493 Our Dream Wedding

To my surprise, Ace was firm with his father so that his business partners would not be on the guest list. At the end of the day, the Chairman had to give his approval for Ace to have his way. I knew that Ace must have done that out of respect for my wishes.

The white church decorated with a mix of white and light pastel pink and blue flowers gave off the slightly fairytale vibe that I had in mind. In fact, the set up and decoration looked better than what I could have imagined in my mind. The inside of the church was decorated with the same theme of flowers.

"This is better than what I had in mind..." I told Ace honestly.

"I'm glad to hear it. Let's have a wonderful wedding, Rina," Ace said before showing me a smile so charming that my heart skipped a beat.

He reached for my hand and entwined his fingers with mine before giving my hand a soft and encouraging squeeze. I suddenly felt so excited and the wedding that was about to start felt more real than ever.

"You're right. Let's really enjoy this as much as we can," I replied happily.

"We should get dressed..." Ace pointed out.

"Absolutely, we don't want to be late," I replied before letting out a giggle.

...

Everything about our wedding was truly perfect. It felt like the heavens were smiling down on us along with the soft warm glow of the sunlight. It felt like the angels were singing us praise and sending us well wishes every time that the breeze blew gently. Since my father had passed a long time ago, he wasn't there to walk me down the aisle. I was too young when he left this world for me to have any memories of him, but I found myself thinking of him on one of the most special days of my life. His absence wasn't at all an issue because I still had my mother to do me the honors of walking me down the aisles.

"Are you sure about this?" she asked when I brought the idea up to her.

"Of course, I am. If not you, then who else? It just has to be you, mum," I replied as I felt tears stinging the back of my eyes.

"Of course, I'll do it. I'll do anything for you," my mother replied before pulling me into her embrace.

In the end, it was my mother who ended up getting emotional and crying on that day. After getting dressed, we were both ready to enter the church where the guests were waiting for us. Most importantly, I knew that Ace was waiting for me.

"Just reminding you that I will count down after the band has started playing. Then the doors will slowly open. The spotlight will shine on you and that is your queue to start walking. Best of luck and watch out for your dress," the head of the organizer team explained to me one last time.

"Are you nervous?" my mother asked teasingly as she gave my hand a squeeze.

I was sure that she was just as nervous as I was. Simply put, I was so nervous that my legs were shaking, but at the same time, I couldn't wait to walk in there and along the aisle until I could stand at Ace's side in front of the altar.

"A little..." I whispered in reply.

When it was our turn to enter, the church doors slowly opened for us to enter. The sound of the live band playing a classical wedding song surrounded us and added to the mood of the wedding. The golden light shining down on us felt like a sign from above. My close colleagues were there along with my close friends. Then there were people from Ace's side of the family, his colleagues, and his friends.

I didn't realize much of anything partly because I was so nervous as I slowly made my way down the aisle with my mother by my side. The other part was because my attention was sucked it by the man wearing a white tuxedo who was waiting for me at the end of my walk at the altar. Ace looked much more stunning than the day when we tried on our wedding outfits together. I thought he looked bewitchingly attractive then as well, but the real day just hits differently.

"Please take care of my Rina," my mother said softly as she placed my hand in Ace's.

"Of course, I will. I promise," Ace replied with a gentle smile.

His hand holding mine felt warm and firm. I could feel tears welling up in my eyes, but I had to desperately hold them back because the ceremony was about to start, and I didn't want to look like a mess. My mother turned to me and offered me one last smile before she left the two of us alone in front of the altar.

We exchanged our wedding vows the very standard way. Just as I had requested, I wanted to keep everything as simple as possible. Now with the exchanging of rings, we would become Man and Wife. Feeling the wedding band slide along my ring finger to join the company of the engagement ring that Ace gave me made me feel conscious of the heavy responsibility and also the overwhelming joy of becoming his wife.

"You may now kiss the bride," the priest announced happily.

"I love you," Ace whispered as he wrapped an arm around my waist to pull me closer to him.

"I love you too...so much..." I whispered back endearingly as I stared up into his hazel eyes.

Ace's face slowly came closer to mine and my eyelids automatically slid closed as I offered him my lips. Ace sealed our wedding vows and marked the end of our wedding ceremony with a soft and sweet kiss. I could feel his love so clearly from his kiss and I hoped that he could also feel the love that I felt for him.
