Secretly Married to a Chaebol Alpha-Chapter 213: WEDDING PREPARATIONS

"DAD, DADDY, I wanna wear matching shirts with you, too!"

Pfft.

Garam smiled at Song Gunwoo’s cute tantrum.

Of course, he already knew that his son would react that way.

"We got you the same shirt, baby," Garam assured his son. Since Song Gunwoo was bigger than average elementary school students, the shop carried his size even though the shirts were meant for adults. "But before you change your clothes..."

Garam looked at Song Sihyuk.

Then the Alpha bent down on his knees and handed the small bouquet of sunflowers to their son.

"Gunwoo-ya, your dad and I prepared these flowers for you."

Song Gunwoo looked confused, but he still accepted the flowers. "But I’m a guy, Daddy. And I’m an Alpha. Why are you giving me flowers?"

Aigooya.

"Gunwoo-ya, it’s okay for men and Alphas to receive flowers," Song Sihyuk said to their son gently. "Your dad and I gave you flowers just because we wanted you to know that we love you. And because we love you, we want you to have all the pretty things in the world."

Song Gunwoo’s face beamed, obviously happy with what his Alpha father just said.

Aww.

Garam couldn’t believe that he was hearing those words from Song Sihyuk.

After all, the Alpha used to have a very toxic masculinity.

There was even a time where Hyung almost raised our son as a stereotypical Alpha.

He was glad that his (future) husband changed drastically.

And he wasn’t the only one happy with that change.

"Dear, you turned our son into a decent human being."

Pfft.

Garam smiled at what his Omega father-in-law said.

"Admittedly, it was my fault why Song Sihyuk grew up the way he did," his Alpha father-in-law said. "Thank you for bringing our son back to the right path, Garam-ah."

Right?

I did well.

However...

"Sihyuk Hyung also deserves credit, Appa, Abeoji," Garam said to his in-laws politely. "Sihyuk Hyung wanted to change, and he did well to keep his promise to treasure me properly this time."

***

"SHOULD WE fly all of our guests to our wedding destination?"

Garam realized that he asked a stupid question when Song Sihyuk looked at him, confused.

It was as if the Alpha was wondering if Garam had forgotten who he was talking to.

Right, my fiancé is a chaebol.

Anyway, as soon as they returned to Korea, they started preparing for their wedding.

Hence, Garam was on the bed— busy lying down on his stomach— while Song Sihyuk was busy answering emails in his laptop.

Despite working, the Alpha still listened to him intently.

"Of course, we’re flying all our guests to our wedding destination, honey. We’ll also fly them back home," Song Sihyuk said. "Plus, we’ll take care of their accommodations and everything. All they have to do is show up." 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

Yeah, now Garam felt stupid for asking.

Even so, I have to ask.

"Hyung, just to make sure, our wedding budget is... unlimited?"

"Yeah, sky is the limit."

"Then can we also take care of the guests’ outfits? I know that in our culture, we dress down when attending weddings so as to not overshadow the couple getting married. But since our wedding destination is a beautiful castle, I want everyone to wear fancy clothes— I want the guests to look like aristocrats attending a royal wedding."

"Oh, is that the wedding theme you want?"

"Yes, Hyung."

"Alright then."

"I want to see Gunwoo dressed like a prince."

"I’ll ask my secretary to gather a group of fashion stylists and designers for that. But if you have a designer in mind, tell me."

"I don’t have a designer in mind, but I have the design I want our baby to wear."

"Okay, send it to me later," Song Sihyuk said, raising an eyebrow. "How about you? What do you want to wear for our wedding? We already have the date, wedding location, and other venues secured. And we already have a rough estimation of how many guests we’re inviting. So, it’s about time we start discussing our wedding suits." The Alpha paused for a moment, and then tilted his head to one side. "Oh, it’s a wedding dress for me."

Pfft.

Hyung knows I was only joking, and yet...

Garam couldn’t help but laugh. "Should we go wedding dress shopping tomorrow, Hyung?"

***

OH, WOW.

Garam wanted to make fun of Song Sihyuk after seeing his fiancé wear a strapless wedding gown.

But he couldn’t do it.

Sihyuk Hyung looks like a pretty female Alpha.

Yeah, the Alpha was also wearing make-up and a wig.

When did everything escalate to this?

