The New York Institute welcomes you to the Wedding Ceremony of Jace Herondale & Lydia Branwell
Description:
5 gifs of Jace Wayland/Herondale and Lydia Branwell, edited from episode 12 of season 1 of Shadowhunters to look like the characters are getting married. Gifs 1, 2 and 3 are of Lydia, her blonde hair up in a complicated braided hairdo with a long braid on her right shoulder, in a sleeveless bustier wedding dress, off-white colored with loads of pearls and beadings on the bustier, holding a bouquet of red roses, and walking down the aisle to Jace Herondale. Jace wears a black suit jacket, black shirt and black bowtie and a golden waistcoat. Gif 4 is of Lydia looking down and holding a necklace in form of a teardrop with small diamond-like stones all over it. It’s the Shadowhunters equivalent to the ring given to the bride. Jace looks upon her emotionally. Gif 5 is a side view of Lydia and Jace talking, Magnus, Alec, Izzy and Simon chatting happily in the background.

Thank you to all of those who have been following Selfish since August 2019, where I first started this adventure. This story came at a point where I was on a journey to healing and growth, and dealing with my past feelings. I can’t really explain how incredibly proud of myself I am for writing this, for finishing it, and for going through the journey in my personal life.
Not writing this every week, not posting on Thursdays is going to be strange, but I think it’s necessary to finish this story now and say goodbye.
Maybe I will write a sequel, maybe I won’t, but Jace’s journey of mourning and healing and loving is over.
I love all of you guys, thank you for the comments and the kudos and the support.
One last time, here’s a link to the last chapter.
