Chapter 10: The Newlyweds

After the wedding and the photoshoot is the reception. Fatima changes her hair and outfit.

The DJ introduces the new couple. "May I please have your attention as we welcome the newlyweds, Mr. and Mrs. Zachary Taylor!

Zac and Fatima came out dancing to Beyoncé's Crazy in Love". They had learned a cute dance moves together. Everyone was laughing and cheering them on.

After they finished their dance, they went to sit at the table for the bride and groom. Everyone eats and toasts the couple.

Andi's toast: To the bride and groom, #couplegoals. Sis, we have been friends since our college years, which seems like forever. I was so excited to help you plan the wedding, I hope it turned out just the way you dreamed. You know I love you and have always looked up to you. I'm also going to stop with the mushy stuff before I start crying (everyone laughs). To my new brother, I love you too. Make sure you take care of my friend because she will tell me every time, you're in the doghouse, lol. Oh, I will try not to be at your house every day hogging your wife and eating up all your food.

"Oh, Lord. Am I going to have to kick you and Lori out?" asked Zac jokingly.

"Maybe a few times," Andi responded.

Madam's toast: I'm going to make this quick. I'm Fatima's cousin for those who don't know me. I just want to say congratulations to you two. I love you, T. To Zac, I hope you can handle these five strong, outspoken women right here (pointing to Lori, Andi, Madea, Hattie, and herself) because we ride hard for T. But for real, we won't be too hard on you because you are family now. Love you big Z. Congratulations!

Lonzo's toast: Hey everyone, I'm Zac's big, little bro. I just want to say congrats bro. She seems like a good one, so don't mess it up. I'm proud of you. Fatima, you got you a good one too though. I'm not saying that because he's my big brother, but he is someone I look up to and hope to be like when I grow up, lol. You're in good hands. Welcome to the Taylor Family.

"Thank you," Fatima said.

Tony's toast: I'm one of Zac's best friends. I've known him at least since toddler age. Nate, him, and I went from playing in the mud together, skipping class together, seeing how many phone numbers we could get, to which girls we going to ghost that night. Oh, and don't forget the clubbing days, but I ain't gone say too much more brother, I might get you in trouble. Now you have outgrown us all and become the man that we see in front of us today. Congratulations.

Zac gets up to hug Tony. He knows this is hard for him and Nate, but it's time for them to grow up. They had an issue when they finished high school and he started hanging out more with his cousin, when he moved to Atlanta, they had an issue. Now they have an issue with him getting married. They thought they were the three musketeers and would do everything together, but Zac always had other plans. Although they are his boys, they are moving on different paths in life, and it's time to move on.

Afterward, they all danced and partied the night away until it was time for the bouquet toss and the garter toss.

All the single ladies, which included everyone but Mrs. Taylor, stood ready to catch the bouquet. Andi, Lori, and Kizzy were in the front about to fight each other for it, while Madam, Madea, and Hattie were in the back pretending they didn't want it. Fatima's coworkers and Pam joined them.

"Are y'all ready?" Asked Fatima as the song "Single Ladies" played in the background. "1...2...3," she throws the bouquet.

Aunt Hattie caught it.

Madea looked at her and asked, "What you gone do ware gone that?

"Marry your man," said Aunt Hattie with a straight face and they all started laughing.
