Wedding Bells

The reception

The song above is what Luz and Amity slow dance to.

            The reception started a little less than ten minutes later. Everybody walked into the big dining room.

            "Wow." Luz said.

            "You can say that again, sweetie. This is better than I could have imagined." Amity said.  It was beautiful and exactly the way Luz and Amity wanted. Hi fashion and class mixed with comfort and style. So that everyone would feel comfortable no matter where they came from. Blue tablecloths with pink flowers covered the tables. Sterling silver plates and silverware was at every chair along with pink napkins. The plates, glasses and wine glasses were engraved with A+L.

          With every few high class items, there was something quirky to balance it out., which resembled the couple to a tee. Numbers were placed on every table, as the married couple spent what felt like days getting the seating arrangement done on who would sit where.

            When planning the reception, Luz and amity agreed that they would each get one thing they wanted in the reception. For Luz, it was the different sized stars that were hung up on the roof and some on the table. For Amity, it was expensive candles in the wedding favors. The candles were infused with different oils, so it brought different smells and feelings as the candle burned. They had the same ones back in their apartment. Luz and Amity were walking around and pointing at various things and giggling.

            "There's the happy couple." Said a woman walking up to Luz and Amity.

            "Laverne!" Amity said, giving her a big hug. "You have clearly out done yourself this time."

            "Yeah. Amity said you were good at what you did. But this is just incredible." Luz said hugging Laverne."

            "Yeah I got a great team. This wasn't easy as some people were a bit stubborn, but seeing your smiling faces made it all worth it." Lavern said. Her phone buzzed. After checking it, she sighed and smiled at the married couple. "Apparently, there a little confusion on the order of dishes. A planners job is never done."

            "I do hope you'll join us and have some food and cake when it arrives." Amity said.

            Laverne smiled. "Well, when it comes from miss Amity Blight. How could I refuse?" She hugged the two girls and walked away.

            A few moments later, Amity and Luz's family walked up to them beaming with happiness. Mr. Blight smiled and nodded approvingly, which made Luz smile. She knew Amity's father was a man of few words. Emira pulled Luz in for a big hug which surprised the Latina

            "Welcome to the family Luz." Emira said.

            "Thanks. Emira, it's getting hard to breath." Luz said.

            "Oh sorry." She let go, feeling a little embarrassed.

            "Yeah. I'm so happy for you and Mittens. I can't wait to take you to all the best video game premiers and events." Said Edrick, knowing how big a gamer Luz is.

            Amity blushed. 20 years old and she is still embarrassed by that nickname. "When are you going to stop using that nickname?"

            Edrick ruffled her hair, to which Amity immediately swatted his hand away. "I'm never going to stop using that nickname. I can't wait for Luz to see her" Emira elbowed him in the ribs, cutting him off. She glared at him before mouthing 'don't ruin it.'

            Amity began fixing her hair. "It took boscha 15 minutes to do my hair. Also you know only my wife is allowed to call me that." Wife. She loved saying that. She was Luz's wife. It just felt right to say that.
