Daddy's Girl

The Wedding of My Dreams

After 6 months of getting engaged, Stevie and I finally have the wedding of our dreams. The wedding is held at Bellingham Castle in Louth, Ireland. I always wanted to get married in a beautiful castle.

All of my families and relatives from home and from New York came to Ireland to celebrate our wedding and I was so excited to get married.

On the day of the wedding, I was getting ready in my hotel room with Stevie's sister, Carmen, who is my maid of honour. Lynsey's co-workers from her job came to help us style our hairs and do our make ups.

Lynsey was there to help me get into my dress. Meanwhile, Stevie was in his room, getting ready. His brother, Trent is his best man, helps him with his tie.

"I'm proud of you little bro. Today, you'll become a married man.", Trent replied. "Thanks.", Stevie smiled. Then my dad came in to see him. "How's it going?", Dad asked.

"It's going great. I can't wait to marry her.", Stevie replied. "I know, you're very excited to have my daughter as your wife.", Dad smiled.

"Mr Dawson, I want to say thank you.", Stevie replied. "For what?", he asked. "Thanks for giving me a second chance and let me show you that I'm good enough for Apple", Stevie replied.

"Well, you'll always be the one for my daughter and I know you'll love and support her for life. And please, Steven. Call me Brendan.", Dad replied.

"Yes, Brendan.", Stevie smiled. "Anyways, I'll see you all at the aisle.", Dad smiled as he leaves. As everyone arrives to the ceremony, Stevie and Trent went to the aisle and waited at the altar.

My brother, Oscar is the page boy and is holding the ring box that contains the wedding rings. Lynsey, was sitting outside, waiting for Dad.

Dad was at the aisle, waiting for me to arrive with Carmen. "Dad!", I called out. Dad turned around and saw me in my wedding dress. "Oh, Apple, you look absolutely beautiful, just like a princess", Dad sighed.

"I wish Mom was here", I sighed. "She is.", Dad smiled. I hugged my dad and I link my hand around his arm as we're prepared to walk down the aisle together.

"Are you ready?", he asked. "Yes...", I sighed. We then walked down the aisle together as everyone stood up from their seats and watched us walking down. Stevie, who was standing at the altar was smiling.

Dad and I got to the end of the aisle. He then kisses my cheek and later shake Stevie's hand before joining Lynsey. Stevie and I exchanged our vows and later Oscar present our rings.

Stevie put my wedding ring on his finger and I put his ring on his finger. "I now pronounce you husband and wife, you may kiss your bride.", the celebrant replied.

I grabbed Stevie by the face and kiss him passionately as everyone cheered on. Dad was crying and Lynsey consoles him. "Hey, don't be a softie!", Lynsey giggles.

Later, we were taking group photos by our wonderful wedding photographer and later Stevie and I take our wedding photos around the castle, while guests are waiting at the reception.

That night, at our reception, the DJ announce our grand entrance. "Ladies and gentleman, please welcome the bride and groom!", the DJ called out. Everyone cheered as Stevie and I make our entrance to the reception, hand in hand.

After enjoying our appetisers, it was time for Stevie and my first dance. We danced to "I Believe My Heart" by Duncan James, which is our favourite love song.

Later on, it was time for my father-daughter dance with Dad and we danced to "Cinderella" by Steven Curtis Chapman, which the song that Dad and I dance to when I was a little girl.

During my dance with Dad, he looked at me and had a vision of me as a little girl. "I'm so happy for you, baby girl.", Dad cried. "Thanks Dad.", I sighed, as I hugged him. "I love you.", I sighed. "I love you too.", Dad sighed. "No matter what, you will always be my little girl", Dad sighed.

Throughout the night, we danced to loud music and having so much fun. Trent said his best man speech to everyone.

"I would never forget when Stevie told me that he was going to ask Apple to marry him. I'm so happy and so proud of my little brother, seeing how brave he is to propose to the woman of his dreams. I love you little bro, and to Apple, you'll make my brother so happy. To Apple and Stevie!", Trent replied, raising his champagne glass.

"To Apple and Stevie!", everyone replied, raising their champagne glasses. Stevie and I kiss after raising our glasses. Stevie and I later cut our beautiful wedding cake and fed a piece of each other.

After the reception, Stevie and I depart the reception and head back to our suite. Stevie carried me all the way back and arrives to our beautiful suite.

The next day, Stevie and I depart Ireland and head off to our honeymoon in Hawaii.
