The espousal was not held in the main kingdom where the king attended it, not in a town with the lovely citizen, not in a cathedral with its romantic candles and embellishing flowers nor in a beach either with its exquisite ambience and wondrous sunset.
My wedding ceremony was not a big one, yet quite an exquisite and dreamy one.
It was held in a garden in lakefront deep in the forest where a flower arch stood elegantly, the arch was made out of hydrangea flowers, tinted in mint-green,some shaded with white and some shaded with light beryl blue. Some blue roses sparkled because of the dew also prettify the place. And the lake, it was shimmering because of the gleaming sun which gave a perfect warmth ambience.
Lawrence and I had decided to make it a private some sort of secret wedding that was why not many creatures came, even no human was invited. Only some dryads, naiads, satyrs and a few minor Gods came. Oh, and of course there was Peter the beloved horse.
I wore an Aquamarine colored Greek tunic made out of silk. My hair was loosely braided and I wore a greek leaf-crown in the top of my head too. And Lawrence too wore a simple tunic and a leaf crown.
We started the ceremony when the sun was about to set. As the warm yellow-orange citrine sun light gleamed, dazzling the whole forest, our friends stood around us, Lawrence made an vow,
" I, Lawrence Caerus hereby to take Undine as my wife, my love, and the only one who shall complete my life. I shall be her sun in the sky who gives her warmth, and the moon who shines through the darkest night. I shall give her protection, love and affection whether she's right or wrong. I swear each and every breath of my life, I shall love her with all my heart from now until forever and ever, until death do us apart."
tears of happiness fell down from my eyes through my cheek. Lawrence put the ring in my ring finger, and the ceremony was ended with a gentle kiss. And I'm officially Lawrence's wife.
The sun had set below the horizon, twilight turned to dusk, the forest was brighten with some lantern and fireflies. Our small gala was still held a little bit deeper from the lakefront. Whilst some were still dancing merrily, eating the feast, and chattering with others talkatively, Lawrence asked me to go with him.
He told me to close my eyes and then he guided me to a place where you can smell the scent of water and flower odor. He told me to open my eyes and I realized he took me back to the place where the flower arch stood, it looked different a little bit, the place become a dark saphire-colored with some white lines of the moonlight's reflection and stars blistered in the sky. The dew in the trees and flowers sparkled because of the moon light. The best night ever in my life.
Lawrence asked me for a dance, and of course I said yes. As the symphony of nature played, giving us a wondrous harmony, we waltzed near the lakefront, sharing each other our happiness. I loved him with all my heart, my soul and every breath that I have. He would be my one and only in my life, my soulmate, my love, my everything.
Time flew by, we stopped dancing, we stood and we stared at each other as some fireflies came, giving us small romantic lights. he whispered in my left ear,"After years I've been asking myself, what is my purpose living in this world, today I have the answer, I was born to tell you I love you" and I could only smile at him for a reply. Under the flower arch with many fireflies around us giving warmth, ecstatic feelings commingled with love, the night finally sealed with a passionate kiss.
