The venue for the wedding was at Palace Hotel, located at the heart of the city. they used the garden of the hotel as the wedding venue. The place was decorated beautifully according to how Brenda wanted it.
They invited just a few people because they wanted a private wedding. They only gave out about 20 invitation cards so that the venue will not be congested.
The food that was to be prepared was supervised by Kristine and Jenny according to Brenda's request. She had always wanted her wedding menu to be planned by her friends and it was finally coming true.
Chloe who was the main bridesmaid wore a silver colour gown with jade pendant that Collins had given to her.
Inside the dressing room, everything was perfect. The makeup artiste was busy making up Brenda's face while her assistant was working on Chloe. They two looked really beautiful.
'I can't believe a day like this is finally here'' Kristine said as she and Jenny walked into the room after they were done with the snacks.
'You two are finally here. hurry, quick, go in and change'' Chloe said to them.
'Whoa, you two look splendid'' Jenny said.
'We could have had a wedding together but your silly ass doesn't want that'' Brenda said to Jenny.
'No, I don't want a wedding. A court wedding suits me more'' Jenny replied. She and Kody had already talked about this. she didn't want a wedding. What mattered to her was that they were legally married and were together. the wedding could come after they were more secured in their lives.
'What about you, Kristine?'' Chloe asked Kristine.
'Well, I will go with Jenny. Ronald and I are just going to register our marriage after we meet with his family next tomorrow. Right now, a wedding doesn't thrill me anymore''
'I don't care. I want a wedding like Brenda's'' Chloe said.
'That's why you are my bridesmaid. Don't worry, Collins will make sure you have the most beautiful wedding ever'' Brenda said and patted Chloe's shoulder.
'Right'' Chloe was satisfied.
'Jenny, let's go and get changed'' Kristine said and pulled Jenny who was sitting in the bed up. they went into the large walk-in closet to change.
At the men's dressing room.
Ronald, Kody and Collins wore the same colour tuxedos which was blue while Robyn wore a white tuxedo making him different from the others. They all looked handsome.
'Who would have thought Robyn will be the first to get married before me?'' Ronald said.
'I knew she was the one since the day I saw her. Brenda is amazing'' Robyn bragged.
'Whoa, look at how proud he sounds'' Collins said.
'Cousin, you should hurry up and get married before Chloe goes to school. You will have a lot of competition when she gets enrolled in your school'' Robyn said to Collins and the latter frowned.
'Should I let her take weekend classes instead? I won't get to spend time with her during the day. Seeing her only in the evening isn't enough for me'' Collins said and thought about it with a serious expression.
'He is teasing you, Chloe is not one to look at other men'' Kody said.
'Right, Chloe loves only me''
'Boys, everything is ready'' Miss Bel walked into the room and said to them.
'Aunt, how is Brenda? Is she also nervous?'' Robyn asked.
'She is nervous and excited. I just came after seeing her. Your parents and uncle are outside waiting. The officiating minister has also arrived''
'Alright, we will be out soon'' Robyn looked into the mirror once more.
.....
Once the men walked to the front, Robyn stepped on to the podium and waited excitedly for Brenda to also walk out. When he saw her in the middle coming with Chloe, Jenny and Kristine, he smiled broadly.
Kristine stepped aside and stood next to Ronald and Chloe and Jenny also did same, leaving Brenda as she walked on towards Robyn whose hand was stretched out he waited for her.
Brenda got closer and took his hand and he helped her unto the podium as everyone clapped their hands.
The wedding ceremony officially started with the officiating minister making his speech and then they were made to read their marriage vows.
Robyn took out a rather long paper that he had written his marriage vows inside.
'Dear Brenda, it took me the whole night to write this but the fact is, I don't know if this long letter is enough to show how I really feel about you. when we first met, I thought that you were beautiful but you had a nasty temper but surprisingly that didn't put me off. rather, I was curious about you. I was curious and I wanted to know what journey you took to become such a person. I was curious about what happened to make you such a person. Then, my curiosity developed into a feeling that I couldn't get rid of.
When I started studying you, I realised that you are the warmest person I've ever met in my life. Your tough nature was just a façade that you out up because of the things you had gone through.
The truth is, I don't know if I am capable of making you feel secure but I promise to live every day with the sole purpose of making sure that there is a smile on your face. I will kiss you every morning before we go to work. I will kiss you in the afternoon when we are on break and before we go to bed, I will kiss you.
Brenda, today going you are my wife and I am the proudest man on earth to have met you. You are beautiful inside out, always taking care of the people around you. now, it is your turn to be taken care of. I will forever love and cherish you for the rest of our lives''
Brenda's face was filled with tears as she looked at Robyn. She looked at the paper in her hands before she tore it apart and pulled him closer, kissing him deeply.
The audience gasped and clapped their hands. Kristine shook her head and turned to Ronald and smiled.
'Well, they already kissed before I could pronounce them husband and wife. So, I declare them married in the name of the Lord'' the officiating Minister said.
'You didn't even read me your vow'' Robyn whispered to her.
'I felt that my vows aren't enough to prove your essence in my life'' Brenda replied.
'What a beautiful comeback''
….
Outside the hotel, Kristine, Ronald, Kody, Jenny, Chloe and Collins hugged Robyn and Brenda before they got into their car. they waved at them as the car drove away. They were on their way to their honeymoon.
'Shall we go now?'' Ronald asked Kristine and she nodded her head before turning to Chloe and Jenny.
'I can't believe we are going our separate places'' Kristine hugged Chloe and Jenny.
'No matter what happens, we will always be together. Ronald, make sure you protect Kristine while you are in the capital'' Chloe said.
'I will'' Ronald replied.
'Kris, go and come back with good news'' Jenny said to Kristine.
'Sure. You two should take care of yourselves. I will call you when we get here. Kody, Collins, I will leave my darlings in your care''
'Sure. Take care too'' Kody said to Kristine.
'Let's get together when you return'' Collins suggested.
'Yes, let's do that'' Ronald agreed before taking Kristine's hand. They were going to the capital to meet his family.
Everyone got into their separate cars, driving away to their separate destinations.
The journey was while.

Many times I felt like dropping this book because it wasn't doing so well like my other books but whenever I see that you've read it, I get motivated and then I carry on. Thanks a lot for loving this imperfect author's work.
Hello everyone, this is Purplebride and I want to thank you all for sticking with me to the end. If you haven't already checked out my other books, make sure you do because they are also wonderful and heart fluttering.
Purple Romance has three different stories and each is a wonderful piece.
Bullet Heart has two different stories and they are quite a catch too.
The Witness; Hello My Love is more of a ghostly romance novel, so if you are into ghosts, then this will deliver the heart fluttering moments of a friend who tries to get revenge for the death of her best friend. But in doing so, what if she suddenly realises that she was on her way to redemption and that the world she lives in is actually one created by her subconscious mind? Well, don't let me bore you with spoilers but this one is sure to get you on your seat guessing what will happen in the next moment.
It has been wonderful being with you all till the end. Let's meet in another story. I love you so much dear readers.
