It Gets Better! (Book 3)

Chapter 33: The Wedding Part 2

*Acacia's POV*

"Its time Acacia."

I looked down at my hands and noticed how much they were shaking from the nerves. I took a deep breath in and let it out slowly. I took the first few steps and saw all the girls outside waiting on both sides. The camera man was at the end of the walkway looking through the camera. My mom took my arm and linked it with hers. We walked down and I couldn't help but get teary-eyed. I smiled at the ground and watched as the camera man followed us to the car. It took three people to push me in the back of the limo. Once I was in everyone else gathered in. The smile on my face never disappearing. I took out my phone and opened the video recorder.

"Hi Tay! I can't believe I'm on my way to the church. I've been waiting for this day forever and it's finally here! I hope whenever you see this it brings a smile to your face. I want to say I love you  more than words can describe and I can't wait to see you at the end of the alter. Love you!" I said into the phone and ending it with myself blowing a kiss to it.

I stopped recording and looked around. Everyone was laughing and talking to each other. I couldn't be more proud how things were turning out to be. I grabbed my mom's hands and squeezed it. She turned to me and kissed my cheek. I saw the church approaching and I knew it was time to say 'I do.' I waited for the limo to stop and I waited until everyone else was out before I got out with help from a few others. Once I was out and standing on the ground again I looked around and saw the guys' limo. I knew right behind the second set of doors Taylor was waiting at the end of the aisle nervous. 

"Okay lets go over everything for the last time before anything happens." said the wedding planner.

When she finished talking it was time to walk into the church. I waiting in the back until all the bridesmaids and groomsmen were paired with their partners and ready to go. Everyone looked back at me and I nodded. That's when the music started playing and one by one the pairs were disappearing through the doors. I closed my eyes and tried to ignore the butterflies in my stomach. That's when I exhaled a deep breath and began stepping closer to the door. 3 steps left. 2 steps left. 1 step left and I looked up.

*Taylor's POV*

l looked around at everyone and watched as they all gathered around the door leaving the house one by one. I shrugged my shoulders and made my way out the door. The camera man was holding the camera a few steps ahead of me. I looked in the camera and stuck my tongue out and closed my eyes before laughing and hopping into the limo. Acacia and I made a deal to make a quick video to the other while we were on our way to the church.

"Hey Babe! I thought since we just got into the car that it would be a great time to make the video. So here I am! I'm on my way to the church and I'm pretty nervous not going to lie. I bet you look amazing in your dress and I can't wait to see if I'm right. I can't wait to be able to kiss you at the end of this and have you be named Mrs. Taylor Caniff. I'll see you soon. I Love You Princess."

I saved the video and turned it off. All the guys were talking about who they wanted to get with. I joined in the laughs and tried to ignore the tingles in my fingers and the rest of my body. We were approaching the church soon and I knew this was the best time to do this.

"Hey! Be quiet real quick!" I yelled.

The limo fell silent and all heads turned to face me.

"I just want to tell you all thank you for being here with me and getting me through this day. I love you guys."

"We love you too Taylor!" The guys yelled back.

That's when the limo stopped and the driver turned back and said we were at our destination. I looked at everyone and then opened the door. I waited for the guys to get out and listened to the party planner who was going over everything last minute. She was fixing people's hair, ties, and suits. She got to me and whispered congratulations. I thanked her and walked into the church. Everything looked better than when we did the test walk. The seats were filled of all the guest and not one was open. I nodded my head as I passed them. I looked up and saw the priest was at the end waiting for me to take my spot. 

"Okay! THE GIRLS HAVE ARRIVED AND WE'LL BE STARTING IN FIVE!" The party planner yelled.

I was shaking a bit knowing she was going to be walking through those doors any minute now. And almost as they read my mind the music started playing and everyone stood up. They turned to face the bridesmaids and groomsmen walk in and Skylynn throwing the petals on the floor. And before I knew it and as if it couldn't come any sooner, the traditional wife-to-be song started playing. I quickly shook my head and looked up. I saw the shadow of my princess and watched as she turned through the doors. She was beyond beautiful walking in her white dress. I couldn't hold it in the tears rushed down my face as she got closer. I wiped the tears away as she approached and took my hands into hers.

"You may all be seated." The priest said as he handed me some tissue.

I wiped the remaining tears and gave the priest the tissue back he discarded it and began. I didn't listen because I was fixated on Acacia and how beautiful she looked. I saw the tears in her eyes and the smile on her face. I repeated the vows and listened to her as she repeated hers. I squeezed her hands once they were over. I remember slipping the ring on her finger and watched as she did the same thing to mine. I looked into her eyes and listened closely to the next words out of the priest's mouth.

"I now pronounce you man and wife. You may kiss your bride."

I let go of her hands and squeezed her cheeks as we leaned into each other. Our lips touch and it felt more powerful than our first kiss. And though it lasted about fifteen seconds it felt like an eternity. When I pulled away I heard all the claps and looked at my beautiful bride smiling back at me. I wiped her tear away with my thumb. I grabbed her hand and we turned to face everyone.

"Mr. and Mrs. Taylor Caniff!"

Cheers were coming from all of our friends and family members. We began walking down the aisle towards the door. Once we reached it I pulled Acacia close to me and kissed her again.

"I love you Mrs. Caniff."

"I love you Mr. Caniff."
