thanks

how true.  couples do compare their relationships at s wedding

i love that narcissa is the angry one and lucius is the one calming her down--most stories do it the other way around, but this was totally believable.  and arthur's steadfast love was just so sweet.  go team venus!

That was lovely.

very sweet!

A wonderful concluding chapter to a lovely story. I'm so glad Severus finally found true happiness with Hermione. I loved the fact that Severus stays in character throughout the story, even as he finds love. It makes it far more realistic and believable.

After the first two chapters I was hoping for a baby centered chapter. I'm delighted. I smiled all along this perfect piece of writing. I wish it could have been longer, but I know of the word limit. Pity. Anyway, thank you for another wonderful story.

A very beautiful peek into Severus' and Hermione's future, well done!

That was so sweet. The banter between Severus nad Hermione was wonderful. Great job!Livvy

Ahhh... such a wonderful ending! Loved it!

This is my favorite chapter of this story.  Well done.

That was a very sweet ending to your story. Well Done.

Poor man, his severe persona has really taken a pounding! :)

Well done, of course, ladies!  Such a fantasticly sweet and realistic chapter.  I LOVED that each one of the couples you showed had something different and unique to add about love and marriage, how each approach the topics differently but ultimately came to the same end point.  Lovely job!  GO TEAM VENUS!

It was interesting to see those very different couples come round to a common viewpoint in the end.  I laughed about Lucius and the nose-blowing, and I loved the image of Hermione with her inch of note cards for her speech.  :D

that was just lovely.  the couples' reflection on their own marriages was particularly touching.  thanks and smoochies

I enjoyed this chapter very much. The way you showed two totally different couples talking about their love, and how the men manuevered their wives in seeing the love Hermione and Severus have for each other.I especially liked how Lucius manipulated Narcissa.Great work, Team Venus!

Interesting to see how both Lucius and Arthur managed to help their respective wives see how Hermione and Severus are good for each other. I was particularly pleased to see Narcissa realize that Hermione's blood status doesn't automatically make her another Lily Evans Potter.

whoo hoo! He can whisk me off any time he likes! Lovely chapter, and the little chats about marriage between the Malfoys and the Weasleys was really lovely.

heheh... love it! Poor Severus - but Hermione is right! Too long on his own and he's a Grumpy Old Man!

That was sweet.

I really enjoyed the different aspects and perspectives in this chapter.  Love is so different for everyone.  Thanks for posting, JoAnne

That was very cute! Love is expressed in so many ways, it was nice to see a few couples full of love after so many years.

This is so sweet and cute. And their wedding ceremony and party seemed to have been perfect. I wonder what there will be in store for next time? What major event in their life could be told after the engagement and wedding. Of course I have my hopes but I'll wait and see.
