Third-person POV

Tyler was shaking a bit.

His father stood behind him as he put his hand on Tyler's back.

"You seem a bit nervous." Chris said.

"I-I am. Yeah, I'm really nervous." Tyler said with a shaky voice.

Chris chuckled. "Ty, don't be nervous. You're about to marry someone who has been by your side almost all your life. This is the moment in life when you get to make your love for that person official and eternal. Josh is a wonderful guy. He's loved you forever and I'm sure he'll love you forever too."

Tyler smiled. "Josh is...special, Dad. He's the best thing that's ever walked into my life."

"So you're going to do me a favor and help me walk you down the aisle and up to the altar so you can marry the love of your life, Joshua. Can you help me do that?" 

Tyler nodded. "Yes dad. Help me down the aisle please."

Chris gave a pat on Tyler's back. "I just can't believe you're getting married here in this part of the forest. I've never been in here actually. I never knew how lovely it was in here. "

"This was my favorite spot to hang out with Josh when we were young. The tree we're getting married under is the same one we would always talk under and eat lunch sometimes under as well. We thought it would be a lovely spot for us to get married. I'm just so happy dad. Josh and I are making it official." Tyler said with tears in his eyes.

His father, also teary eyed, wiped Tyler's tears. "Aw no no, don't cry my boy. You'll make him happy and he'll make you happy. As long as both of you are happy with one another, nothing can ever change that." 

His father checked his watch. "Alright, it's time."

Tyler took a deep breath. "I'm ready."

His father stood to the right of him and they both walked to the end of the dirt aisle. Beside them on both sides were white chairs all lined up perfectly and all filled with family members and close friends. They turned around to see Tyler and his father. At the end of the aisle, at the altar, was Joshua waiting for Tyler. 

[Cue this song for this scene - i'm crying]

They both walked down the aisle slowly, Tyler clinging to his father's arm as they passed under freshly blooming trees. The scene looked beautiful. It looked like out of a movie. 

Tyler could see out of the corner of his eyes that some people were smiling and awwing. Josh looked at Tyler approaching slowly and almost started to cry. 

"He looks beautiful." he thought.

Tyler couldn't help but smile. This was it. All of the happy moments with Joshua have led up to this very moment. He just couldn't believe it was finally happening.

Near the front of the rows were Tyler's family and Josh's family along with close friends like Brendon, Ryan, Melanie, Ashley, Jenna and a few others. 

After walking slowly up the aisle, they were nearing the altar and once they reached the row with Tyler's family, his father let go and went to sit next to his wife.
