Dan huffed at he looked at his reflection in the mirror, trying to properly tie the bowtie around his neck. It wasn't that hard, his hands were just shaking from the nerves. He jumps as he sees slight movement in the mirror, behind him, seeing Peej just opening the door to check on him. They make eye contact in the mirror and Dan harnesses a shaky smile, before Peej chuckles at the dork, that is his friend.

"So the big day huh?" Peel breaks the silences as he smooths down the suit material on dans shoulders. Dan lets out a breathy laugh "yup i guess it is." Peel just hums in response. "you know, Ellie and Megan are out in the Hall gushing over all the cherry blossom decorations and how cute you guys will be." This cause dan to giggle and look up from fixing his cuffs. He meets Pj's eyes and his smile falters. "Im doing the right thing aren't i?" Peej abruptly grabs Dans shoulders holding his gaze. "You're seriously having second thoughts now? C'mon, this man is in love with you, and would do literally anything for you. Why have your muddled thoughts gotten in the way of these facts?"

Dan shakes his head, looking down and shuffling his feet. "I don't know, wedding jitters i s'pose." He mumbles. "I just love him a lot you know?" This brings a wide smile to Peej's face. "Yes I know dan." He then slaps his hands on his thighs like a form of finality. He then smirks to himself "Right! Well we have just under a half hour to get your flat ass down the isle"

On the other side of the building though, phil was going through his own nervous thoughts with his brother Martyn and his mum fussing over his suit. "Oh my baby boy is growing up!" She would exclaim every few minutes. Phil would groan in response each time, and Martyn told her to stop complaining.

Phil had second thoughts, as did every groom on their wedding day, not speaking them aloud though. Should he be doing this? Is it too late to back out? Does he want to go through with this? Phil just had to think briefly about Dans crinkly brown eyes when he smiles his cute smile, that only shows both dimples if he's really happy, and phil thinks I have to be the only one who can make him smile like that and that's what makes him keep going forward.

Phil smiles to himself as he fumbles with his own tie, his mind drifting off to a place where he raises a little girl with dan and gets a puppy to make her happy. Just the thought of this makes his heart hurt with love. Love. The emotion he never really felt until he met Dan, and this day was to seal their love for each other forever.

Phil looks up from succeeding with his tie to see, his mum and brother smiling at him, being off in his daydream. His mum sighs. "He's perfect for you, you know that?" Phil laughs musically, then shakes his head, despite his response "I know that, but I'm not sure he does" Mrs lester places her hands gently on her sons face, looking deep into his eyes. "I hope he makes you happy phil" Phil gently moves out of her grasp before rolling his eyes "cmon mum, you of all people should know he does" Martyn decides then would be a good time to butt in. "Yeah! And trust me you make him REALLY happy too" he winks. Phil laughs again once more, before looking to the clock on the wall. "Well, we better go see if you're right about that"

By this time guests were starting to fill the chapel. Friends, family, colleagues, contestants from the show and of course the special guests. Who could forget that Ellie had the audacity to invite Muse to Dan and Phil's wedding, even if they only knew them off the show. The grooms' party were all preparing to go inside, as they waited for phil and greeted guests. The best man was of course Pj, who had left dans side a few minutes prior to organise everyone, the maid of honour was of course Zoe for everything she had done for them, the grooms men were Alfie, Caspar, and Martyn, all playing some role in encouraging them and being there for them over the years and the bridesmaids were, of course, Ellie, Megan and Cornelia, Martyn's girlfriend.
