1 year later, it is Jasper and Emma's wedding day, and all of their friends and family attended the big day to celebrate. Paige became Emma's maid of honour, with two of Emma's friends as her bridesmaids and Sky becomes Jasper's best man, with Ben and Luke as his groomsmen. 

Jasper and Emma say their vows and kiss for the first time as a married couple. At the reception, everyone is having a great time, including Jasper and Emma. In the middle of the reception, instead of a best man and a maid of honour speech, Paige and Sky performs the contemporary dance performance that Jasper and Lily once danced to, for Jasper and Emma. 

"Dancing to the Contemporary, give it up for maid of honour, Paige Smith and best man, Sky Taylor!", the DJ cried out, and everyone applaud and cheered, as Paige and Sky get into their first positions as the music starts playing. 

As Jasper and Emma watch them dance, Jasper remembers the day he dance to the routine with Lily and then with Paige, and smiles, finally seeing his niece truly happy at last. Paige and Sky does their final pose as the song ends, which made all of the wedding guests clap and cheer.

Paige and Sky bow to the guests and they go to embrace Jasper and Emma, who loves the performance. "What do you think, Uncle Jasper?", Paige asked. "You're amazing, kiddo.", Jasper replied, hugging Paige in his arms. "I am so proud of you.", Jasper smiled. 

Later, Jasper and Emma are about to have their first dance, with Paige singing to a love song that she wrote. Paige gets up onstage, with her guitar and holds the microphone. "Hi, everyone. I'm Paige and I'm going sing the song, Shakespeare, which I wrote.  Emma, Uncle Jasper, this song is for you.", Paige smiled. 

The music starts playing, as Jasper and Emma starts dancing and Paige starts playing her guitar and sing the first verse of her song. 

After the first dance, Paige finish singing her song with a smile. "Thank you, everybody and congratulations, Emma and Uncle Jasper. I love you both.", Paige sighed. Paige goes off the stage with her guitar and hugs Jasper and Emma on the dance floor. 

Soon, everyone starts slow-dancing and Paige is outside, looking at the beautiful skyline of New York when Jasper comes out and joins her. "Hey.", Jasper replied. "Hi.", Paige asked. "Enjoying the party?", Jasper asked. "Yeah, just need some quiet time to myself.", Paige replied. "You ok?", Jasper asked. "I'm ok, I'm just thinking.", Paige sighed. 

"About what?", Jasper asked. "About things that happened last year.", Paige replied. "Yeah, a lot of things had happened last year, kiddo.", Jasper sighed. "Some of it was good, but...", Paige smiled. "Some are bad?", Jasper asked. "Yes. I just hope that this year won't be the same as last year.", Paige sighed.

"Paige, a new year will have drama and chaos, you can't avoid it in life. But if you do face it, we'll all be here to help you. You have me, your friends, your dad, your grandparents, Ben, Nicole, Emma and Sky. No matter how much you're struggling, we'll all be here for you.", Jasper smiled.

"Thank you, Uncle Jasper. You have helped me so much last year and have taken such good care for me when I first moved here. I'll owe you back one day.", Paige replied. "No, no. You don't have to do that.", Jasper replied. "I have to give you back something.", Paige cried. "You already have, Paige.", Jasper smiled. "What?", Paige asked. 

"Your mother. You have given another chance to remember her and I'm proud of everything you did to keep your mother's legacy alive in your dancing career. That's enough to owe me.", Jasper smiled, as he stoke Paige's face, who then cries. "Come here.", Jasper smiled, pulling her in for a hug. "I love you.", Paige sighed. "I love you too, kiddo.", Jasper sighed. 

Emma comes out and see the moment between uncle and niece. "Come on, you two. The party's starting.", Emma smiled. "Come on. Let's go, kiddo!", Jasper smiled, as he and Paige goes back to the party and join Emma and Sky on the dance floor. 

 As the reception comes to an end, everyone at the wedding reception decides to have one more last dance. "Ok, as we all know, this wedding reception has come to an end, but before we can say goodnight before our newlyweds depart for their honeymoon, wanna have one last dance?", the DJ asked. 

"YEAH!", everyone cried out, and the DJ starts playing one last song for the evening, and everyone goes to the dance floor with their partners and start dancing to the music.

Jasper and Emma dance together, with Jessica and Scott, Nicole and Ben, Fay and Luke Nicholas and Marie and of course, Paige and Sky. As everyone dance together on the dance floor, amongst them all, Paige and Sky look at each other, before they share a kiss together, surrounded by their families and friends and wondering what's the next chapter in their lives.
