I feel like this mirror is not doing me justice, I look ravishing, I look amazing. I am wearing a wavy updo hairstyle, a pair of Steve Madden sandalled stiletto, with diamante encrusted along every strap. I have a gorgeous mermaid dress which was designed by my mothers together with some young designer whose dresses are normally found at YDE, and this was her first wedding dress, but she knocked it out the park. My make up was nude but full glam, I had a diamond necklace that I got from my mother in law, along with matching earrings. Another accessory that I was wearing was a tiara that was meant to hold my veil which was crisp white with a sparkly hem, very long, it actually made my train because my dress did not have one. I felt exquisite, therefore I was exquisite. I was busy admiring myself in the mirror when Phila and his minions walked in, I am joking, Phila, Siphephelo and Sanele. Phila stood behind me and rested his hands on my shoulders.
Phila: You know you can still stop this right? You can just run, we will take you to JHB with us and we will take care of you. You will be a kid again and date a kid that you want to date, just live your own life, the way you want to.
Me: Bhuti, I love him and as unconventional as our relationship/marriage is, I still love him and I want to be with him. I dont want to run.
Sanele: Are you sure? They car is ready to take you away.
Dad: Trying to get her to run away I see
Siphephelo: No we are just trying to make sure that she is not making a mistake, last thing we want is for her to have regrets 5 years down the line and there is no going back.
Me: What is the time? You guys know I hate being late.
Dad: It is time for me to walk my princess down the aisle, lets get going.
We made our way out to the car, the same Maserati I arrived at my Matric Ball in. Uncle Mpilo was driving, with mom sitting next to him, me and dad in the back. Uncle Mpilo is my moms older brother, he has numerous farms around the country, hotels, restaurants and construction firms. He is a qualified civil engineer, he worked for a construction firm for a few years then started his own hustle in the form of a construction firm, years later, he is a mogul. A single mogul, no wife no children nothing, just us. Anyways, we drove off to the Boutique Hotel where the whole affair is set to take place.
I forgot to mention, we managed to get the dads to buy us that apartment we wanted in Morningside, but it was not available immediately, it was only available end of June, so we decided to live in a commune closer to campus right after the wedding then move into our apartment as soon as it is available. We will be moving into the commune on Monday after our classes. Look at me babbling on about our living arrangements, so we finally arrived at the Hotel and parked close to the garden. Dad lead me towards the beautifully decorated Chapel in the garden, where everyone was gathered looking gorgeous in shades of white, champagne here and there but mostly white, after admiring everyone else, I turned to look at my gorgeous fiancé. He looked amazing in his off white suit, crisp white shirt and black suede loafers. His brother Brian was standing there next to him in an off white suit. I also only had one bridesmaid who also happens to be my sister in law Blake, she was in a long a-line white dress with white lace sleeves. We proceeded to walk towards the alter where Smith was looking straight at me, and he was now in tears and his face red. When we finally reached the alter, he walked to us and shook hands with dad, then walked me to where he was standing in front of the priest. The matrimonial went on with no glitches and no nasty surprises, then we went around the garden taking endless pictures until Smith and I were tired so we just walked to the reception marquee which was also in the garden, but on the far end. When we stepped in, everybody stood up and they cheered for us whilst throwing white rose petals at us. We made our way to our table with soft music playing. Starters were served and some speeches were said. The time came for me to let go of my beautiful bouquet. So Smith stood up and put his hand out for me to take it and stand up and walk towards the dance floor. When we got there, all the single ladies were gathered a short distance away from us, I threw the bouquet and a lady I didnt know caught it, then he went to get a chair. He came back and sat me down on it and went under my dress head first. He took the garter out using his teeth, then stood up and got ready to toss it to the bachelors that were lined up in front of us. He stood there looking at me with his back to the gents, he blew me a kiss then tossed the garter. My brother Phila caught it, the womanizer who always preached about dying single because he hates labels, marriage being the worst one. After the throwing of the bouquet and garter, we cut the cake and then dessert was serve. It was after dessert that Sanele, took to the dance floor and took the microphone. He took it upon himself to be the one who does the toast and so everyone just let it happen, but I know my brother has no filter so I didnt understand why dad allowed it to happen. After a long couple of minutes of listening to him talk about anything and everything, he then he wore a serious look on his face, he wished Smith and I a very blessed marriage and then asked everyone to raise their glasses and toasted to our new beginnings.

Smith and I spent the night at the hotel last night and no we didnt get down and dirty, but we enjoyed our wedding night. We have just woken up, I am still in my husbands arms and I am enjoying it.
Bradley: Good morning my wife.
He said placing a soft peck on my forehead, I turned to look at him whilst bringing my upper body up and propping it with my right elbow and look into his beautiful eyes.
Me: Good morning my husband, how are you this beautiful morning.
He gave me his hot panty dropping smile.
Bradley: I am at my happiest with my beautiful wife in my arms, I am beyond ecstatic. How are you my Starr?
Me: You stole my answer, I am also very happy to have woken up in your arms, MY HUSBAND.
He grabbed me and laid me on top of him then rested his hands on my bum, then he captured my lips with his. I love this man and as unconventional as our marriage is, but one thing is for sure, there is a lot of love here. We both pulled out and we just stared in each others eyes.
Bradley: What do you say we order some breakfast then we go home to open our wedding gifts.
I jumped up and off the bed as soon as he said the word open. I love opening gifts, I love gifts in general. I went to the bathroom while he ordered our breakfast, when he was done he joined me in the tub, we laid there for about 20 minutes then we quickly got out and took a shower being mindful that the food would be here shortly. As soon as we got out of the bathroom, we heard the door bell sound.
