Chris rolls over and groggily opens his eyes. He looks at the clock and yawns. It then occures to him what today is and a grin spreads across his face. He sighs happily. 
Chris: Today I marry the most wonderful woman in the world. Yes Ramsey you are a lucky one. 
Chris gets out of bed happily and as he begins getting ready for the day he whistles to himself. Once showered and shaved he goes for some breakfast. 
Chris: Last time I'll be eating breakfast alone. 
He smiles and raises his ornge juce glass 
Chris: Goodbye to the single life may it never come again. 
He chugs the juce. Then gets up goes to check his messages. He has several so he opens his desk dwar to get a pen out and a picture of Julie stairs up at him. He sighs sadly as he pics up the picture. 
Chris: Hello there my sweet. 
He lightly coresses it. 
Chris: No I haven't forgotten you, I never will. 
He stairs at it a minute longer then quicky puts it down and scribles a note to Eve who is his best person grabs his keys and runs out the door. 

Scott rolls over in bed expecting to find Eve but finds an empty place instead. He opens his eyes and looks around 
Scott: Eve? 
Eve walks in with her bathrobe on 
Eve: Hey Scotty. 
Scott: You're up early 
Eve smiles leans down and kisses Scott 
Eve: Well I am the best person, I have to get over to the pent house and help Chris get ready for his big day. 
Scott sighs 
Scott: Ah yes today he become my son in law. 
Scott makes a face Eve laughs 
Eve: Hey knock it off you know you like Ramsey 
Scott throws his hands up in the air and plops back against the pillows 
Scott: I plead the fith 
Eve laughs. 
Eve: Well you better not act like that infront of Karen. You know how she is when it comes to Chris. 
Scott chuckles 
Scott: She makes me look like a push over 
Eve: To say the least. 
They laugh 
Eve: I remember when I anounced where our wedding was going to be. I thought she was going to strangle me 
Scott shakes his head 
Scott: You know if you had told me a year and a half ago that my daughter and Ramsey would be getting married I would have laughed in your face 
Eve nods 
Eve: I know it sertenly wasn't something forseable. You know it's funny how life works. Had Chris not blamed me for Julie's death, he wouldn't have pushed me away, if he hadn't of pushed me away I wouldn't have asked Karen to help, and had I not asked Karen to help 
Scott: They probubly would never have hoocked up. 
Eve: And God only knows what Joe would have succeded in doing 
Scott shakes his head 
Scott: I don't even want to think about that. 
Eve sighs 
Eve: I know. 
Scott: You know I am glad Karen has someone who loves her so much and all but I still am steemed over the way he treated you after Julie's death. 
Eve sighs 
Eve: Scott do you remember how you acted towards me after Serena's accident? 
Scott squirms 
Scott: Well, well yeah but that that was different. I mean, I was I was angry, and scared, and and I didn't have all the facts. 
Eve nods 
Eve: And Chris was the same way. He was angry, scared, depressed, didn't have all the facts and like you needed to blaim someone. 
Scott sighs and shakes his head 
Scott: You win 
Eve smiles 
Eve: As always 
They laugh 
Scott: So when did you first realize they were falling for each other? 
Eve thinks back with a smile on her face 
Eve: The day Joe tried to drug Karen. I mean I had noticed the closeness but really thought it was just friendship up untill that point. When Karen hit me during our pretnd fight I realized that she cared about him alot, but it wasn't until I saw Chris's concern over finding Karen and stopping Joe that it clicked that their was more then friendship going on. 
Scott nods 
Scott: There love blossemed quickly that's for sure 
Eve shrugs 
Eve: Sometimes that's the best way. Well I don't mean to leave you up here alone but I need to finesh getting ready and get over to Chris's. Speaking of which you'd better get up soon to. You have a daughter to walk down the ile you know 
Scott: Well, I just might need a little inspiration for that. 
He smiles at Eve devilishly Eve laughs and walks over to him leans in and kisses him pationatly. Scott tries to pull her in but she pulls back 
Eve: No sorry Baldwin we have a full day and I can't be late. 
