Chapter 64 - WEDDING DAY!

Jieun gets up early that morning, take a shower with a variety of fragrances made from real flowers, having a breakfast, make her hair in half-braided up-do style flashing her creamy front neck, getting her makeup done, not too overwhelm but just right. 

After that, she is wearing a white fancy and dream wedding dress of her choice, fitting her perfectly showing her curves there.  The dress is equipped with crystal and flower appliqués which is not too much and making her beauty more stand up.  Her beautiful hair is now covered with the long veil. 

Lastly, she's putting on the expensive accessories that have been given to her by the Queen, too scared of losing them actually but today is the perfect day to wear that, and now she's finally done.

Today is her wedding day!

Seeing herself in the big tall mirror, she can't believe this is her, actually.  Even herself cannot deny that she is looking pretty right there.  The self praise making her cheek is red now, getting shy  herself all the sudden. 

Gaining her composure back, she sit down on the chairs waiting for the time to get out of the waiting room.

Today, she hasn't seen Eun-Woo at all since earlier this morning as he is getting ready in the other part of the castle where the other bachelor princes are living.

In the Dream Land, the groom cannot see the bride with their wedding gown until the ceremony.  Same goes with the some culture in the real world. 

Because of that, it makes Jieun wonder how the man will react later to her appearance?  Will he also think that she is beautiful?  Will he like what he saw?  It's not that important but a part of herself wanted to impress the man.  As if, it was involving her self pride.  And, she also wondered how the man would look later.  He, always look great anyway.  At least to her.  But, just thinking about that, making her heart feeling excitedly nervous.

Well, even she never dreams of getting married before, looking at her current situation, it seems like the words she has heard before become true which every girl is dreaming about their wedding day!  Unconsciously for her then.  Such a magical day.

The ceremony will be held for 24 hours, not meaning that they as a married couple need to attend all the hours, but for the people that come to have fun and hanging around the castle.

Jieun really hopes that everything will go smoothly today and nothing bad will happen.  Hopefully this marriage will get a lot of blessing from the guests who are witnessing.

"Why are you looking so nervous my lady?"  Ayana teased.

"I don't know, but I really am feeling so nervous now.  What should I do?"  Jieun said while shaking her both legs to the floor.  Just like a tantrum cute child.

"Just relax.  You will be just fine.  Once you're out there and looking at your groom you will not be focused on anything but him.  Believe me."  Princess Mia who just arrived in the room interrupted them.

"Are you also feeling nervous like Lady Jieun before, Princess Mia?"  Ayana curiously asks.

"Worst!  I even throw out before walking out of the room.  With my white dress."  Princess Mia recounted her experience.  No one can blame her then.  Her love story started out wrong until she is too nervous if her groom is running away at the time.  Luckily he's not then.  But not that she will admit that out loud to the girls there.

"Oh my!  How can you go through the whole day?"  Jieun surprised to hear that.  Hopefully she will be less nervous after this or maybe she will experience the same thing.

"You don't look like you're nervous that day Princess Mia.  You look so glowingly beautiful.  One of the most beautiful bride that I have seen in my entire life.  Including you my lady."  Ayana said earnestly.

"Aww ... You will be a beautiful bride also Ayana."  Princess Mia honestly said her mind while holding the girl arm for a while.

"As I said, after I saw Ethan in the aisle, my nervousness is gone just like a magic.  So, don't be nervous, take a deep breath and now, get up and start walking.  I bet Eun-Woo is the one that is feeling nervous now as you are not in there yet. "  Princess Mia rushing Jieun right now.  She is coming there to get her anyway. 

The wedding will be held on the main castle (south castle hall), where only the royalty, dignitaries, family members are there to see the marriage ceremony.

The people of the Dream Land will only get to see the bride and the groom when they will get out of the castle, ride in a chariot and go around the castle, greeting the people.  Just like a fairytale love story.  Only that, it is the true experience that Jieun will be faced.

Now, here she is.  Jieun is now standing outside the big main door of the hall on the left, and she could see Eun-Woo stands on the other side of the door on the right. 

Princess Mia was right.  After seeing Eun-Woo right then, her nervous feeling is long gone now. 

Meanwhile, Eun-Woo there cannot even close his eyes, seeing Jieun looking so breathtakingly beautiful there in front of him.  Make his heart can't feel calm, beating too fast there.  He cannot even express how he is feeling now.  Happy perhaps?

He suddenly feels so lucky to become the man that becomes her husband.  Even when he never thought before that she will become his bride.  But this fate, even it's not starting well, it brings them together and he will never questioning it, as he feeling so thankful.

Hearing the music inside the hall, both of them started to walk closer together.  Standing close, face to face now in front of the hall door.

"You're beautiful." Eun-Woo whispers.

"You also look good."  Jieun also whispering.  Eun-Woo with the royal attire has indeed always looked handsome in the eyes of hers. 

Now, both of them is smiling together.    Feeling so excited, yet awkward together now. 

Jieun puts her hand around Eun-Woo's arm and walk in together into the hall towards the King's throne.  Where the King and the Queen are waiting for them there, together with The 'Olderly', who is called like that there, as the person in charge of marriage in the Dream Land. 

They were walking in slowly as their rehearsal yesterday.  While looking to their left and right.  Respect the guests who are present.

After they got closer to the throne, both of them paid their respects to the King and the Queen before facing the Olderly.

"With the groom and the bride are finally here.  We will start the holy ceremony now!"  He said.

His assistant then opens the documents in front of Eun-Woo and Jieun, the documents are like a marriage certificate in the real world.  But before they are sealed it with their family crest,  the Olderly will started the speech.

"Do you Prince Eun-Woo of the Dream Land takes Lady Jieun to be your wife?"

"I do." Eun-Woo said without doubt.

"Do you Lady Jieun take Prince Eun-Woo to be your husband?"

"I do." Jieun also said in the same note as his.

The Olderly now points his hand towards the document presented in front of the bride and the groom, indicating that it is time for them to seal the document with their respective crest.

Both of them, Eun-Woo and Jieun do it simultaneously.

After that, the Olderly with all smiling face now state that,

"I now pronounce you as the husband and wife."  Making everyone there applauds happily celebrating the newlywed couple. 

Both Jieun and Eun-Woo is now looking at each other, stood face to face in happiness to exchange their wedding ring.  After the exchange both of them continue to greet the King and the Queen in the throne. 

The King took out something from his side.  Looking like a scroll in a gold color and assigning it to Jieun.  That was the conferment of rank to the girl who is now part of the royal family.

"Here I, The King of this Dream Land, present to the whole world, Princess Jieun of Dream Land!"  King Liam said it out loud proudly.  Making everyone in the hall get up from their seats and pay their respects to Jieun, their new princess.

Facing the audience now, Jieun finally can see Granny Susan there in the verge of tears looking happily towards her.  Making her, is also trying very hard to control her feeling.  She can't cry and ruin her make up didn't she?

As if knowing what was going on, Eun-Woo holds Jieun hand now.  Want to lend her a strength, then if possible.  And Jieun's view now shifts to him.  Full of meaningful insights there. 

"Thank you.."  She said.
