A few days after their engagement party, Buck and Laura started planning their wedding. Buck had forgiven his parents for the way they treated him after Daniel died, but he wasn't interested in having a relationship with them, and therefore, they weren't going to be involved in the wedding. Instead of a mother/son dance, there was going to be a brother/sister dance.

Laura was a fan of the 1987 movie Dirty Dancing. She and Buck took a private dance class and asked the instructor to choreograph a dance to I've Had the Time of My Life by Bill Medley and Jennifer Warnes.

Buck took his blazer off and hung it on the back of his chair. He made his way to the dance floor.

Laura stood up.

Laura made her way to the dance floor.

The DJ spun a disc, and I've Had the Time of My Life by Bill Medley and Jennifer Warnes started playing.

The photographer was standing a few inches away from the stage. He began videotaping. Laura had asked him to videotape her and Buck's first dance as a married couple and e-mail the video to her.

Now, I've had the time of my life.

Buck put his right hand on Laura's back and his left hand on her waist. He lowered her body backward. She tilted her head back. He swung her to the left. He pulled her toward him until their foreheads touched.

No, I've never felt like this before.

Buck stood behind Laura. She put her right arm in the air. His right hand moved downward until it was on her waist.

Yes, I swear, it's the truth

And I owe it all to you.

Laura's right arm slowly moved downward. Her fingertips brushed against the back of Buck's head. She turned her head and looked at him. She slowly moved her hand downward and wrapped it around her torso until it connected with the hand he had on her waist.

'Cause I've had the time of my life

And I owe it all to you.

Buck used his free hand to push Laura's body outward. She spun and moved his hand so that it was beside her. He pulled her toward him.

I've been waiting for so long

Now I've finally found someone to stand by me

We saw the writing on the wall

As we felt this magical fantasy

Now with passion in our eyes

There's no way we could disguise it secretly

So, we take each other's hand

'Cause we seem to understand the urgency.

Buck put his right hand on Laura's back and his left hand on her waist. He pressed her up against his chest, and they began to sway, their feet following the intricate patterns they had learned for weeks on end. She raised her arms and wiggled them.

Just remember

You're the one thing

I can't get enough of

So, I'll tell you something

This could be love, because

I've had the time of my life

No, I've never felt this way before

Yes, I swear, it's the truth

And I owe it all to you.

Buck made his way to the back of the room, his hips subtly shaking with each movement. Laura stood still.

With my body and soul

I want you more than you'll ever know

So, we'll just let it go

Don't be afraid to lose control

Yes, I know what's on your mind

When you say stay with me tonight

Stay with me

And remember

You're the one thing

I can't get enough of.

Buck turned around with a flourish and made his way toward Laura, his hips subtly shaking with each movement. They made eye contact. He raised his right hand, palm upward, and beckoned her closer by repeatedly moving his curled index finger toward her.

So, I'll tell you something

This could be love, because

I've had the time of my life

No, I've never felt this way before

Yes, I swear

It's the truth

And I owe it all to you.

Laura ran forward. When she reached Buck, she jumped and stretched her arms horizontally to the sides. He put his hands on her hips and lifted her over his head.

The crowd cheered.

'Cause I've had the time of my life

And I've searched through every open door

'Til I found the truth

And I owe it all to you

Now, I've had the time of my life

No, I've never felt this way before

Never felt this way

Yes, I swear, it's the truth

And I owe it all to you

I've had the time of my life

No, I've never felt this way before

Never felt this way

Yes, I swear, it's the truth

It's the truth

And I owe it all to you

'Cause I've had the time of my life

And I've searched through every open door

'Til I found the truth

And I owe it all to you.

As Buck lowered Laura toward the floor, she felt the slight pressure of his fingers in her sides. He let go of her when her feet were on the floor.

The photographer stopped videotaping.

The DJ stopped spinning the disc.

Buck returned to his seat. Laura stayed on the dance floor.

It was time for the father/daughter dance.

The DJ spun a disc, and I'll Be Your Man by Zac Brown Band started playing. Laura liked that song and wanted it to play during the father/daughter dance.

You're going to make the finest mama someday

Some man will take you away

But until then

Chase down your dreams

Laugh all the time and believe

That love's going to conquer all things

So, until then

I'll be your man.

Rodney walked up to Laura. He wrapped his arms around her waist, and she put her hands on his shoulders. They began to sway. The photographer took a picture of them.

There was a time when I thought I knew love

Until you came into this world

Time keeps on flying

But you're always going be my baby girl

So, as you walk through this life, you will see

The world's what you want it to be

But until then

Go on and dance

Dance like there's no one around

Never stop singing out loud

And until then

I'll be your man

There was a time when I thought I knew love

Until you came into this world

Time keeps on flying

But you're always going to be my baby girl

Go have a ball

Take every chance that you make

I'll always be your man

Hold on, child

Hold on tight to your old man

Hold on, child

Hold on tight to your old man

I'm going to hold you tight

Hold you tight

You're my, my, my, girl

I'll be your man.

The DJ stopped spinning the disc.

Rodney let go of Laura. They returned to their seats.

It was time for the brother/sister dance.

The DJ spun a disc, and Jada Facer and Kyson Facer's cover of Hey, Brother by Avicii started playing. Maddie stumbled across the cover on YouTube one day and showed it to Buck, and they decided to have the DJ play it during the brother/sister dance.

Hey, brother

There′s an endless road to rediscover

Hey, sister

Know the water's sweet but blood is thicker

Oh, if the sky comes falling down

For you

There′s nothing in this world I wouldn't do.

Maddie made her way to the dance floor. Buck walked up to her. He wrapped his arms around her waist, and she put her hands on his shoulders. They began to sway. The photographer took a picture of them.

Hey, brother

Do you still believe in one another?

Hey, sister

Do you still believe in love?

I wonder

Oh, if the sky comes falling down

For you

There's nothing in this world I wouldn′t do

What if I′m far from home?

Oh, brother, I will hear you call

What if I lose it all?

Oh, sister, I will help you out

Oh, if the sky comes falling down

For you

There's nothing in this world I wouldn′t do

Hey, brother

There's an endless road to rediscover

Hey, sister

Do you still believe in love?

I wonder

Oh, if the sky comes falling down

For you

There′s nothing in this world I wouldn't do

What if I′m far from home?

Oh, brother, I will hear you call

What if I lose it all?

Oh, sister, I will help you out

Oh, if the sky comes falling down

For you

There's nothing in this world I wouldn't do.

The DJ stopped spinning the disc.

Buck let go of Maddie. They returned to their seats.

The reception ended at 10:00 p.m.

Buck and Laura's ranch

11:00 p.m.

Using her cell phone, Laura checked her e-mails. She saw the video of her and Buck's first dance as a married couple. She downloaded the video.

Laura opened her cell phone's Instagram app. She changed her last name from Smith to Buckley. She changed her username from LauraSmith to LauraBuckley. She posted the video of her and Buck's first dance as a married couple, tagged Buck, and added a caption. The caption read "Our first dance as a married couple."
