“(You’re trustworthy.)”
He took Elisha’s hand and laid it on my hand. I felt Elisa’s fingertips tremble slightly.
My heart felt like it would explode too.
Clap clap clap clap! clap clap clap!
Applause poured in.
Tears welled up in Alice’s eyes.
Is it because of fear? Is it because of joy?
I was really curious.
You’re really mine now
[(There will be an officiating speech by former President of the United States, Aaron Diggs.)]
Holding Elisa’s hand tightly, they turned their bodies toward the podium together. Aaron Diggs defeated the bodyguards and climbed onto the podium.
I felt an aura that was difficult to express in words from people who had the power to attract people. Aaron Diggs, like Seol Kyung-taek, also had a unique aura.
He grabbed the mic and opened his mouth.
[(I am delighted to be officiating at the wedding of two wonderful people who are running towards a bright future on such a good day.)]
Aaron Diggs smiled and met our eyes. He then looked at the guests and continued talking.
[(Marriage is a noble contract in which two people form a family and create a new history. The two will trust and depend on each other from now on…)]
The officiating speech continued, but my nerves were more focused on Elisha than officiating. What does her trembling hands mean?
maybe he’s crying
Fear of separation from family and starting a new family. Or maybe anticipation filled her head.
‘I’ve already tried it once, so it’s okay, but Elisa-san’s head must be very complicated.’
Although he met a strange woman and even divorced him, he seemed to be able to create a wonderful family with Elisa. It was clear that if I lost her, I would never meet such a wonderful woman in my life who would embrace my past and even Ha-yeon.
As if her trembling had been transmitted, the corners of my eyes also began to get wet.
Thank you.
[(Even in difficult times, if you think of each other first and work hard for the other person, your family will be filled with peace and happiness.)]
A life that puts family first.
A life in which I do not think only of the hardships and consider others first.
I thought I could become such a wonderful man if I was with Elisa, who takes care of me and takes care of Ha-yeon.
He held her trembling hand tightly.
Her tremors subsided.
[(I sincerely wish that the future of the two will be filled with peace and happiness. First, there will be a wedding vow from the groom.)]
I was nervous at the thought of getting married in front of so many people.
‘If I hadn’t eaten Woohwang Cheongsimhwan, I would have been in big trouble.’
I gave one to Elisa, but I don’t know if she ate it.
I took a deep breath and opened my mouth.
“(I, Kim Jae-gu, have married Elisha and will always love and respect Elisha no matter what the circumstances. From today until death separates us, in good times, in hard times, in good health, in sickness, as a true husband, I will do my best to make a happy family. I swear to achieve.)”
Elisha struggled to smile through her tears.
[(Followed by the bride’s wedding vows.)]
“(I, Elisha, who welcomed Kim Jae-gu as her husband, love and respect her always, no matter what the circumstances. From today until death separates us, in good times, in hard times, in good health, in sickness, as a true wife, I will do my best to make a happy family. I swear to achieve.)”
[(Groom Kim Jae-goo and bride Elisha made a firm oath to be together for the rest of their lives in front of both families, relatives, and numerous guests.
Accordingly, I solemnly declare in front of you that the two have become a couple to be together for the rest of their lives.)]
Clap clap clap clap! Clap clap clap!
“(Waaa!!)”
There was a lot of applause and cheers. Elisa smiled and looked at me. Her makeup smudged a little from her tears, but she was still charming.
The moderator handed over the marriage application documents. The papers were signed by Aaron Diggs, the officiant. Elisa and I each signed next to our names.
[(With this, the two of you have become a couple. Please exchange rings with each other as an oath for marriage.)]
Im Han-ul walked over to me and Ha-yeon gave the ring to Elisa. At first, it was supposed to be delivered by a bridesmaid, but during rehearsal, the role changed when Ha Yeon-yi took on the role of a flower child.
I put the ring on her hand first.
The ring, which looked good on Elisa’s slender finger, glowed beautifully in the sunlight.
“(I’ll make sure you don’t regret choosing me.)”
“(yes.)”
Elisa held out her palm. I gently put my hand on top of her palm, and she put a ring on my hand.