Scott groans and falls back into the pillows 
Eve: But if you're a good boy we can have some fun tonight 
Eve winks at Scott as seh leaves the room. Scott smiles and shakes his head as he gets up. 

Karen slowly walks though the semitairy. She looks around at all the fallen leaves which have covered the semitary like a blanket of colors. She shivers a little in the morning cold and pulls her coat a little closer. around her being careful not to drop the flowers she's holding. She goes over to Julie's grave and kneels down infront of it. 
Karen: Hey there stranger. I know I haven't come in here in quite sometime. 
Karen thinks for a monent 
Karen: Not since I came to tell you about my engagment to Chris. I brought you some flowers. 
She places them on Julie's gave. 
Karen: They're white roses. I know you love roses and since white roses are for friendship I thought I'd bring you some. 
Karen sits there for a minute not sure what to say next. Back in the parking lot Chris arrives. he steps out of his car holding the bunch of red roses he has brought Julie. Chris looks around and takes a deep breath trying to push down the mountain of emotions he always feels when he comes here. 
Chris: I need to be here right now. 
Chris walks slowly towards Julie's grave. When he spots Karen he jumps somewhat surprised. He quickly hides behind a huge head stone near by. 
Karen: I guess you know I'm marrying Chris today huh. I know I don't have to tell you how wonderful he is, or how lucky I am to have him in my life. But I do need to tell you that I will never take your place in his heart and I would never want to. Julie you were one of my best friends and I miss you. I know I don't come here much maybe cause it feels a bit akward since I'm dating and now marrying Chris. I feel like you would aprove but it still 
Karen shakes her head 
Karen: I don't know. I guess that's why I came today. I felt I needed to tell you somethings. Like I will never try to take your place and even if I did try I wouldn't be able to. LIke I will never deny Chris the right to grieve for you or to love you. That part of his heart is yours and it always will be and I respect that. But I also wanted you to know that I love Chris with every fiber of my being. He is my world and nothing will ever change that. I want you to know that I will never hurt him, or take him for granted. He will always be loved Julie. I know you want him to be happy and I promise to do my best to make sure he is just that. I also wanted to let you know that even though we had alot of differences in the end I never stopped thinking of you as my friend. I I need to go now. I have to get ready for my wedding. I promise I'll come again soon. 
Karen stands 
Karen: Goodbye my friend 
Karen leaves quickly. Chris stands up and watches her go quietly then walks over to Julie's grave and kneels down. 
Chris: Hey there poocky looks like you're getting a whole line of visitors today huh. 
Chris lays the bright red roses down next to Karen's white ones. 
Chris: And you're getting a tune of roses. Mine are bright red which stands for love. 
Chris smiles sadly 
Chris: It's true what Karen said you know. I'll always love you. But It's also true that I love Karen now to. And my future is with her now. She's a truly wonderful person Julie. She has helped me so much. I really don't think I'd be alive if it wasn't for her. I know you want me happy and I assure you I am. But I also want you to know that Karen's right. Part of my heart will always be yours. I guess I came today cause I needed to tell you that I love you but I've found someone who has mended my heart. I'm sure you know that but I guess I needed to tell you. 
Chris sighs 
Chris: Remember our wedding day? Remember how we met up in that hideous visitors room and wed? You know I never told you this but when you walked in with that buetiful dress Rachel had brought you. 
Chris shakes his head. 
Chris: We could have been in a palace for all I new. You were such a vision. You absolutly melted my heart. I remember looking at you and being totaly speechless. You were just 
Chris shakes his head 
Chris: Amazing. I'll never forget that day Julie, never. But I can't live in the past. I have Karen now and she has made my life so full and so rich. 
Chris sighs and looks at his watch 
Chris: I really can't stay. I just wanted you to know that I love you, and that I'm happy. I promise to come again. Hey maybe I'll bring Karen with me next time. We seem to think alike on the topic of when to visit anyways 
Chris half laughs, stands and takes one last look at Julie's grave blows a kiss and walks away. 

