Chapter 27 - THE AUTUMN WEDDING
A month later, golden autumn leaves drifted gently through the air at the Vance private estate in Greenwich. A clear crystal marquee was set up on the expansive lawn, filled with white roses, twinkling fairy lights, and elegant classical music played by a live string quartet.
Lucas stood at the front of the altar wearing a classic black tuxedo, his heart hammering with immense joy as the wedding march began to play.
The crowd stood up in unison as Nataly walked down the aisle, looking like a vision in a hand-embroidered lace wedding gown with a long flowing veil. Holding her hands on either side were Liam and Noah, looking sharp in matching mini-tuxedos with burgundy bowties.
When she reached the altar, Lucas took her hand, his eyes shining with pure emotion as they looked into each other's eyes.
"We gathered here today to unite two souls who proved that true love can overcome any obstacle," the officiant announced warmly.
They exchanged their vows, promising to love, honor, and protect each other for the rest of their days. When Lucas slid the gold band onto Nataly's finger, a loud cheer erupted from the assembled guests.

"I now pronounce you husband and wife," the officiant declared with a bright smile. "You may kiss the bride!"
Lucas pulled Nataly close, kissing her deeply as white rose petals rained down over them in the autumn breeze.
