290 Catching The Bouquet
Selma Payne’s POV:
The moonlight shone upon Avril’s beautiful face, making her look like an angel sculpted out of white clouds by the God of Forging.
I held the bright flowers and helped her hold her wedding dress from behind. I asked softly, “Are you still nervous?”
“At a ti like this, it’s very calm,” she said with a smile. “I’ve already been nervous about what I should be during the day. Now, I can only feel joy and happiness.”
The girls cheered.
Avril’s parents ca to lead their daughter into the venue. Seeing her daughter’s unconcealed joy, Avril’s mother choked and said, “In my impression, you’re still a little girl. In the blink of an eye, you’ll get married.”
“Mommy...” Avril’s eyes reddened.
“Alright, the ceremony is about to begin. Don’t ruin your makeup with your tears.” Avril’s father tried to stop his daughter from crying, even though he had tears in his eyes.
After sorting out her emotions, Avril held the flowers in her hands and said firmly, “Let’s go,” she said.
Through the thorny and vine-woven flower gate, across the path paved with countless petals, under the guidance of the moonlight, the elegant bride slowly walked toward her lover on the stage. The moon halo covered her with a hazy veil, the bay leaf exuded a soft fragrance, and the gorgeous skirt glistened. All the factors spared no effort to accentuate the bride’s beauty.
The mont he turned around, Perrin was stunned. He couldn’t react until Avril was in front of him.
“... you’re so beautiful.” He looked silly when he opened spoke as he stared at her, but it also contained a shining love.
The newbies stood still, and the priest went on stage.
“We’ve gathered here tonight to witness a couple make an eternal vow under the moon.”
“Perrin Marshall, in good or bad, rich or poor, healthy or sick, happy or sad, will you love the lady beside you forever and loyally? Swear your loyalty to the moon and promise it will never change until the end?”
Perrin held Avril’s hand tightly and said, “I do.”
Avril Carvallo, in good or bad, rich or poor, healthy or sick, happy or sad, will you love the gentleman beside you loyally and unwaveringly forever? Swear to the moon your loyalty and promise that it will never change until the end?”
Looking into Perrin’s eyes, Avril said, “I do.”
“Does anyone present have any objections to this sacred marriage?”
Of course not.
The priest sprinkled holy water that reflected the moonlight on the newlyweds and announced loudly, “In the na of the Moon Goddess, I hereby announce that you are officially husband and wife! Now, please put the ring on her.”
A cute flower girl ca on stage with a soft cushion. Two plain brass rings lay in the middle of the dark blue velvet.
After putting the rings on each other, before the priest could say anything, the newlyweds hugged each other intimately and kissed each other passionately to declare their love to the crowd.
The elderly priest smiled in a tolerant manner.
After the ceremony, the night party began.
The bride had been eyeing the stage for a long ti and pulled the groom to perform the first opening dance. Halfway through the dance, the eager best n and bridesmaids ca onto the stage, and then the dance went out of control. There was music and dance everywhere, as well as cheers and laughter. The newlyweds were glued to each other, the guests applauded, and even the old priest humd lively music.
I pulled Aldrich to dance one round after another. At first, the girls wanted to pull away to have fun, but later, perhaps they saw that there was no room for a ‘third party’ between us, they left and ran to the dining table to eat cupcakes.
“Are you tired?” Wiping away the sweat on my forehead, Aldrich brought to the soft rhythm of the music. “You’ve been busy all day. You should take a good rest.”
I panted lightly, but I felt so excited. “I’m not tired at all. I love weddings so much. I’ll never feel tired in a place I like.”
“Do you like this kind of wedding?”
“Of course! Everyone is chatting, laughing, playing, and being so cozy!”
However, even if I liked it, I knew that my wedding was destined to be unable to be so full of excitent. The royal wedding was a grand event for all the people in the country. This ant that I would receive thousands more blessings, but I also had to pay a certain price. For example, I had to be reserved and polite in front of the cara. I would never be able to ‘disobey the rules’ like Avril and hold his lover like that.
After an unknown ti, the girls pulled out of the sweet barrier and said, “Hurry! She’s going to throw the bouquet!”
Avril was already standing on the stage, with many young n and won behind her, hoping the bouquet representing happiness would fall into their arms.
“I’m going to throw it! Three, two, one!” Avril counted down quickly.
The colorful bouquet ford a beautiful arch in the air, and then-
It fell into my arms!
The girls scread in excitent. They looked at and then at Aldrich. They were so excited that they almost fainted.
I was so stunned that I didn’t even have ti to react.
Until Aldrich hugged my waist and whispered, “What’s wrong? Aren’t you happy that you’re holding the bouquet?”
“Of course, I’m happy, ” I laughed. Of course, I am!
“I can’t be happier!”