Courtney is busy fineshing dressing Christina in her flower girl outfit. As she does this Frank unseen by Courtney stands in the door way. 
Courtney: Now are you all ready to be the best little flower girl in the whole wide world today? 
Christina: Yes 
Courtney: And what did I tell you about the flower basket? 
Christina: No throw 
Frank chuckles to himself remembering the insident at Kevin and Lucy's wedding. Courtney smiles and nods 
Courtney: That right we don't throw the flower basket. What do we throw? 
Christina: The flowers 
Courtney: That's right we throw the flowers on the. . . 
Christina: Floor 
Courtney nods then looks lovingly at Christina 
Courtney: Well now I think you are all ready to be the best little flower girl in the world. 
Courtney tickles her 
Courtney: You're sertenly the cutest. 
Frank: I'll have to second that. 
Courtney looks up startled Christina runs to him 
Christina: Daddy!! 
Frank picks Christina up and gives her a big bear hug 
Frank: Oh there is Daddy's favorite little two year old. So are you all ready? 
Christina: No throw 
Frank and Courtney laugh as Courtney walks over to them. 
Frank: Well I can see you trained her well 
They kiss gently 
Courtney: Well I figured it couldn't hurt. You look nice 
Frank: Well so do you my dear. You know it's funny a year and a half ago the last thing that mattered to me on earth was Chris Ramsey's happyness. But I actually found myself looking out side and thinking I'm glad it's a nice day for Chris and Karen's wedding? 
Frank shakes his head Courtney laughs 
Courtney: I know the feeling. I mean really a year and a half ago I couldn't of cared less about Karen. But this morning I found myself worrying about getting Christina ready on time so we wouldn't delay Karen's wedding. 
Frank shakes his head and smiles 
Frank: Things sure have changed. I mean I actually consider Chris a friend. Not a best but still a friend. Now that is odd 
Courtney laughs 
Courtney: Well I guess it just goes to show all things are possible. 
Frank: Well the past year and a half has sertenly proved that. 
Courtney: So so is Neil ready? 
Frank nods 
Frank: Just about, and Alex's baby sitter should be here soon. Oh I called Garcia and he assured me that Joe is locked up and will not be escaping again. 
Courtney sighs 
Courtney: Thank God for that. One week of that man being on the run is all I can handle. I'm just so glad they caught him yesturday before he could do anything. 
Frank sighs 
Frank: Yeah I know what you mean. I felt horrible setting that trap for him. 
Frank shakes his head. 
Frank: But I would have felt even more horrible had he not been caught and something happend to Karen. 
Courtney nods in agrement and shakes her head sadly 
Courtney: I know that was awful for you, having to lie to him like that. But it really is for the best 
Frank: Yeah I know 
Courtney: Did they figure out what his plan was? 
Frank sighs 
Frank: Yeah apparently he was planning on planting a bomb in the church today. 
Courtney gasps in horrer. 
Courtney: Oh My God! Frank that is horrible! 
Frank: I know I know so many lives could have been lost. But he's locked up now and that isn't going to happen. Oh and don't mention that to anyone okay. I don't want to upset Karen and Chris on their wedding day or Mom 
Courtney: Oh no ofcourse not I won't mention it ever. I'm just glad he's locked up again. I guess this means his theripy isn't working huh? 
Frank shakes his head 
Frank: I'm starting to think this may just be who my brother really is plain and simple. 
Courtney shakes her head 
Courtney: I'm sorry Frank 
Frank sighs 
Frank: Yeah me to. 
Christina: Wedding now! 
Frank and Courtney laugh 
Frank: I agree we need to finesh getting ready now 
Courtney smiles 
Courtney: Absolutly 
Courtney goes to check on Alex while Frank takes Christina down stairs. 

Traci is pacing in Karen's apartment when Karen comes charging in. 
Traci: Karen! Where on earth have you been?! It's your wedding day! 
Karen: I left you a note, 
Traci half laughs 
Traci: Yeah that you were going out! where were you? We have so much to do! 
