In the weeks that followed their engagement, New York seemed to blossom alongside Peter and Gwen's love. The stark lines of the city softened, as if reflecting the joy that bubbled up in their hearts every time they thought about the future they were going to build together.

Wedding preparations began in earnest, with both excitement and the slight anxiety that comes with planning such a significant event. They wanted a ceremony that reflected their unique bond, one that celebrated not just their love, but the journey that had brought them to this point.

Choosing a venue became their first adventure. Peter and Gwen spent their weekends visiting locations, hand in hand, imagining the possibilities. They settled on a beautiful botanical garden within the city, a place where nature thrived amidst urban sprawl. It was symbolic, a haven of beauty and peace that resonated with their own oasis of calm they found in each other.

Gwen's dress was another chapter in their prenuptial tale. She wanted something simple yet elegant, a gown that didn't shout for attention but whispered of timeless grace. They found the perfect dress in a small boutique in SoHo, its ivory fabric flowing like water, with delicate lace that seemed to capture Gwen's own strength and finesse.

Peter's attire was less of an ordeal. He opted for a classic black tuxedo, understated but sharp—much like the man himself. Gwen teased him that the hardest part of the process was getting him out of his Spider-Man suit and into a fitting, but Peter's retort was that nothing was too much for their special day.

The guest list was a mix of family, friends, and a few faces from their life as heroes. MJ, Aunt May, Harry Osborn, and even a tentative invitation sent to a certain reclusive billionaire known for his own metal suits. It was a mishmash of the people they loved and those who had shaped their paths in meaningful ways.

As the days slipped by and the wedding drew closer, Peter and Gwen found their nights spent in conversation, discussing their hopes and dreams, fears and laughter. They talked about the future, about the possibility of children, and the world they wanted to give them—a world where love was the strongest power of all.

One evening, as the city hummed below, Peter and Gwen shared a quiet moment in her apartment. They sat on the floor, surrounded by a fortress of wedding planning books and fabric swatches, the detritus of their shared endeavor.

Gwen looked up from a floral arrangement catalog, her eyes meeting Peter's. "We're really doing this, aren't we?" she said, a note of wonder in her voice.

Peter nodded, reaching over to tuck a strand of her hair behind her ear. "We are. And it's going to be perfect because it's ours."

Their gazes locked, and the air between them seemed to shimmer with the intensity of their connection. Peter leaned in, his lips capturing Gwen's in a kiss that spoke of the depth of his love, a promise of forever sealed with each gentle brush of his mouth against hers.

The kiss deepened, and the world fell away, leaving nothing but the two of them, wrapped in the warmth of their embrace. Words were unnecessary when their bodies spoke the language of love so fluently, each touch a tender verse in the poetry they created together.

As they pulled apart, breathless and with hearts racing, Gwen whispered, "I love you, Peter Parker. More than I ever thought possible."

"And I love you, Gwen Stacy," Peter replied, his voice thick with emotion. "To the moon and back, to the stars and beyond."

Their laughter filled the room, a melody that danced with the night's breeze. And as the planning continued, they moved together in a harmonious rhythm, their love the conductor of the symphony that was their life.

The night was tender, filled with the soft whispers of shared secrets and the quiet planning of a future that was theirs to shape. Their love was a testament to the power of the human heart, a force that could overcome any obstacle, any challenge.

And as they eventually drifted to sleep, entwined in each other's arms, the city that never sleeps kept watch over them, a guardian to their dreams and the life they were building, one heartbeat at a time.
