“Are you sure I should wear a dress? Not that I’m complaining—“ Luigi said as Princess Peach tied the corset. “Oh stop you look gorgeous! Besides it’s a wedding, your wedding! You wanna look good for your king don’t you?~” Peach teased as Luigi started to blush a Scarlett red.
Luigi and Bowser started dating nearly 2 years ago and while the visits were nice and the dates were wonderful, they didn’t feel… well… Official. They wanted to go the next step, so now Luigi is here getting measured for his gown. The part that makes him nervous wasn’t wearing a dress, however.
But it was more the fact that there was… a ton… of guests, and he was worried that he might slip up or fumble on his words. What if the rings fell? What if something manages to catch fire?! What if— “Luigi.” Peach said sternly “Wha— huh?” “You’re overthinking things again, hun.” Her eyes softened when he winced at her accuracy
“Sorry, it’s just I’m not used to having so many eyes on me… it was usually Mario that had to talk for me when we were younger.” He said “hey hey! There’s no need to apologize, let’s just continue getting you ready, okay?” She said with a smile, making Luigi smile back at her “okay.” “Good. Now, would you like dark grey to match? Or maybe green?” “Could we do a mix of the two?” “Of course.”

Bowser was standing at the Alter waiting for Luigi to come down the aisle, him along with 155 people were waiting for the spouse— No, HIS spouse. He had to admit that he was starting to get antsy, he was wondering where in the world his Fiancé was!
“Um… K-Kamek?”he said in a low whisper “do you have any idea what’s going on in there…?” “I’m sorry you’re highness, but we must be patient.” Kamek replied, patting his back “just try and think of how nice he’ll look.” He didn’t need to tell Bowser twice.
There wasn’t a doubt in his mind about that, he loved everything about his soon-to-be-husband. The way he laughs, the way he hides when he gets frightened, the way he immediately runs into bowsers arms for comfort, the way Luigi trusts him with his fragility… oh god was he blushing over it again?! “Your highness—“ Kamek “Don’t. Don’t point it out.” Bowser pleaded under his breath in embarrassment.
“Oh dear—“ Kamek said as tears welded up in his eyes “it felt like only yesterday you were a little hatchling and look at your now! Already getting married to the love of your life!” Kamek said as he took out a handkerchief to blow his nose.
Now bowser was even more embarrassed, “Father please this is the last thing I need—“ he asked again under his breath, holding the bridge of his nose. “Do you mind… sending a koopa up to check?” Bowser asked softly , Kamek put away the handkerchief and and patted Bowser’s cheek “of course.”

A Koopa knocked on the door of the bride to be “come in!” Peach said as the Koopa opened the door to walk in “we’re almost ready! Just need the finishing touches.” Peach said making a flower crown out of green daylily.
Luigi’s gown was a deep gray, green accents flourishing up the dress in an almost whimsical pattern, and a big green bow on the back with green shining gloves. “doesn’t he look beautiful?” Peach asked, carefully placing the daylily on his head and placing the veil over his eyes.
“Yes princess! I shall tell the king that you two are to be down at any moment.” “Alrighty then!” Peach said, biding farewell the the Koopa as she started making the bouquet. Then she noticed how quiet Luigi was. “What’s wrong Luigi?” She asked, styling the bouquet “it’s just…” Luigi paused
“I… I can’t believe this is happening, if someone told me I was going to be marrying the king of the Dark Lands I would’ve laughed yet now…” he paused again and looked down to his gloves “he just so happens to be the love of my life.”
Peach slightly exhaled, her heart melting from the words “Awe Luigi… that’s so sweet.” Peach said as she walked over with the flowers “I couldn’t be happier.” Luigi said as he had a stupid, dorky, smile on his face. “Well.” She gave him his flowers, fixing his hair a slight bit. “You ready?” “More than ever.”

Everyone was patiently waiting, practically hearing the creak of the sun setting, until the door started to open. “Is that them?!” One Koopa asked “Is that the spouse?!” Another asked, one even started to flap their hands, stimming “oh my god I think it’s happening!” the guests waited with baited breath.
The sent koopa in the door frame then slowly opened the door further guests gasped as they witnessed the spouse, As well as princess Peach and Mario walking with him in a monochrome grey sundress and a grey suit, the pianist playing the suited melody as he walked down the isle. She then lifted his vail to reveal Luigi’s face and they both gave him a big hug and went to sit down.
A few koopas holding the end of the dress and going back to stand at the wall of the building at the back once getting the mysterious spouse to the altar. “Dearly Beloved” the minister began “We are gathered here today to celebrate one of life's greatest moments, the joining of two hearts and to give recognition to the worth and beauty of love, and to add our best wishes to the words which shall unite this couple in marriage.”
“Today we have come together to witness the joining of these two lives. For them, out of the routine of ordinary life, the extraordinary has happened. They met each other, fell in love and are finalizing it with their wedding. A good marriage must be created. It is never being too old to hold hands. It's remembering to say I love you every day and it is not just marrying the right person its being the right partner. You may now exchange vows.” The minister finished
“I, Bowser Koopa take you, Luigi Mario, to be my husband, my partner in life and my one true love. I will cherish our friendship and love you today, tomorrow, and forever.” Bowser recited, holding his spouse’s hands as Kamek wailed tears of joy on the background “I, Luigi Mario take you, Bowser Koopa, to be my husband, my partner in life and my one true love. I will cherish our friendship and love you today, tomorrow, and forever.” Luigi Recited, Mario blowing his nose and Peach comforts him.
”Bowser Koopa, do you take Luigi Mario, to be your husband? Do you promise to love, honor, cherish and protect him, forsaking all others and holding only unto him?” Immediately after the minister said that Bowser answered. “I do.” “Luigi Mario, do you take Bowser Koopa, to be your husband? Do you promise to love, honor, cherish and protect him, forsaking all others and holding only unto him?” Asked the minister “I do.”
The minister smiled to the answers. “The rings, please.” The minister asked as Bowser junior walked over in his little grey suit, a smile scribbled on his bib as he held the rings up. The minister then took the rings to give them to each of the spouses, Bowser putting Luigi’s ring on him, and Luigi putting Bowser’s ring on him. “By the power vested in me I now pronounce you husbands for life You may kiss your love.” Bowser immediately launched Luigi up in the air catching him perfectly as they share a giggle, Luigi then grabbed Bowser’s face and kissed him, and Bowser kissed back. The guests cheering as nothing else mattered in the world for the two.