Karen smiles at her old friend and takes her hands in hers 
Karen: Traci it's okay. Listen I love Chris more then anything and I can't wait to be his bride you know that. So you know I didn't run off or something. And as for so much to do. I did my nails last night, I've had my shower and had breakfast. All that's left is getting dressed and doing my hair and make up. 
Traci sighs and shakes her head 
Traci: How is it when you are a reck I'm not and when I'm a reck your not. 
Karen laughs 
Karen: That's the way friends are I guess. As for where I went I went to the semetary. 
Traci looks at her cureusly 
Traci: The semitary? 
Karen nods as she sits and begins doing her hair. 
Karen: I needed to. I stumbled on to a picture of Julie earlier and it got me thinking. You know about old times, our friendship, how much her and Chris loved one anuther stuff like that. I decided I needed to go and tell her how much I miss our friendship, and how I will always respect Chris's love for her, and how much I love him and will do my best to make him happy. It seemed important. 
Traci nods and smiles 
Traci: Yeah I can see where it would be. Here let me help. 
Traci starts helping Karen due her hair as they talk 
Traci: So can you believe today is finelly here 
Karen laughs 
Karen: No I can't. I feel like I've been planning this day forever. It's funny though cause in some ways I feel like Chris just proposed. 
Traci nods 
Traci: That makes sence. The best things in life fly and take forever at the same time 
They laugh 
Karen: You know everytime I think of how he proposed and what he said to me I just melt. 
Traci: I would to he's so romantic and sweet. It's amazing to think there was a time when we didn't know that part of him existed. Now 
Traci shakes her head 
Karen: Now I can't believe I never saw it before. You know it's funny when you think about how we got to this day. I mean Traci we weren't even friends. 
Traci laughs 
Traci: And that's putting it midly. 
Karen nods 
Karen: I remember that day Eve called me. She was so worried about him, and I needed a distraction because of Joe so I reached out. 
Traci: and now look where you are 
Karen: It really is incredible. I thank God everynight that I allowed myself to get involved. 
Traci: God works in mysterious ways. 
Karen nods in agreement. 
Karen: I must say though I really never thought Chris would ever get married again. He was so devistated by her death. I was surprised he even wanted a relationship again. 
Traci: I guess it just goes to show, hearts can mend. 
Karen: I guess so. 
Traci continues helping Karen get ready 

Eve is worriedly pacing in Chris's apartment when Chris comes in. 
Chris: Hey Eve 
Eve: Chris! Where on earth have you been! Do you want to be late to your own wedding?! 
Chris: Oh I could just tell everyone you locked me in a closet again. 
Chris gives Eve a devilish grin 
Eve: Oh very funny ha ha. You better not that bride of yours turns into super woman when she thinks someone is messing with you. I thought she was going to turn me into a pretzel when I anounced where I was going to get married. 
Eve and Chris laugh remembering the scene. 
Chris: She can be quite protective of me can't she. 
Eve nods and smiles 
Eve: To say the least. So where were you? Your not getting cold feel are you? 
Chris smilles and shakes his head. 
Chris: Not in the least. I love Karen with all my heart and I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with her. 
Eve: Well that's good considering we're in the final count down before your wedding. 
Chris: I just needed to do something first. 
Eve catches a tutch of saddness in Chris's eyes. 
Eve: Oh Chris you were at 
Chris: Julie's grave yeah. I I guess today of all days I felt I needed to go there. to bring her her favorite flowers and tell her that I'll always love her and even though I''m re marrying I'll never forget her. 
Eve nods sympatheticly, and takes his hands in hers. 
Eve: I'm sure she knows that, and I'm sure she's happy that you're happy. 
Chris smiles sadly. 
Chris:Yeah I think so to. You know the funny thing is Karen must have had the same feeling I did about today. 
Eve looks confused 
Eve: What do you mean? 
Chris: She was there to. She didn't see me or anything. I was hid while she was there. She was telling Julie how much she loves me and how she wants to make me happy. And how she respects that I still love her and always will. 
Eve smiles 
Eve: You know she means it Chris. Karen will never expect you to stop loving Julie or to forget about her. 
