Tom pressed a kiss to my head as Ali briefly chatted with the DJ. "I love you, darling." He whispered, pulling me close.

"I love you too." I grinned as I kissed his cheek. "You know, we've said that a whole lot today."

"Today is the absolute best day to say it a whole lot, though." I smiled and nodded at that.

"Fair enough, I guess." I grinned, pressing my lips to his. As we pulled away, he smiled at me and pulled me closer as we looked back out toward the DJ booth.

As Ali made her way back, I sent her a smile, which she returned. "Alright, ladies and gentleman, it's time for the bouquet toss!" I grabbed my bouquet from its vase, pressing my lips to Tom's briefly before standing up for the bouquet toss.

Sure, the bouquet toss and the whole "the person who catches it is the next one to get married" seemed a little silly, but it was one of my favorite wedding traditions.

As I walked over to the crowd, I could see how excited they all were. I was excited, too--this was going to be memorable, that's for sure. I turned around so my back was to the group of girls once I noticed everyone was there.

The DJ was counting down to when I threw my bouquet behind my head, and I would fake throws with every number. "Three...two...one!"

Instead of actually throwing my bouquet over my head for someone to catch it, I turned around with a wide smile and casually walked to the crowd of women. "Here you go." I smiled as I handed the bouquet to Zendaya, who raised an eyebrow.

"What is this?" I smiled lovingly, stepping back as Ali took a deep breath and took her free hand.

"Hi, baby." Beth immediately figured out what was going on, and she squealed happily. I chuckled as I let the two women have their moment. "Seeing how in love Tom and Grace are as they went through their engagement made me realize that's exactly how much I love you."

"Ali..." She smiled widely, and Ali grinned even more. She reached into her boobs (for the second time that day) and pulled out a ring.

"This has been poking me all day." Everyone chuckled as she looked at Zendaya, taking a deep breath as she got down on one knee. "Baby girl, I love you more than I can describe, and I'm surprised that actual words are leaving my mouth right now."

"You can do it, baby." She smiled widely, and I grinned as I felt Tom wrap his arms around me. I placed my arms on top of his as I watched.

"Zendaya, will you make me the happiest woman in the world and marry me?" As Zendaya nodded excitedly, everyone cheered as Ali slipped the ring on and they sealed their engagement with a kiss.

"Congratulations!" I smiled widely as I pulled them both in for a hug, and Tom soon joined us in a mini group hug.

"Thank you both for letting me do this at your wedding." Ali smiled, and I grinned.

"Today is all about celebrating love. That doesn't have to be just ours." Tom's sentiment got a sweet reaction from everyone, and Ali smiled as we pulled away.

"Now, who's ready for an actual bouquet toss?" The girls cheered, and I smiled as Zendaya handed me the bouquet. I pressed a kiss to Tom's lips quickly before getting back into position for a bouquet toss.

I let out a squeal as the flowers left my hand, grinning as I heard an excited cheer. I turned to see Beth holding the bouquet excitedly, and I chuckled as I saw Ryan's eyes widen as he whispered "fuck." I grinned as I pulled her into a hug, and I could hear Tom laughing at Ryan.

After the bouquet toss was finished, the DJ played some music for everyone to dance along to, and we were all having a good time. Tom and I danced together the whole night, and everyone around us just made the whole night incredible.

We cut into our cake and I smiled widely, kissing him softly as we did. As we grabbed the forks and fed bites to each other, I saw him wink softly. "This is not going to be our only dessert tonight." He whispered, and I shook my head with a chuckle.

"Perv." I teased, and he shrugged gently with a wink. I chuckled softly as we took our pieces of cake to the sweetheart table, sitting down.

After we both finished our cake, I smiled as my mom brought over Annabelle to the two of us. "I know the two of you are using your honeymoon as a time for just yourselves, and you're gonna want as much Annabelle time as possible."

"Thank you, mom." I smiled as I took her gently, smiling at our daughter. "Hi there, pretty girl."

"There's our happy princess." Tom smiled as I sat back down, pulling the two of us close. We always loved sitting like this, the three of us cuddled into each other. I could see her smile widely as I pressed a kiss to her head. "I can barely believe she's five months old."

"I know. She's so super happy and adorable too." I grinned as we heard her cooing, and Tom smiled as he pressed his lips to mine. After a bit, he smiled and pulled away briefly. "I love you, wifey."

"I love you too, hubby." I grinned up at him, and he smiled.

Once we bid our goodbyes to everyone, we made our way to the honeymoon suite of the best hotel in London. We had really decided to spoil ourselves, but I felt awful doing that without giving something back. So, all of our leftovers were given to the employees of the Tower and also donated to the local shelter for hot meals that night. We also donated a large chunk of money to a women's shelter in London, a cause that meant a lot to me.

As we walked into the hotel room, Tom pinned me against the wall and smirked teasingly. "As beautiful as that dress is, I'd rather bask in your full ethereal beauty."

"What a gentlemanly way of saying you'd love to see me naked." I chuckled, and he shrugged as he reached to the back of my dress. He felt the corset and groaned playfully.

"Tease." He chuckled, untying the bow quickly.

"Just as I'd wanted." I laughed softly.
