He took Rose and dropped her off at Jack's. It was exactly a week before the wedding and she still didn't have a dress. Luckily, Ianto was great with clothes and had agreed to help Rose pick one out.
"Are you sure you want to be here the whole week?" He asked her again.
"You could just get you're dress and then we can pop off and come back for the wedding." He tempted her.
"I can't leave Sarah Jane to take care of everything. She's all ready done enough. Besides it will only be for a week." She tells him and he takes her into his arms and pulls her close. He ran his fingers down her cheek and kissed her forehead and then the tip of her nose before kissing her lips.
He could hardly believe this beautiful woman standing in front of him was the same 19 year old kid he picked up almost 5 years ago. She had matured and changed so much during that time and he was proud of the person she had become. He had loved the idea of her when he had first met her but now he couldn't imagine life without her.
She broke the kiss away, "I hate it when you do that." She said.
"Why,"
"Cause it makes it harder to leave."
"Then don't yet. Kiam's napping and we have a time machine." He picked her up bridal style and headed to her room.

True to his word he had dropped her off at Jack's and then returned the day before the wedding. He walked off the Tardis with Kiam and she ran to him. "How long has it been for you." She asked.
He rubbed the back of his neck. "Uh, Three minutes." She gently smacked him and then kissed him.
"Come on," she pulled him happily into the house and left him with Ianto. He put on the suit Ianto had picked out and was surprised at how well it fit.
"My dad was a master Tailor," Ianto explained. He changed back into his pinstripes and headed downstairs to dinner.
"So Doctor, how does it feel knowing you are going to be married tomorrow." Jack teased him.
"I've been married before," He replied casually.
"Really," Jack says leaning forward. "How many times?"
"Jack," Rose cut in. "Do you really think this is proper conversation the night before my wedding. I mean he does want to get married tomorrow."
He looked at Rose surprised and she smiled at him to let him know she was teasing.
"All right time for bed." He said "Big day tomorrow." He stood up and headed to the front door. He wanted to sleep in Rose's room but she had insisted that it was bad luck. He had laughed but she was right with there life it was better not to chance it. He kissed her goodnight and headed out to the Tardis.

He stood in the front of the church looking out at the small group that had gathered. He saw Sarah Jane and Luke. Martha was there with Mickey and her sister Tish. Ianto was sitting with River. He turned to look at Jack, who was his best man and Jack winked at him. He turned back to the church. There was a group of people on Rose's side that he didn't know. Some were her cousins and aunts and uncles. There was also a grandmother from her dad's side. Her best friend Shareen was standing near by as Rose's maid-of-honor.
The music started and he looked down the aisle to see Kiam, wearing a miniature suit, coming down the aisle with a pillow in his hands that held the rings. The minute Kiam saw him he took off running and grabbed on to his legs. He smiled as everyone laughed. The music changed and everyone stood up as Rose came into view. His hearts skipped a beat looking at her. She was wearing a simple white dress with no veil. Her hair was done in a loose bun with curls falling around her face and little white flowers. She looked at him and smiled.
As she reached him, he had to resist the urge to kiss her as he took her hand and turned toward's the preacher.

The reception was still in full swing even though it had been going for a couple of hours now. Jack was getting drunker and drunker and right now he could hear him talking loudly to Ianto and River about things he could do, that weren't really appropriate for most ears.
He looked at River and gestured his head towards the pool just outside of the doors. She smiled and he watched as she led Jack outside and a few minutes later heard Jack scream and saw him flying into the water.
He laughed and looked around for Kiam who was sitting on Sarah Jane's lap eating another piece of cake. He tried to calculate how many pieces the little boy was up to. He had put a stop to Kiam getting his own cake at two but the little boy had used his charm to get other people's cake. He grimaced as he thought that they were going to be dealing with one sick little boy later.
He turned his attention to Rose who had her shoes off and was sitting in a chair talking to Shareen. Just over her shoulder he saw someone new standing at the door. It was the last person he expected to see. He walked over to Rose and kissed her.
"I'll be just a minute."
"Is something wrong."
"No, nothing," he gestured to the door and she looked.
"What is she doing her?"
"I'm about to find out." He kissed her again and went over to the woman.
"Hello, Slyvia." He said happily. She looked around the reception, like she was confused that all these people could be here for a man she considered a monster, before she turned to face him.
"Doctor can we talk." She said, "In private."
He gestured and she followed him out of the building and on to the front steps where she sat down. He sat down next to her and she turned to look at him.
"Donna's missing."