Chris smiles 
Chris: I know I am one lucky man. Well speaking of Karen I'd better get ready 
Eve laughs 
Eve: Yeah you better I don't want that bride of yours coming after me. 
Chris laughs 
Chris: What you don't like my oh so protective body, heart, and soul gaurd. 
Eve: Uh not when she's coming after me 
They both laugh. Chris goes to get ready. 

Kevin and Lucy are getting ready for the wedding. As Lucy does her hair Kevin comes up behind Lucy and wraps his arms around her weist and barries his face in her neck planting soft kisses. 
Kevin: Mmmm you smell good. 
Lucy laughs as she turns to face him. 
Lucy: Oh yeah the mixture of baby formula and spit up is really nice isn't it. 
Kevin pulls her in close as she raps her arms around his neck 
Kevin: Well you smell wonderful to me. 
They kiss tenderly 
Lucy: You know you better not hold me to long I'm likly to fall asleep in your arms here doc 
Kevin: Well then we may have a problem cause I just might fall asleep in your arms. 
They laugh 
Lucy: You know I love the twins and I sertenly wouldn't traid them for anything but I must say I do miss sleeping at night. 
Kevin laughs 
Kevin: What you mean you don't enjoy getting up every couple hours. 
Lucy makes a face 
Lucy: Not really. But I must admit I am lucky. I'm not sure how many wives have husbands that will get up in the night with them to take care of the babies. 
Kevin: I''ve waited a long time for this I'm not about to sleep through a second of it. 
Lucy smiles at him 
Lucy: You really are a fabulous Dad you know that. 
Kevin: And you really are a fabulous Mom. 
They kiss 
Lucy: Mmmm as much as I''m enjoying this we really do need to get going. 
Kevin groans and Lucy turns away. 
Kevin: Oh well maybe we can pick up where we left off when we get him. 
Kevin grins and winks at Lucy. Lucy laughs 
Lucy: Well since Aunt Charleen is here for a few days and she can look after the twins I think something could be arranged. 
She winks at Kevin. 
Kevin: So did you ever think we of all people would be rushing to get ready for Chris Ramsey's wedding? 
Lucy laughs 
Lucy: No no deffinetly not. Karen's sure but not Chris's. You know it really is incredible you know the two of them. 
Lucy shakes her head. 
Kevin: Yeah who would have thought it. 
Lucy: You know they kind of remind me of us. 
Kevin looks at Lucy shocked. 
Kevin: Us? 
Lucy: Well yeah. I mean think about it doc. When we met I don't think anyone in the world would have guessed that you and I could be compatible when you first came to Port Charles. We were so different. 
Kevin: Well that's true but they do say opisets attract. 
Lucy nods in agreement. 
Lucy: But it's more then just that. Remember how I helped you fight all your demons. 
Kevin smiles and nods 
Kevin: And I'm greatful for that every day Lucy. Lets face it if it wasn't for you I'd probubly be locked up somewhere. 
Lucy smiles tenderly at Kevin and strokes Kevin's face lightly 
Lucy: It was my pleasure. And I''d do it all again. And you know I bet Karen would do all she did for Chris over again to. Think about how bad off he was and how she went in there and mended his heart and let the world see the real Chris Ramsey. 
Kevin smiles 
Kevin: Like you helped me heal and be the man I was ment to be. 
Lucy: Exactly! And think how many times you''ve protected me. Like Damien, and Rex just to name a couple. Just like Chris protected Karen from Joe. 
Kevin considers this. 
Kevin: Well yeah I guess when you put it that way they are alot like us. 
Lucy nods 
Lucy: Which means they are soul mates and will be happy forever just like us. 
Kevin smiles 
Kevin: sounds nice. 
Lucy nods 
Lucy: Very 
They continue to get ready 

Karen and Scott are in the back of the church. It is almost time for her to walk down the ile. 
Karen: So how do I look? 
Karen twirls around for Scott. Scott smiles at her and shakes her head. He goes to her and takes her hands in his. 
