I tie up the back of her white dress. I look at her in the mirror.

"Your about to marry the British bean." I tell her. She laughs and turns around.

"He's my British bean." She smiles and almost hits me with her very pregnant belly. "Sorry."

"It's okay." I laugh.

"Were you this nervous? When you got married?" She asks me sitting down on the couch.

"Just a little bit more. I didn't know who I was marrying." I say sitting next to her. "You know him, I know him. Shit, the whole world knows him. He's a good guy." I say rubbing her shoulder.

"God, you sound old and wise." She says.

"That's what happens when you grow up." I say.

"Don't remind me." She groans. I laugh and I look at the time on my phone.

"Let's go get you married, shall we?" I say standing up with my arms out to her.

"But this couch is really comfy." She says.

"But, you have a really hot groom waiting for you at the alter." I say dancing a little.

"You win." She laughs while taking my hands. I stand her up and we walk arm in arm to the door.

I grab her flowers and hand them to her. We walk out the door and to the main doors where we wait for the music. The music begins and we walk through the door. I look at Grace who is smiling like a fool. I then look to Tom who's eyes are tearing up. We continue to walk down the isle till we meet Tom up there. I hand her off and give him a hug.

"Welcome to the family." I whisper to him. I go and sit down next to Daniel.

"We are gathered here today as witnesses to the union of Grace Palmer and Tom Holland." The man starts. He talks some more and it's time for the vows.

"Grace Palmer, I love you and I promise to love you till my dying breath. When we first met at that concert, I knew you were a fan. But I also knew there was something different about you. When we went on our first date, I knew that you would be the one. I know that's cheesy as hell, but it's the truth. If we fast forward to now, we are getting married and have three little ones on the way. I love you and I promise to love you no matter what the day will bring. Snow, lighting, hail, rain and a bunch of other kinds of weather. I love you and I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you." Tom finishes and a tear roll downs his cheek and Grace wipes it away.

"Allie, I need you to read it." Grace says with a shaky voice. I smile and take the paper from her.

"Tom, from our first 'I love you's' to now at the alter I always knew I wanted you. You make my days brighter, even when the sun is no where in sight. With these three little children on the way, I have thought that everyday I wouldn't be a good mother. But everyday you prove me wrong over and over again. You are my rock. You are my home. You are my love. You are one of my best friends. You are my everything. I love you. I love you. I love you and don't you ever forget it. I can't wait for what ever is next. I love you Tom Holland. I. Love. You." I finish reading and I look at Tom who is crying. I look to Grace who is crying too. I hand them back to her and sit back down.

"Did you write that?" Daniel leans over to me and asks. I stifle a laugh.

"I helped." I reply as the ceremony continues.

"How much helping did you do?"

"I helped and lets leave it at that." I say turning my attention back to Grace and Tom.

"I do." Grace says.

"You may now kiss the bride!" The man says. Tom leans over to Grace over the babies and kisses her. We all stand up and cheer.
