Getting Married

"Family and Friends, we are all here today to witness the joining in wedded bliss of Emily Fields and Spencer Hastings. This joyous day celebrates the commitment and love which Emily and Spencer share for one another," Alison DiLaurentis said. We had wanted a close friend to be our minister, so Alison had gotten ordained to marry us. Excitement was running through my body, like electricity. I could not believe this day was finally here and was happening for me. It was my wedding, I was marrying Spencer Hastings.

Spencer was standing across from me wearing a traditional white wedding dress, with a small train that fell neatly at her feet. A small crown sat upon Spencer head, which had blue crystals and was given to her by her Mum. Behind Spencer stood Aria Montgomery and Spencer's sister Melissa Hastings. Melissa was family which is why she was in the wedding part. Spencer has elected to have Aria as her maid of honour.

Feeling my hand be squeezed by Spencer, I focused my eyes on Spencer who smile was bright and happy. I had elected to wear a completely white suite, everything from the jacket, shirt, pants, tie and shoes were white. My hair laid flatly down on my shoulder, just the way Spencer like it. Behind me stood Hanna Marin and Toby Cavanaugh, my two closest friends; Hanna was my maid of honour. Our ceremony was being attended by close friends and family, with them all joining us at the reception after the ceremony.

Alison asked "Who gives this woman away to this woman?"

"We do," Peter and Veronica Hastings said standing up. I couldn't resisted smiling over my shoulder at them, they had been nothing but supportive through out entire relationship, even when we were just friends and even when we announced our engagement.

Alison asked again "Who give this woman away to this woman?"

"We do," I heard my Mum and Dad say standing up like the Hastings had done.

Alison spoke "Now before the couple read their vows, I must ask. If anyone here can show cause as to why these two people should not be joined in matrimony, speak now or forever hold your peace?" I looked around fearing someone would accuse but was relieved when that never happened.

Spencer spoke up scaring me "Relax Emily, no one is speaking up. I'm afraid your stuck with me," at Spencer's words everyone gave a small chuckle, I even allowed myself to laugh while relaxing.

"With that out of the way, Spencer and Emily please turn to one another," Alison requested which we did. I had to fight a laugh off, when Aria and Melissa quickly moved to straighten Spencer's dress.

Alison said "Spencer, when you are ready," Alison made a gesture for Spencer to start.

Spencer said "Emily, where do I begin? Well at the start of course. When I was five, I had my first encounter with a bully. These boys were picking on me because I was smart and didn't have any friends. I went home that day crying and wondering why I had to be different, what was it about me that made me so different. When I was seven, I fell off my bike at this every park. I remembered crying in pain, I thought I had broken my arm but it was just a graze. I then saw these big chocolate brown eyes in front of my face and this soft voice asking if I was okay. All I could do was nod my head. After receiving my answer, the girl with brown eyes left. I never received her name, little did I know that I had just met the girl I was going to marry. "

"The next day at school, those group of boys bullied me again. They pushed me backwards of the swing set, I remember my heart racing because my head going to hit the ground. But then arms, strong arms wrapped around me; stopping me from falling. After sitting me up right on the swing, those arms left and went to go beat up those boys. This girl who seemed to be my protector had to miss two weeks of recess, I felt bad for getting her into trouble; especially because I didn't know her name. "

"It wasn't until high school that I learnt her name, her name was Emily Fields. I thought it was the most beautiful name in the world, I still had no idea that this girl would turn out to be my wife. We were paired in the same group for English with Alison, Aria and Hanna. Before anyone knew what was happening, the five of us became in spreadable. Wherever one was, another was likely right behind us. It wasn't until Junior year of high school that I shared my first kiss with my brown eyed, strong arms hero and still then I didn't know. "

"When High School finished, I thought Emily and I were breaking up because that's what happens to most high school sweetheart couples. It wasn't until Emily told me she was accept into Hollis, that I knew she was the one for me. Emily had declined offers from Yale, Harvard, Princeton to stay here in Rosewood with me. I had told Emily she couldn't choose me over the bright swimming future, that life had in store for her. Emily said to me, she could. I didn't understand, how could Emily chose me over swimming. Emily said to me, it was easy. "

