It was a long few months for Aria. The club was having trouble with everyone it seemed. She was stressing herself out trying to plan a wedding that wasn't too extravagant or expensive. She just wanted to be married and didn't want to have this huge event although she knew Gemma would want to make something huge out of it. Quinn wasn't able to spend much time at home with her which didn't help her mood any. The long-haired biker was stressing over the wedding along side all the club's business he was dealing with. He wanted their wedding day to be perfect for her, for it to be all she dreamed of.
Aria didn't want it to be boring but didn't want it to be overly flashy. Gemma was surprised when she decided to go with a black and gold theme for the wedding. It surprised the older woman even more when Aria told her that her wedding dress was going to be black. Plans slowly began to come together. All Quinn's brothers were being invited to the wedding including some of the guys he knew when he was still the president of the Nomad charter. It was going to be a big biker wedding but it was going to be classy. Aria ordered shot glasses and had them engraved for party favors for all the guests and loved how they'd come out when she received them.
Aria decided she wanted to get married in the Charming Gardens. Gemma had loved the idea. Quinn went with whatever his lover wanted knowing it was really more her day than anything. Gemma helped her find a good wedding reception site so they could make arrangements and get everything together. She hired a wedding photographer for the night while Gemma helped get the catering set up. The closer it got to her wedding day, the more stressed Aria became. She was even a little tense when she was streaming which she finally broke down and told her followers she was getting married. The positive feedback from her news was almost overwhelming and it made her cry some. Jax was debating on calling for a lockdown the day before the wedding which added even more stress to Aria and Quinn. "I'm not losing my security deposits on everything for a damned lockdown!" Aria had exclaimed to her 'ol man.
To her relief, Jax had been able to smooth things over and the wedding was to go on as planned. Aria sighed with relief hearing the news. The club were all curious as to what Aria and Quinn's wedding was going to look like knowing she was quite the unique individual and he was an outlaw biker. The wedding site was simple since they were surrounded by the beauty of the gardens. Quinn shocked everyone with his tux, wearing his kutte over it like a good biker, and had to laugh at some of their reactions. He waited patiently at the alter for his bride before the wedding started. Most could see how nervous the long-haired biker was as he stood there. Soon, the wedding march started and she made her entrance. Everyone stood to watch her walk down the aisle. Quinn's breath caught in his throat as he got a look at his bride for the first time in her wedding dress.
(A/N: Except their names on the shot glasses)
She smiled at him as she approached. He grabbed her hands as the JP began his spiel. Neither could take their eyes off one another and everyone else just disappeared around them. They each wrote their own vows, with him being sure to put in the "standard" biker spiel about treating her as good as his leather and riding her as much as his Harley. She shook her head but all he could do was smile at her. It felt like forever to her before the JP finally announced them as husband and wife. Quinn was quick to pull her into his arms and crash his lips to hers making all his brothers cheer loudly. She grabbed his arm as they strolled down the aisle to the ride that had been rented to take them to the reception site. She was not able to ride on his bike in her dress and he didn't want to take the chance of something happening to it.
"You look incredible, Lil Bit." He told her making her face tint.
"Thanks. You look amazing too." She replied.
"I can't wait to see the reception." He stated.
"I think it's going to be beautiful. I hope you like it." She said.
"I'm sure I will. I have you that's all that matters." He exclaimed before pulling her in for another passionate kiss.
"I can't believe we actually did this." She giggled bringing a smile to his face.
"Now we're officially official, Mrs. Quinn." He grinned.
"Mrs. Quinn. I like that. Has a nice ring to it." She smiled at him.
"I completely agree." He stated before pulling her back into another kiss.
They pair sat in the back of the car making out until they'd reached the reception site. The door was opened for them so he stepped out first before holding his hand out for her. He helped her out of the car and walked into the building. The wedding photographer wanted to start getting their official wedding photos as their guests arrived and had cocktails. Most people were a bit shocked at how fancy everything looked when they walked into the reception site. Gemma smiled at how everything had come together while they walked around and had cocktails. Tig was excited for the open bar! Once the pair were finished with taking their wedding photos, they joined their guests.
Everyone cheered and clapped for the happy couple making her smile widely at everyone. Dinner would be served soon but they wanted to thank everyone for coming. Everyone shook his hand and gave her a hug as the couple thanked them for attending the wedding. Gemma had been hesitant about whether Aria could handle Quinn's lifestyle when the pair first hooked up but seeing them now, Aria practically glowing, any doubts about the young woman slipped away. The pair finally made it to their sweetheart table as dinner was being announced as about to be served. People began making their way to their seats.
Aria looked out at all the bikers and their 'ol ladies and had to smile. Never in a million years did she think she'd have this huge network of support when she packed up her apartment to move in with her aunt. She never thought she'd find the love of her life within the biker community either but there she was on her wedding day with a biker and his club celebrating their union. He'd already asked her to be his 'ol lady and now they were legally married in the eyes of California. She was taking his last name too. Would her aunt be proud of the way she'd handled things? Would her aunt had liked what she put together for her wedding? Smiling to herself, she thought her Aunt Linda would.
Despite the danger his club brought into her life, she had made a good life for herself with Quinn. He treated her like a Queen. He looked after her to the best of his abilities. She treated him the very same. Her stream was getting more and more recognition and she was getting more followers and subscribers all the time. She was able to support herself without his income and he was able to support himself without depending upon her income. They were a partnership. They were companions. They were lovers. They were friends. She had a simple life, really, but she liked it. She knew as long as she had Quinn by her side, she could handle anything life threw at her. Aria made Quinn a better man. He was much more careful about his dealings and when they were out on club business because he wanted to make it home to his 'ol lady. She brightened up his world and he brought a little more excitement and danger into hers.
