Chapter 733: Marvel: Starting by Awakening the Little Universe Chapter 399
Then—
The magnificent prelude sounded again, and at the same time, all the guests stood up in unison and turned to face the door.
There, Gwen, holding her father George's arm, appeared.
The sunlight shone in from the door behind her, outlining a dazzling light edge for her and her white wedding dress. The face under the veil was breathtakingly beautiful, a light mixed with shyness, happiness, and extreme determination.
Gwen's gaze passed through the long aisle and locked firmly and steadily on the man standing in front of the altar, who was also staring at her.
Eyes met.
Gwen's every step was slow and firm. George's arm was her firmest reliance at this moment. The friends and family on both sides of the aisle cast countless admiring, moving, and blessing gazes.
But in her world at this moment, there was only the man at the end of the aisle, wearing a black formal suit and standing tall.
Hawk, who hadn't seen Gwen since the bachelor party last night, felt his breathing stop for a moment as he looked at Gwen in her wedding dress.
Soon.
George came to Hawk, his voice low and carrying a trace of reluctance and reassurance.
"I'm handing her to you, take good care of her."
"I will, Mr. Stacy."
Hawk's expression was serious, looking directly at George, promising with extreme determination.
George solemnly handed Gwen's hand to Hawk, then turned and walked down, taking a seat next to his wife Helen.
Hawk and Gwen turned together, facing the altar and Father Robert of Trinity Church who was waiting for them.
Father Robert was a kind elder, wearing glasses, his gaze wise and gentle.
He looked at the newlyweds in front of him with a smile and began the ceremony with a loud and clear voice.
"Dear brothers and sisters, we are gathered here today before God and all our friends and family to witness the holy marriage union of Hawk Phoenix and Gwen Stacy. Marriage is a holy covenant established by God, the ultimate embodiment of love and commitment; it should not be entered into lightly, but should be revered, cherished, and guarded."
Father Robert made an opening statement, his words solemn and sincere, then looked at the guests present: "If anyone present knows of any legal impediment to the union of these two, they should declare it now; otherwise, please remain silent forever."
The church was quiet.
Father Robert waited for a while, then looked at Hawk.
"Hawk Phoenix, do you take Gwen Stacy to be your wife, whether in prosperity or adversity, wealth or poverty, health or sickness, joy or sorrow, will you love her, cherish her, and be faithful to her without reservation until death separates you?"
Hawk turned his head, looking at Gwen's eyes under the veil that he was willing to gaze at for a lifetime.
His voice was firm, clear, and full of unquestionability.
"I do!"
The priest then turned to Gwen.
"Gwen Stacy, do you take Hawk Phoenix to be your husband, whether in prosperity or adversity, wealth or poverty, health or sickness, joy or sorrow, will you love him, cherish him, and be faithful to him without reservation until death separates you?"
Crystal light flickered in Gwen's eyes, meeting Hawk's eyes, which were not flickering with cosmic stars at this moment, but were filled only with her, her voice soft and also carrying unquestionability.
"I do!"
The best man, Thor, who had also combed his hair like an adult, took two wedding rings from his pocket and handed them to the priest.
The priest took the rings and prayed and blessed them.
Hawk then took a ring, carefully put it on the ring finger of Gwen's left hand, and followed the priest in repeating the vow: "Gwen, I give you this ring as a symbol of my love and faithfulness, in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit."
Gwen also took the slightly larger ring, her hand trembling somewhat because of excitement, but she steadily put it on Hawk's finger: "Hawk, I give you this ring as a symbol of my love and faithfulness, in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit."
The priest then faced the guests again.
"Hawk and Gwen have made their vows before God and everyone, and exchanged tokens as proof. I hereby declare that the two of them are officially married."
The priest paused here, then faced the guests who all seemed to have expectant expressions, then looked at Hawk and said the words that everyone was looking forward to.
"Groom, you may now kiss your bride."