Compared to Elisa’s slender, white fingers, I felt ashamed of my rough hands.
she looked up at me
“(I’ll do better too.)”
Elisha’s cheeks turned red.
Aaron Diggs came down from the podium, and the host went up again. As he exited, the guests applauded.
The presenter took the microphone.
[(Then share the kiss of oath.)]
Elisa’s face turned red.
As I practiced in rehearsal, I hugged Elisa by the waist and pulled her towards me. Elisha hugged my neck and brought my face closer.
I put my lips on top of hers. He inhaled deeply the scent of Elisha.
After an intense but brief kiss, we faced each other. Elisa’s face turned red.
Embarrassed, she smiled softly.
I smiled too.
[(Please give a lot of applause for the bride and groom’s bright future.)]
Music started playing.
It was now time to leave.
Holding Elisa’s hand tightly, they walked along the Virgin Road together. The way to leave was the way to face the guests, so we were able to make eye contact.
I greeted the guests and slowly walked down Virgin Road.
Behind us, the bridesmaid and groomsman paired up behind us.
Elisa whispered softly.
“(It’s like a dream.)”
“(It can’t be a dream.)”
Warm sunshine and countless blessings.
It was a very happy day.
But this was not the end.
In Korea, if you eat a buffet after the ceremony, in the US, there is a reception. It was a much more serious place than Korea as it was a place that combined an after party and a meal.
While the reception was being prepared, I took a photo with the parents and sent them to the reception area first.
After waiting for Elisa to change into a simpler dress, we headed to the reception area with her. The reception was supposed to be held by the beach.
It was getting closer to dinner time, and the sun was starting to go down. Colorful and wonderful lights embroidered the beaches of Lanai Island nicely.
I remembered that Elisa had said that she wanted to propose surrounded by people overlooking the sea.
‘Wasn’t that a thoughtful word?’
I was sorry that I seemed to have broken her romance by guessing.
He held Elisa’s hand tightly and entered the venue. It seemed that almost all the guests I had seen during the day were still there. Applause poured out along with cheers like thunder.
“(Thank you everyone.)”
We moved to the bride and groom’s seat located in the center. On both sides were the parents of both families.
The moderator was not visible.
Everyone’s eyes were focused on me and Elisa.
‘What should I do?’
There was nothing prepared for the reception.
Looking at Elisa, she was smiling strangely.
Doo doo doo doo!
Suddenly, the wind started to blow with a loud noise. A small helicopter was flying towards this place. A familiar voice came from the air.
[(Hello everyone! I’m Della Foster, who is hosting today!)]
She jumped out of the helicopter.
Screams erupted from the guests as Della Foster suddenly jumped out of the helicopter.
“(Kyaaagh!)”
But she landed lightly on the floor and stroked her back once. A few cords of thick wire were tucked under the helicopter.
‘Live wire action…’
No matter how many wires there were, it was something that could not be done with normal courage. I guess you have to have this level of courage to become a world-class pop singer who performs numerous performances.
She opened her mouth in a lively voice.
[(Sorry to surprise you. But since it’s a wedding for special people, I wanted to prepare a special performance.)]
The buzzing sound died down.
[(First of all, I will sing a song for the two of you. The title is beyond anywhere. I dedicate this song hoping that the hearts of the two will be connected wherever they are.)]
She took off the microphone she was wearing and took a deep breath.
As Della Foster’s sweet voice filled the venue, people held their breath and focused on her song.
Because it wasn’t common to have a chance to listen to a Billboard singer’s song live rather than a microphone. There was charm in her live performances.
Della Foster came out and sang, looking at Elisa. Elisha put her hands on her chest and watched the performance with a moved expression.
[(You can feel it no matter where you are. Because our hearts are connected. You can believe it wherever you are. Because our hearts are one.)]
It was like a song for Elisa and me, who will be living in different spaces. After the chorus came out, Elisa held my hand and looked up at me.
He held her hand and met her gaze.
It seemed like the timing for a kiss, but since there were adults on both sides, I decided to put up with it.
[(I sincerely wish that the future of the two will be filled with only good things. We are still friends after we get married, right?)]
Della Foster asked in her characteristic playful tone. Elisa looked at me and nodded slightly. It was a vessel that could not be compared to a woman who caused a game just by mixing words with a woman.