First of all, the luxury boutique for wedding gowns and suits closed its store for their visit.

Then Song Sihyuk’s secretary arranged a glam team to make them pretty.

Yes, Garam also got dolled up.

He wore a ready-made white suit, but it still fitted him like a glove.

"How do I look, Garam-ah?"

"Pretty," Garam answered sincerely. "Hyung, you are pretty."

Sure, Song Sihyuk had broad shoulders.

But so what?

Women with such body type were also attractive.

Plus...

Hyung is really pretty with long hair and make-up.

The wig that Song Sihyuk wore was one with a half-up Dutch braid hairstyle.

"You’re not making fun of me, are you?"

"Hyung, you know how obsessed I am with your face. I’ll never make fun of your looks. It’s something I’m always grateful for."

And I’m glad that our son inherited Hyung’s visuals.

"Right. I’m grateful that I was born with this face," Song Sihyuk said, laughing softly while shaking his head. "If I were ugly, you’d probably never give me a second chance."

"Of course. If you’re ugly, you should at least be kind. You can’t be ugly and evil at the same time."

For the record, he was half-joking.

Whether you’re handsome or not, you should be kind. But I guess I don’t have the right to say that anymore. After all, I’m marrying this scumbag again.

Yes, Garam loved Song Sihyuk.

And, yes, the Alpha had already changed.

But Sihyuk Hyung is still a bad person, especially towards other people— and that’s something I have to live by.

"What are you thinking, Garam-ah?"

"I’m happy that you took this seriously, Hyung."

"Of course, I want to look good in our wedding."

Garam smiled, and then he cupped Song Sihyuk’s face between his hands. "No, I don’t want other people to see this side of you, Hyung. This look should be exclusive to me."

Song Sihyuk tilted his head to one side. "But you said you want me to wear a wedding dress. I figured not during the ceremony itself, but I thought you’d ask me to wear this during the reception."

"Well, that’s the plan. But seeing how pretty you are, I changed my mind."

The Alpha chuckled. "I like it when you’re being possessive of me, honey."

"It’s your fault for being pretty."

Again, Song Sihyuk laughed softly. "Let’s fly to Italy next week."

"For what, Hyung?"

"For our tailored wedding suits. I want my favorite designer to make them for us. Will that be alright?"

"Oh, of course. But I’m also okay with a ready-made suit, Hyung."

"No, absolutely not," Song Sihyuk said firmly. "We’re going for tailored suits. We’ll choose the design, the fabric, the materials, and everything needed to make the perfect wedding suits for us— and this is my non-negotiable, Garam-ah. We’re not going to get married in ready-made suits."

Aigooya.

"Alright. Italy it is, then."

Song Sihyuk smiled, satisfied. "How about you, honey? What’s your non-negotiable?’

"My guests. I want my former group members to sing in our wedding, Hyung."

"Uh, sure. What else?"

"That’s it. I think we can entrust most of the preparations to the wedding organizers. Since I already gave them the theme that I want, I’ll let them take care of the other stuff."

"Okay, let’s do that. I don’t want you to get stressed out."

"That’s the thing, Hyung."

"Hmm?"

"I don’t feel stressed because I don’t have to worry about the budget. So, I can do whatever I want. And I won’t be doing it alone either. You hired a big, elite team of wedding organizers to help me, after all. That’s why I can take it easy."

"Good to hear that. One of the few good things about me is my money. I’m glad that I’m able to provide a comfortable life for you, honey."

Pfft.

At least, Hyung is self-aware.

"Let’s take a picture, Hyung," Garam said, changing the topic. Song Sihyuk, as a good provider, was something that didn’t need to be questioned, after all. "I don’t want to forget this look."

Song Sihyuk smiled while ruffling Garam’s hair. "Maybe I should wear this on our honeymoon."

Oh?

WEDDING FOOD TESTING.

That was one of the few things that Garam didn’t want to leave to the wedding organizers.

I want to enjoy the food at my wedding.

Hence, that weekend, he went wedding food testing with Song Sihyuk, Song Gunwoo, and his parents-in-law.

Yep, they brought his Omega and Alpha father-in-law with them.

I want my in-laws to be a part of the preparation.

Their family chose a caterer that they liked best.

After that, Song Sihyuk booked the banquet hall in the hotel owned by SG Group.

