There she was , a breathtaking sight to behold , his breath hitches in his throat and tears of joy threaten to fall. Her sapphire eyes burned right through him , directly to his hammering heart. Tearful green eyes gazed on at his soon to be wife , his white gloves brushing against his sweaty palms due to rampant nerves that ate away at him. He swallows hard as lump forms in his throat and wills his body temperature to lower. Elsa senses his discomfort from the end of the aisle and sends a light wintery breeze in order to cool him down , he smiles gratefully.
Elsa looked radiant in her, a-line , off the shoulder wedding dress. The frost fabric sparkled with every sliver of light that poured into the chapel, the lace that decorated the bodice , the long sleeved lace depicted flowers and ornate wintery snowflakes that looked beautiful against her pale skin. Her wavy hair cascades down her back and over her shoulders , framing her pretty face to perfection. The veil , now that was a sight to see , it reflected beautifully in the light , the ultra fine frost fabric looked like glass in the chapel. Her golden tiara adorned her platinum blonde locks. Hans wishes Elsa could see herself the way he saw her.
He was unsure of how he had gotten past Elsa's frosty exterior , they just had a connection from the start , the silent yearning between the pair over the years had become too powerful for them to not give into each other. The pair were once famed for clashing , and having hour long arguments in the study , especially amongst the royalty - so this marriage had come at a complete surprise to everyone.
The whole room drifted away as Hans could only think of her , look at her and appreciate her , as their connected gaze never faltered. He could sense she was nervous too, for she also felt anxiety about large gatherings but also , nervous and paranoid that her bump was on show. It was perfectly concealed amongst the fabrics and the bouquet of flowers certainly helped to hide it. Eugene nudged Hans, whistling suggestively as If to congratulate him on winning the heart of such a kind and beautiful creature. Eugene felt pride for his best friend , and was looking forward to the day he and Rapunzel would be married officially. He smiles , their wedding was fast approaching , and he couldn't wait.
Hans couldn't believe it , he was to be her husband , it was so fantastical therefore it seemed to be too good to be true. Indeed it was true , the pair were to exchange vows and share their lives together until death do they part. Elsa was being walked up the Aisle by her Sister , the crown princess of Arendelle , Anna. Anna was also a beautiful young lady , who always managed to make him laugh and give him that sibling love that he never really had. The young princess wore a Bardot a-line dress , with light frosty blue lacing on the sweet heart neckline bodice , and the floaty skirts. Only a small bit of blue fabric circled Anna's upper arm. The princess's hair was waved , similar to her sister's hair , with a loose braid circling the back of her head.
Kristoff was flanking Eugenes side , nodding supportively , excited for this wedding , for it had been a long time since Elsa was this happy before she and Hans fell in love. He was excited for his future nephew , that was growing in Elsa's belly at that very moment , his heart slightly aches with envy for Anna had not yet fallen pregnant , but he had a feeling deep down that their time would come soon.
Hans smiles at his family , the very family he has always sworn to love and protect , he would continue to see his vow through. He would be injured , go through all his suffering again, if it meant his family in Arendelle was safe. If it meant that , Elsa would end up in his arms.
Olaf was chuckling happily as snow tears trickled down his cheeks , tugging Queen Ariannas dress emotively , whilst Rapunzel and pascal smiled eagerly at the loved up couple. Arianna patted the top of Olaf's head soothingly as she herself attempted to hold tears back, whilst her husband Frederick wraps a loving arm around her waist - which is then followed by a sweet kiss to her temple.
Elsa takes in her soon to be husband , his strong form looked beautiful in the Dark blue naval uniform , his plenty medals and awards pinned on his chest , the gold epaulettes brought out the green in his eyes and looked stunning amongst the blue. Her eyes trailed down his legs , which had slim fitting white trousers with a gold strip down the outer seam , his large sharp naval blade was sheathed safely in its scabbard that was strapped to its masters waist , the trousers he wore left nothing to the imagination and she found it rather thrilling , the entire congregation eyeing what was rightfully hers.
Elsa is soon at Hans' side , Anna shares a smile with Hans before letting her sisters arm go hesitantly. Anna knew that , Elsa was dearly loved and protected by this man , which is why she let her go so willingly to her once former enemy. The Queen chuckles before tenderly intertwining her cool bare fingers with his warm gloves ones , squeezing his hand affectionately. Blue eyes meet green , lovingly entirely entrapped with each other , Elsa summons a light happy snow in the chapel which causes gestures of awe from the spectators.
The priest clears his throat , an elderly man who'd crowned Elsa four years prior at her coronation , a man who'd normally be in red robes , wore white for this momentous occasion , that most of Arendelle thought would never come for the young cold Queen. He expresses his congratulations and friendliness for the happy couple, smiling at the ice Queen's beautiful magic.
"We gather here to unite these two people in marriage. Their decision to marry has not been entered into lightly and today they publicly
declare their private devotion to each other. The essence of this commitment is the acceptance of each other in entirety, as lover, companion, and friend." The elderly priest soft baritone tones , warmly expresses to the congregation, Hans beams at Elsa , struggling to contain the urge to sweep her lips in a passionate kiss , in front of the world to see.
