BELLA:
"Childhood is not

from birth to a certain age.

"And at a certain age, the child is grown

and puts away childish things.

"Childhood is the kingdom

where nobody dies."

Jake! Jacob!

(ROARlNG)

Phil!

lt's happening.

(SCRAPlNG)

You just have to break them in.

l've been breaking them in. For three days.

Can l just go barefoot?

No, absolutely not.

Just thinking it's a little much, you know?

The dress and the shoes,

and all of this.

ALlCE:
No, it's exactly enough.

Tomorrow will be perfect.

Where do you want them, boss?

On either side of the aisle.

-What aisle?

-Does no one have vision?

You, go home and get lots of beauty sleep.

That's an order.

Okay.

l was just checking for cold feet.

Well, mine are toasty warm.

lt's not too late to change your mind.

What? Now you're having second thoughts?

You are.

No, l've been waiting a century

to marry you, Miss Swan.

But?

l haven't told you everything about myself.

What? You're not a virgin?

(LAUGHS)

(EXHALlNG)

Look, you can't scare me away now.

Look, a few years after Carlisle created me,

l rebelled against him.

l resented him for curbing my appetite.

And so for a while, l went off on my own.

l wanted to know how it felt to hunt.

(SCREAMlNG)

(AUDlENCE EXCLAlMS)

EDWARD:
To taste human blood.

(HEART BEATlNG RAPlDLY)

(CHOKlNG)

All the men I killed

were monsters.

And so was I.

Edward, they were all murderers.

You probably saved more lives

than you took.

Bella, that's what l told myself.

But they were all human beings.

l looked into their eyes as they died

and l saw who l was,

and what l was capable of.

And what l'll be capable of.

Why are you telling me this tonight?

Did you really think

this was gonna change my mind about you?

l just wondered

if it would change your mind about yourself,

and who you wanna see when

you look in the mirror a year from now.

l know l can do this.

Let me tell you why.

Because you did.

(SCOFFS)

You should give yourself

some credit for that.

Now, hopefully, a year from now,

l'm gonna look in the mirror

and see someone like you.

l mean, someone capable of courage

and sacrifice and love.

-(EMMETT WHlSTLES)

-What is that?

-EMMETT:
Come on! Let's go!

-l'm late for my bachelor party.

Send him out, Bella,

or we're coming in after him.

So, this party.

Will there be strippers?

(LAUGHS)

No, just a couple of mountain lions.

Maybe a few bears.

Don't worry, Bella,

we'll give him back in plenty of time.

Okay, go, before they break my house.

EMMETT:
Let's go! Let's go!

l'll meet you at the altar.

l'll be the one in white.

That was very convincing.

(ALL LAUGHlNG)

What did l say about beauty sleep?

Sorry, bad dream.

lt was wedding jitters.

Do you need some help?

l could do her hair.

Really?

Please.

l'm not offended by your choice of groom.

Just my blatant lack of respect for mortality.

Essentially.

Weddings. They bring everyone together.

Hey, so, did you find our daughter?

Are those graduation caps?

(LAUGHS) How creative!

Or weird.

Alice? Bella?

BELLA:
ln here, Mom.

(GASPS) Oh, my gosh!

You're so beautiful.

Oh, honey.

Crap! My mascara.

Mom!

Thanks.

Charlie, get in here.

You sure? l don't wanna...

l know. l look hot.

(LAUGHlNG)

We thought you needed something blue.

And something old.

-Besides your mother.

-(SCOFFS) Nice.

-lt was Grandma Swan's.

-But we added the sapphires.

lt's beautiful, you guys.

Wow. Thank you so much.

lt's your first family heirloom.

Pass on to your daughter, and her daughter.

Mom, l love it.

Nope. No smudging my masterpiece.

She's right.

Thank you.

ALlCE:
Okay.

Time for the dress!

(GASPS)

ALlCE:
Do you wanna see it?

RENE:
l want to see it!

(CLASSlCAL MUSlC PLAYlNG)

ERlC:
They have got to be related.

What a gene pool.

ERlC:
Seriously.

You've got some... The drool.

So, you think Bella's gonna be showing?

Jess, she is not pregnant.

Okay. Who else gets married at 1 8?

(BREATHlNG DEEPLY)

(SlGHlNG)

You ready?

(SOFTLY) Yeah.

Just don't let me fall, Dad.

Never.

MlNlSTER:
Ladies and gentlemen,

we are gathered here on this glorious day

to witness the union of Edward Cullen

and Bella Swan.

Please repeat after me.

l, Edward Cullen.

Take you, Bella Swan.

-Take you, Bella Swan.

-To have and to hold.

(ROMANTlC MUSlC PLAYlNG)

To have and to hold.

For better or for worse.

For richer, for poorer.

ln sickness and in health.

To love.

To cherish.

As long as we both shall live.

l do.

l love you.

(MUSlC CONTlNUES)

Have I found you

Flightless bird

Jealous

Weeping or lost you

American mouth

Big pill looming

Now I'm a fat house cat

Nursing my sore blunt tongue

Watching the warm poison rats

Curl through the wide fence cracks

(PLAYlNG lNSTRUMENTAL MUSlC)

Just thought it'd be bigger.

Yeah.

-Hi!

-Hi, guys.

We were just saying how pretty

everything is, you know, just saying.

Well, thanks so much.

You don't think it's too much?

-No.

-Not at all.

-No.

-No.

Hey, man. Nice to see you.

-l'm happy for you.

-Thank you.

l hope you'll be happy, Bella.

Thank you, Billy.

Have you heard from him?

l'm sure Jake wishes you the best.

Well, l plan on getting drunk.

They're serving up

some pretty fancy champagne.

Sue, can l get you a glass?

Sparkling fire water.

Sounds great.

CARMEN:
Bella.

-Congratulations, Edward.

-Thank you.

Bella.

Eleazar and Carmen, right?

-Mmm-hmm.

-Hola.

Yes, and these are our cousins from Alaska.

-Tanya, Kate.

-We've heard so much about you.

-Welcome to the family.

-Bienvenida.

BELLA:
Thank you.

lrina.

Come meet Bella.

-l can't do this.

-You promised.

They invited one.

lrina, he's our friend.

They killed Laurent.

He tried to kill Bella.

l don't believe that.

He wanted to be like us.

To live in peace with humans.

With me.

l'm sorry.

CARMEN:
lrina!

ELEAZAR:
Well.

Let's not monopolize the bride.

Congratulations.

BELLA:
Thank you.

Sorry.

Well, what's a wedding

without some family drama?

-Yeah.

-EMMETT:
Excuse me.

Is this on?

Hello?

(MAN WOLF-WHlSTLES)

Umm, I'd like to propose a toast.

To my new sister.

Bella, I hope you've gotten enough sleep

these last 18 years.

'Cause you won't be getting any more

for a while. (CHUCKLES)

(SlLENCE)

Well, Bella was just like everybody else,

totally mesmerized by Edward.

Or "The Hair," as l call him.

And then, suddenly,

Edward is all about Bella.

Even though she's not the captain

of the volleyball team.

I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding.

Or the president of the student council.

Edward will be a good husband.

I know this because I'm a cop.

I know things.

Like how to hunt somebody

to the ends of the Earth.

(GUESTS LAUGHlNG)

Now that you're my sister,

you'll have to get over

your aversion to fashion.

And I know how to use a gun.

Skirts, heels, handbags.

(SlNGlNG) Go to sleep, my love

Go to sleep

When you wake

You'll see me

I'd like to thank Rene and Charlie

for bringing such a wonderful person

into the world and into our lives.
