A Wedding To Remember/Part 1

It is the day that Empath and Smurfette have waited for -- the day of their daughter Psycheliana's wedding to her long-time suitor Miracle Smurf, whom the village once knew as Baby Smurf. Every Smurf was gathered around at the altar set up for the ceremony, with Empath as the presiding minister ready to marry her to her future husband. Smurfette was with her friends as she saw Miracle dressed in a sparkling tuxedo, anxiously waiting for his bride to come to the altar. Beside Miracle was Snappy Smurf, who was chosen as his best man, who was happy to see that the Smurf that he once played with as a baby and a Smurfling is now grown up and ready to become a husband and a family man.

Then the wedding march played, and all the Smurfs and their guests turned to see Psycheliana being brought to the altar by Duncan McSmurf, who was her escort. She looked beautiful in her wedding gown, which made Smurfette feel just a little bit jealous. Following them was Sassette, who was the matron of honor, Nat and Slouchy, who were escorting the bridesmaids, Tapper's daughters Fiona and Meaghan, as well as Snappy and Sassette's son and daughter, who were the ring bearer and the flower girl. Miracle smiled as Psycheliana now stood beside him and he lifted the veil to see her beautiful face smiling back at him with eyes of love.

"My fellow and little Smurfs, as both your Papa Smurf and the leader of this village," Empath began, "it smurfs me great pleasure to smurf the long-awaited privilege of smurfing these two fine Smurfs together in the bonds of smurfy matrimony. As it was smurfed in the beginning, so shall it smurf by the decree of nature, that male and female shall be smurfed together as one so that they may be fruitful with the blessings of love and family. I know that the two of them must be eager in wanting to smurf eternity with each other. However, if there is any Smurf who feels that these two should not be smurfed together in marriage, please smurf now or forever hold your smurf!"

Every Smurf looked at each other and wondered if they should say anything to keep the couple from being married to each other, but in the end none of them said a word. There were a few babies crying, though they were soon shushed by their mothers. Empath chuckled, as if he was thinking that the babies wanted to object, but didn't have the ability to speak just yet.

"If there are no objections, then let us proceed," Empath said. "Miracle Smurf, do you take Psycheliana Smurfette to be your smurfully-wedded wife, to cherish, honor, and obey, in sickness and in health, in good times and in bad, for better and for worse, to love her as long as you both shall smurf?"

"I sure do, Papa Smurf," Miracle said.

"And Psycheliana Smurfette, do you take Miracle Smurf to be your smurfully-wedded husband, to cherish, honor, and obey, in sickness and in health, in good times and in bad, for better and for worse, to love him as long as you both shall smurf?"

"I do, Papa Smurf," Psycheliana said.

Empath then called forth Snappy's son. He raised up the pillow which contained the rings that Smithy Smurf has forged for them. "These rings made of gold will show that the two of you are insmurfably bound to each other for all time. You will smurf your own vows and in turn smurf the ring on the other's finger."

Miracle was the first to take the ring. "Liana, you were the first Smurfette that I smurfed in love with, even as a baby Smurf, and from that time on I knew that we would someday smurf together as soul mates." He then placed the ring on Psycheliana's finger. "With this ring, I vow that, from the smurfs of my own soul, to be the kind of Smurf that you want me to be, to smurf you everything that your heart desires no matter the cost, to make you the one and only Smurf that I will always love above all others."

Psycheliana took the second ring. "Miracle, I had a feeling since I was a baby Smurf that you would be the one Smurf who would wait for me and would always be there for me no matter what." She then placed the ring on Miracle's finger. "With this ring, I vow that, from everything that I smurf within me, I will be the Smurfette that you want me to be...to smurf you a home and a family that will always love you, and to have you as the one and only Smurf that I will always smurf above all others."

"Then, by the powers smurfed in me by Mother Nature and Father Time, who smurf before us as witnesses, and by all the Smurfs who have smurfed throughout the ages, I shall pronounce that Miracle Smurf and Psycheliana Smurfette are now husband and wife," Empath said. "May this bond between them smurf for all time!"

Every Smurf in the audience cheered wildly at the pronouncement, while Nat, Snappy, and Slouchy thrust their fists in the air to show their approval.

"And now you may kiss the bride," Empath said to Miracle.

Again the audience cheered and clapped their hands as they saw Miracle kiss Psycheliana with a very passionate kiss.

"This is just so beautiful, I can't stop crying," Weepy said.

"I hate crying at weddings," Grouchy said.

Every Smurf threw rice over the newlywed couple as they left the altar through the aisle, with Smurfette greeting them when the ceremony had ended. "So how does it feel to marry the Smurf of your dreams, Liana?" Smurfette asked.

"Oh, I couldn't believe that this is all happening, it's like a dream come true, Mama," Psycheliana said. "I thank you for letting me smurf this."

"It's too bad that Grandpa Smurf couldn't be here with us to see this wonderful day," Miracle said. "But I know that he's in the smurfy hereafter with the others smurfing down upon us, seeing how happy we now are."

"It just smurfs me great pleasure in knowing that my two children are going to have a wonderful future together, since I raised you both from diapers," Smurfette said.

"Mama, I sense that you don't smurf so good," Psycheliana said. "Do you want me to smurf you Papa or the village doctor?"

"No, I'll be fine, Liana," Smurfette said. "It's nothing that I can't handle with the smurfing of age upon my weary body. Don't let my health problems ruin your joyous day with your husband now."

"We'll be there to help you if you need to smurf to the infirmary, Mama," Miracle said. "Just sit and relax yourself, and let me worry about your daughter."
