Kim's POV

The time flew by fast for today is my wedding day. I'm not nervous at all, but Austin will be when he sees the wedding dress that Layla designed. I love it. It is very sexy. And, so are the dresses for my bridal party. I love red and gold, so that is the colors I chose. Layla and Bliss' dresses are gold and is a different design than the dresses for Kam, Andrea, Carly, Noeli, and my brother's girlfriends.

And, the dresses for Braelyn and Día are adorable.

They both liked the sparkles, and I did too. Austin and Cris are going to love it.

"Kimmie, now that we have the dresses on, girl they are amazing! Ryan and Shane are going to drool." Bliss says as we all chuckle.

"They sure are, especially Shane. Girl, he could hardly contain himself as you walked down the aisle in April. His Nana Margie is hilarious! She already knew he was going to do that."

Kam, Andrea, Carly, Noeli, Niesha, Jazmin, and Ellie came in now.

I love this dress. And, no baby bump this time. I always shied away from red, but this is beautiful, Kimmie."

"Thanks, Kam. Red would look good on you."

My mom, Adrian, and Rachel entered.

"Let's make this Bridal party even sexier. Time to put on your dress." My mom and Rachel helped me with my dress.

Braelyn picked out my bouquet.

"Just beautiful. And, you have the figure for it. Austin is one very lucky man."

"Kathleen, you are going to be a grandma very soon. Kimona, you look gorgeous honey. You should give modeling a try. You and Bliss will be the highlight of every show and photo shoot."

"Thank you, Adrian. You are too sweet."

I didn't pick a veil because it is a hot, sunny day here in Miami.

"Let's go make our boys drool," My mom says as we all chuckle out of the room.

Austin's POV

"I will be coming out of this jacket at the reception. I'm glad the sun is shining and about to set, but man is it hot."

"Austin, you sure it isn't nervous beads of sweat?"

"Absolutely not. Today I get the woman of my dreams."

Shane adds, "Trust me, if I passed out at Bliss' dress, wait until you see Kim's. Their taste in clothes is the same."

"Gentlemen, the ladies are lined up and ready. Let's get started," Kim's dad mentions.

I was already standing where I need to be.

"Let's Get Married" was playing as the ladies walked out with their mates.

Kim's parents walked down the aisle first. Her dad then walked back because he is walking with her.

Then, my parents followed.

Now, here comes the guys. I'm going to laugh at each one of their reactions. First up is Ryan.

Ryan's POV

I waited at the top of the aisle for Layla. As soon as I saw her in her gold dress, I had urges that wanted to be filled right now. That dress hugs every inch of her body.

"Well, well, well. Sexy as ever."

"Wait until you see the red that I have for our 'after party.'"

Layla and I linked our arms as we started walking down the aisle. "Look at Austin laughing at us."

"I don't think so. He is laughing at your reaction." We made it down to the end. Layla and I gave each other a kiss. I walked over to Austin, and Layla went to her spot.

Shane is up next.

Bliss' POV

As soon as Shane saw me, his eyes went a darker shade of blue, which means lust. I had to hold in my laughter, but Austin and Ryan didn't hold in theirs.

"Shane, stop it with those eyes. It is hard trying to contain my laughter. I'm trying to be good."

"I can't help it. Do you know how red is flashed at a bullfight for a bull to charge? Well, that is how I feel - ready to throw you over my shoulder and charge right on inside the house. We are home you know."

Too late. I couldn't hold it anymore. I let it out. My stomach was hurting by how hard I was laughing. After about a minute or two, I finally composed myself. Shane and I linked arms and walked down the aisle.

As soon as we made it down the aisle, Shane leaned down, gave me a kiss, and pinched my tush. He then went to stand with Austin and Ryan. I went to stand with Layla.

Austin's POV

After Bliss and Shane, then came Kim's brothers - Marcus with Niesha, DeAngelo with Jazmin, and Jamal with Ellie. All three fellas had interesting expressions of lust on their faces and I laughed at each one of them.

And, it is all going to be on video.

Next was Cris with Kam, Mason with Andrea, Julian with Carly, and Noeli with Marco. They did the same thing as Shane.

Here comes one of my girls. Braelyn and Día are adorable in their dresses. She loves sparkles. Braelyn threw down red petals and Día threw white petals.

