On the anniversary of the day Layla and Jeff first met in that supermarket carpark, the pair were married.

They had a small ceremony with close family and friends in a beautiful summerhouse overlooking a lake.

Jeffrey looked insanely attractive in a nice fitted suit. That man was just all sorts of handsome. Layla thought herself the luckiest woman alive.

The moment Jeffrey saw Layla walking down the aisle towards him in her wedding dress that could only be described as perfect, he couldn't stop the tears from welling up in his eyes

The marriage celebrant said his part, before asking the couple to exchange their vows and rings.

"Layla... Sweetheart.  You are the love of my life. I knew from the moment we met that you were special, and it didn't take me long to work out that you were the one for me. I promise to love you with all that I have, and I promise to raise Benji as my own, and love him just as you do. I will love you, protect you and care for you both until my dying day" Jeff smiled as he slipped the ring on her finger and kissed her hand softly.

"Jeff, you are the most perfect, sweet and kind hearted man I have ever known and I am so thankful that you walked into our lives. You have made me happier than I ever thought possible. You have been an amazing father to Benji, you have cared for him, protected him and stood up for him when he couldn't do it for himself. I couldn't be more excited to be your wife and I look forward to our future together. I will love you forever and always" she grinned as she placed the ring on his finger.

"I now pronounce you... husband and wife" the celebrant smiled. "You may kiss the bride".

Wrapping his arms around her Jeff kissed her deeply while the small crowd clapped, whistled and cheered. They posed for a quick photo at the alter before Layla turned to Benji.

"Hey baby, come here" she smiled and he ran into her arms. Layla hugged him tight and kissed his cheek. "Have you got Daddy's present?" She asked. He thought for a moment and then ran back to where he had been sitting with Jeffrey's father, Bisou and Monty and retrieved a parcel.
