Chapter 25: Dreary Moon

Renesmee POV:

I can't believe this is all real. This is by far the best day of my life. I am officially Mrs. Black, a name I was always meant to have. The ceremony is more beautiful than I ever thought it would be. And Jacob looked so handsome in his tuxedo and brand new haircut.

All of the guests went inside the mansion to get seated at their tables for the reception while Jake and I took photographs. This would look really nice in our house and in the scrapbook. I've never seen Jacob look so happy and I felt exactly how he feels. I'm ecstatic that we've made it this far, this strong. Thankfully, the picture taking didn't take to long and we we're able to join our guests for the reception.

"I feel so complete." Jake spoke softly as we walked together towards the mansion.

"You took the words right out of my mouth." I smiled at him.

I could smile all day I am so damn happy. Literally nothing could bring down what I feel right now. Jake opened the door and we were greeted with an applause from everyone.

"Please welcome Mr. and Mrs. Black!" the DJ said through the microphone.

It really looked beautiful in here. I'm pretty are Grandma Esme helped out Aunt Rosalie and Aunt Alice with decorating. I was really surprised how well all the colors worked together. Jacob led me to the dancefloor and a spotlight shined down on us. Everyone else gathered around to watch our first dance as a married couple. I knew that Jake wasn't that good a ballroom dancing, but I appreciated his effort when Aunt Alice tried to teach us. We'll just do our own thing for now.

I heard the intro to one of our favorite songs, 'Dreary Moon' by Big Black Delta and smiled as Jake pulled me close to him and grabbed my right hand. I placed my hand on his shoulder and swayed with him. We whispered sweet nothings to each other as we slow danced all around the dancefloor. I could be like this forever with him.

"A heavy burden, the holy way, I can escape anything but loving you always." he sang softly to me as I rested my head against his chest.

He knew what that did to me.

The song came to an end and Jake leaned down to kiss me. The guests applauded once again and they all joined us on the dancefloor when the DJ played a Kimbra song. Jacob's dance moves had me in tears, my poor husband has the weirdest dance moves. We danced with everybody. My favorite partner, second to Jacob, was little Colton. His best move was the sprinkler. Emily definitely chuckled at that. Jake and his brother's really surprised all of us with their dance routine to 'Panic Station' by Muse. It had myself along with the other imprints with red faces.

After a few songs, the DJ announced a father-daughter dance. I chose the perfect song for Dad and I. It was 'I Will Be There' by Odessa. I stood on Dad's feet and let him dance for us. I knew he would tear up if he could, Mom definitely was when we saw her. I will always be Daddy's little girl, no matter how old I get. I put my hand on Dad's cheek to show him my very first memories of him. How I loved the sound of his and Mom's voice, how his face was the first I saw, and all of the wonderful memories that only he gave me throughout my life.

"I love you, Renesmee Carlie." Dad choked out, "You're worth any trouble I've went through in this life."

"I love you too, Daddy." I teared up before hugging him.

"You'll always be my princess." Dad stroked my hair before handing me his handkerchief.

"Really Dad? You're an old geezer." I chuckled as I used it to wipe away some of my tears.

"It comes in handy, doesn't it?" he laughs with me.

I couldn't ask for a better dad than mine. Even if he's old fashioned and overprotective, he would do anything for me. A few more songs came on after and we all continued to get our boogie on. Eventually it was time to cut the cake. I told Jacob I didn't want to get my makeup ruined so he better not smear it all over my face. He knew better than to test me. Luckily for me, Jacob was on his best behavior. The cake wasn't too bad, I probably would've liked it better if Grandma Esme made it. Jake thought it was the best cake ever and had three slices.

After cake time I threw my bouquet and Leah caught it. Of course, her eyes flickered to Nahuel and he blushed a little. I'd love to attend that wedding. I swore I turned a darker shade of red than my mom ever did as a human when Jake removed my wedding garter. Jake's brothers howled when Embry caught the garter and all gave him slaps on the back.

Jacob POV:

May the girl Embry ends up with be blessed, he's a handful. The DJ called for a mother-son danced and I thought about my mother as how much I wanted her to be here. She really would've adored and loved Renesmee. Bella got me out of my trance by dragging me to the dancefloor.

"I'm your mother now, by law of course." she patted my shoulder.

The DJ turned on 'It's Real' by Real Estate and asked all the other mothers and sons to come dance. Bella started snapping her fingers and swayed, such a mom type of dance. I laughed before I started to do the running man, the extreme version of course. It was adorable watching Kim dance with Jared Jr. he had the widest toothless smile for her. Blake and Abe had a blast doing the popcorn dance with Becca, she'll be thankful when they fall asleep early.

I was happy that Bella volunteered to dance with me for the mother-son dance, she knew what it meant to me. I know Mom's spirit was here for me at my most important day. After the song was done, Renesmee and I listened to our guests give speeches.

I could hardly understand what Bella was saying because she was crying without tears. It was something along the lines of that she's happy for us and that Renesmee will always be her baby girl. Edward gave us his blessings and told me to take care of Nessie. My sisters sang us a song for us. Emmett made an eye-rolling wolf joke and made an inappropriate joke that caused Renesmee to choke on her champagne. The blonde one didn't look to happy about what he said when he came back to their table. My dad asked for grandchildren and told Renesmee that she makes me the happiest. In all, the speeches were touching and all the guests, except for the vampires and pregnant ladies, enjoyed their champagne.

Nessie and I made sure all of the guests had taxis to take them back to the hotel at the end of the night. Edward and Bella gave us both a hug goodbye and wished us to have a good time at our honeymoon. Alice told us that she'll take care of all of the wedding gifts to the relief of Nessie. We were now in a nice limo on the way to the airport to board our flight to Santa Monica. Renesmee changed into a nice cocktail dress beforehand and she wore the barette I made for her. She still looks stunning as ever. I interlocked my fingers with her' and kissed her hand while she looked up at me adoringly.

"We're married now, can you believe it?" she said with pure excitement, "Where do even begin with this new chapter in our lives?!"

"Let's start with forever." I smiled at her.

"Forever." she exhaled and returned my smile.

A/N: Next up is their honeymoon! I hope you all enjoyed the wedding and as promised I'll include the links to the songs and Nessie's cocktail dress.