Everyone now stood up because here comes my bride. "Holy mother of pearl!!" Kim and her dad had their arms linked as she held her bouquet. "Brick House" by The Commodores came to my mind when I saw her dress.

Kim's dress hugged her curves like I am going to hug them and work them on our honeymoon. Oh my gosh, she did it - switched her way down the aisle. Killer smile, killer body and it is mine. I will be thanking Layla for that creation. Good night, and it is see through - at least her legs.

I glanced around the guests and saw some licking their lips and clearing of throats. They can do that all they want, but Kimona Nicole Winston is mine.

Kim's POV

"Austin sure is a little jumpy, sweetheart."

"I told him I was going to switch down the aisle. He wants to... Uh never mind."

"Yeah, thank you because I don't want to hear about the things he wants to do. I'm sure you both already did the deed. Don't answer that."

I sure wasn't going to tell him that we did.

"Thank you, daddy, for your love and supporting me on my journey. I couldn't have asked for a better dad."

"You're welcome, sweetheart. Even though you are grown, you will always be my baby girl. Always. Congratulations, sweetheart."

"Thank you, daddy." I tried not to shed a tear, but a few slipped out as we reached Austin.

Austin's POV

"Austin, take care of my baby girl." Kim gave her dad a kiss on his cheek. Then, he gave me Kim's hand as we walked up the two steps.

Sorry to everyone, but I had to get a peek at her 'asset' in this dress. And, I was not disappointed.

The wedding officiant spoke for about 30 minutes. Then, it was time for our vows.

Wedding Officiant - "Austin and Kim, it is now that time - time to say your vows."

Kim went first.

Kim's POV

"The first friends I made when I came to the United States was Jayson and Tina. Through them, I met Bliss. And, through Bliss I met Austin. Jay and Tina couldn't make it today, but we will make sure they get a copy of our wedding video. Thank you, Jay, Tina, and Bliss for helping me to meet the love of my life. You all are the reason that we have reached this special moment. As soon as we came down the steps at Bliss' penthouse, I knew I wanted to talk to Austin. I totally thought you were hot and was hoping you were single. I did my inner dance when you said yes." That got everyone to chuckle.

"A lot of women usually get turned off when a guy says they have a child. But not me. When you told me Braelyn was your daughter, I didn't have a problem because I love kids. I made sure that we included her on our dates because I never wanted her to feel left out. I love Braelyn like she was my own daughter. Now that we are getting married, I can't wait for us to have little Braelyn's running around our house. I love you very much, Austin David Mitchell. Thank you for choosing me to be your wife and partner for life. I vow to love you, cherish you, stand by you, be a supportive wife and mother to your children. This is my vow to you."

Austin's POV

"I too was thinking the same thing at the party and hoping you were single. I knew I wanted to date you as soon as I saw you coming down the stairs. But, because of a bad incident a little over two years ago where an ex hurt Braelyn, I had been cautious of dating. I did date Bliss for a little bit, but everyone, including myself knew that Shane was always the one for her. Over time I saw how you always wanted to include Braelyn in activities and I loved that. Braelyn loved it too."

"You are the light to my dark. You are the sunshine of my life. I also can't wait to have little brothers or sisters for Braelyn, and only with you. Thank you for coming into our lives. I love you very much, Kimona Nicole Winston. Thank you for saying yes to my proposal and becoming my partner forever. I vow to love you, cherish you, stand by you, be a supportive husband and father to our children. This is my vow to you."

Wedding Officiant - "Before we proceed, who is here to present the bride to Austin?"

Calvin stood up and said, "I do."

Wedding Officiant - "Secondly, is there anyone here who objects to Austin and Kim getting married?"

My parents and Kim's parents turned around. "I dare anyone in attendance to even think about raising their hand," Kathleen says before rolling her eyes and turning back around.

Wedding Officiant - "And now, Kim and Austin will exchange their rings as they say their I do's."

Kim passed her bouquet to Layla. Ryan then passed me Kim's wedding band.

"I, Austin David Mitchell take you, Kimona Nicole Winston, to be my lawfully, wedded wife

To have and to hold from this day forward, for better or for worse,

For richer or for poorer,

In sickness and in health,

To love and to cherish until death do you part."

Without hesitation, I took Kim's hand and placed the wedding band on her finger and said, "I do."

