Jose stood at the front of the alter.

Xandra, April, May, and June walked down the aisle.

Then Jessica with her father.

"You look as beautiful as your mother did in that dress." Her father said.

"Thank you, daddy." She said.

She took his arm and he escorted her down the aisle.

Jose gazed upon his beautiful bride.

When they reached the front, she hugged her father and joined Jose.

"My love, you are a vision." Jose said.

"Thank you." She said.

"Do you Jose Carioca, take Jessica Crane as your wife in sickness and in health for richer or for poor as long as you both shall live?" Jose smiled at her.

"I do." He said.

He then began to sing.

Life was a song,

You came along

I've laid awake the whole night through

If I ever dared to think you'd care

This is what I'd say to you

You were meant for me

And I was meant for you

Nature patterned you

And when she was done

You were all the sweet things

Rolled up in one

You're like a plaintive melody

That never lets me free

But I'm content

The angels must have sent you

And they meant you just for me

But I'm content

The angels must have sent you

And they meant you

Just for me

She teared up in happiness to his singing.

"And do you, Jessica Crane, take Jose Carioca to be your husband in sickness and in health for richer or for poor as long as you both shall live?" Jessica took his hand.

"I do." She said.

Then she began to sing.

People will tell ya that this kind of love will fade

That being in love like this is only a phase

But baby after all this time ain't nothin' changed

All you gotta do is look at me that way

And there you go

Makin' me fall in love again

There you go

Makin' me fall in love again

Oh and I gotta tell ya, there's nothin' better

You and me together, workin' on forever

Everyday with you is always somethin' new

You only gotta be yourself

And there you go

Makin' me fall in love again

Baby sometimes you can say the craziest things

I love how you don't care what nobody thinks

You're highly original, totally in-typical

Never change

All I gotta do is look at your smiling face

And there you go

Makin' me fall in love again

There you go

Makin' me fall in love again

Oh and I gotta tell ya, there's nothin' better

You and me together, workin' on forever

Everyday with you is always somethin' new

You only gotta be yourself

And there you go

Makin' me fall in love again

You're my sunshine, you're my rain

Sure feels good to know you feel the same

I gotta tell ya, there's nothin' better

You and me together, workin' on forever

Everyday with you is always somethin' new

You only gotta be yourself

And there you go

Makin' me fall in love again

There you go

Makin' me fall in love again

There you go

Makin' me fall in love again

There you go, there you go

Jose spun her around, dipped her and kissed her. 

She kissed him right back. 

"I now pronounce you Mr. and Mrs. Jose Carioca."

They made their way back up the aisle. 

Rose petals were tossed on them and cheers were heard.
