Truly Madly Deeply

Andrea and AJ are standing at the altar on their wedding day facing each other.

Priest: Both Andrea and Alexander have decided to express their love for each other in their own words. Andrea...

Andrea: AJ I promise ... I’ll be your dream, I’ll be your wish, I’ll be your fantasy ... I’ll be your hope, I’ll be your love, be everything that you need ... Forever and a day.

Then Andrea reaches out for AJ’s hand and places a gold ring on his finger as a symbol of her undying love for him.

Priest: Alexander...

AJ: I’ll love you more with every breath ... Truly, madly, deeply do, I will be strong, I will be faithful cause I’m counting on forever and a day.

Then AJ reaches out for Andrea’s hand and places a gold ring on her finger as a symbol of his undying love for her. The two of them look up at the priest.

Priest: This is a new beginning, a reason for living, a deeper meaning ... Ladies and gentleman I would like to present to you Mr. and Mrs. Alexander James McLean.

At the Reception –

Andrea, AJ and all of their family and friends are celebrating their marriage. AJ pulls Andrea over to the side.

AJ: It’s time to leave ... Let’s say goodbye to everyone and leave ... I can’t wait to get you alone.

Andrea: You still haven’t told me where we are going on our honeymoon.

AJ: You’ll find out when we get there ... Now the longer you take to say goodbye the longer it will take us to get there and then that’s the more time that you have to wait to find out.

AJ and Andrea say goodbye to all of their friends and family and leave for the airport.

On the Airplane –

Andrea and AJ are lying on the couch in a big private plane that AJ has rented for them.

AJ: Do you know how much I love you...

Andrea: I have an idea!

AJ: I want to do anything and everything with you by my side ... I want to stand with you on a mountain, I want to bathe with you in the sea.

Andrea: Well, I want to lay like this forever, until the sun falls down on me!

AJ: That could definitely be arranged.

Then AJ moves so that he is facing Andrea and looks deep into her eyes. He kisses her for a moment and then pulls away and lays his hands on either side of her face.

AJ: Do you have any idea what I’m going to do tonight?

Andrea gives AJ a little smile and AJ starts to laugh.

AJ: Besides that ... Well when the stars are shining brightly in the velvet sky, I’ll make a wish to send to heaven ... Then make you want to cry.

Andrea: The tears of joy for all the pleasure in the certainty that we are surrounded by the comfort and protection of the highest power.

Andrea gets up from the couch, and starts to walk away.

AJ: Hey! Where are you going? What happened to forever?

Andrea looks back at AJ and sees that he is almost ready to cry. She smiles and motions for him to come over to her. AJ crosses the room and stops when he is standing in front of Andrea. She wraps her arms around his neck and kisses him.

Andrea: Well I can see that in the lonely hours the tears will devour you!

Andrea moves to the window and AJ follows her.

AJ: What are you looking at?

Andrea: I’m looking for the mountain and the sea!

AJ: It’s right here! Oh it’s beautiful ... Can you see it baby?

AJ grabs Andrea around the waist and spins her around to face him. Andrea closes her eyes to capture the moment.

AJ: You don’t have to close your eyes cause it’s standing right here before you. All that you need will surely come ... Like you said ... I’ll be your dream, I’ll be your wish, I’ll be your fantasy ... I’ll be your hope, I’ll be your love, be everything that you need...

Andrea looks deep into AJ’s eyes and kisses him.

Andrea: I’ll love you more with every breath, truly, madly, deeply do ... I will always love you.

AJ: Now you know how I have felt since the moment we first met.
