The video opens to a photo of Tony and Pepper standing together. Pepper is wearing a beautiful white dress with a long, elegant veil. Tony is wearing a blue tux, with a gold vest underneath and a gold bowtie. Words are written in cursive across the bottom of the photo.

"So, Tony, how you feeling?" Bucky asks from behind the camera.
Tony grins nervously at the camera, fiddling with his sleeves. "Nervous. Any minute now, the music is gonna start, and people are going to start walking down that aisle."
"Yeah, so I probably better go sit down," Bucky laughs. "Good luck, Tony. And congrats."
"Thanks, Bucky," Tony smiles at him.

A camera is set up behind Tony, giving a clear view of the aisle. Music swells, as Rhodey and Nat emerge, walking gracefully together. They're followed by Clint and Laura, Thor and Wanda, Steve and Maria, Happy and Hope, and Peter and MJ. Peter is, indeed, wearing sunglasses and an earpiece, looking uncharacteristically grim and serious. MJ is barely concealing her laughter, trying to keep a straight face. Laughter breaks out among the audience at the sight. Tony laughs, as well. As the bridesmaids and groomsmen reach the alter, they separate, the bridesmaids going to stand across from Tony, while the groomsmen stand behind him. Peter, however, follows MJ to the other side, standing just behind her, doing the job of a bodyguard very well.
Lila begins to make her way down the aisle. Instead of throwing flower petals, she's dropping dog treats in the shape of flowers. The audience begins making confused noises, until Lady trots into view, the pillow holding the rings attached to her back, and begins following the trail of treats that Lila provided.
The music changes to the traditional 'Here Comes the Bride' and swells louder. The audience stands, as Pepper and her father begin to make their way down the aisle.
Pepper looks stunning, in a long, white gown with a sweetheart neckline, with off the shoulder, short sleeves. The veil falls down her back in a beautiful cascade.

The camera angle has changed to be zoomed in on Tony's face. He's got tears in his eyes, as Pepper's father gives her away, and she joins him at the alter.

The same photo is showing, but the words have changed.
The Reception
{cut}
The camera flashes through different photos of the reception. We see the table setup, which is round tables, blue tablecloths, gold dishes, and blue and gold napkins. There are flowers in the center of the table, accompanied by candles. There are more flowers on the backs of the chairs, with names woven into them. Blue and gold silk hangs in domes on the ceiling, with blue and gold paper in chains along the walls. There's tables of food, and the room is adorned in blue and gold balloons, paper flowers, and pom-poms. The little boxes of macarons are set out on a table near a door.
The camera cuts to the cake, circling around it. It's massive, with over a dozen tiers. It's decorated with icing flowers and pearls, and a beautiful topper adorns the highest tier. Peter wasn't lying; it is a little extra, but it's beautiful.

Rhodey is standing up, reading off a paper. We only hear a piece of his speech.
"Tony's been my best friend since college," he says. "When he was just a fifteen-year-old kid, too smart for his own good, and... well, I had to get him out of trouble, you know?"

Nat's giving her speech.
"The Avenger's are very close as a team, and Pepper has always been a part of that team," she says. "I was the first one of us to meet her, besides Tony, of course, and... and maybe I was there undercover, but we had a bond as soon as we met, and... she's been one of my best friends ever since, she's like a sister to me. I don't say this often, but I love you both, and I am so happy for the both of you."

It's Peter's turn.
"Well, hi, everyone," Peter's voice cracks. It's obvious he's nervous. "Um, well, I only met Mr. Stark almost two years ago, when I was fourteen and... and he'd needed help with something, and for some reason, he searched me out, just kind of, showed up in my house and said he needed me, and I was totally shell-shocked and a little terrified, but I went with him and helped him out and then he offered me an internship at Stark Industries, and I started working in his lab, and everything just kind of snowballed from there, and now... I mean, I live with him now, and he's like... I've never said this before, and I'm really kind of scared to, but... he's like a dad to me, in a way I've only really had once before, and I... I love him a lot, and Pepper too, because they both just took me into their lives when I needed them most, and I can never repay them for that. I just... thank you both, so much, for everything you've done for me, and I am so thankful that I get to be a part of your lives. I love you both more than I can probably ever tell you."
As he sits down, the camera zooms in on Tony subtly wiping his eyes.

"My god, Peter!" Tony laughs, standing back to stare up at the cake. "You weren't kidding, were you?"
"No, I was not, Mr. Stark," Peter grins. "I told you you'd have the most fantastical wedding cake!"
Tony laughs harder.

Someone is walking the camera around the dance floor. We see Tony and Pepper dancing together, both looking the happiest they've ever been in their lives. Peter and MJ are dancing together, albeit a little awkwardly, but they're both smiling and look to be having fun. Ned is standing with a girl, looking both terrified but excited, while she smiles at him. Couples fill the dance floor. Clint is standing with Laura, and Cooper, Lila, and Nathaniel stand around them, all dancing together. Overall, everyone appears to be having fun.
The camera turns back to Tony and Pepper, as they lean in to kiss each other.

"Here they come, here they come!" a woman shouts.
The camera is focused on a pair of doors. People line the steps leading down from it, which lead right to a limo. As we watch, the doors open, and Tony and Pepper burst out. The people begin to scream, throwing rice and beautiful flower petals into the air as the newly married couple race down the steps, smiling and laughing. They stop for a moment at the bottom, to give Peter tight hugs and whisper something to him, before they turn, wave to everyone, and get in the car.
The camera watches as the car drives down the road, the words Just Married! Written on the back windshield, cans dragging along behind it.

Another photo shows, this one of Tony and Pepper in the middle, all the bridesmaids and groomsmen beside them, smiling brightly at the camera. Words go across the bottom, in the same script.
