It was the morning of the wedding, and once again, River had hardly got any sleep due to her unborn daughter.

At approximately 8am, her younger sister Brooklyn ran into the spare room.

"Melody!" she shouted repeatedly as she jumped on the bed, "Wedding time. Time for us to be a princesses."

What Brooklyn was saying was in fact true, River had promised to let her little sister choose a beautiful dress and to have her hair done professionally like a princess. Brooklyn was in love with the idea and hadn't let it go since River had told her about it.

"Yes, I know, sweetie. You haven't let me forget since the moment I told you," River laughed.

There was a gentle knock on the bedroom door followed by a thick Scottish accent asking whether she could come in.

"Melody is awake, Mum, it's fine" Brooklyn said, happy that her two favorite people were awake and in the same room.

"Good morning, Mum," River said as she sat up in her double bed, which felt really empty because the Doctor wasn't there to take up his half of the bed.

Amy sat on the end of the bed, im awe that Rivers day was finally here, she was more worried about something going terribly wrong.

"Sleep well Mel?" Amy asked.

River sighed, "I think I had about two hours sleep, the little one kept deciding to play football."

"Perks of pregnancy, my dear," Amy tried to say in the most serious tome she could do.

"Mum," Brooklyn asked, "When do I get to be a princess?"

"Well, I have the whole morning planned out for three of us, which reminds me," Amy babbled, "We have to leave in 20 minutes for the first part of the morning."

Both River and Brooklyn looked at Amy, "Mum!" they exclaimed in usion.

Amy forced River out of bed and made her and Brooklyn get ready in time for 8:20 am. She had a few surprises for her daughters.

"So, where are we going so damn early?" River asked Amy.

"Well, first we are going out for breakfast, then it's hair time, and then it will be time for us to come home and get ready in time for the big day."

River sighed, it sounded like fun, but all she wanted right now was her Doctor, her son and daughter and a decent amount of sleep.

Back in the TARDIS, the Doctor was pacing around the control room, his nerves getting the better of him. His thoughts were the only thing kept him company for the past hour, but they also kept telling him to go and see River even though he had been given specific instructions not to leave the TARDIS.

"Daddy?" Dayton said as he walked into the control room holding his space themed comfort blanket, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing sunshine, Daddy is just missing Momma that's all," the Doctor smiled, "What are you doing up anyway?"

"I miss Momma too," he said as he rubbed his eyes with his blanket, "And I had a bad dream."

"Come here," the Doctor said as he held his hands out.

Dayton walked over to the Doctor, dragging his blanket behind him, "Daddy, when do we get to see Momma?" Dayton asked when the Doctor had picked him up.

The Doctor began to walk back to Daytons bedroom to put his sleepy son back to bed, at least for a few hours.

"Soon, when Grandpa says we can," the Doctor said quietly.

The Doctor put Dayton back in his bed and read him his favorite bedtime story, complete with silly voices and sonicing the air with his sonic screwdriver.

Back on Earth, it was time for River to get ready for the wedding, it was currently 11am and the wedding started at 12pm. Amy, Brooklyn and River had relocated to the wedding location which was a lavish hotel which River had the joy of picking.

"River," Amy said, "That is Brooklyn ready, now to start on your makeup."

River decided that she wanted Amy to do her hair and makeup, she really just wanted everyone there that mattered to her and the Doctor, and she had a few surprises for him.

"Okay," River said as she sat down in front of the mirror, her excitement and nerves building up inside her.

Amy carefully applied Rivers makeup making sure that she looked perfect - even though she didn't need the makeup for that - and then she worked wonders on Rivers hair, trying to keep it as natural as possible.

After 30 minutes, River was finally ready - minus the wedding dress - and it was time to get Brooklyn into her bridesmaid dress which she had chosen herself and then for Amy to get ready.

By the time the clock struck 12pm, everyone in the specious hotel room was ready, for once they were going to be on time.

"You look so pretty Melody," Brooklyn smiled, proud of her older sister.

"Well I wish I looked like you, your dress is way better than mine," she smiled back.

Amy sat back and watched her two daughters talking, it was hard for her to believe that River was doing the whole 'big white wedding thing', but she was happy that her other daughter and son could share these special moments.

There was a small knock on the door followed by Rory's voice, "We are ready downstairs."

Brooklyn open the hotel door, "Dad," she said happily as she hugged her father.

"You look so pretty, princess," Rory smiled as he hugged his daughter back.

He then looked up and he saw River, and he was speechless. He dress was so simple, but so effective at the same time. It was white and plain, strapless and it hugged her figure in all the right places, showing off her baby bump which she was proud of.

"What do you think, Dad?" River sighed.

"Perfect," Rory smiled, "But we have to go otherwise we'll be very late," he added with a small laugh.

And then it was time, time for River to marry the love of her life...again.
