The sky was an endless blue. The crimson sun was slipping quietly into a slumber. The seagulls punctuated the silence with their occassional cackling to make sure their presence was felt. The plush green lawn of the Belle Mer was filled with wedding guests witnessing the wedding of M and V to the backdrop of the endless ocean. A ship with a smoking chimney promptly showed up at the exact moment of the wedding as the minister started the vows. The bride looked radiant in her white dress. The groom was dressed in white as well. They were flanked on either side by the bridesmaids dressed in classy grey evening gowns and the grooms men dressed in white and grey with a blue half sweater.
After the first set of vows, the minister gave way to G the grooms man. And G quoted lines that were also quoted 20 years ago when he got married to his wife J. The lines were from this story

One of the bridesmaids added a few lines as well. The minister continued then by explaining to the couple the significance of this moment in their life and gave advice to them for the road that lay ahead. As the minister finished the last of the vows, the ship which had been hanging around the harbour during the course of the wedding, set sail off into the sunset. Time was frozen just for a minute as the mind took a picture for posterity and two souls became one.
