This chapter is rushed due to the fact I have big plans for Ty and Amy. I want to see more of a family aspect and less day to day stuff. Keep writing reviews I do read them and I love the feedback of how I can grow as a writer. Thanks- Sissy

Time flew and before Amy knew it her wedding was tomorrow. She was excited but also nervous. They invited only close friends and family who were either staying at the dude ranch or they lived in the area. Amy had her wedding dress hidden in Georgie's closet. Ty had picked up his tux and had hung it on their closet door. Tonight he was going to sleep in the loft with Caleb while Lou stayed with Amy and Maddie at their house. They were going over the schedule for tomorrow that Lisa had written up for them.

It was basic and she didn't have a schedule for the reception. She told Amy and Ty they could just relax and do things when they wanted to. Ty was holding Maddie on the couch and was giving her a bottle. Amy was trying to make sure that she pumped enough milk for Maddie for the whole weekend. They were leaving tomorrow night for a Banff mountain retreat. They were only going for 2 nights but even that short time away from Maddie was making Amy anxious. Lou and Georgie were going to sleep at Ty and Amy's house so that they could take care of Maddie. Amy had just finished putting the milk in the fridge when Ty walked over and handed her Maddie.
"I better get going before Caleb comes and drags me."
Amy smiled and kissed him. "Well then goodnight Mr. Borden."
"Goodnight Future Mrs. Borden."
Maddie squealed and reached for her daddy. Ty laughed and kissed her head.
"I'll see you tomorrow Maddie."
Amy kissed his cheek. "I love you."
"I love you too."
He grabbed his duffel and left. Amy gave Maddie a bath and changed her into plain pink footie pajamas. She had just sat down on the couch with Maddie when Lou, Georgie, Katie, Mallory, and Soraya walked in. They watched a movie and at 9 o'clock Amy layed Maddie and Katie to bed. The rest of them stayed up chatting until close to 11.