Now, Bliss passed Kim, my wedding band. And, she had tears streaming down her eyes.

"I, Kimona Nicole Winston take you, Austin David Mitchell, to be my lawfully, wedded husband

To have and to hold from this day forward, for better or for worse,

For richer or for poorer,

In sickness and in health,

To love and to cherish until death do you part."

Without hesitation, Kim took my hand and placed the wedding band on my finger and said, "I do."

The wedding officiant then proclaimed, "In front of this gathering before us, I now pronounce you, Austin and Kim, husband and wife. Austin, you may kiss your bride."

I sure did. I kissed my bride like there was no tomorrow. It was sweet, sexy, and sensual all in one.

After a long few minutes, we finally broke apart.

"May I now present to you Mr. & Mrs. Austin and Kimona Mitchell."

Everyone stood up and clapped for a few minutes.

"Thank you all for attending our wedding ceremony. For the sake of time, we will not have a receiving line. But, please enjoy the cocktail hour while my bride and I take our pictures."

Then, we walked down the aisle, and the bridal party followed. I held Braelyn's hand, and Kim held Día's hand. We found the perfect spot in Bliss and Shane's yard to take our pictures.

It was a beautifully, designed area.

We imposed a time limit for us to take pictures - 45 minutes. We took ours first, then group shots with everyone.

My favorite one was of me, Braelyn and Kim. So, I asked the photographer, "Can we get this one blown up into poster size and framed?"

"Yes, we can do that for you, Mr. Mitchell."

"Thank you." That one will go right above our fireplace on the mantel. Kim and I took pictures with her family. And, then with my family.

The last picture we took was of everyone. Every picture turned out beautiful.

"Let's go make our entrance."

Kim's POV

"I need to change into my dress for the reception first."

Everyone gave us a smirky look. "I promise, we will not take long. Austin can wait until later." I grabbed his hands and pulled him into the house with me.

Once we made it to the bedroom where my dress is, I went to grab it.

"You are going to have to unzip me. And, remember we have a promise to keep, Mr. Mitchell." As he unzipped my dress, he kissed my shoulder bone. That kiss sent chills down my spine.

"Boy, stop it. As much as I want to, we can't." I stepped out of my wedding dress. I turned around and his eyes were darker. "Be a good boy and hang my dress up."

He picked it up, but not before squeezing my butt. Then, he ran his hand down my back, giving me chills. Let me hurry up and get this dress on fast.

"Boy, go!" He had the puppy dog eyes as he walked to the closet. Bliss said we can come back after our honeymoon for our things.

My breasts are not by any means small, so I had a special strapless bra placed inside. Austin zipped up my dress.

"Let's go before we get in trouble. My parents are no joke when it comes to being on time."

"Dang." We then left the bedroom and went back downstairs.

"Good girl," My mom said as she saw us approaching everyone.

"Let's get it started!"

(I couldn't find one with red tablecloths)   
                                                 

MC: "Ladies and gentlemen, now introducing the wedding party. First up is parents of the bride, Mr. & Mrs. Kathleen, and Calvin Winston."

My mom and dad danced their way to their seats at the wedding party's table. We wanted everyone to dance in.

MC: "Introducing the parents of the groom, Mr. & Mrs. Rachel and Dylan Mitchell."

Rachel and Dylan did their dance, then went to sit with my parents. Our grandparents were already seated. Neither one of mine nor Austin's wanted to be introduced.

MC: "Next, the best man and matron of honor, Mr. & Mrs. Layla and Ryan Meyers."

Layla and Ryan did their dance and then went to the bridal party table. Austin went ahead and had Shane also as a best man since Bliss was my matron of honor also.

MC: "Next we have the best man and matron of honor, Mr. & Mrs. Bliss and Shane Landes."

Bliss and Shane did their dance and stood next to Layla and Ryan. Our family and friends knew who Bliss was. They gave Shane and Bliss an extra sweet ovation. They went through so much and now their relationship is better than it was before.

MC: "Up next is brother of the bride and his girlfriend, Mr. Marcus Winston and Ms. Niesha Smith."

Niesha and Marcus did their little Caribbean dance and then stood next to Bliss and Shane.

MC: "Brother of the bride and his girlfriend, Mr. DeAngelo Winston, and Ms. Jazmin Reed."

