and turned the chair to her.
"Bella, please take a deep breath and calm down. If I have to, we will cover you up so Jasper can work his mood magic on you," she told me.
I shook my head no and took many deep breaths and I started to calm down some. I stopped shaking and I just closed my eyes and thought of me and Edward somewhere on our honeymoon. He wont tell me where we are going so I have been guessing different places. I started to fell stuff being put on me and then I started to think about my parents that left me. I don't know them but I knew they would loved to have been here. My dad Charlie would be walking me instead of Carlisle and I would see my mom Renee crying because she was so happy for me. Just one thing I am glad that they are not here; I wont have to leave them when I am changed into a vampire and hurt them that way. I felt myself tearing up and I stopped it before the tears spilled over. I then felt a hand on my shoulder and I opened my eyes to see a smiling Alice.
"Bella, it will all be okay. They are watching you from heaven so please don't cry and start feeling happy again. Jasper called me and told me that he could feel your sadness from outside. Also, its time to get your undergarment on and then your dress," Alice told me.
I took a deep breath and smiled. As I was standing up I saw a white piece of paper on my desk and Alice saw what I was looking at. She grabbed it before I could read it and smiled at me.
"I would let you read the invitation but you would start to cry. The makeup and stuff is waterproof but you don't need to be crying; at least not yet," Alice told me with a smile.
I smiled back at her and then started to put on my matching bra and panty set that was a dark purple. Then Alice made a call and my room was full of women awaiting to see my dress. Mom, Alice, Rose, and Jennifer all helped get the dress over my head and body and I loved the feeling of he silk over my body. Alice then attached the train and then mom and Rose started to put little white flowers in my hair. Jennifer told me to bend over some and I did so she could put my tiara on. Then Jade put my veil on me. Mom then stepped up to me and smiled.
"Bella, I have something for you. When we went through your parents house to see what you would like to keep of theirs we found some of your moms jewelery. I know you would love to wear your moms necklace that she wore on her's and Charlie's wedding. So turn around and let me put it on you," mom told me.
I bent down some so she could put the necklace on me and I stood up when she was done. I looked at the pic of my mom and dad in their wedding picture and I had the blue diamond on that mom wore. I started to feel tears to build because I really wanted them to be here in person. I turned to my mom and hugged her. I started to cry, I just could not help it. She rubbed my back to comfort me.
"Bella, they would be really proud of how your turned out. Don't be sad baby girl, they would want you to be happy. Also that is something blue and something old," mom told me.
I looked at Alice and she smiled at me. Then she gave me a hug and kissed my cheek very lightly.
"Bella, I am going to let you barrow my garter, but I want it back. So sit easily and I will slip it onto your leg," she told me.
I sat down and started to move because her hands were so cold on my legs. I was laughing and so was everyone else in the room. I looked at the clock on the wall and it said it was 1:30pm meaning that I was fixing to get married here very soon. I could hear the door open and shut as people started to show up and I could smell the flowers that were everywhere in he house. I started to panic again and had to take some deep breaths.
"Okay ladies, the ones not part of the wedding party here please go take your seats. Mom, send the guys in also, please," Alice told everyone.
Jennifer and the others that were up here with me gave me a light hug and left. That left me and my Bride Maids. Then the guys came in smiling when they saw me, I then felt a calming wave come over me and I smiled at Jasper.
"Wow sister, you are beautiful. Edward is going to be smiling from ear to ear when he sees you. I love you little sis," Emmett told me.
I gave him a hug and smiled at everyone. Then dad came in smiling and carrying in my flowers that I am going to be carrying. He gave me a light hug also and smiled at me.
"Bella, you look so beautiful. Alice and the girls have out did their selves making you look like this. I am so happy for you and Edward. I love you daughter," dad told me.
I told him that I loved him also and then I heard the music start playing for the others to line up and start walking. So we all left my room and they all lined up like they should. Rose and Emmett; Alice and Laurent; Ange and Eleazar; then Jade and Jasper were behind them because they are my maid of honor and Edward's Best Man. I heard the song River flows in you by Yiruma playing and they all started to descend down the stairs. I looked at dad and started to feel nervous because of the stairs. He looked at me and smiled. Then the music changed to Canon in D by Pachelbel and I knew it was our turn. I looked at my dad and smiled.
"Don't let me fall daddy," I told him.
"I won't honey, never," he told me.
Then we started our descend down the stairs and I was so thankful that my heals were not that big. I did not take my eyes off the stairs till I go to the bottom of the stairs and then I looked up to see quite a few people there and flowers everywhere. Hanging from everything and it was just so beautiful. I then looked to the front and saw what I have been waiting for; Edward. He smiled really big which made me to smile back and I so wished we could hurry up. Finally I was there in front of my one true love my angel Edward. Then dad placed my hand into Edward's hand and stood there a minute.
"Who gives this girl to this man?" Mr. Weber asked.
"Her mother and I do," dad told him.
Mr. Weber smiled and nodded then looked at us.

Mr. Weber:
We are gathered here today to celebrate one of life's greatest moments, to give recognition to the worth and beauty of love and to cherish the words which shall unite Edward Anthony Masen Cullen and Isabella Marie Swan-Hale, in marriage.