Scott: I don't think I have ever seen a more breath taking vision. You are simply buetiful Karen. 
Karen blushes 
Karen: Thanks. Wow I can't believe this is really happening! 
Scott: You don't have cold feet do you? 
Karen: About marrying Chris? No not a one. I love him with all my heart and I know he loves me it's just. . . 
Scott looks at his daughter carefully 
Scott: It's just you have been down this road once before and you were just as sure last time to. 
Karen smiles weakly 
Karen: Yeah 
Scott nods 
Scott: I know how you feel. I was sertain when I married Laura that that was it. She was going to be the one I would be with for the rest of my life. And I thought the same with Dominque. I can only hope that with Eve I''m right. 
Karen: It makes it really hard to trust what you feel. 
Scott: Ah well that all depends on how you look at it. 
Karen: What do you mean? 
Scott: Well it's not that you were wrong it's that things changed. You see I wasn't wrong to think that I loved Laura or she loved me, and I wasn't wrong to think I would be with her forever. Anymore then I was wrong with Dom. You see it's not that I was mistaken it's that things in life happen that we have no controle over. You weren't wrong when you loved Jagger and pledged your love to him, and he I'm sure at the time had as much faith in it as you did. Just like Laura and Dom did with me. Laura wasn't lying when she married me it's just that things changed. Jagger wasn't lying to you when you married him either. 
Karen: But things beyond our controle changed. 
Scott: Exactly. You see I think what marriage is about is two people saying that right now they love each other with everything they have, and right now they want nothing more then to spend the rest of their lives together. It's like a packed that you're both going to hold on to each other and love each other for as long as the world allows you to. 
Karen smiles 
Karen: I had never thought of it that way. 
Scott shrugs 
Scott: It's just how I look at it. Might not be right but it seems to work for me. 
Karen nods 
Karen: I think it can work for me to. I am sertenly willing to make that packed, and it sertenly makes it easier to think of it like that. 
Karen shakes her head and laughs 
Karen: You know for someone who was never a big fan of Chris you sure give me good advice on how to have a relationship with him. Remember you also advised me the morning after our first kiss. 
Scott smiles 
Scott: Well any man that loves my daughter and protects and defends her can't be all bad. 
Karen smiles 
Karen: I love you Dad 
Scott: I love you to. 
They hug 

Everyone is now gathering in the church for the wedding. 
Mary: Dosn't the church look absolutly stunning. 
Victor: Oh yes indeed Mary my sweet. It is simply breath taking. 
Victor takes Mary's hand and smiles 
Victor: But it pales in comparison to ours my love. 
Mary smiles lovingly at Victor 
Mary: Oh Victor 
They kiss, and then sit down. 
Victor: How are you feeling my dear? 
Mary: Well aside from being tired I'm fine. 
Mary smiles 
Victor: Are you sure you wouldn't rather just go home my sweet? I mean with our little one still not sleeping through the night and the stress from Joe's escape. . . 
Mary: This is exactly the distraction I need. Joe is locked up again un harmed and Beatrice is with a sitter. A buetiful wedding is just what the doctor ordered. Besides it reminds me of the day our little angel was born. 
Mary smiles thinking back fondly. Victor smiles and nods 
Victor: It was a great day 
They kiss. Frank, Courtney, and Neil come in and find a seat. 
Frank: Remember the last wedding we were at? 
Frank grins at Courtney 
Courtney laughs thinking back 
Courtney: How could I forget. Alex decided it was time for him to show himself. 
Neil: Yeah it was so so cool 
Frank: I agree buddy. 
Courtney: I don't think I''ll ever look at weddings the same way again. 
Neil: Yeah they're so exciting. 
Frank laughs 
Frank: Well I think this one maybe a little calmer then the last one. 
Courtney: Well no one is pregnant right now so I think we maybe safe there. 
They laugh 
Frank: Yeah I think it's going to be a great saramony. 
Courtney: I just hope Christina remembers what I told her. 
Frank: I think she will she's a pretty smart kid. And she was still repeating ''don't throw basket'' when you droped her off with Karen in the back. 