DeAngelo and Jazmin did their thing and went to stand next to Marcus and Niesha.

MC: "Brother of the bride, along with his girlfriend, Mr. Jamal Winston, and Ms. Ellie Williams."

Jamal and Ellie did their thing too and went to stand next to DeAngelo and Jazmin.

MC: "Next we have friends of both the bride and groom, Mr. & Mrs. Andrea and Mason Morris."

Andrea and Mason did their dance, then went to stand next to Jamal and Ellie.

MC: "Next we have friends of the bride and groom, Mr. & Mrs. Carly and Julian Sanders."

Carly and Julian did their dance, then went to stand next to Andrea and Mason. Julian and Carly are great to hang out with. And, they didn't make me feel like a third wheel. I'm going to miss them now that we live in Miami.

MC: "Next we have friends of the bride, Mr. & Mrs. Noeliani and Marco Fiore Sr."

Noeli and Marco did their thing. Quite a few of our family and friends knew who he was.

MC: "Next we have friends of the bride, Mr. & Mrs. Kamea, and Cris Fiore."

Cris and Kam did their thing. Oh my gosh, they are so great to hang with, especially Kam. And, their kids are just adorable.

MC: "And, this is just too cute. Flower girls for the bride, Ms. Braelyn Mitchell, daughter of the groom. And, Ms. Día Fiore, daughter of Cris & Kamea Fiore."

The girls threw white and red rose petals on the ground, then went to sit at the bridal table.

I gave Austin a quick kiss before we were announced. Thankfully we didn't get distracted when I went to change into my reception dress.

I am not a shy girl at all, so I have no problem showing off my body and curves. I did have another dress just in case Austin wanted me to change. He was okay with my dress.

MC: "Ladies and gentlemen, please rise for the King and his queen, Mr. & Mrs. Kimona and Austin Mitchell!"

We did our entrance dance to 'Pon de Replay' by Rihanna.

I love Rihanna's music. And, plus she is from Barbados.

"While the bride and groom do their first dance, dinner will now be served," The MC announced.

Austin and I are dancing to one of my favorite Jagged Edge songs, "Promise."

And, they were sweet enough to come and sing it, thanks to Mason.

"I have to thank Layla for your wedding dress. Thank goodness I had self-control. But this one now, will not last for long. I sure am one lucky man."

"Yes, you sure are. But, not as lucky as me. This is my fairytale wedding. Every woman wants a fairytale. Fortunately, I have mine. I love it and love you, Mr. Mitchell."

We kissed each other very passionately while on the dance floor. I'm sure the adults covered the kid's eyes. When we dance, they will cover them too.

Once Jagged Edge finished singing, Austin and I went to sit and eat.

We had dishes from both Barbados and the U.S. I even got Austin to try Flying fish and cou cou. I already know he likes the macaroni pie.

"So, do you like it?"

"Not so much the Flying fish and cou cou."

"Thank you for being honest." I don't ever expect Austin to like everything from Barbados.

"Mr. & Mrs. Mitchell, would you like something to drink," A waiter came over to ask us.

"Two glasses of Bajan Punch, please."

"Coming right up." Bliss heard me say Bajan Punch and asked Shane to get some for them.

"That was my mom's favorite drink. I absolutely love it." Shane and our waiter came back with Bajan Punch. I gave Austin a glass to try.

"This is good."

"Yes!" He likes the Macaroni Pie and Bajan Punch. We continued eating for a little while longer. I looked over to Bliss, Kam, and Layla. They all nodded at the same time. It's time for us to dance. My brother's girlfriends shook their heads no. That's okay.

I asked for the waiter to come over and told him to set up 7 chairs on the stage and gave him the songs to give to the DJ. Then, I told him to ask for the guys to come on stage. Can't wait. It's a surprise. None of the guys know about it.

The DJ nodded, then announced, "Will the following come on the stage and sit in the chairs?"

I saw Cris and Shane sighing, then giving Kam and Bliss the evil eyes. Those two are funny. I knew Austin would love this. He is already horny after what almost happened while changing into my dress.

"Austin, Cris, Shane, Ryan, Julian, Marco, and Mason." Austin grinned the whole way up to the stage.

Then, after a few minutes, we walked on the stage and stood in front of our husbands. Song number one came on.

