"Finn and I wanted to read our vows." Quinn stated, looking at Finn. "I'll go first."

Finn nodded and looked at Quinn.

Quinn stood up and took a deep breath as she looked at her phone. She held the mic back up to her mouth and exhaled slowly as she put her phone down.

"You were the first guy who ever told me I was beautiful, and maybe this is shallow, but that always meant a lot to me." Quinn began, looking at Finn. "Because not only do you always tell me I'm beautiful on the outside, but you bring out the beauty on the inside. And no matter what happened, you never thought I was ugly. You always loved me, and Beth, and I always loved you."

Finn nodded happily.

"And today, in front of everyone, I'm making that promise to keep loving you for the rest of my life. And I mean it." Quinn continued. "You've always treated me well, and you've always understood that Beth is my number one priority. When we got back together, I was scared of what might happen if I ruined things again, but you never blamed me or held anything against me, or against Beth."

Finn smiled.

"I promise to love you until the day I die. And I promise to learn from your examples of love, respect, and patience." Quinn went on. "You're my best friend, and I'm so happy to be your wife. I love you so much."

"I love you." Finn grinned as he stood up and kissed Quinn.

When they parted, Quinn handed Finn the microphone before taking her seat.

"Quinn." Finn said. "The day I met you, I remember thinking how beautiful you were, and you still are, but over the years I've gotten to see how beautiful you are on the inside, too."

Quinn smiled happily.

"I've seen it in the way you treat everybody else, whether it's coworkers, friends, family, and especially Beth." Finn noted. "She's lucky to have you as a mother, and I'm lucky to get to be a part of this family. And I promise to keep learning how to parent through your example, and to practice being smart and strong like you. I love you, Quinn. Thanks for marrying me."

Quinn laughed lightly. "Thanks for letting me and Beth move in."

Finn smirked as he handed the microphone off to Kurt and took his seat, putting his arm around Quinn.

After the Best Man and Maid of Honor speeches, Finn and Quinn shared their first dance. When the song ended, Quinn took her seat as Finn and Carole began their mother-son dance.

Quinn wiped tears from her eyes as Finn danced with Beth afterwards. She exhaled slowly through her mouth and clapped for them when the song ended.

Finn returned to Quinn and hugged her.

"You did such a good job." Quinn said softly as they parted.

"Thanks." Finn replied, pausing when he saw Quinn's tear-filled eyes. "You okay?"

"Yeah." Quinn nodded again. "Thank you."

Finn kissed Quinn before walking away.

The music soon began, and Burt asked Quinn to dance. The pair went to the dance floor together while Finn, Kurt, and Carole watched happily.

"I'm not a good dancer, but don't worry, Schuester's gonna cut in here at some point." Burt promised. "I just wanted to welcome you to the family officially."

"Thank you." Quinn smiled. "And thanks for this."

Burt looked at Quinn.

"For becoming a father figure to me." Quinn noted. "But especially to Finn and Beth."

"My pleasure, kiddo." Burt smiled as he handed Quinn off to Mr. Schue.