Courtney laughs 
Courtney: Yeah she's gotten pretty good at repeating that. 
Kevin and Lucy find a seat. 
Kevin: Look like we got here just intime I think the wedding is about to start. 
Lucy: Oh Doc remember the last time we were at a wedding 
Kevin smiles lovingly at Lucy 
Kevin: How could I forget. Our twins decided to make an entrance then and there. 
Lucy smiles 
Lucy: Yes it was truly a wonderful day. 
They kiss. Just then Chris, Eve, and the minister come out and stand at the front of the church. 
Eve: ready? 
Chris smiles and nods 
Chris: Yes, I couldn't be more ready. 
Then the music starts. First Serena comes down the ilie smiling, then comes Traci. 
Courtney: Now it's Christina's turn 
Frank: I'm sure she'll do great. 
Christina comes out and begins to walk. Suddenly she spots Courtney and stops dead in her tracks. She looks at Courtney then back at the flowers in her basket. 
Christina: FLOWERS ON THE FLOOR! 
Christina turns her basket upside down and proceeds to dump the contents right there where she is standing. Everyone starts laughing. Christina then looks up to the front of the church and spots Chris. 
Christina: CHRIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
Christina flings her basket behind her and goes charging towards him at full speed arms out stretched. Chris who is cracking up along with everyone else bends down and swoops her up in his arms. 
Chris: What are you doing, you silly girl what are you doing? 
He tickles her and she laughs happily 
Christina: Courtney said no throw basket flowers on the floor! 
Everyone laughs some more and Courtney turns red with embarressment. Frank leans over and whispers 
Frank: Well she did get them in the right place. 
Chris gives Christina a big hug and kiss then puts her down. Serena takes her by the hand and pulls her over with her and Traci. Chris stratens himself up as Scott and Karen start down the ile. Chris and Karen's eyes meet as she is walking towards him .Chris mouths I love you Karen mouths I love you to. Karen and Scott then reach the front of the church. 
Minister: Who gives this woman to be married to this man? 
Scott: Her mother and I do. 
Scott hands Karen's hand to Chris 
Scott: Take good care of her Ramsey 
Chris smiles lovingly at Karen as he takes her hand. 
Chris: You have my word. 
Scott gives Karen a quick peck on the cheeck and then goes and sits down next to Eve. 
Minister: Ladies and Gentleman we are gathered here today in the presence of God and these witnesses to join this man and this woman in holy matrimony. Marriage is a sacred thing and must not be gone into hastily or unadvizadly. But reverently and with full knowledge and understanding. So I ask and charge of all present if you know of any reason why this man and this woman may not be joined together speak now or forever hold your peace. Chris do you take Karen to be your lawfully wedded wife. Do you promise to cleave only unto her forsaking all others for as long as you both shall live? 
Chris smiles as he gazes into Karen's eyes 
Chris: I do. 
Minister: And Karen do you take Chris to be your lawfully wedded husband. Do you promise to . to cleave only unto him forsaking all others for as long as you both shall live? 
Karen smiles 
Karen: I do. 
Minister: The rings please. 
Eve hands Chris the ring and smiles at him 
Eve: Good luck buddy. 
Chris smiles and nods. Traci hands Karen the ring. 
Traci: Make it last forever.

Minister: I give you this ring in token and pledge of my love and faith. This is my solume vow. With this ring I thee wed. 
Karen: I give you this ring in token and pledge of my love and faith. This is my solume vow. With this ring I thee wed. 
Karen slips the ring on Chris's fingure. 
Minister: Chris and Karen have chosen to write their own vows. 
Chris: Karen when we decided to write our own vows I figured it would be one of the easiest things I ever did. I mean how hard can it be to talk about how much you love someone you owe your life to. To say how much your best friend, and true love means to you. But then I started thinking about the depth of my love and all that you've done for and given to me and. . . 
Chris chokes up Karen smiles and squezes his hand. 
