Mary and Francis' Wedding took place in France in the winter of 1558.

During the Event[]

Mary is being prepared for the wedding by her Ladies-in-Waiting while talking to her mother, Marie de Guise. Marie shows her daughter earrings that her husband, King James V, once gave her. She reminds Mary to "make heirs" as quickly as she can, even though Scotland has done just fine without any.

At the wedding, Nostradamus overhears a girl singing a song that is ominously familiar to him. When he goes up to her and asks her why she is singing that song, she replies that she was paid by a girl to do so.

Mary walks down the aisle with Kenna, Greer, and Lola behind her as the whole of French court watches. Upon reaching Francis, they kneel while holding hands and sign the wedding certificate. Before signing, Mary glances behind her at her mother, receiving a reassuring nod from her that prompts her to sign it. With that, the festivities begin.

Francis and Mary are showered with flowers by the guests as they enter the banquet hall. They dance for the first time as husband and wife, with the ladies joining in, and soon the rest of the guests were danding around them.

Not long after that Mary entered Francis’ is room for the bedding ceremony. Royals, nobles, and their priest had all gathered to witness their consummation. However not long into it, Mary noticed Sebastian had entered. Francis saw her looking so he looked too. Wanting Francis to ignore his brother's presence, Mary continued to kiss his neck.
