The Wedding

Author's Note

I honestly have no idea how a wedding works, so I flubbed it a bit. This story might end up getting more chapters if you guys want. Also, it is a prequel, not a sequel.

And I added more description, okay.

It's been rewritten, but I have to finish formatting.

The Wedding

Fluttershy was sleeping peacefully, snuggled tightl
y in her blanket, when the door to her room thrust
open. Rarity came in, panicking slightly, as is wit
h her personality when she’s stressed.
“Sorry, Fluttershy darling, but I needed to wake yo
u now! We have to get you into your dress, because
today’s the big day!” Rarity exclaimed rather cheer
fully.
Fluttershy turned over, and looked over at her cloc
k which read 4:00 am, “I know, but do we have to
start so early?” Fluttershy moaned.
“Sorry, darling, but this is very important. You’re
being married, after all! You’ll want to look good
for
your groom, wouldn’t you?”
“Um, okay, I guess...” Fluttershy admitted, “But, um...
why doesn’t Braeburn need to wake up?”
“He’s been at the bachelor party. They just got hom
e earlier this morning; I saw them come in while I
was making sure your dress looked absolutely FABULO
US!” Rarity declared with a slight grin at the last
part of her statement.
“Well, I guess that makes sense...” Fluttershy mumble
d.
“Now, I’ve sized your dress to account for your bab
y bump, of course. But the design of the entire dre
ss
is as elegant as all the other dresses I’ve designe
d, possibly even more so than the ones I designed f
or
the six of us when we went to the Grand Galloping G
ala, or even Cadance and Shining Armor’s wedding!
Now, would you like to see my designs for your dres
s-“
Rarity was interrupted by Braeburn staggering into
the room. He had yet to shave, and he probably
needed a shower, but he was still ready for anythin
g.
“How’s mah lovely buttercup?” He said, nuzzling Flu
ttershy’s muzzle.
“Just fine, Brae. How was the bachelor party?”Flutt
ershy asked.
“Great! Spike, Big Mac, Whooves, and Thunderlane de
cided to hire some strippers, then Soarin got
smashed on cider, started to rambling on about how
he used to like Rainbow Dash, but that she wasn’t
paying him any mind. Then one of the strippers deci
ded to give Spike a-”
“Ahem.” Rarity interrupted with a look of scorn on
her face.
“Shoot, Rarity, I’m sorry. I know you’ve taken a li
kin’ to Spike, but a dragon’s got his needs...”
“Needs I couldn’t meet?”
“I’m not gonna answer that. Well, I’m gonna get rea
dy, I’m ‘bout to get hitched. See ya, Sugarcube!” h
e
said, tipping his hat.
“I swear, I just don’t know him. Are you sure about
Braeburn, Fluttershy?” Rarity sighed.
“It’s not like you’re the one marrying him. I love
him, and besides, I’m carrying his foal.” said Flut
tershy.
Rarity smiled, and then walked into the kitchen. Th
e kitchen, like most of the house, was very nice an
d
neat, considering that Fluttershy often took care o
f multiple animals and needed it to look nice to
appeal to the animals.
“Let’s have some coffee, and then we’ll get started
. If I remember correctly, you take sugar and milk?
”
Fluttershy nodded as Rarity started the pot.
____________________
Fluttershy drank the last of her coffee as Rarity w
as washing her own cup.
"So, let’s begin applying the makeup, and then I'll
do your mane.” said Rarity, clapping her hooves.
Rarity began putting makeup on Fluttershy, talking
to Fluttershy and also talking about the makeup as
she applied it.
“So, I heard that Rainbow Dash was- let’s put a bit
of blush, but not too much- flirting with Soarin’
and
apparently- a little bit of lipstick, some rogue, a
nd then some mascara- she’s somewhat interested, bu
t
she wants him to make the first move.” Rarity gossi
ped as she applied the various makeups.
“That’s interesting. Honestly, I think that if Rain
bow Dash really cared, she would make the first mov
e.”
said Fluttershy as Rarity began putting up Flutters
hy’s mane.
“Well, she said she doesn’t want to appear desperat
e. I can understand that,” said Rarity as she put t
he
finishing touches on Fluttershy’s mane. “What do yo
u think of your mane and makeup, Fluttershy?” said
Rarity, turning Fluttershy towards the mirror.
Her mane would fit her dress design well, as her ma
ne was very beautiful. It practically sparkled,
probably due to some addition to her mane by Rarity
. Her face was only covered in modest makeup, but
it was enough to make her look absolutely beautiful
. The blush Rarity had applied only helped her pull
off her shy, kind, and quiet look even more.
“Oh, Rarity, it’s perfect! Thank you.” Fluttershy s
queed.
“You’re welcome, darling. Let’s get on your dress.”
Fluttershy was soon ready for the wedding and in he
r dress. They still had a while, so they decided to
sit
and chit chat before heading to the ceremony.
*****
Braeburn, meanwhile, was getting into his suit, wit
h Big Macintosh, his best colt, helping him.
“Thank you kindly, Mac. I’ve tried, but no matter w
hat, I just can’t tie my darn tie right.” Braeburn
complained.
“It’s not a problem, cousin.” said Big Macintosh.
graciously offered the castle up for the wedding. Apple family members were on one side, and Fluttershy’s friends and family were on the other.
Off to the left side were the three bridesmaids:Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, and Applejack, all wearing Rarity's handmade dresses that were designed tomatch. The groomsmen, Soarin, Big Macintosh, and Thunderlane stood by Braeburn’s side, each wearing similar handmade suits that were, once again, courtesy of Rarity. Twilight cleared her throat, and the ceremony began.

“Mares and Gentlecolts, today we are gathered for the union of two ponies: Braeburn and Fluttershy. They have come together to be united as mare and stallion. State your vows.”

“I don’t think this is how a wedding is conducted...” Lyra whispered to Sweetie Drops who swiftly shushed her.

Fluttershy cleared her throat. “I promise that through sickness and in health, for better or for worse, I shall love for, care for, and cherish Braeburn eachand every day for the rest of my life.” Fluttershy vowed.

“I promise that no matter what happens, no matter the severity, I will take care of our family until death does us part.” Braeburn pledged.

“Do you, Braeburn, take Fluttershy as your wife?”

“I do.”

“And do you, Fluttershy, take Braeburn as your husband?”

“I do.”

“I now pronounce you mare and stallion. You may kiss the bride.”

Braeburn leaned in and kissed her softly, in a kiss that lasted only a moment, but it was a moment neither would ever forget.
____________________
It was shortly after the reception when Fluttershy and Braeburn made it back to the cottage, which was getting a room added on for the child. Other than the area being reworked, the house was quiet and spotless.

“You know, what are we going to name the foal, anyways?” asked Braeburn, taking off his suit as Fluttershy was finishing getting ready for bed.

“Well, it should be based off of either apples, or nature. And the doctor said it's a filly!” replied Fluttershy, beaming at the last part.

“I'm so happy I could eat my hat! On names however, I like the nature idea. There are only so many apple related names out there... I’d like a name related to... Uh... Grass. A name that screams nature and beauty... Something that comes from the plains of Appleloosa to the Everfree forest, a name that would be honored almost anywhere...”

“Well, how about Sweet Grass?”Fluttershy suggested,snuggling into the sheets.

“You know what? That sounds like a good idea.” said Braeburn as he kissed Fluttershy with a burning passion, one that would never fade, not until the end of time.
