Novel & Cerita What Happens When You Object At A Wedding

Victoria handed us the rings, and I repeated the vow, my voice trembling slightly, "Yes, I do." As the priest concluded the ceremony, my heart began to pound in my chest like a drum. I was on edge, bracing myself for what might happen next. The priest's voice boomed through the church once more, "Is there anyone present who objects to this union? Please come forward now." The moment of truth had arrived, and I held my breath, wondering if anyone would dare to interrupt the proceedings. My eyes scanned the crowd, searching for a familiar face. A figure emerged from the sea of faces, a man dressed in dark attire, his black pants and shirt a stark contrast to the joyful atmosphere of the weddin

"We're gathered here this day to witness the union of Fredrick Vaughn Carrillo and Nicole Emerald Odion. Now, if anyone has an objection as to why these two should not wed, let them speak now or forever hold their peace." As soon as he said that, half of wedding guests turned to look at me. Even Harriet and Bianca were no exception. Kevin moved closer to where I stood and whispered, "Um, this is the part where you say I object." I shot a death glare at him and he went back to where he was standing.

the older man said nervously, “perhaps we should take a moment—” “There’s no need,” I interrupted calmly. Then I turned to face the crowd. Hundreds of eyes stared back at me. Confused. Curious. Hungry for drama. I straightened slightly in my dress. “I apologize to everyone who came today,” I said clearly. “But this wedding will not be happening.” The whispering exploded into chaos. Some guests stood up. Others began whispering excitedly to each other. Phones were already coming out. The news would spread through the city within minutes.

"Alright, Miss Walker, I won't argue with you anymore. I'll send you the security footage from the wedding procession, as well as the hallway and elevator footage. I hope you can handle this properly and avoid further complaints from the other residents." With that, she hung up, and I received a series of messages on my phone. I opened the messages and saw the first video—at the entrance of the community, a red carpet was spread out, and several flower-decorated cars were coming in and out. The second video was from the entrance of Building 6, where a crowd of guests was coming and going, making a lot of noise. The groom was carrying the bride, who was covered by a veil, into the elevator.

The priest asked me. “Yes, I do”. I replied to him. “If any of you here has an objection to the union of this couple, should say it or forever remain silent”. The priest said and no one said anything after a few minutes. “By the power vested in me as the priest of God, I pronounce you Hus…” “Wait!....I object to this wedding”. Someone said out loud and we all turned to see the person. Oh shit, how is it him? The real Jacob whom I impersonated.

Staying on the sidelines was doing nothing for me, and I hated that overwhelming feeling of unease blooming inside my stomach. People parted when they saw me coming, and others turned their noses to ignore me, even when I politely said sorry for brushing them. I couldn’t quite hear what was being discussed at the head of the ceremony, but I thought it was probably like a typical human wedding. Xander would need to wait until the ‘does anyone here object to the joining of….’ And after that, I had absolutely no idea what would happen.

The audience cheered on with applause. "Now the vows have been taken and I want to ask this question to the audience. If you are in any way against this marriage, speak up now or forever hold your peace"The priest stood and waited for any reaction but the audience was smiling faces and no one was used up. "Since there is no one I can now remind anyone that would love to put asunder should forever hold its peace. So I hereby declare these two husband and……" "I object".

"If anyone here objects to this marriage or has any reason why these two should not be wed, speak now or forever hold your peace." The silence persisted, and I looked at the audience, certain that no one would speak. I was about to take Lauren’s hand and raise it to officially present her as my wife and Luna. Then a firm and determined voice echoed through the courtyard. "I object to this marriage! Alpha Gideon, you cannot marry this woman!" I turned quickly, shock evident on my face. It was Eleanor, holding Noah in her arms. She had returned, but I didn’t know how it happened or why she was interrupting my wedding, especially considering the deep hatred she felt for me.

Somehow I knew neither of us were breathing. “If anyone knows of any reason why these two should not be married, speak now or forever hold your peace.” The priestess conducting the ceremony said in a weak voice. My lips curled into a smile. Oddly enough, Jude began to grin as well. If I didn’t know any better he seemed … proud of me? Goddess, these men did nothing but screw with my head. “No,” Kimberly snarled softly. Relishing in the panic weaving its way into her voice, I sang to the crowd. “I object.”

When Michael saw me, a flicker of unease crossed his face, but he quickly masked it with forced composure. “Want to head in together?” he asked. I didn’t refuse. I simply nodded and walked inside. Dinner was painfully awkward. My parents still hadn’t let go of what happened at the wedding, so they weren’t exactly warm toward Michael. If this had been before, I might’ve stepped in to smooth things over. Instead, I let him sit there, alone in his discomfort.
