Now, please enjoy the Rin and Amaimon's Wedding/Mating Ceremony.

Rin grumbled at whoever was shaking him awake, swatting their hands away.

"Do you wanna be late to your own wedding, Rin?!" Izumo snapped, shaking him harder. Rin furrowed his brows. His own wedding?

His own wedding....

Holy shit!

That was today!!

Rin sat straight up, a grin lighting his face. It was the fastest he'd ever woken up at such an early hour. He was getting married today!!

"That's the spirit! Come on, let's get breakfast. We have some time to kill." Mamushi told them.

"Then why'd we wake up so early?" Izumo complained.

Mamushi smiled. "Because pre-wedding jitters are can be intense. First it's the excitement when you wake up, then it's the pure anxiety of something going wrong. You need time to come to terms with everything that's happening before it happens." The snake woman explained.

Juzou had the baby until they met up later when everyone gathered for the wedding. Mamushi was back in shape and a stay-at-hone Mom. Juzou was super happy being as to provide for his family and he was equally enamoured with his baby daughter Sachi. Rin loved babysitting Sachi and it always reminded him how much he wanted to have kids.

"I don't know, I might have already worried myself out way before today over things going wrong during the ceremony. In the end, everything has a chance to go wrong. But if I think like that, I'll never get anything done." Rin admitted.

"I'm glad we get to be your family for this wedding, Rin. No bride should have their side of the seating empty on their wedding day. We're honoured to have you as one of us." Ao told him, Nishiki nodding along with her.

"You're going to be perfect and you'll be so happy you can't stop smiling. I just know it!" Shiemi agreed, hugging Rin tight.

They ordered breakfast to be brought to their suite–they were already in Tuscany at Belmond Castello di Casole.

"We'll start hair and makeup at 8:30, then we'll all get dressed, then we'll meet the men, take pictures of couples and families, and then the ceremony will start. We won't rush, well take our time, and Rin and Amaimon will be married by tonight. Sound good?" Mamushi went over the day's plan. Rin nodded.

Rin wanted his hair to be black so it wouldn't clash with the dress and because he had just been a regular half-demon when his relationship with Amaimon started. He elected to keep his horns visible. It wasn't too hard to do his hair around them since the do was a simple one–his bangs clipped at the back of his head while the rest of his hair flowed free down his back.

Rin's makeup was simple–a shimmery beige with just a hint of salmon shimmer and simple eyeliner and black mascara. He elected for a light pink gloss instead of lipstick. A pale pink blush was tapped onto his cheekbones.

The bridesmaids and flower girl all curled their hair and put it up, pins and clips and curlers strewn about the room as they did so. They put their makeup on–also simple, and then they began putting on dresses and finding who's shoes were who's.