Shane and Cris changed really fast when Kam and Bliss had them both grinning like schoolboys. We gave them the lap dances of a lifetime.

We went old school with the next two songs.

The ladies let me sing lead. We had the guys stand up, and we seduced them while dancing to the song.

The next one was also old school. Cris, Austin, and Shane were the horniest ones.

After the songs were done, we received a standing ovation and kisses from our husbands.

My hubby whispered, "All night long is right." Then, he winked and left the stage.

"There is one more dance before we open the dance floor. I will need Layla and Braelyn with me to do this."

The guys took the chairs as they walked off the stage. We danced to:

Everybody stood near the stage and danced. We heard everyone say, "Go Braelyn! Go Braelyn!" She did exactly like Layla, and I taught her.

Kam and Bliss were doing their thing in front of the stage. Layla and I saw tears coming from Austin's eyes.

After the song was over, Austin came on stage and picked up Braelyn in his arms. "Thank you, Layla."

"You're welcome, Austin."

Then, he gave me a kiss, and said, "Thank you for including Braelyn."

"You're welcome. She's my family now. Braelyn is very special to me."

My mom came over to the stage. "Cake cutting time, Austin, Kim, and Braelyn." The dance floor was open for everyone now.

"Before we cut the cake, I have a surprise for Braelyn."

We saw Ryan carrying a beautiful bouquet of flowers.

"Princess, here are some flowers just for you." Ryan then handed Braelyn the flowers Austin got for her.

"Thank you, daddy." Braelyn gave Austin a kiss on his cheek.

"You're welcome, princess."

All four of us walked off the stage and went to where our cake was.

The bouquets around the table are cake pops. That was Braelyn's idea and we loved it. I wanted to include Braelyn with everything at the wedding. So, I asked both Layla and Austin if it was okay to include her in cutting our cake. They both were okay with it.

Braelyn also picked out some cupcakes, chocolate of course.

While cutting the cake, 'Celebrate' by Pitbull came on.

"We need to cut the bottom first. That will be for Braelyn." The knife was long enough that all three of our hands could fit on it.

We counted to three and cut into the cake, which was half my favorite, and half Braelyn's favorite. Braelyn likes chocolate cake, and my favorite is red velvet. The icing was cream cheese icing. Neither one of us likes that nasty, sugary icing.

After Braelyn's piece was on a plate, Layla grabbed it. "Lollipop, come to the table to eat your cake."

Then, it was our turn. We cut a piece together from the top, one for each other. Just like Bliss and Shane, we skipped the plate and smashed the cake in each other's face. We gave everyone something to talk about - tongue and all. I love this man to pieces.

My dad was clearing his throat, but we did not stop until we were ready. We didn't finish until the cake was off our faces. "That was tasty."

Bliss handed us a few napkins to wipe what little was left. After we cut into the cake, we wanted to talk with Bliss and Shane.

"We wanted to say thank you so much for making this night special for us. I will never forget it." I started crying again. "This is the type of wedding that I always dreamed about but never thought it would happen."

"You're welcome, Kimmie. You both deserved it. Now, don't worry about your gifts. We will keep them here until you come back from your honeymoon. So, go ahead and do what we all are thinking, especially after we danced."

"Austin, you are going to have to carry me because these shoes are coming off."

He scooped me up really fast. "That won't be a problem. Thanks again, Bliss and Shane. We will come back in three weeks."

We left our reception knowing that we had the best day of our lives and shared it with our family and friends.

Layla's POV

I'm happy for Austin and Kim. He finally has the love he deserves.

"Look at Austin and Kim bolting out of the reception." We all looked up from eating our cake and chuckled after my hubby said that.

"Each one of you guys did the same thing, so cut him some slack."

"We couldn't bolt, remember Layla?"

"Uh, right." Especially with the Jamaica ceremony.

"Not before the bouquet toss and garter toss," Shane added.

"Austin just did what you all should have done. Logan and the kids look like they are ready for bed. Thanks, Bliss and Shane for letting us stay here because I hate to get them in the car and then wake them up."

"You're welcome, Layla. We'll help bring the kids in the house."

Each one of us carried a kid and took them inside.

Well, it looks like The Merger is not going to be my business. The Merger is me with Ryan and Austin with Kim. We definitely will have one interesting family in the next chapter of our lives.
