Part 25 - Right where we belong

Everything was set and ready to go, the wedding being held in Agoura Hills, California; a place called Lobo Castle.  Stevie wanted something elegant and classy, just like her, Lindsey not denying that she was the best at putting together events. She had chosen the royal treatment package, the wedding being held in the back yard of the castle where there was a waterfall and it would be hard for bystanders to snap photos. There was a large rock wall that was tall enough to keep out anyone that was not invited, the press already knowing bits and pieces, so everyone was interested.

There were long lights hanging from the trees, the chairs covered in beautiful black/red silk ribbon, candles making a path down the isle. It was beautiful, absolutely dreamy and romantic, just like the two lovers about to be wed.

Stevie was cooped up in the many rooms of the castle, indulging in the beautiful interior as she continuously looked herself over in the mirror. The makeup she requested was to give her a smokey eye, brown and black shadow with fake eyelashes. Stevie's lips were outlined in a dark red as her lips were a bright red, giving her a sexy pout, knowing Lindsey preferred that color on her. He is going to die,  she thought to herself, playing with her long wavy hair that was covered in tiny jewels with a crescent moon clip holding back her bangs. A large smile spread across her face. She was gorgeous, even causing her own self to be taken by her own appearance.

Fiddling with the blue sapphire around her neck that was once owned by Barbara Nicks, Stevie had only moments before taken from her room and out the back doors of the castle, closing her eyes and talking to her mother. She chose the sapphire necklace as part of her accessories, wanting her mother somehow there, even if she wasn't.

"Mom, I miss you so much," fingering the jewel, "...I can't believe that this day has finally come. I hope you are proud of me, I hope you are happy for me, but I know you are," looking up at the ceiling. "You loved Lindsey and you had considered us married before but now it's actually happening, can you believe it? I'm marrying him after all of these years and I wish you could be here. Please know that you and dad are with me wherever I go and daddy, I wish you were here to walk me down the isle, " doing her best to bite back the tears, "...I hope you don't mind that I asked Mick, being that he's one of my longest and dearest male friends, but there's no one else that I would rather have walk me down to Lindsey other than you," giving the sapphire a kiss, "...I love you both."

The knock on her door finally came, Karen escorting her down as she helped place her long bejeweled  veil on her head, carefully lifting up the trein of her dress to keep her from tripping down the stairs. She was perfection  with her long diamond chandelier earrings, literally glowing.

"Wow,"  Mick complimented as he got himself in to place, looking Stevie up and down as the puffy white - almost ball gown -esque dress complimented her curves! The corset part covered in tiny white diamonds. "Lindsey is one lucky man," giving Stevie a small peck on the cheek, not wanting to ruin her make up. "I'm so happy for you, Stephanie, we are ready to celebrate this with you," taking one of her hands as Karen handed her the bouquet in the other. The flowers she chose were lilies, a long black and red ribbon trailing down the stems.

LeeLee and Stella had matching dresses, the colors that Stevie and Lindsey chose were black and red, their dresses covered in see through black lace as the red silk beamed from underneath. The sashes around their waist tied around the back in to a beautiful red bow and they also adorned a crescent  moon clip in their hair. They had their hair pinned up and trickling down in waves, both beautiful little angels, Lindsey in tears over how precious they looked.

It had been hard for Stevie to pick her bridesmaids, as Lori normally would have been one but there was no way that she would allow it now, only having her as a guest. She chose Sharon, Christine, and Sheryl Crow to be the maids and their dresses were made of long black flowing chiffon, black and red ribbon tied around their waists.
