Finally, the wedding day arrived and we were married at "Graceland" chapel in Vegas. That was a great dream came true for Jon, as his idol, Elvis, had married in Vegas too.
On that day, when we approached the limo that was going to take us to the  small chapel, and before we get our clothes for the ceremony, I ran to Jon's arms, who was waiting for me  with outstretched arms and a big sweet smile on his face. Once wrapped in his arms,  tears of joy were streaming down my face. I looked into his eyes,deeply to let him know how much in love I was  with him  , he kept smiling at me. His smile was so splendid, so perfect and  he had a special  twinkle in his blue eyes, a vivid glow that I had never  seen in him before.

"I love you, babe. Today, I will become your wife and I will be the luckiest woman on this planet "'I said through tears.
"And  I love you more  princess" he said trying to contain his tears.


He did not get off me, he was holding me so tight and staring at me inside my eyes, stroked my cheek and kissed my lips.
Then, his manager pushed us to speed things up  and told us it was just the right time to go . The wedding ceremony had been scheduled in just one hour. Carol, Jon's mother, helped me out  put on my wedding dress.

I checked the time , it was almost time to both of us get married, and my heart was beating fast. Minutes later,I was there holding my dad's arm.The wedding march started , and I realized after walking a few steps further  holding  my dad's arm that the one  who was sitting at the piano was Sir Elton John. He was a close friend of the band. Tears filled my eyes  and I started to shake like a leaf uncontrollably, as if the flower bouquet   would fall out of  my hand. While still holding my dad, Gabriel Dylan, I could  see Jon in his white shirt and black  Tuxedo . He gave me chills.  Tears did not stop up coming one after the other , and  this time clouding my view and certainly ruining my makeup.

When we finally made it to the altar, my father let go off my arm. I noticed that it was hard for him  to do it, and I could hear  he sighed heavily. He had to let go his sweet girl one more time in his life  and this time with Jon Bon Jovi, that Jersey hometown boy with  blue eyes ,tousled messy  hair and that he pretty much disliked in just torn jeans with a guitar hanging. At least, Jon was in his  Tuxedo and that  gave him  a better impression. On our way to the chapel , he'd been bitching with me that Jon seriously  needed a neat haircut . I kept confronting him that there was  no way Jon would do this. Jon's hair was so big and gorgeous that drove me crazy along  with those blue eyes and pouty face.

As my mind wandered , the minister  started talking, and Jon and I looked at each other. Jon made a gesture with his lips, that I was so  tempted to kiss him before we  were authorized by the minister. I whispered quietly as he read my lips.

"I love you".

He gave me a  gorgeous smile .That  beautiful smile with white sparkling teeth, her skin was so rosy,glowing and perfect, sparkling twinkled  blue eyes with a deep blue I had never  seen in him before.Our eyes met. The minister kept talking, but we were lost in each others  eyes, and still waiting for that special moment to   kiss when we were officially pronounced husband and wife.

 "Blood on Blood" song by Bon Jovi was heard on the piano  .Once Mr  Bryan was done playing the song  , he walked to the aisle  and gave 2 rings to the priest minister. Then he sat again on the piano and kept on playing the song which made me even more moved to tears. I kept weeping  and shaking with much euphoria inside. I turned around again  to look at Jon and his eyes were full with tears too. His lips curved in a  tightly sealed  line and a then gave me touching sweet smile pressing hislips. My heart was filled with joy and my legs were shaking too. My hands were sweating at that point ,and  I could not stop shaking.

Finally came the long-awaited words from the minister's mouth :

"John Francis Bongiovi Jr, do you take  Stephanie Rose Dylan as your wife? From this day forward, in sickness and in health,for richer and poorer until death do you part?"
"Yes, I do," Jon answered.His eyes were so wet and dreamy. He looked like a prince with long hair. He took my hand and gently placed the wedding band  on my finger.
"Stephanie Rose Dylan, do you take John Francis Bongiovi Jr as your husband?From this day forward, in sickness and health, for richer and poor until death do you part? "
"Yes, I do" I said smiling. I took Jon's hand and placed his wedding band, moving closer to him and without looking at him in the eye .His expression was breathtaking. His eyes were half closed when he received the wedding band , then opened them and smiled at me . I melted

"I love you" -  Jon whispered. I had that warm feeling in my heart.There I was marrying my favorite rockstar and the most gorgeous man in the world.
"And I adore you " - I replied.


Finally, we stepped into one another and  sealed our lips with a kiss as we were pronounced husband and wife . Jon's kiss was endless,he kissed me  the same way he did in  "Love in New Jersey"movie.His lips rubbed mine  and  my lace gloved hands got lost in his soft big brown hair.The kissed turned longer and more passionate . We turned  around to face the guests, and we smiled as we walked the aisle holding each other . Guests started clapping and cheering.
The wedding was meant to be secret  but I really wanted to be planned ahead as the guys were on the road , and after some Victoria's Secrets ads , I was off and had time to plan things with Carol  . Jon wanted to do it secretly but in my views of Hollywood girl  , I thought that was crazy.Even for my parents so  I insisted on something big in Vegas . After a long talk with Jon , I  convinced him how the wedding reception would be with the help of his mom and his  road manager . His manager Doc Mc Ghee was in charge of the guest list, and Carol  for the floral arrangements.The way she designed the flower arrangement for the ceremony was so beautiful .She asked for all the  white flowers I love , from jasmine, gardenias, bridal crowns, Tuberose, coves, peonies and even more.
All my friends from work that were supermodels like me came to the wedding  ,including my personal manager were all there at the wedding and all Jon's friends around the globe. It was about 500 guests in total. I could not believe that there would be Bruce Springsteen, Paul McCartney, Ozzy Osbourne and his wife and the guys of Skid Row. The reception was in one of the most prestigious ballrooms  in  Vegas at Caesars Palace called "Budokan" .All the menu was Asian food  and Japanese food, Jon's favorite dishes in Tokyo.
When we went back  to the limo, heading to the reception, I was the one who first got in . Jon stayed  out the limo and kept talking with Doc. Why was he taking  so long to step in with me ? They were talking and talking and I sensed something was up. I tucked my dress  into not  to sit above the laced cloth I was  dragging around  and heard Jon screamed:


"Argggggggg........ lunatic fans  ...." - and I heard he kicked  something out his way?

I did not get to see exactly what he kicked out . I freaked out and asked him if he was okay and he said laughing:

"Today ,for many of my fans is a tragic day, it seems that many of them would want to hitch me  . but particularly , This one chick is completely out of her mind "-and he chuckled.
I had no idea what had happened.He kept chuckling but I was starting to freak out and wondered what the hell happened

"but what the fuck? Did anyone  try to... harrass you ? what's wrong,Jon ? "I asked fully concerned .
"Nah,not all all babe , nothing like that. That crazy chick gave Doc a parcel .A  letter, flowers and all that bullshit  .... "
"... But that is so sweet, baby !!!" I said smiling.
"But if you had seen those flowers, horrible funeral flowers and they stink. And not to mention what  she wrote  on the letter," he kept telling me laughing .
"What?" I asked curious and laughing with him .What did she write? I know how crazy women can be when it comes to you an the guys in the band.That's pretty normal.Please, tell me baby.What did that letter say?
"Just bullshit baby, never mind ... They are just here  to stalk us on our wedding day  and this is a special moment I just want to live fully with you. I don't really care about bullshit.Really." And he kissed me
Jon completely ignored the incident but I kept wondering what was going around behind that letter  and flowers.......