"A good and balanced relationship is one in
which neither person is overpowered nor absorbed by the other, one in which neither person is possessive of the other, one in which both give their love freely and without jealousy. Marriage, ideally, is a sharing of responsibilities, hopes, and dreams. It takes a special effort to grow together, survive hard times, and be loving and unselfish." The elderly priest grins brightly at Hans and Elsa , nodding with great approval towards their marriage.
"Do you, Queen Elsa of Arendelle, and , Admiral Prince Hans Westergaard, both pledge to share your lives openly with one another, and to speak the truth in love? Do you promise to honor and tenderly care for one another, cherish and encourage each other, stand together, through sorrows and joys, hardships and triumphs for all the days of your lives?"
"I do" Elsa says emotively with pride , tears threading to flood down her rosey cheeks , Hans could feel his emotions stirring and swelling with the potential to allow him to cry in public.
"I do" Hans swallows his emotions and squeezes Elsa's hand tighter , for reassurance and a reminder of what all this was for.
"Do you pledge to share your love and the joys of your marriage with all those around you, so that they may learn from your love and be encouraged to grow in their own lives?"
"I do" They speak tenderly from the bottom of their lovelorn hearts , Elsa's magic glows in the chapel , the snowflakes emitting a blue light which makes Anna sniffle at the romance and the happiness she was in the presence of. Anna knew that her sister had been yearning for someone to love her , through and through , someone who saw her as something other than the snow Queen , Just as Elsa. Anna certainly loved her , but sisterly love wouldn't be able to sustain the Queen alone.
Hans turns to face Elsa taking both of her hands in his , his breath hitches at the sight of her enthralling beauty , his heart flutters in his chest at the reminder that he was to be hers. The priest places his hands on the couples furthering their potential union , blessing the couple in the name of his god.
"Queen Elsa of Arendelle, monarch of Norway , Do you take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband and promise to be true to him in good times and in bad, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do you part?"
"I do" She sobs with deep emotional love for the man that stood in front of her , she did not know what she would do without him. Hans gently wipes her tears from under her eyes with his gloved thumb, Elsa wishes his hand would linger there for a bit longer.
"Will love you and honour him?"
"Of course I will" She smiles , her bright blue eyes still glistening with fresh tears , her bottom lip trembling slightly , allowing herself to be vulnerable in public for this special tender occasion. The priest gently squeezes the Queens hand with warm reassurance , sensing her emotions were becoming overwhelming, she was just so happy. His gaze shifts to the Admiral who , was also attempting to hold himself together.
"Admiral Prince Hans Westergaard . Do you take this Woman to be your lawfully wedded wife and promise to be true to her in good times and in bad , to have and to hold , from this day forward, for worse , for richer , for poorer , in sickness and in health , until death do you part?"
"I do" He speaks tenderly as Elsa let's out another joyful sob , the young queen who was finding it hard to see that she had been lucky enough to be in such a position , in love. She had been blessed with a handsome lover who worshipped the ground she walked on, and he'd blessed her with a child that she never thought she'd be able to have with her ice magic.
"Will you love and honour her , assist her in the ruling of this nation , as her equal , as you , her King and she , your Queen?"
"I will" He bows his head earnestly in respect towards the elderly priest , this man had crowned Elsa , her parents before her and Agnarr's father , King Runeard himself.
"'Now for the rings" the priest beckons Anna over with Hans' ring , that Elsa had secretly engraved inside forever my love. She would show him this engraving once they would have a chance at being alone together after the ceremony.
Elsa trembles as she takes Hans' ring from Anna's velvet cushion , her blue eyes concentrated intensely on not stumbling or dropping such a precious object.
She gently slides Hans' white glove off his left palm , a slight jolt rushed through her upon contact with his warm skin . Her orbs rest intensely on his for a quiet moment , she remembers all the kisses stolen , all the loving words , all that intimate moments shared between them , all leading to this important ceremony.
The priest says his blessings as she gently slides the silver band onto his ring finger , tears cascading down her pale cheeks , he takes her cool hand in his and slips the silver band onto her finger , the band looked beautiful next to her snowflake engagement ring. An irrepressible smile graced his cheeks as he took in his beautiful bride , his everything , his all.
"I now pronounce you Husband and Wife" the elderly man grins brightly for he had successfully ensured an important union for yet another Arendellian Royal.
"You may now kiss , the bride"
Elsa surprises her husband by pulling him by the collar in order to gain easy access to his lips , and she presses a passionate kiss to his lips , a breathless hum passes through his lips as he returned the kiss with intense love. One of his hands gently cupped her cheek whilst the other presses against the small of her back. The congregation erupts in Cheers and applause of congratulations as the newly weds embrace each other.
As they descend down the aisle arm in arm , rose petals are thrown over the loved up couple whilst a happy snow flutters over the awestruck congregation. Anna cheers tearfully for her sister was now with this kind hearted man until death do they part , they looked beautiful together , a truly handsome couple basking in the autumn sunlight. They all leave the castle chapel and make their way back into the royal gardens for celebratory drinks.