Amy woke up when Lisa walked into the living room. She made the girls breakfast and Amy started getting ready for the day. She and Ty had written their own vows and Amy needed to finish hers. She spent the day with her bridesmaids at the dude ranch. They went for a trail ride then came back and showered. When Lisa came in to do Amy's hair, Amy gave her free rein. She ended up with a curled updo that was a side bun with a daisy wedged in it. Her makeup was subtle but beautiful. The bridesmaids all had their hair curled and pulled half up half down. Katie's hair was curled and left down and she and Maddie had daisy halos around their heads. Their dresses were the same color yellow as the bridesmaids. They were chiffon tank dresses with little puff flowers around the collar. The had little white sandals on their feet. The bridesmaids wore white leather flip flops with flowers on the strap. They all held bouquets of daisies and marigolds. Amy opted not to wear her veil. Before she knew it Lisa told her to go line up. Amy placed Maddie in her little wagon and then met her father and grandfather be the door. Amy had asked that both Jack and Tim walk her down the aisle. Victor Whitetail, who happened to be ordained, was going to be their officiate. Amy was to wait in one of the cabins since the wedding was in front of the pond. Amy peeked out the window and was amazed. All the guest were sitting on white wooden fold chairs. The aisle was lined with large bouquets of marigolds and daisies. The arch that Ty and Amy would stand under was made of old wooden branches, marigolds and daisies. It was simple yet beautiful. Amy heard the music start and caught a glimpse of Ty and Lily walking down the aisle. Amy stood with Tim on her right arm and Jack on her left. She waited 2 minutes then heard the music change. Tim opened the door and the three of them began to walk. Amy's eyes met Ty's and she smiled. Ty was grinning and actually had a tear in his eye. Amy didn't notice the guest or the wedding party all she saw was the man she loved. Soon she was standing before him and Victor spoke.
"Who gives this woman to this man?"
Tim nodded to Jack who then spoke. "Her father, sister, brother, and I do."
Amy kissed her father and grandfather then Tim took her hand and handed it to Ty. Amy passed her bouquet to Lou and gave her other hand to Ty as well. Victor began the ceremony.
"Ty and Amy welcome you, their friends and family. Each of you has given something of yourselves into their lives. It is then fitting then that you share in this celebration of their commitment to each other and to their lives joined in marriage. Do you Ty Daniel Borden choose to marry Amy Linda Fleming. To speak the words that will join her to you as your wife for the rest of your days?"
Ty stared into Amy's eyes. "I do."
"Do you Amy Linda Fleming choose to marry Ty Daniel Borden. To speak the words that will join him to you as your husband for the rest of your days?"
Amy grinned. "I do."
"Ty and Amy have chosen to write their own vows so that the words they speak are truly what they feel in their hearts. Ty you may begin."
Ty took a deep breath before he spoke. "Amy I never imagined when we first met that we would be here today. But after a few days at Heartland I fell in love with your kind heart, determination and adventurous nature. You taught me how to trust people and let them in. You helped me turn my life around and think about my future. I realized quickly that the only future I wanted had you in it. You are an amazing person and know that I will always be proud to call you my wife. I know whatever life will throw us next we will get through it as a family and that whatever comes our way there will be a lot of laughter, love and joy. I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you and Maddie."
Amy had tears in her eyes by the time he was done and a single tear fell from her eye. Ty wiped it away with his thumb. Victor smiled and turned to her. "Amy?"
Amy blinked the tears back and smiled. "Ty, it is still hard to believe that less then 7 years ago you were simply the boy in the loft. I never thought that you would become my best friend, partner in crime, voice of reason, shoulder to cry on, and the most amazing man I would ever meet. I love your big heart, ambitious nature, creativity and determination. We have been through so much together and we are a stronger couple because of it. You gave me a beautiful daughter and more love then I ever have deserved. I know that whatever happens you will stand with Maddie and I through anything life throws our way."
Ty had tears in his eyes but he held them back and smiled. Victor cleared his throat before speaking. "Lou, Caleb will you hand me the rings?"
Lou and Caleb silently passed the rings to him. He held them up and continued. "These rings are symbols of the vows they have just shared. Ty place this ring on Amy's finger."
Ty took the ring and carefully slid the silver band on so it was against her engagement ring.
"Amy place this ring on Ty's finger."
Amy slid Ty's ring on his finger and then looked up to meet his eyes.
"Ty and Amy you have exchanged the words of your heart and rings to symbolize your love and commitment to each other. You have consented to marriage in the presence of those you love most. By the authority vested in me by the Alberta Province I pronounce you husband and wife. Ty you may kiss your wife."
Ty smiled and cupped Amy's face. His lips pressed softly to hers for a second before he pulled away grinning.
"I am honored to present for the first time Mr. and Mrs. Ty Borden."
Their friends and family stood and clapped. Ty lead Amy down the aisle and over to the dude ranch barn where they were doing pictures. Marni's husband was waiting with his camera over to the side. Amy jumped at Ty and wrapped her arms around his neck. He caught her and kissed her deeply. Caleb came up behind Amy laughing.
"Hey save some for the honeymoon."
They pulled apart and posed for pictures. They wanted one of just the groomsmen, one of the bridal party, 2 of just the two of them, 2 group shots, one of them with Wade and Lily, one of them with Amy's family, and one of them with Maddie. Amy was so proud of Maddie. She was quiet through the whole ceremony and cooperated for the pictures. Amy held onto her when Ty brought Spartan and Harley out of the dude ranch barn. They had matching brown tack and their personalized bridles. Amy laughed.
"I'm gonna have to ride side saddle."
Ty smiled, "Did I tell you that you look gorgeous?"
"Thank you." She kissed his cheek. "you look very handsome."
He had on a classic tux with a marigold boutonniere. Amy handed him Maddie and she climbed onto Spartan. She took Maddie until Ty was situated on Harley before handing him the baby again.
The rode up to the front of the main house where a large tent had been set up as the reception area. It was lit by thousands of twinkling lights hanging from the tent top and white paper lanterns lining the exterior of the tent. Underneath were white tables and chairs and a wooden dance floor. The centerpieces were glass bowls filled with water with white floating candles and water lilies inside. Hanging from the tent top were flower bouquet balls of marigolds and daisies. It was the most beautiful wedding Amy had ever seen. The tied Spartan and Harley to the fence and entered the tent. Everyone clapped and they all sat down to eat. Marni kept it simple comfort food. Lisa had even made sure that Maddie had her bouncy seat so that Amy and Ty could eat. When dinner was done and Ty and Amy made there table rounds Lisa went up to the microphone.
"Ok everyone. As a wedding gift for Ty and Amy, Ashley Stanton has written them a song that I felt would be perfect for their first dance. So if Amy and Ty could come to the dance floor."
Amy and Ty walked to the middle of the floor while Ashley took her place behind the microphone.
"I just wanted to say congratulations Ty and Amy. You two are an amazing couple and I wish you a lifetime of love and happiness. So this is for you."
The music began and Ashley began singing:
If you're feeling down or weak
You can always count on me
I will always pick you up
Nothing's ever gonna change
Nothing's gettin' in my way
I will always hold you up
Anything
Come what may
Don't look back forget yesterday
Forget yesterday
[Chorus:]
It's not where you come from
It's where you belong
Nothin' I would trade
I wouldn't have it any other way
You're surrounded
By love and you're wanted
So never feel alone
You are home with me
Right where you belong
I know sometimes you're feeling lost
It's hard to find your place in it all
But you don't have to fear
Even when you mess up
You always got my love
I'm always right here
Oh, cause
Anything
Come what may
Don't look back forget yesterday
Forget yesterday (ay)
[Chorus]
Oooo Oooo (Oooo) [x2]
Don't matter where you've been
Oooo Oooo (Oooo) [x2]
You're here for a reason
Oooo Oooo (Oooo)
Amy loved it. It described their relationship as well as Heartland perfectly. She was crying by the end of the song. Ty kissed her and everyone clapped. When they pulled apart Ty and Amy hugged Ashley who also gave them a recording of the song. Amy and Tim danced to the song My Little Girl by Tim McGraw and Ty and Lily danced to My Wish by Rascal Flatts. They spent the rest of the night dancing and having fun. Lisa made sure they did all the traditional stuff. When they cut the cake, instead of shoving it in the other's face, Amy smashed her piece in Caleb's face while Ty smashed his in Lou's. Amy's bouquet was caught by Georgie who was standing all the way in the back not even trying to catch it and the garter was caught by Clint Reilly. At around 11 o'clock Jack pulled Ty's truck around so that they could drive to Banff. Lou and Peter loaded their bags into the back for them as the left through a cloud of bubbles blown by their guest. Lou was holding Maddie by the truck. They each kissed her goodbye and thanked Lou. Then they were off.

