Rivals (A Jelsa Story)

Chapter 50 - An Everlasting Vow

A/N: Picture is from Frozen II. This is Elsa's wedding dress.

Elsa's POV

Rapunzel and Flynn got married in the spring. Anna and Kristoff tied the knot in the summer. Hiccup and Astrid had their wedding in the fall.

Now it was winter, and I was about to marry the love of my life, Jack Frost.

We decided to hold the ceremony on December 21st, the winter solstice. Coincidentally, it was both Jack's and my favorite holiday. We were going to have it in a cute little chapel in Pixie Hollow, with the reception at a venue that Merida's parents owned. And since we also shared the same favorite color, our dress code was "blue encouraged."

We had a pretty sizable bridal party. Anna was my matron-of-honor with Rapunzel, Merida, Astrid, Tooth, and Mary as my bridesmaids. Bunny was Jack's best man, and Sandy, Hiccup, Flynn, Kristoff, and Jamie were his groomsmen. I'd asked my figure skating team to be my honorary bridesmaids, so Jack had his hockey teammates as his honorary groomsmen. Sophie Bennett and Ariel's daughter Melody were our flower girls; Merida's brothers were our ring bearers. My ladies all wore silver blue dresses – the bridesmaids had strapless gowns, and my flower girls had cute sleeveless cupcake dresses with white sashes. Jack had asked everyone on his side to wear black suits with white shirts and silver ties.

All of the debutantes came to the wedding. Tiana and Snow White offered to cater as their wedding gifts. I was thrilled – they had both opened successful establishments, and their food was great. We also invited all the administrators from Disney and DreamWorks who had been a part of restarting the Touchstone Games, since without them this wedding wouldn't be happening. They all came as well. Jack asked Mr. North if he would officiate the wedding, and he said yes.

My parents, my aunt and uncle, and Merida's parents (who were pretty much like another set of parents to me) were all in attendance. Emma came with her parents, whose house I later learned was the one Jack had been staying in when his parents separated.

His dad came too. Jack had gone back and forth about it but had finally decided to invite him.

I got ready at my house with my bridesmaids, which wasn't too far away from the chapel. Anna, Rapunzel, and my mother all fussed over me to no end while Papa stood in the corner trying to pretend he wasn't crying.

"Time check, thirty minutes," Merida said, looking at the clock. "We should get moving soon."

"Yes, yes, of course." Mama smoothed my hair once more. "Oh, darling. Jente meg, getting married!"

"Hun er en kvinne nå," Papa said, smiling proudly. "Ikke en jente."

"Yeah, Mama," I said. "You said so yourself."

Mama shook her head. "You'll always be my little girl."

"Well, let's go!" Anna jumped up. "Your knight in shining armor awaits, my queen!"

I laughed and stood. Mama and Papa took my hands, and the rest of my bridesmaids followed us out of the house and into the limo that was waiting to take us to the chapel.

When we arrived, we all got out and stood on the front steps, adjusting our clothes. Papa opened the door and gave a thumbs-up to North, who motioned for the pianist to start playing. The flower girls and ring bearers walked down the aisle, followed by my bridesmaids.

Mama and Papa moved so they were standing on either side of me. Papa took my hand and squeezed it, his eyes shining. "I love you, snowflake."

I smiled at him. "I love you too."

Everyone stood as we entered the chapel. My eyes immediately went to Jack, who was standing up at the altar, beaming. He wore a silver suit with a white shirt and a royal blue tie and pocket square. His hair was messy, just the way I liked it. As he smiled at me, a tear slipped down his cheek. It took everything in me not to start bawling right then and there.

We finally reached the end of the aisle. Mama and Papa both gave me a hug and a kiss on the cheek and then sat down. I turned so I was standing across from Jack.

North smiled at both of us before clearing his throat and turning to the room. "Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today..."

Jack reached over and took my hand. I gave it a squeeze. Throughout North's opening speech, we just gazed into each others' eyes like we were teenagers in love again.

"Do you, Elsa Reina Winters, take Jack Frost as your lawfully wedded husband?"

"I do."

"And do you, Jack Frost, take Elsa Reina Winters as your lawfully wedded wife?"

Jack smiled and nodded. "I do."

We picked up our rings – simple silver bands – and slipped them on each others' fingers.

"I now pronounce you husband and wife! You may kiss the bride."

Jack tucked my hair behind my ear and kissed me.

Everyone stood and clapped. Jack winked at me and grabbed my hand, and we ran down the aisle.

We stood at the entrance to the venue, holding hands. Jack was looking at me like he was the luckiest man in the world.

"You're radiant," he breathed.

"And you're breathtaking." I ran my hand over his lapel. "I love this suit. You look stunning."

He chuckled. "I'm glad. I think so too."

I grinned. "Ready for our first dinner as a married couple?"

"More than you know." He leaned forward so his forehead was resting on mine. "And then a whole week in Arendelle."

I hummed in agreement.

"Jeg elsker deg."

"Jeg elsker deg."

Anna opened the door and grinned at us. "We're ready for you now, lovebirds."

Jack and I smiled at each other.

"And now presenting, for the first time, Mr. and Mrs. Winters-Frost!"

THE END.
