A New Beginning

Chapter Twenty Three

*Timehop - 6 months later, 8th June, Snow and David's wedding*

It's the day of Snow and David's wedding, again. The beach was transformed into a breathtaking scene for Snow White and David's wedding. Rows of chairs were set out on the sand, facing a beautiful arbor adorned with cascading flowers. The azure ocean and swaying palm trees formed a stunning backdrop for the intimate ceremony. Gentle waves lapped at the shore, adding a soothing soundtrack to the romantic scene. The sun hung low in the sky, casting a warm golden hue over the entire setting, bathing everyone in an intimate and magical light. It was a perfect day for a beach wedding, and the atmosphere was filled with anticipation and joy.

Snow stood in a makeshift dressing room, her nerves tinged with excitement. Regina and Emma were by her side, helping her prepare for the big moment. Soft melodies played in the background, creating an atmosphere of tranquility. Snow took a deep breath, her heart filled with anticipation as she looked at her reflection in the mirror. The sun streamed through the windows, casting a warm glow on the room, evoking the beauty of the day. Her gown was a masterpiece of lace and silk, and her bouquet of flowers was a lovely touch of color against the white fabric.

Snow's wedding dress was a vision of elegance and simplicity. It featured a delicate lace bodice that clung perfectly to her figure, with an off-the-shoulder neckline that flattered her toned shoulders. The full skirt flowed gracefully around her, its lightweight fabric making it perfect for the beach setting. Snow's hair was styled in loose waves, adorned with a stunning tiara decorated with sparkling crystals. Her makeup was understated, enhancing her natural beauty. She looked like a modern-day fairytale princess, ready to greet her charming prince at the alter.

"Oh wow! You look so beautiful Mum" Emma's eyes filling up with tears

"You do look stunning" Regina rubs her arm, feeling so happy for her

Snow turned to face Emma and Regina, her eyes welling up with emotion as she took in their heartfelt words. She reached out to take their hands in hers, tears of happiness streaming down her cheeks. "Thank you both," she whispered, her voice cracking slightly. Snow couldn't believe how lucky she was to have such incredible women in her life who had supported her every step of the way. Their presence at her side on this special day made the moment feel even more magical.

"At least this time, the evil queen won't ruin your day" Emma joked then looks at Regina

Snow let out a soft laugh as Emma's joke broke the tension, and Regina playfully rolled her eyes.

 "Indeed," Regina chuckled. "But I can safely say that no evil queen will be showing up to ruin today's celebration. This day is all about love, happiness, and unity." Snow nodded in agreement, her heart swelling with gratitude for both of them.

Grumpy walked into the room, his eyes widening at the sight of Snow standing there in her wedding dress. He felt a mix of pride and disbelief as he took in the transformation. "You look like a real princess, Snow," he admitted with a nod of approval, offering her his trembling arm to guide her down the aisle.

Snow's face lit up with gratitude, her eyes glimmering with joy. "Thank you, Grumpy. That means a lot coming from you," she said, her voice filled with sincerity. She took his arm, her hand feeling the slight tremble in his grip.

"Are we ready?" Regina grinned, happily as she walks with Emma, hearing the music start

"Absolutely," Snow and Grumpy replied together, a shared determination in their voices. As the music filled the air, Grumpy took a deep breath and guided Snow towards the ceremony area, their hearts pounding with anticipation.
