Chapter 17
"No Way!" Alea screamed. "Come on Alea, I want this one" Scott complained as he looked through the booklet. "Scott I refuse to be married by Elvis!" Alea laughed. The group sat in one of the many chapels in Las Vagas and were looking for a wedding package. "How bout this one?" Abs laughed as he read the description, "60's package, Get married by beautiful lava lamps and disco lights. Guests sit in inflatable chairs and beanbags. Bride wears bell-bottoms with 'Flower power' halter top and platform shoes. Groom wears bell-bottoms, platforms and a choice of 'Peace' shirts. Groom is given sideburns and bride long hair with flowers." Abs finished. Scott and Alea looked at each other and smiled. "You only live once right?" Scott asked. Alea called the owner over, "We want the 60's package, but we want all our friends to be dressed also. We also want tons of pictures" Alea told her. "That will be great" the owner said, "You can all go to the back room and our dressers will find you everything you need. Give us about an hour to set up the 60's package" the woman smiled as she walked away.
About 30 minutes later they all emerged from the dresing rooms. They all laughed when they saw each other. All the girls were wearing long wigs and bright make-up. The guys also looked funny, All of them were wearing platforms. Scott and had big sideburns along with J, Sean had an afro and Abs wore a wig that extended his hair to below his shoulders.
The ceremony was quick and Keesha and Abs were maid of honour and best man. After the church's photographer took wedding pictures in front of a tie-dye backdrop. He got pictures of the couple, Alea with her bridesmaids, and Scott with his men. Plus lot's of group shot's. Scott decided to treat everyone and purchased the outfits so they could always have something to remember the day by.
Later on that night Alea sat on Scott on the balcony of their hotel room. "This was weirdest day of my life" Alea said. "I've never gone through so many emotions and surprises. But it was worth it all. But I must admit I never expected by dream wedding to be in a Las Vegas chapel dressed like that!" Alea laughed. Scott squeezed her closer, "So where did the gang head off to?" "There probably gambling whatever money the 8 of them managed to gather up" Alea smiled. "No regrets?" Scott asked. "No regrets" Alea answered. |