The caterer then prepared a variety of different menu options like cocktail hour bites, plated appetizers, entrées, and desserts.

It was hard to choose because everything tasted good.

But, of course, there were dishes that stood out.

"I like this truffle chestnut cream soup with toasted cheese brioche melba."

That was his Alpha father-in-law’s choice for the appetizer.

"This angus beef tenderloin steak is delicious. The roasted vegetables and mashed potato that came with it are both good, too."

That was his Omega father-in-law’s choice for the entrée.

"I love the lemon sherbet, Dad," Song Gunwoo said, his eyes sparkling. "How about you?"

"Oh, I love the white chocolate mousse," Garam said, smiling. Then he looked at Song Sihyuk. The Alpha wasn’t a foodie. But Song Sihyuk was clearly enjoying the food testing since it was for their wedding. "How about you, Hyung?"

"I like everything that you and Gunwoo chose," Song Sihyuk said. "But the dacquoise torte with coffee cream stood out for me. It’s not too sweet, so I enjoyed it."

That was nice to hear from Song Sihyuk.

Hyung isn’t a fan of sweets, so he must have really liked the dacquoise cake.

Anyway, dacquoise cake was a cake made of sweet, nutty meringue.

I also like it, so...

"Then should we choose that as our wedding cake, Hyung?"

Song Sihyuk looked surprised by his suggestion. "Are you sure, Garam-ah? Coffee cream isn’t exactly a fan-favorite when it comes to wedding cake flavor and fillings."

"So what? It’s our wedding, Hyung. We get to choose what we like to eat. Thankfully, none of us is allergic to nuts. If some of the guests are allergic to nuts, then let’s prepare extra cakes with different flavors. But the dacquoise cake will be the main star."

Song Sihyuk’s face beamed.

The Alpha was clearly happy that Garam prioritized him above other people.

Well, Hyung is paying for everything— he deserves to have the wedding cake he wants.

After tasting every dish that was served by the caterer, they pretty much had a complete menu already.

Garam and Song Sihyuk decided to taste the cocktails later, with just the two of them.

We don’t want Gunwoo to see us drinking, even if it’s just for tasting.

Anyway, that was pretty much it.

I feel like something is missing, though.

To be honest, Garam knew what he wanted to add.

But he was embarrassed to say it.

"What’s wrong, honey?" Song Sihyuk asked worriedly. "Are you dissatisfied with something? We can try other caterers if you want."

The staff of the catering service they hired flinched, obviously scared to be replaced.

"No, it’s not like that, Hyung," Garam said while shaking his head. "I actually wanted to add something in the menu, but I’m afraid that it might ruin the atmosphere. My idea is kinda tacky for a chaebol’s wedding. I don’t want the guests to say something bad behind our back."

"Don’t worry about that, honey. If someone says something bad about our wedding, then we’ll send them home."

His in-laws nodded, completely agreeing with Song Sihyuk.

That encouraged Garam to be honest.

Here goes nothing.

"I want to add a ramen station since I miss eating Korean cup noodles when we’re overseas," Garam said, feeling shy. "And I also want to add a food truck of Gunwoo’s favorite American fast-food restaurant. I figured the guests might also enjoy fries and burgers during the latter part of the reception."

To be honest, he was afraid that Song Sihyuk and his in-laws might find his idea tacky.

However, the opposite happened.

"That’s brilliant, honey," Song Sihyuk said, smiling. "I love the idea. Let’s do it— a ramen station and a food truck."

"I love fries and burgers!" Song Gunwoo said excitedly, clapping. "Thank you, Dad!"

"The ramen station is genius," his Alpha father-in-law said while nodding. "Why didn’t we think of that before?"

"I know, right?" his Omega father-in-law agreed with his Alpha father-in-law. "Let’s copy our Garam’s idea for our renewal of vows."

Whew.

Garam was glad and relieved that his family loved his idea.

"Honey, if you have more ideas, don’t hesitate to tell me," Song Sihyuk said encouragingly. "Don’t think about what the guests would say. It’s our wedding, it’s your special day. You get to do whatever you want. I’ll support everything."

Aww.

Garam realized one important thing.

Aside from the unlimited budget, the wedding preparation is also going smoothly, thanks to Hyung’s full support.
