A Ponyville Wedding
6. The Day Is Ours!
Previous ChapterNext ChapterToday was the big day—the day for which the both of us had been waiting ever since we met for the first time.
It was our wedding day!
Fluttershy had already chosen her best mare, and I had selected my stallion of honor.
Both of those ponies were listening in on us, ready to write down our every word.
Zecora, the officiant at our wedding, gave the introduction:
Pony folks, we’re here to celebrate
An ancient ritual to banish hate.
Marriage, as by ponies it is known,
Shall forge a union far stronger than bone.
Next, she gave each of us a wedding ring to wear on the left front hoof.
With these rings shall one wed the other,
And like a sister and a brother,
A family shall they begin;
Affinity comes from within.
To every vow I read to you,
Should you agree, please say, “I do.”
We agreed to all the marriage vows, which Zecora read from the script prepared for her.
Finally, she read the last line on the script:
Stallion and mare I pronounce you, and this
Ends the ritual, so now, you may kiss.
We kissed each other on both sides of the muzzle—once per side.
We had become a lawfully-wedded couple.
