"Is this really happening?" I ask on the verge of tears.
They all nod and I turn around to look at myself in the mirror. Woah. I'm getting married!
•
I hear the music play and Peeta's father walks me down the aisle. I see my very handsome husband standing there with tears in his eyes.
When I finally get to him immediately hold his hand.
"You look beautiful." He whispers to me.
"You look handsome." I whisper back and we both smile.

The ceremony starts.
"We are gathered here today to celebrate one of life's greatest moments, and to cherish the words which shall unite Katniss and Peeta in marriage." Phil starts.
"Marriage is the promise between two people who love each other, and who trust in love, who honor each other as individuals, and who choose to spend the rest of their lives together."
"This ceremony will not create a relationship that does not already exist between you. It is a symbol to how far you have come. It is a symbol of the promises you will make to each other to continue growing stronger as individuals and as partners."
"No matter what challenges you face, you now face them together, and no matter how much you succeed, you know succeed together. The love between you joins you now as one. The bride and groom have a few words to share." He finishes and I definitely have tears in my eyes. Peeta goes first.
"Day by day, I know and love you more. I learn from your wisdom everyday. Your mind stirs my to new heights; your faith in me gives me strength; your touch delights me; and without your love I am incomplete."
"Between us we find the echo of the love that has filled the universe since the dawn of creation; through us it spreads peace and harmony o our friends and family and beyond."
"So this day, I blind myself to you with these wedding vows, willingly and wholeheartedly, free from any doubt or mental reservation:"
"In riches and in poverty, in jubilation and in despair , in sickness and in health, despite our flaws, I will share my life with you, Katniss Everdeen."
"All that is mine is yours. With love I will tell you the truth, as I understand it. I will honor and respect you. I will rejoice in your joys and weep in your sorrows. I will love and cherish you, without cease and without pause, all the days in our lives, until death parts us." Peeta finishes and so many tears are streaming down my face uncontrollably.
"Miss Everdeen your vows." I take a deep breath and then start.
" 'I love you' means that I accept you for the person that you are and that I do not wish to change you into someone else. It means that I do not expect perfection from you- just as you do not expect perfection from me. It means that I will love you and stand by you every through the worst times."
"It means loving you when you're in a bad mood or to tired to do things I want to do. It means loving you when you're down- not just when you're fun to be with."
" 'I love you' means that I know your deepest secrets and do not judge you for them- asking in return only that you do not judge me for mine. It means that I care enough to fight for what we have, and love enough not to let go."
"It means thinking of you, dreaming of you, wanting and needing you constantly, and hoping that you feel the same way for me. I love you with all my heart Peeta Mellark."
"I promise that I will love you, even on the days I don't like you. I will think less of what I want and more about what you want. I will laugh with you, not at you. I will support you. I will respect you. I will stand by you no matter what, and I will love growing old with you. I will love you to the death Peeta Mellark." I finish and Peeta's eyes are a bit teary.
"It is very evident that this young couple, will forever love each other. Do you Peeta Mellark take Katniss Everdeen to love and to cherish, in sickness and in health?"
"I do" he says.
"Do you Katniss Everdeen take Peeta Mellark to live and to cherish, in sickness and in health?"
"I do" I say.
"By the power vested in me, I now pronounce you man and wife, you may now kiss your bride."
We both look into each other's eyes with huge smiles on our faces. I feel a soft pair of lips on mine. Fireworks go off in my again.
