Why You Should Read This: I am ridiculously enthusiastic about this fic. It’s my favorite from this year’s McShep Match challenge. Rodney accompanies John to his brother’s wedding, leading to moments that are laugh out loud funny. This fic had me tweeting quotes as I read along, and it’s just…it’s such a feel good fic – reading it made me happy. There’s cookie making and Rodney interacting with children, discussions about dogs and a surprise appearance. There are OC’s, but I really liked them, and Rodney becomes an honorary bridesmaid. If that last bit doesn’t convince you to read, I’m not sure what will.
I loved this! I about snorted myself to pieces with the “You’re not Consuelo Vandebilt!” line.
This is my favorite fic from McShep_Match this year XD I’s so hilarious and I keep rec’ing it to everybody!