Opening:
Mr. Weber,
Edward and Isabella, in the days ahead of you there will be times of difficulty and conflict. When you find yourselves in there situations I ask you to reflect on this marriage advice:
Let your love be stronger than your anger.

Confide in your partner and ask for help when you need it.
Remember that true friendship is the basis for any lasting relationship.
Give your spouse the same courtesies and kindnesses you bestow on your friend.
Say "I LOVE YOU" Everyday.
Vows:
Mr. Weber,
It is now time for these two to exchange vows. They have wrote vows that they would like to say to each other.
Edward, you may say your vows to Isabella that you wrote to her.
"You are not the air I breathe,
you are the sweet scent that drifts upon it.
You are not the sound that I hear,
you are the music of my life.
You are not the food I need,
you are the nourishment of my soul.
You are not my will to survive,
you are my reason for living.
It is with you that I experience
the wonders of the world.
It is with you that I triumph
over the challenges in my path.
It is your partnership that will lead me
to the fulfillment of my dreams.
It is your friendship that guides me
as I grow and learn.
It is your patience and wisdom
that calms my restless nature.
It is through you I know my true self.
I do not take you for granted,
I cherish you.
I do not need you,
I choose you.
I choose you today in witness
of all the people who love us.
I choose you tomorrow,
in the privacy of our hearts.
I choose you in strength and weakness.
I choose you in health and sickness.
I choose you in joy and sorrow.
I will choose you, over all others, everyday for all the days of forever,".
I was crying by then because it was just so beautiful.
Mr. Weber:
Isabella, you may read your vows that you wrote to Edward.
"I love you. You are my best friend.
Today I give myself to you in marriage.
I promise to encourage and inspire you,
to laugh with you, and to comfort you in
times of sorrow and struggles.
I promise to love you in good times and bad, when life seems easy,
and when it seems hard.
When our love is simple and when
it is an effort.
I promise to cherish you, and to always
hold you in highest regard.
These things I give to you today and forever," I told him through tears.
Mr. Weber:
With this understanding, do you Edward take Isabella to be your beloved wife? Do you promise to be a tender, faithful husband? Do you promise to love and cherish her, in sickness and in health, for richer or poorer, for better for worse, and keep yourself only unto her?
Edward looked at me and smiled really big again.
"I do with all my heart," he told me.
With this understanding, do you Isabella take Edward to be your beloved husband? Do you promise to be a tender, faithful wife? Do you promise to love and cherish him, in sickness and in health, for richer or poorer, for better for worse, and keep yourself only unto him?
I looked at Edward through tears and smiled.
"I do with all my heart," I told him.
Mr. Weber:
Edward and Isabella have chosen rings as outward symbols of the commitment they make today. From earliest times, the ring has been a symbol of wedding love. An unbroken and never-ending circle symbolizes a commitment to love that is also never ending.
Edward take the ring which you have selected, place it on Isabella's finger, and say to her these words,
This ring, a gift for you, symbolizes my desire that you be my wife from this day forward.
"This ring, a gift for you, symbolizes my desire that you be my wife from this day forward," Edward told me and put the ring on my finger.
Bella take the ring which you have selected, place it on Edward's finger, and say to him these words,
This ring, a gift for you, symbolizes my desire that you be my husband from this day forward.
I smiled and had to clear my throat.
"This ring, a gift for you, symbolizes my desire that you be my husband from this day forward," I told him with a smile.
Mr. Weber:
Let these rings serve not as locks binding you together, but as keys, unlocking the secrets of your hearts for each other to know, and thus bringing you closer together forever.
Closing:
Mr. Weber:
May the sun bring you new energy by day
May the moon softly restore you by night.
May the rain wash away your worries,
and may you live the days of your lives in peace, love and happiness.
Pronouncement
Mr. Weber:
Edward and Isabella, having witnessed your vows for marriage with all who are assembled here, and by authority vested by me, I announce with great joy that you are husband and wife.
You may seal you vows with a kiss; Edward, you may kiss your bride.
Edward leaned toward me and when our lips touched it was magical. We kissed for a little bit and then Mr. Weber clapped.
"Ladies and gentlemen, it is my honor to present to you for the first time as husband and wife: Mr. and Mrs. Edward Cullen.
Everyone then stood up and started to cheer for us. We just looked each other in the eyes and said we love each other. We started to walk down the isle and being hugged as we went. I got pulled away from him a couple of times and I did not care for that but we were back in each other hands. We made our way down the isle and out the door where we were greeted by Alice. She hugged us and then looked at us.
"Oh congrats guys, Bella you were my sister and now you are my sister-in-law. I love both of you very much and very happy for you two. Edward, my brother. I love you and always will. Now Bella if you would, turn around and I will disconnect your train. As soon as everyone leaves the living room we will go back in there and get ready to be announced in the reception," Alice told us.
Edward grabbed me then and pulled me to him and smiled. Then his lips crashed down onto mine and I forgot everything and everyone around us.
Well peeps, that is it for the big wedding. So what did you all think of it? I hope it was enough detail and you all loved it. Also, I tomorrow I will be writing about the reception and there will be more fun there. Thanks for reading and being there for me guys. Thanks again, love you all, JenCullen28.
