*October 10, 1980*
The rehearsal dinner ( which includes pre-shenanigans) for (Y/N) and Andy's wedding!
(Y/N)'s POV:
Today is our dinner rehearsal and I am so excited. I can't believe tomorrow is our wedding day. Karen, being the maid of honor, has been so helpful in the planning of everything.
"(Y/N)! Is your dress ok for the rehearsal? Does it have any wrinkles?" Karen asked nervously.
"Karen calm down girl! The dress is fine. Everything is perfect," I told her, trying to calm down.
"I just want everything to be perfect for you! This is your wedding week and everything needs to be absolutely a fairytale," Karen told me while she pinned her hair back.
"Karen, nothing is ever perfect. But you have gone above and beyond and done an amazing job being the maid of honor. Why do you think I chose you?" I told her.
"Aw (Y/N)! Thank you for saying that. I am just trying to make you proud," Karen told me.
"Now let's go find Andy and see what he is up to," I told her.
I went to the bathroom in mine and Andys hotel room and found him fixing his suit and tie.
"Ooooh you look wonderful love," I told him.
"Darling you look smashing," Andy told me while he fixed his tie.
"Thanks love. You always know how to make me blush," I told him.
Then, we both noticed a flash.
"Sorry I want as many pictures for your guys wedding album I'm getting the little moments," Karen told me smiling.
We just smiled at her.
Then, we heard a knock at our door.
Karen answered the door for us and it was Andy's brothers, Linda and Lesley.
"HELLOOOOOOOO LOVEBIRDS," Maurice loudly exclaims.
"Where are you two?" Lesley asked.
"They are finishing getting ready geez," Karen told them while snapping another picture.
"Yes we are finshing up getting ready my crazy in laws," I said stepping out to the room.
"Oooh looking fierce (Y/N)!" Linda says smiling.
"Thanks sissy! " I said while greeting each of them.
"Mum and dad are going to meet us there," Lesley told Barry.
"Ok can I get the same reaction from my brothers on my suit and tie?" Andy said laughing.
"Oh look at you Andy. That tie, that hair! Oh the leather patent shoes!" Maurice says laughing.
"Yeah Andy you are fierce!" Robin said laughing and joining in the fun.
"Well the baby Gibb is all grown up in his suit and tie," Barry said patting Andy on the back.
"Now I feel so much better thanks guys," Andy said laughing.
"Are we all ready to go?" Barry asked.
"Yes I'll ride with Richard and Herb to the rehearsal," Karen told us as she grabbed her purse and camera.
We all headed down to the cars and rode to the venue for the rehearsal dinner.
Andy held my hand the entire time of the car ride.
We arrived at the venue and all piled out and shuffled inside.
Somehow Karen and Rich had gotten here before us and Karen was doing her maid of honor duties.
"I've talked to the wedding planner Grant is already directing guests for you guys and making sure everyone sits at the correct table placements," Karen told me.
"Oh that's great thank, you so much girl!" I told her.
"Hello lovebirds!" Grant, our wedding planner greeted us.
"Hi Grant! How are you?" I asked him.
"I am FABULOUS!" he told me and Andy.
"Where do we need to go?" Andy asked Grant.
"Well we are going to practice your entrance as a married couple for the first time," Grant told Andy.
"Ok awesome where should we go?" I asked Grant.
"You guys come over here till we have everyone seated," Grant told us.
"Ok thanks Grant," Andy said while grabbing my hand and following Grant.
"I've got butterflies," I whispered to Andy.
"Don't worry darling I do too. Imagine if I trip walking in," Andy said giggling.
We waited for Grant to give us the signal to walk in.
"Now for the first time, I proudly introduce Mr. and Mrs. Andy Gibb," Barry announced in the microphone.
Grant pointed to us and we walked arm and arm linked in.
"THERE'S MY GIRL!" Karen yelled half way across the room.
I smiled and waved at everyone and waited for further instruction from Grant.
"Ok now you guys can sit down and we will have the best men do a run through of their speech," Grant told us.
Barry, Robin and Mo stood up with their glasses.
"First off, (Y/N) and Andy, we want to congratulate you both on a beautiful union," Barry started.
"You both fit together like puzzle pieces," Robin said.
"And you guys are like wildflowers and contiune to grow and love one another," Mo said.
"We love you both and can't wait to see what the future holds," Barry said.
"Just make sure mum and dad get some more grandkids," Mo joked.
"To (Y/N) and Andy! Mr. and Mrs. Andy Gibb, " Robin shouted.
"To (Y/N) and Andy!" everyone shouted.
We were both blinded by all the camera flashes going off but kept smiling as we knew this was just the begninng to a beautiful new chapter in our life together.