They drive to Banff was quiet. Ty checked them in at the main cabinet then drove them to their cabin. It was small and cute. There was only one bedroom, but it did have a huge bathroom with a bathtub. The front section was all one room. A small kitchen with a dining nook and a large family room with a stone fireplace. Ty set their luggage inside and looked at her.
"Umm do you want to change?"
"Yeah."
Ty grabbed his bag and changed in the bedroom while Amy changed in the bathroom. She had Ty unzip her dress and then shut the bathroom door. She hung her dress in the garment bag Lou packed for her and in her suitcase she found a small package. She opened it and gulped. It was from Lou. Inside was a white lace babydoll slip with a matching thong. The only time Amy and Ty had sex was when they conceived Maddie. After that night they agreed to wait to do it again until they were married. Amy put on the lingerie set and suddenly felt nervous. She never did anything like this. She took a deep breath and reminded herself it was just Ty out there. He knew who she was and would make her feel comfortable. She slowly opened the bathroom door and entered the bedroom. Ty was laying on the bed in just his boxers. When he heard Amy he turned his head and his eyes widened. She walked over and he slid to the edge of the bed and sat up. She walked up to him and he slid his hands up her hips.
"Wow Amy. You look amazing."
"Really?"
"Absolutely."
She straddled his lap and kissed him. He slid his hands up her back and moved his lips to her neck. He gently lifted her and layed her down on the bed and hovered over her. He sucked on her collar bone. He lifted the slip over her head and left a trail of kisses behind it. Amy slid his boxers down and he quickly kicked them off then removed her thong. He reached next to him and grabbed a condom out of a box on the nightstand and slide it on before gently joining their bodies together. When they were done and laying in bed later Amy sent a quick text to Lou telling her they were there and thanking her for her gift. After that Amy fell quickly asleep in Ty's arms.

Amy and Ty enjoyed the resort. When they did decide to emerge from their cabin, which Amy had to admit was mid afternoon, they went on a zip line tour over the forest and swam in the lake. Amy was really missing Maddie. All afternoon she had to stop herself from calling Lou. She and Ty made a deal that they could trust Lou with her alone for two nights and that they wouldn't call. But Amy was really starting to freak. She tried not to show it but Ty could tell that her head was somewhere else. So before they left their cabin to go to dinner he grabbed his cell and told her to call Lou. He walked into the main room will she dialed her sister's number. Lou answered on the 3rd ring.
"Hey Ty."
"Hi Lou it's Amy. I just wanted to check on Maddie."
"Oh...she's...uh...fine."
Amy listened and heard Maddie screaming in the background.
"Lou why is she screaming her head off?"
"What? That's...not Maddie that's...Katie."
"Lou I know my baby's cry."
"Ok. She just misses you guys. She keeps glancing around looking for you. She doesn't cry as long as Georgie is here but she's at ballet right now. But I promise she's fine."
Amy felt like crying. She hated it when Maddie cried and now she was crying and Amy wasn't there to hold her. "Ok Lou. Thank you for watching her. Can you give her a kiss for us?"
"Of course. You two have fun."
"We will. Love you."
"Love you too."
With that she hung up. Amy walked out into the main room and handed Ty his cell phone. She pulled him into a hug and let a few tears escape.
"Is Maddie ok?"
"She misses us. I could hear her crying in the background."
Ty sighed and squeezed her. "We'll be home tomorrow afternoon."
Amy pulled away and pressed a quick kiss to his lips. "I know. So let's enjoy our last baby free night."
He smiled and lead her out the door.
