The next morning started off with rushing around and didn't get any less busy. It was wedding day and the guys were all getting ready together.
Jaden: "God, when was the last time we were all together? Josh's wedding 13 years ago?"
Q: "We'd have been at your wedding if you hadn't eloped."

Lucas: "You and Harlow's Mom eloped? Didn't your parents freak out?"
Jaden: "Of course, but I'd spent so long being scared of that love... really being scared of everything that we just jumped."
As he remembered the moment he'd kissed his future wife at the top of the stairs and almost shouted the words I love you all those years ago, he realized he was doing the same with Harlow. He was so scared of her growing up that he was hiding from it. It was as if he kept her a kid forever then he didn't have to admit that he'd failed her childhood.
Jaden: *pulling $20 from his wallet* "Here, if you're gonna take my daughter to this wedding as your date you need to do it right and bring flowers."
Lucas' smile grew wide and Jaden pulled him into a hug.
*END JADEN'S POV
The girls had all gathered in the back room of the chapel and were getting ready together. Harlow was helping get Lucas' little brother and sister into their outfits as ring bearer and flower girl. They were so cute.
Olivia: "It's crazy that you guys are finally getting married."

Harlow: "Why do you think it took you so long when you've been together basically as long as my parents, Nessa and Josh. They all got married when they were kinda young."
Avani: "Anthony and I waited maybe 7 years, so I think everyone just has their own timetable."
