The day finally came and Hermione was more nervous than she had ever been . She had fought in the war, she had competed in the Triwizard tournament, but still, this felt like the most important day of her life. Luna awoke her early, with breakfast in bed, and Fleur brought her in a mug of tea.
"Are you ready for the most beautiful day of your life?" Luna asked and Hermione couldn't help but grin.

On the other side of europe, Viktor was woken up by his brother, who brought him in bacon and a cup of coffee.
"Are you excited?" He asked and Viktor only smiled in response.
"There is something I wanted to ask you about." Mladen told his brother and Viktor was all ears.
"You have to do it. If you love Luna, you have to ask her!" Viktor was very supportive of Mladen asking for Luna to be his.
"We write all the time and every spare minute I get, I go to see her. I think she is the one for me, I really do." He told him and Viktor nodded and patted him on the back.
"I think you should go to her now, before it all becomes too hectic." Mladen took his brother's advice and swallowed his nerves.

Luna opened the door to Mladen and asked if everything was okay.
"Yes yes, I just wondered if I could talk to you?" He asked her and she nodded, grabbing her translators, her heart racing, wondering if he was going to break up with her. She really hoped he wasn't, and if he was, she didn't want it to be on this special day, that would just be selfish.
"Luna, ve have been talking or a long vhile now, and you are the most vonderful vitch I have ever met. I know this might seem selfish. But I don't vant you seeing other vizards, the thought of someone else holding your favour is so painful for me. So I vanted to ask, vould you be mine, officially?" He asked and Luna felt her eyes grow wide. She had almost given up on Mladen. He made the effort, but she wondered if she was more of a friend to him than anything. But now, this was exactly what she had been waiting for. She smiled up at him and gave him a kiss on the cheek.
"Consider me yours." She smiled and left him a little winded, stood out in the corridor.

Hermione felt the love flow from Luna and she was so happy. They all huddled together, Luna, Hermione and Fleur and apparated to the Krum house. This was when the heavy work started. The makeup artist came in, the hair stylist did his work and then there was the dress. Once it was all done, Hermione looked at herself and felt her mouth fall agape. She had never looked so beautiful. She placed a hand over her mouth and that was when Jane appeared.
"Oh Hermione!" She stood back and looked at her daughter. Luna placed the veil in her hair and Hermione had to hold back her tears, not wanting to ruin her makeup.
"Oh my goodness, I am actually going to be a bride!" She chuckled and the girls all smiled down at her, knowing that she was going to be the most beautiful bride the magazines would see for a long while.

On the other side of the Krum house, Viktor was getting ready. He was so happy that his brother had reported back that Luna had accepted him. But now, he had to focus on himself and Hermione and the happiest day of his life. He got dressed and looked at himself.
"I have never seen such a fine young man." Andon announced as he entered the room. Viktor was more handsome than any young man he had ever seen.
"Do you think she will like it?" He asked his father and Andon chuckled.
"She is a fool if she does not." He told him, straightening one of his buttons.
"Enjoy today, son. You only get one wedding and it will be the happiest day of your life." He told him and Viktor bowed his head.
"Yes father."
"Now, let's get down there. They are waiting for us."

Viktor had never seen the grand hall look so beautiful. There were red roses everywhere. And so many people sat in the crowd, people from Hogwarts, people from Durmstrang, people from Vratsa, anyone who meant anything to either of them were there. Viktor stopped when he saw Chigvintsev stood at the altar.
"I am doing your service today." He told him and Viktor looked over to his mother, who winked at him. He shook his hand, before taking his position.

Hermione shook in her heels.
"I am so nervous." She whispered to her mother.
"Hermione, don't worry. You are going to be perfect!" She told her and Hermione nodded.
"Let's go."

Luna and Fleur descended the stairs first. Viktor smiled seeing them in their burgundy dresses, matching the roses. He held his breath until he saw Hermione. When she emerged, onto the stairs, he had to pull a handkerchief from his cape. He had never seen anyone look so beautiful. She glowed as she descended the stairs, so elegant, so stunning. Every moment he had spent with her flashed through his mind, when he first saw her asleep in the library, to their dates in the Three Broomsticks, the day he had proposed, it all played through his mind and he wondered how it was possible to love someone so much.

