My mom and dad along with the family have been helping me get everything ready, for my wedding, it's a lot of work and time consuming, luckily Franco came and brought Amelia, Letty and Pedro my second parents, Letty helped me by going with my mom and choosing the flowers for the church and reception, also the reception hall, both my mothers Letty and my mom Mariana were my wedding planners, the reception hall was next to the ocean, they both knew me too well, this time the dress would be beautiful and Amelia and mom would do my hair and make-up ,Alonzo and I asked Mario and Malena to be our best man and maid of honor.

I asked Darlene, Iris and Amelia to be my bridesmaids, their partners were of course would be John and Fernando and Franco, I didn't want to many people just family..

Amelia was a bit shy to be the maid of honor because she is pregnant, Franco told Alonzo if anything happens to my sister even a scratch I wont hesitate to use the shot gun, Alonzo responded "I will load it for you".

And now we are picking up my wedding dress, Amelia has a bit of a belly, they are now having a baby number 2, Jason is about to be 2 years old and their first born. 

 Our wedding day  has arrived June 9. 2023, I have been so nervous I couldn't sleep all night, then woken up early morning 7am, by Amelia to shower up and change go downstairs get some breakfast and come back up to my room to get my make-up and hair done by Letty, get dressed our wedding is to be at 12 noon. I was so nervous while Amelia was waiting for my make-up lady. I was sweating a bit to much, Amelia had to call my mom to calm my nerves down. for some reason I had a flash back to our first wedding, it was embarrassing and a painful day.

Mom came in and calmly talked to me. She said it was going to be a beautiful day and that Alonzo was not that evil vile man anymore, told me how he almost died twice to save me, how he took those bullets for me, and even put his mother in prison for what she did against me. Moms words that calmed me the most were.

'HONEY ALONZO LOVES YOU SO ARDENTLY HE WOULD DIE FOR YOU AGAIN"

Rosalina came looks at me and says - hey Deja-vu, I look at her and say just no ugly dress or street flowers, she remembers, she looks sad, but I look at her and say hey, it was a test wedding Rosalina, replies, you sure know how to make a negative into a positive funny one. (Rosalina did her make up in her first wedding)..

I finally calmed down and relaxed especially with the tea my mom brought me, I was finally ready by 11:45,I had a silk dress simple with sleeves down to my elbows but elegant make up,

long curled hair, With a wreath make of baby breath flowers on top of my head over my veil. my dad and Franco came and looked at me, both said in Unisom, Mama you look so beautiful, my dad had tears in his eyes, Franco came over and hugged me, kissed me on my temple, then said I love you baby sister you make a beautiful Bride, he smiled and looked at our moms, right mom both Letty and mom said yes in unison.

It dawned on me that now not only I, but Franco was calling Letty mom. My mom looked at both of us and smiled said "Letty we sure do make beautiful babies", Letty replied yes we do.

My dad pops his dad out the door and says honey it's time, I walk towards him, he gives me his elbow and I put my hand through it, we walk to the church entry, the doors open and the music starts to play. I look at my dad and he smiles, says I love you my baby girl, I love you too dad. I look straight ahead and I see Alonzo with a huge smile, his is wearing, white dress shirt, light blue tie, black jacket and slacks, looking really dashing, then I see Franco he is looking at me smiling,  he is also looking at  Amelia, my dad gives my hand to Alonzo and says, I hand over my daughter, but this time in front of the church and everyone, I need your promise that you will take care of my baby girl. NEVER lay a hand on her and give her nothing but love. Alonzo responds, I promise to always lover her and treasure her and never put a hand on her, my dad shook his head and gave my hand  to Alonzo and we walked up to the priest.

We gave our vowels, exchanged rings and we walked out of the church, Alonzo would not let go of my hand, we need to go take our photos, but this time it will be at the beach, before, we leave, I throw my bouquet and who catches it? Ha ha ha, Malena, I look to see a surprise look on my moms face her expression mouth open, big wide eyes, not to mention Mario's.

Alonzo and I looked at each other and started laughing, my dad just smiled looked down and said oh boy. 2 Rugetti's. Mr. Rugetti said YESSSS to daughters, will have plenty of grandchildren.

My face paled at the mention of kids, but in a good way. I was ready to be a mother and Alonzo was specially happy, he will now have people that, not only love him, but show him love. I would make sure of that, he almost died twice to pay for his wrong doing towards me, I forgave him and learned to love him. Our reception was held at the beach in the Hamptons.

We danced our first dance, Alonzo held me close, our song was, My Confession, by Josh Groban. Alonzo, kept kissing me on my forehead and telling me how much he loved me. After the reception, Alonzo and I boarded my dads jet and headed to Hawaii, the 11 hour flight oh boy, cant wait to get there, the start of our new life, but this time we start with love not lies.

I look at him and tell him, I love you baby, he looks at me kisses me passionately and says I love you more!
