The Perfect Wedding

It was the perfect proposal.

He asked her on the docks, with the ring he gave her in Camelot, one week after defeating the Lord of the underworld himself.

When they announced their engagement, David almost launched into his overprotective dad speech, but Snow thankfully stopped him by asking when the wedding was. Emma and Killian glanced at each other.

"Um, we haven't thought about it."

"How about September 27?" Killian asked.

"That sounds fine. We can plan it later. For now, I want to celebrate on being engaged to the man I love so much." Emma said, mainly to see how her dad would react. She was not disappointed.

Charming nearly choked on his water much to the amusement of the rest of the table.

"So, the wedding will be at the docks, overlooking the sea at 7:00 P.M. Regina is the maid of honor, and Henry will be your best man. What kind of cake do you want? I was thinking chocolate but...Why are you looking at me like that?" Emma asked, due to Killian's smirk.

"I never thought you would get so involved in the wedding planning."

He said with a smile playing on his face.

"This is our wedding Killian, I want it to be so perfect." Emma sighed.

"Even if it's not, all that matters is at the end of the day, you will be Emma Jones." Killian soothed.

She leaned forward and kissed him softly.

"I've always been partial to strawberry?" Killian admitted.

"Strawberry?!" Emma exclaimed, sitting upright.

Killian blushed faintly.

"Aye, love."

She cupped his cheek with her hand. "Strawberry it is then."

Bridal shopping was a disaster. Emma had too many people with strong opinions. Worst of all, she had hardly gotten three words from Killian. After the eighth dress was shot down, Emma lost it.

"In case anyone cared, I happened to like the second dress. This is MY wedding and MY dress." Emma fled into the dressing room, leaving everyone gaping.

Regina rolled her eyes. "Great, who wants to go confront the Bridezilla?"

"I'll go talk to her." Snow volunteered quickly.

Killian stopped her. "No, I'm going to be her husband, I better get the practice. He gave her a quick smile and she relented.

Killian found her crying on the floor of her dressing room, her dress halfway off. Killian helped her out of the dress and hugged her. "Always the gentleman." She smiled through her tears. "Why didn't you say anything back there?"

Killian fidgeted nervously before speaking. "I don't know anything about weddings. This is all so new. I don't know all the customs here yet. I'm sorry."

He wiped away the tears on her cheeks. "I liked dress number two." She rested her head on his shoulder. "I'm glad."

As he fidgeted with his tie for the umpteenth time, he thought about the first time Emma told him those three perfect words, when she gave him half of her heart, and when she happily accepted his proposal. He recalled their first two kisses. The first one so full of need and passion, and the second one so tender and beautiful. He was a villain, and she changed him completely. The princess and the pirate, so full of love for each other that could never be quenched. He felt half of her heart beating through his chest, and love overwhelmed him again.

Emma was freaking out at her house. They had misplaced the rings, and had a thirty minute search party before Henry finally found them under the dresser. Sneezy was allergic to strawberries and last minute chocolate cupcakes were made.

Regina used magic to do her hair and makeup, which she was extremely grateful for. She had a bouquet of red and middlemist roses. She couldn't help twirling a little in her full skirt.

"It's time to walk down the aisle." Regina announced. Emma rode in the carriage her mother absolutely insisted on giving her. The moon over the waves was breathtaking, and she couldn't wait to enjoy it with her husband.

When she stepped out of the carriage, it seemed like time was in slow motion. David led her down the aisle, smiling broadly. Snow had already started pulling the tissues out of her purse, causing Killian to laugh quietly.

Emma was stunningly beautiful. Her dress was the white duplicate of the one she wore in past Enchanted Forest.

"You look amazing."

"You look handsome yourself, Captain." She smirked.

As Archie Hopper began the ceremony, Killian couldn't focus on anything but Emma. When it was time for the vows, he spoke them from his heart. "Emma Swan, when I met you, your walls were miles high. Our love will always prove no matter the realm, not even death can part us. With this ring, I vow to love you, protect you, and care for you, through any trial we face." He slipped his ring onto her finger. "Killian Jones, you broke down my walls, one by one. This ring, and my heart, is a reminder of of true love defeating the most powerful enemies. I vow to love you, protect you, and care for you through any trial we face."

" I know pronounce you husband and wife. Killian, you may now kiss your bride." Archie said.

They kissed and everyone including David smiled.

"Ladies and gentleman, I present to you, Mr and Mrs Killian Jones!"

The reception was wonderful. They stuffed cake in each others faces, and waltzed arm in arm.

Emma Jones had never been so happy. She was a wife, something she only dreamed of for years. Henry was growing up, and she realized she wanted more family. She could barely wait to get to work on that. She laughed so much her face hurt, but couldn't help it. They shared many kisses through the night, and never left sides. Dinner was delicious, and they crammed as much as possible into their stomachs. It was 2:00 AM when everyone left. Regina's magic easily took care of the clean up, and sent an exhausted Emma and Killian home immediately. Henry spent the night at Regina's so they could fully enjoy their honeymoon.