Hermione could not believe how many people were there. But when she saw Viktor, they all disappeared. He looked so handsome in his red robes, with his cape, and he brought his handkerchief up to his face, to wipe away his tears. Hermione had never imagined she would be so lucky to find someone so wonderful. When she saw Chigvintsev stood at the altar, she had to stop for a moment, she couldn't imagine anything more perfect than the man who had taken the position of a father in her life marrying her to the love of her life. Then, when she thought she could not be surprised anymore, she saw Seamus at Viktor's side. He had surprised her, he had put Seamus above his own brother. She thought she was going to cry. But, she wanted to keep her makeup on.

Jane took Hermione's hand and placed it in Viktor's. Hermione looked at her mother with so much love in her eyes, that Jane knew that she was in safe hands. Chigvintsev began the service. Viktor took Hermione's hands and looked her deep in the eyes and Chigvintsev read his words. Then, it was time for the vows.
"Hermione, I vill never forget the moment I fell in love vith you. It vas vhen I saw you in those little yellow rain boots. You made the rain stop, and I felt you vere stopping it for me. I hoped you vere stopping it for me. You looked past vhat everyone else sees, the Viktor that everyone else sees and you saw the real me, and loved me for it. I do not know vhat I did to get so lucky to have found you. But know, that as long as ve both shall live I vill never let you go." He told her and Hermione looked down at her shoes, her breath coming out ragged. But, Viktor squeezed her hands and she felt the strength to say her words.
"Before I came to Durmstrang, my divinations professor told me that I was going to have a change in my life and meet new people. I didn't know then that the person I was going to meet was going to be the love of my life. I found it so easy to love you, so easy to look past the persona that the media made, because you showed me your true self and you gave me the courage to show you my true self. I cannot wait to wake up to your face every morning, and kiss you every night, and know that no matter what we go through, you will be at my side, loving me, making me the woman I am today." Hermione saw Viktor's lip wobble and she heard some crying from the crowd.
"You may now kiss the bride." Chigvintsev announced and Viktor placed his hands on either side of her face and kissed her more deeply than he ever had in his life.

After the ceremony, the newly wed couple greeted everyone who wanted to see them. Hermione hugged Dumbledore and Viktor embraced McGonagall.
"I have never seen such a handsome couple!" McGonagall told them.
"I agree. I wish you many years of happiness." Dumbledore told them. Hermione took Harry's hand and thanked him for coming.
"I wouldn't have missed it for the world." He told her and she squeezed his hand.

Eventually, it was time for Viktor and Hermione to have their first dance. Viktor led Hermione onto the dancefloor and they held one another as a soft melody played in the background.
"I love you so much." She whispered to him.
"I have never been this happy." He told her and she kissed him on the cheek. The dance was over too soon, but then it was time for the father daughter dance, and Chigvintsev took over.
"Congratulations." He whispered to her and she rested her head against his shoulder.
"Thank you so much for today, for doing the ceremony." He held her tighter.
"Of course, you are like a child to me Hermione." He told her and she smiled up at him.
"So, when are you going to pop the question with mum?" She asked and Chigvintsev laughed.
"Would you be happy if I did?" He asked her, wanting to get her blessing.
"Of course."

The evening was filled with love and laughter, and Hermione giggled as they were sent off with cheers and applause, on their honeymoon.
"This is bliss, just the two of us." She told Viktor.
"I love you, Mrs Krum."

Hermione sat on the beach in the south of France. Fleur brought her over a lemonade and she thanked her. They sat and watched as their children chased one another in the sand. Hermione made the sun glow a little brighter and Viktor placed a hand on her growing belly.
"You should not be doing that." He warned her and she chuckled it off. They had made it a tradition, ever since Rose was born, to spend a few weeks with Fleur and Bill in the south of France. Rose was five now, and Hermione had another one on the way. Viktor was a coach at the Vultures and Hermione had dedicated her time to her glass, after working in medicine for a few years.

Rose came running over, curls blowing in the wind and sat herself in front of Hermione.
"Mummy, how did you and daddy meet?" She asked and Viktor and Hermione smiled to one another.
"Well, it all started with a year abroad."
