"YOU MAY NOW KISS THE BRIDE," Oscar tried to shout over the group of people in the rows already roaring as Pedro dipped Athena to kiss her. The now husband and wife duo couldn't help but smile at the noise amidst the kiss.
The two wanted a small wedding without much chaos. However, with Athena's many friends who demanded to be invited and Pedro's 40+ family members, it was impossible to narrow the group down to 20.
Oscar of course officiated, as neither Athena or Pedro were very religious. It also meant a lot to them that the person who introduced them would be the one tying them together for life.
As they walked down the aisle, they looked into the mass of people who supported them. Pedro's family and Athena's friends all gathered in one place. The people they each care about the most.
Pedro squeezed his new wife's hand as they walked back into Pedro's house. They decided to get married in the backyard of his house in Chile. Pedro was on the fence about buying it a couple months ago, but Athena convinced him it would be a perfect wedding venue.
Ironically, Pedro had bought her a ring the week before. He decided that exact moment, sitting in Athena's kitchen in New York, would be a good time to propose.
Athena and Pedro began changing into their after party outfits with extreme excitement bubbling inside them,
"I can't believe we're finally married," she squealed as Pedro helped unbutton her dress.
"I know. I'm kind of regretting it," he joked, to which Athena reacted by jabbing her elbow into his stomach.
"I'm kidding!" He exclaimed.
"I know. You could never regret marrying someone who is way out of your league."
"Whatever," he said as he watched her slip into her new dress. Short with long puffy sleeves. She looked just as beautiful as when she was wearing her ceremony dress.
"You ready to go mingle for hours on end?" He laughed.
"With the group we have out there? We're gonna party our fucking asses off."
As soon as the couple reappeared into the backyard, lit up by fairy lights and lanterns, the crowd cheered with excitement.
Everyone was already a little too drunk, except for the married couple. They decided to stay sober, as they wanted to remember this day for the rest of their lives.
Pedro was going around and giving his family hugs, all of whom were praising him for nabbing a girl as bright and beautiful as Athena.
Athena was going and celebrating with her friends, whom were ecstatic she finally found someone to make her believe in love.
The drinks kept flowing even until dinner, where the entire meal was filled with people giving endless speeches about the bride and groom. Abba music played faintly in the background.
All of Pedro's siblings gave hilarious yet heartwarming speeches. Oscar pretty much sobbed through his whole speech. Sarah Paulson through many jabs at Pedro. Andrew Garfield, Sebastian Stan, and Chris Evans teamed up to tell horrifyingly embarrassing stories about Athena. Bella Ramsey made a threat for a new sister. Taylor's made everyone cry.
It was better than the two could have imagined. They were surrounded by so much love and happiness. It felt as if nothing else mattered. Everyone jumped in the pool when 'Take a Chance on Me' blasted from the speakers. Pedro had no shirt under his suit by the end of the night.
Even though they were already at their home, Pedro and Athena both wanted to do the classic "driving away sequence" they always saw in weddings in movies. The guests lined up to bid farewell to them as they walked to the vintage convertible.
Sparklers were lit as the couple hugged and kissed goodbye to everyone. Pedro once again dipped Athena before they packed into the car, unsure where they were actually going to drive to.
"Where do you think we'll end up tonight?" Pedro asked as they drove down the hill away their home.
"Not sure. Don't really care."
Pedro smiled and kissed his now-wife's hand, "I love you, mi esposa."
"I love you more," she smiled, resting her head on his shoulder as he drove under the star lit sky.
They just knew wherever they ended up that night, they were happy they were together.