“(Sure.)”
[(You can’t say ‘of course’ here. Bride. Hit the groom once. Now, only the bride can hit the groom, right?)]
Elisa laughed and tapped my forearm. The laughter of the guests filled the venue.
[(Next, we will listen to the best friend of the bride and groom.)]
Lim Han-ul took the microphone.
[(Hello. I’m Lim Han-ul, the best man of groom Kim Jae-gu. Jae-gu is a really great guy. Ever since he was young, he’s had the personality to see the end if he gets stuck in something. I think he was able to get such a pretty bride thanks to you. Congratulations, Jae-gu. ! Be sure to be happy. If I had known that the two of them matched so well, I would have introduced them 8 years ago.)]
Elisa covered her mouth and laughed.
“(If I had seen it then, I wouldn’t have been able to talk to Elisa-san.)”
[(Ah. That’s right. You weren’t good at English at that time.)]
The guests burst into laughter.
[(After having a pretty girlfriend, my English skills improved so quickly. As expected, I have a personality that sees the end when I stick to one thing. Elisa. Jaegu is a really good and consistent guy, so please take care of me.)]
“(of course.)”
She smiled and crossed her arms at me.
Starting with Hanul Lim’s congratulatory speech, congratulatory speeches from the bridesmaids and parents continued. My parents all said good things. What my father said was conveyed by an interpreter.
The father’s image seemed to have improved by using the luxurious term.
The congratulatory speech ended with Seol Gyeong-taek’s congratulatory speech.
[(Now that the congratulatory speech is over, let’s start the exciting dance time. Please come to the bride and groom first!)]
To the cheerful music, he danced a dance that matched Elisa’s harmony. The applause of the guests poured in, and the photographers moved their bodies hard to film the video.
[(Now together!)]
Everyone got along and danced. The atmosphere heated up thanks to the accompaniment with the meal while listening to the congratulatory speech.
***
It was a difficult but enjoyable wedding.
After having a drink with the guests who came from afar, it was hard to wake up the next day because of the hangover.
‘Ugh. It’s the head…’
But I had to get up.
The honeymoon on Bora Bora Island was scheduled to begin today.
Elisa was lying on the bed next to her, still blind. He hadn’t even removed his makeup because he had been greeting guests and playing all night.
‘Now you really have become my person.’
Marriage registration in the US has also been submitted. Because he said he would submit the documents written at the wedding to the court through personal service.
He brushed Elisa’s hair back and kissed her on the forehead. Elisa then opened her eyes with difficulty and tried to raise Booth up.
“(It’s okay. You can sleep more.)”
Elisa, who got up, stretched for a long time. Then he stretched out his arm and hugged me.
“(It’s a honeymoon from today, so I have to get up.)”
She lightly kissed the nape of my neck. A shudder ran through my whole body. It was to the extent that I wanted to spend time in my room instead of going on my honeymoon.
But reason won.
Elisa rose from her seat.
“(Ah. On Bora Bora Island with Mr. Jaegu…)”
Elisa raised the corners of her mouth with a mischievous smile. He approached her quietly and asked.
“(Something on the island of Bora Bora?)”
“(Don’t tell me.)”
She smiled mischievously and took a step back.
“(Tell me.)”
“(I don’t like it. See for yourself.)”
take a picture One, two, three!
Bora Bora Island, located in Tahiti, is one of the most popular honeymoon destinations along with the Maldives in Korea because of its beautiful natural scenery.
The place we used was a luxury resort newly built this time. Unlike other accommodations where two people can comfortably enter, it was a two-story building with two bedrooms.
All sides are made of panoramic windows, so if you remove the blinds, you can see the cool view of Bora Bora Island.
Room service was a system that could be done by phone or message.
If you leave a menu and time, they come and set it up at that time.
“(Does it look prettier because I come with Jaegu? Or is the island prettier?)”
“(Maybe both?)”
Now that I’m in the dorm, I don’t have to look at others. Since the glass was coated with a material that was hard to see from the outside and clearly visible from the inside, there was no need to worry about other people’s eyes.
Elisa hugged her and kissed her deeply. Her delicate hands lifted my clothes.
