I shouldn'ta made a big deal of it. It's just a wedding. I love you. I want to be married to you. I don't care how or where or with who. Well, we need witnesses. I do want it legal. But, that's my dealbreaker.
Well, here's my idea. We can do all the bells and whistles. The cake and the dress and the big party you want. But I have a couple compromises.
One, we don't rush this. We have it after we move and are settled in New Orleans. I know you're going to be busy so I will do the bulk of the planning, but we take our time.
Two ... I love all your brothers, babe, but you have too many. I don't have enough friends that I consider bridesmaid worthy to match them and I know you could pick but I don't want to make you so can we do a really small wedding party? Like maid of honor, best man, flower girl and ring bearer, that's it?
[She doesn't think those are big asks to keep the bulk of what he wanted, but it's still making her a bit nervous to ask.]

And while I was waiting forever for the doctor to appear to let me go, I was thinking about the wedding. And I had an idea.

( It's better than he expects and all stipulations he can work with and around. His smile widens into a full on grin. )
Maeve'll be thrilled, and my brothers wouldn't do with the pomp and the circumstance, anyway. Deal. To all of it.
( Barrie Jr., the best man. )

Okay. Good. I'll loop in Cami to help when we get stateside.
