Chapter 7

Planning a wedding is a lot of work. I have been looking through magazines after magazines for weeks now. I still have no idea about any of it.

Screaming at the top of my lungs, I chucked all of my magazines and notes across the room. I’ve had it.

"ASHLEY!"

She comes running out the second bedroom, which we turned into a study, wondering what’s wrong.

"What’s wrong Spence?"

"What’s wrong is the planning of this wedding. I mean I asked you. Shouldn’t you be planning all this or something" I say as I run my fingers through my hair.

"Spence calm down. Okay. Listen I’ve been thinking about that. Why don’t we have a small ceremony on the beach wearing like sun dresses or something." Where was she three hours ago when I was pulling all my hair out like a mad woman.

"I love it" I pull her closer to me and place a kiss to her lips.

"Great! Now all you have to do is figure out who you want as your maid of honor, date, and guests." Well that shouldn’t be to hard.

"Billy is going to be my maid of honor. I also think we should maybe set a date sometime in the summer."

"See now your almost done. What about the guests?" I really don’t have anyone except for Billy. Maybe I can get a hold of my sisters. They would come right?

"I’m not sure. Who are you going to invite?"

"I have some family up north I was going to invite, but there will not be a lot since most do not agree with my life style choice" She put air quotes around that last bit and rolled her eyes.

"So what maybe a total of ten people give or take a few."

"At most. Your going to invite your sisters right?"

"Yes I’m going to try."

"Good. Tomorrow we go dress shopping."

"Wait. Who is going to be your maid of honor?"

"Um… My friend Tina from back home. I’ve been talking to her lately, and she said she was coming. Just to let her know when."

Ashley left after that. She went back to the study. I wonder what she is studying in there since school is out. My girl is really dedicated to her school work. I went and picked up my notes leaving the Bride magazine. I wrote down everything Ash and I discussed about what we wanted. I also made a guest list and a list of possible people to perform the ceremony.

After calling about ten different Justice of the Peace that turned me down with one excuse or another, I finally call the last one my list which was a notary of the public. I explained to her what we where looking for, and she agreed. I was so excited that we found someone instead of doing my happy dance in my hear. I was busting a move across the living room floor. It must of been funny because I stopped as soon as I heard laughing. I looked up to be met with brown eyes. She was leaning against the door frame with an amused look plastered to her face.

"Whatever. Your just jealous you can’t dance like me" She sort of nodded her head in the negative before agreeing with me.

"So why are you so happy?"

"Because I found someone to marry us!" I screamed in excitement.

"What are you serious?"

"Yes"

We where both dancing around now. I can’t believe I’ve almost planned everything out in one day.
