"Oh, Ronald," Hermione sighed, shaking her head with a smile. After a pause, she reached a hand out, curling it gently along his jaw. If Ron was really anxious to the point of not wanting a ceremony, Hermione would understand, but she had the feeling that it was something Ron would regret in time.

"We could. But we have friends and family who are eager to see us on the big day, and it'll be nice to celebrate with them afterwards, won't it?" she asked, fingertips brushing lightly against the soft strands of hair by Ron's temple. "And Charlie just arrived recently, too. He'll want to watch his brother getting married."