"It took me months to forgive Emily and anyone who was around during that month, hate it just as much as we did. Midway through our third year at Hollis, Emily decided she wanted to move out of home; which was not easy for her. She didn't want to leave her Mum, all by herself but it was sadly time for Emily to grow up and get her own house. Emily rented the closet apartment, which ended up being two blocks away from her parents house. Emily told me, it had just happened but anyone who knows Emily, knows she did it on purpose. Despite my fathers requested to focus on my classes, I spent most nights at Emily's new apartment. "

"It wasn't until our final year at Hollis that I moved in, that was a journey in itself. It was after my final test at Hollis when Emily proposed to me, I was so shocked. Emily didn't seem like the marriage type, I just thought we'd be together like we were forever. While still stunned, I said yes. Of course, I was going to marry Emily Fields. So, here we are two years later finally getting married. We've had bumps and scraps. We've had good and bad times. We've had adventures together. We still have plenty more to follow. Emily, it's simple I Love you and cannot wait to call you my wife. I realise now, I've spoken a lot but I needed for everyone to know our story because I love our story." I watched as Spencer went through her vows, which just recounted our story but it was a beautiful story to tell.

Alison spoke "Beautiful words Spencer. Now, Emily do you think you can follow that?"

"I'll give it ago," I say chuckling, a little nervous.

Clearing my throat, I said "Let's see if I can get throw this without crying."

"Tissues on stand-by," Hanna and Toby said. Turning to look at them, I saw they were both holding packet of tissues for me and I quickly took Hanna's because she was closer to me.

"Spencer, in you I found my best friend. Spencer, in you I found my girlfriend. Spencer, in you I found my first love. Spencer, in you I found my Fiancée. Spencer, in you I found my wife. While you didn't know, I knew the whole time that you were the girl for me. No one could make me as happy as you could, no one could make me laugh as much as you could."

I stop to take a deep breath, Spencer asked "You okay?"

I replied with "Really, trying not to cry."

"It's okay," Spencer said running her thumb over hand.

With a deep breath, I continue "I never thought this day would happen, I also think my Mum never thought this day would happen," I stop to allow everyone to laugh.

"I didn't think I would ever find someone who made me feel so loved and so happy, but in you Spencer Hastings I found that. I found my life in you Spencer. I want to be a better person for you and because of you. I want to give you everything, you can ever desire. I promise you today in front of our friends and family, things won't always be happy between us but I promise to neither walk. I will always stay standing right their by your side or sitting, depending on the situation we are in. I love you Spencer soon to be Fields. Welcome to my family and thank-you for letting me into yours." I nod my head at Alison to signal I had finished.

Alison said "Great job, Emily. I see only a few tears have fallen," I smile at Alison.

Alison asked "Who has the rings?"

"I do," Aria and Hanna said at the same time. While Spencer turns to Aria, I turn to Hanna who hands me my ring to Spencer. Hanna quickly dabs my face with tissues to wipe away the tears that had fallen during mine and Spencer's vows.

Once Spencer and I were facing each other again, Alison spoke "Emily, repeat after me. With this ring, I thee wed."

"With this ring, I thee wed," I say before pushing the ring down Spencer's ring finger; careful not to hurt her.
Alison said "Spencer, repeat after me. With this ring, I thee wed."

Spencer spoke "With this ring, I thee wed." Spencer then slide the ring down my ring finger, also being careful but I had to dig my teeth into my lips when her nail scrapped my finger a little.

Alison said not hiding her excitement "With the power vested in by the state of Pennsylvania, I know pronounce you wife and wife. You may kiss your bride." Without needing to be told twice, I lean forward and connect my lips with Spencer. I felt Spencer arms come up around my neck and pull me deeper into her, as well as the kiss. Breaking away from the kiss, I looked down at our friends and family who had stood up and were clapping for us.
Like requested our bridal parties quieten everyone back down and I said "Thank-you all for coming to witness our marriage to each other, it mean a great deal to us that you could all be here. We have one last requested, today marks eight years since Spencer and I start dating. Can we all please clap eight times together and one for good luck?"

Together we counted our claps "One. Two. Three. Four. Five. Six. Seven. Eight and one for good luck." It was amazing to see and here everyone clapping at the same time and all in celebration.

Spencer shouts "Who's ready to party!?"

"We are," Aria, Melissa, Hanna, Toby and Alison shouted together. With that Spencer and I lead the bridal party back down the aisle, accepting congratulations, hugs, kisses and handshakes from family and friends.

The End.
