The day had finally arrived. The air buzzed with excitement, and the wedding hall was filled with warmth, love, and the scent of fresh flowers. Guests, family, and friends gathered to celebrate the union of Ryuji and Ayumi. The hall was elegantly decorated with cascading white drapes, twinkling lights, and flowers in soft shades of pink and ivory. It was a sight straight out of a fairy tale, the atmosphere joyful and electric.

Dai and Shun stood near the entrance, greeting guests with smiles as they poured in, everyone looking their best for the big day. Dai, dressed in a sharp navy suit, exuded charm and confidence, while Shun looked effortlessly stunning in the suit Dai had chosen for him earlier.

As the couple welcomed their guests, Hana walked in with her boyfriend by her side. She looked radiant, and it was clear she was truly happy. She approached Dai and Shun with a beaming smile.

"Dai, Shun, I’d like you to meet my boyfriend, Yuto," she said, proudly introducing the tall, handsome man beside her. Yuto greeted them warmly, shaking hands with Dai and Shun.

"It's so nice to finally meet you!" Shun said with genuine warmth. "Hana has told us a lot about you."

Yuto smiled, wrapping his arm around Hana's waist. "Likewise, I’ve heard a lot about you two as well. I’m happy to be here today."

Dai gave Hana an approving look, and they exchanged a knowing smile. “We’re really happy for you, Hana,” Dai said. "You deserve this happiness."

Hana’s eyes twinkled with gratitude. “Thank you, Dai. It means a lot to me.”

The hall was soon buzzing with chatter as guests found their seats, admiring the beautiful décor. Yumi, dressed in a vibrant red gown with intricate gold embroidery, looked absolutely gorgeous. The dress hugged her figure perfectly, and her hair was styled in soft waves that framed her face. Kenji, who had been quiet for a moment, couldn’t take his eyes off her.

As the ceremony was about to begin, Dai took on the role of the MC with pride. He stood confidently at the front, microphone in hand, as the crowd fell into an expectant hush.

"Ladies and gentlemen," Dai’s voice echoed warmly through the hall, "it is my great pleasure to welcome you all here today to celebrate the wedding of my brother, Ryuji, and his beautiful bride, Ayumi."

A murmur of excitement rippled through the crowd as they turned their attention to Ryuji, who stood at the altar, waiting for his bride. He was dressed in a tailored black suit that fit him like a glove, his hair styled back, making him look every bit the handsome and proud groom. He stood tall, his eyes full of anticipation and love.

“And now, let’s welcome the groom to the aisle,” Dai announced with a smile.

Ryuji walked to the altar, his heart racing with a mix of excitement and nerves. He looked around at the familiar faces of friends and family, but his eyes were only searching for one person—Ayumi.

A soft melody began to play, and all heads turned as Ayumi appeared at the entrance of the hall, looking like an absolute vision. Her wedding dress was ethereal—an off-shoulder gown in white satin, with lace appliqués that flowed down the skirt in intricate patterns. A veil of soft tulle draped delicately over her hair, and her bouquet of pale pink roses added a romantic touch to her ensemble. She moved gracefully down the aisle, her face radiant, her eyes locked on Ryuji.

Ryuji’s breath caught in his throat as he saw her. For a moment, he couldn’t believe that this stunning woman, the love of his life, was walking toward him. His eyes welled up with emotion as Ayumi got closer, her own eyes shimmering with tears of joy.

When she reached the altar, Ryuji took her hand, his voice barely a whisper. "You look… incredible."

Ayumi blushed, her smile bright and full of love. "So do you," she whispered back.