Chris: And I realized how truly hard to put into to words it all is. Karen if you were an object I'd describe you as the best gift ever opend on Christmas day that you never expected. Cause I most sertenly never expected this. If you were and animal I would describe you as a dove. Cause peace and harmony is what you've brought to me. If you were a jewel I would describe you as a diamond. Cause your love is rich and buetiful. If you were something beyond this world I'd say and angel of mercy. Because if it were not for you I'd surely be dead. But even with all these things said, it still dosn't capture you. And perhaps that's as it should be. A woman as devine as you, a friend as true as you, and a love as rich as yours should never be definde. All I can say is every night I get on my knees and thank God for bringing you into my life, and every morning I count the seconds till I see your face. I love you Karen you are a dream come true, and ansered prayer, and a wish granted. I love you today and for ever other day we are granted. You are my love for now and for always 
Karen is in tears 
Karen: Chris you are my best friend, my hero, my love, my everything. And today standing here with you as we pledge our lives to one another I count myself as one of the truly lucky ones. It is not every woman that can say she's marrying her true love. I knowv I'm blessed to have found you and I swear infront of everyone there will never come a day when I take you or our love for granted. You know they say that God works in mysterous ways and considering all it took to bring us together I can only nod and agree. You are my love, my prince the man of my dreams. And I am so proud to be your wife. 
Everyone is crying now. 
Minister: Now that Chris and Karen have consented to being together with the exchanging of rings and vows infront of these witnesses, by the powers invested in me by the state of New York I know pronounce them husband and wife. You may kiss your bride. 
Chris pulls Karen in close, Karen wraps her arms around Chris's neck 
Karen: Hello Mr. Ramsey 
Chris: Hello Mrs. Ramsey 
They kiss everyone cheers. 

At the reception the celebration gets under way.

Karen: Okay everyone Chris and I found a song that we both just fell inlove with. And we decided since alot about our relationship and who we are is untraditional that it only made sence for our first dance to be to. 
Chris: So we are not only going to dance together but we are going to sing this song to one another. 
Chris leads Karen to the floor as everyone steps back to watch. Karen turns and looks at the group. 
Karen: No promises here folks were doctors not entertainers. 
Everyone laughs as the band starts playing. 
Chris: Would you dance 
If I asked you to dance? 
Chris takes Karen's hand and pulls her close. 
Chris: Would you run 
And never look back? 
Would you cry 
If you saw me crying? 
Karen gently strokes his face and he holds her close and they slowly move across the floor. 
Chris: And would you save my soul, tonight? 

Would you tremble 
If I touched your lips? 
Would you laugh? 
Oh please tell me this. 
Now would you die 
For the one you loved? 
Hold me in your arms, tonight. 
Karen nods and hugs Chris. Then as they hold one another and continue to sway Karen begins to sing to Chris. 
Karen: I can be your hero, baby. 
I can kiss away the pain. 
I will stand by you forever. 
You can take my breath away. 
Would you swear 
That you'll always be mine? 
Chris nods 
Karen: Or would you lie? 
would you run and hide? 
Am I in too deep? 
Have I lost my mind? 
I don't care... 
You're here tonight. 
Chris kisses Karen softly then begins to sing 
Chris: I can be your hero, baby. 
I can kiss away the pain. 
I will stand by you forever. 
You can take my breath away. 

Oh, I just want to hold you. 
I just want to hold you. 
They hold one another close as the move across the floor. 
Chris: Am I in too deep? 
Have I lost my mind? 
I don't care... 
You're here tonight. 
Now both gazing into one anothers eyes they both begin singing to one another. 
Chris&Karen: I can be your hero, baby. 
I can kiss away the pain. 
I will stand by your forever. 
You can take my breath away. 
I can be your hero. 
I can kiss away the pain. 
And I will stand by you forever. 
You can take my breath away. 
You can take my breath away. 
I can be your hero. 
As the music stops everyone begins aplauding most of them have tears in their eyes. Chris twirls Karen around. She bows then Chris bows they pull one another close into a tender kiss. Chris whispers softly into Karen's ear. 
Chris: Thank you 
Karen: For what? 
Chris: For showing me how hearts can mend.
