As the evening continued, the energy on the dance floor was contagious. Everyone laughed, danced, and celebrated the love of Valentina and Ace. It was now time for one of the traditional wedding customs - the garter toss.
Ace playfully winked at Valentina, and she blushed as he knelt down, sliding his hand under her dress, looking for the garter with a sly smile. He carefully teased the guests, making the moment all the more fun and exciting. Valentina's heart fluttered with excitement and anticipation, knowing that this tradition was about to take place.
With a playful tug, Ace finally revealed the lacy garter, held between his teeth. The crowd erupted into cheers and laughter, and Valentina couldn't help but giggle with delight as he slowly inched it down her leg.
As the moment arrived for the garter toss, Ace playfully spun the garter around his finger before flicking it into the air with a flourish. Everyone's eyes followed the garter's trajectory as it soared through the air.
In a twist of fate, the garter landed directly in the hands of Ace's brother, Marco. He looked surprised for a moment, and the crowd erupted into laughter and applause. Marco playfully raised the garter triumphantly, teasing Ace with a mischievous grin.
Ace gave a good-natured laugh, shaking his head at the unexpected turn of events. "Well, Marco, I guess you're next in line!" he teased, making everyone laugh even more.
With the garter toss tradition completed, the celebrations continued into the night. The dance floor was alive with laughter, joy, and unforgettable moments shared between family and friends.
As the night came to a close, Valentina and Ace found themselves surrounded by loved ones, grateful for the unforgettable day they had shared. They knew that this day was just the beginning of a lifetime of happiness and love together.
The reception was filled with cherished memories, laughter, and love - a true reflection of the love that Valentina and Ace had found in each other.
As the time came for Valentina and Ace to leave for Italy, all of her siblings gathered around her, their emotions running high. They knew this was a bittersweet moment, filled with both joy for Valentina's new chapter and sorrow for the distance that would now separate them.
Valentina hugged each of her siblings tightly, trying to hold back her tears as she felt their love and support enveloping her. But when she hugged Roman, her emotions overwhelmed her, and she couldn't help but cry. Roman, her closest brother, held her even tighter, sharing in her emotions. "I'm going to miss you so much, Val," he whispered, his voice choked with tears.
Valentina nodded, trying to find the right words to express her feelings. "I love you all so much," she managed to say amidst the tears. "You've been my rock, my strength, and my family. I'm going to miss you more than words can say."
Vincenzo stepped forward, holding back his own tears as he spoke. "You'll always be in our hearts, Valentina. We'll never be too far away. We'll visit each other as often as we can, and we'll always be just a phone call away."
Marcello chimed in, trying to bring a smile to Valentina's tear-streaked face. "And think about all the incredible memories we've created together. No matter the distance, those memories will always bind us together."
Giovanni added, "And don't forget, you have Ace with you. He's family now, and he'll take good care of you."
Dominic hugged Valentina next, saying, "We're going to miss you, little sister, but we're also so proud of you. This is an exciting new chapter for you, and we'll always support you from afar."
Roman nodded, still holding Valentina close. "You're strong and brave, Val. I know you're going to thrive in Italy. And we'll always be cheering you on."
