Set in a time when all three pony kinds became friends without magic returning, Pipp is happily engaged to a famous unicorn pop singer named Presto Tetrachord. Ponies all over Equestria come together to watch the royal wedding. But seconds before the ceremony, Pipp, and Zipp find out via social media that Presto is having an affair. In her distress, Pipp sees earth pony, Sheriff Hitch holding a sign reading "Marry Me" and impulsively decides to marry him. Hitch is put on the spot with ponies watching in person or online, and so he goes onstage and marries Pipp.
Based on the 2022 rom com Marry Me.

This fic got mad potential man, good stuff.
I wonder if hitch is holding the sign because someone else told him to hold it for a while.
Pipsqueaks
Aight, I'm hooked. Let's see where this goes.

Actually, if you watch the movie with subtitles and read the trivia section on Pipp on G5 wiki, it is spelled with two Ps.
Oh yea, that movie. I kind of don’t remember it much since I think it was alright film. This G5 does fit great for it though.
11318329
Ohh right the way how it's spelled it was kind of weird but okay got it
Well this is a pretty interesting story so far I kind of like the setup so it looks like the celebration of Pipps wedding is coming on and she cannot wait for this after years of being hide away from the other tribes ever since sunny and Izzy brought the ponies together she was more happy meeting with this unicorn named presto another singer and it turns out they really like each other than throughout the year he finally popped the question to marry him what she said yes so she prepares everything until she got the gift from other ponies from different cities for the graduation and it looks like her older sister zipp visiting as well to see her how's she doing but they saw a particular gift and it looks like it was handmade or hooves whatever you want to call it and it's from Izzy moonbow and both of the princess knows who who Sunny and Izzy is and pipp wants to invited them despite they don't have enough invitations but she really wants them to come but both of them were kind of thinking about this whole truth not flying yet and they did not tell the public yet which that's going to be very hard well let's see how this will go on the next one
Wasn't there an Owen Wilson movie about this?
11318482
Yea, this story is the movie called "Marry Me"
So I have to wonder if Sprout would be the one to give Hitch the sign since it doesn't sound like Sunny and Izzy would be there... Wait why would Sprout be interested in Pipp's concert?
Also, would Hitch have the baby dragon? Since in the film the guy has a kid.
11318482
11318487
It's established in the description that this is based on that movie.
11318491
No. Remember this is different timeline where magic doesn't come back and Hitch hasn't found the egg.
11318520
Oh yea that's right. Forgot the egg hatches by magic
Me: Pretty sure this is the plot of a webcomic.
Reads 'based off of a film'. Checks wikipedia.
Turns out the webcomic became a movie...Weird.
It's nice to see that after Gen 4 ended this site still get stories. I really enjoyed the Gen 5 introduction movie and the animated shorts on youtube. Pipp has risen to be my favorite out of the 5. Hope this story goes well, I'm rooting for it.
Gives me a little bit of bride of discord vibes. Wonder where it’ll go
11318607
Yeah, I've seen pictures of the comic on Google. Very different.
You have my attention
Hmmmm. Ok. I'll give this a shot. Let's see where this goes
First chapter is a bit of an exposition dump that I feel like you could've just put into the summary, but I'll reserve final judgement for now.
11321891
That would make for an overly long summery, don't you think? A lot of this is stating what is said in the summary in greater detail, which is ideal for the story itself.
Interesting premise. Didn't quite catch it wasn't following the movie's plot at first (at least, as a whole), but I can see interesting developpements coming from this AU. I'll be following that one
“Time for bed… wait is that a new chapter?”
“Never mind it’s time to read”
Woot. New Chapter! Also love the names for the background ponies. It makes this more alive if that makes sense. Anyways. Hitch does need to chill and relax. He works too much. Also good on Hitch letting Sprout get a second chance...with the watchful eye of his mom.
Poor Periwinkle… definitely hope in this story take of the film we see more of the girl who took the guy because I recall we never really seen the girl at all in the movie. This story definitely sounds like we will see Periwinkle through the story.
Kind of thought Izzy would invite Sprout since I do like their ship. Man, Hitch has mares falling for him all over the place even the video games
Pipp will be in surprise.
To bad we don’t have the father’s child role in the story. I guess the dragon could had fit in but since there isn’t magic out of the picture.
That’s cool we got names for background ponies. Lots of them…
havent read the fic yet, haven't even seen the movie, but im somehow already getting flashbacks to the webcomic/graphic novel
11335495
Definitely recommend the film
The webcomic.
So none of them know that the royals can't fly, and Sprout will still end up in charge of the town while Hitch is gone? Totally not a recipe for trouble if you ask me.
Wait what when did Sunny make those figurines??
Loving this so far, can't wait to see how it develops.
Ok so it looks like hitch is looking out for the town and he's pretty happy to see other tribes are getting along thanks to Sunny and Izzy when he went to the office he saw the five girls you're basically chatting with him one was not too happy about the wedding a pony name Periwinkle that she has a crush on presto but since they're getting married she lost a chance but his gave her some positive notes that she'll find somebody who likes her it kind of helped but then some of the girls were asking him to come with them but he said now he has to protect the town and was that the girls kind of left pretty upset figures that hitch would not abandon his duty later sunny and Izzy visit him and told him the news that princess pipp invited them to the wedding but both sunny and Izzy want to invite the plus ones and sunny ask hitch to come and despite he said no to the other girls he said no as well again which he needs to lighten up a little bit so she made a promise if anything happens she won't ask him to come along anymore so with that he decided to go with them and Izzy needs to find her plus one but then hitch has a idea who she can invite I wonder who could it be I guess we'll find out next time and to be honest I was hoping that Izzy would have invited Sprout
11335571
Don't you remember Pipp opening Izzy's present in the first chapter?
11335582
Yeah I know it's just a sentence kind of confused me when it says sunny said that not Izzy
11335585
Ah, whoops. Typed Sunny instead of Izzy. Just fixed that.
So if Sunny and Izzy never met the Princesses in Zephyr Heights, then shouldn't this qualify as an AU?
So is Periwinkle going to take the marry me sign to the wedding, at which point the whole cheating reveal will happen, and then she will run away leaving Hitch holding the sign, and then Pip turns around and sees him?
I still don’t like the idea of the mane 5 not really existing, sprout still being a dick (honestly seems hes meaner here than he was in the movie) and what makes the least sense is magic not being here BUT I’m still willing to excuse it if this comfy vibe keeps going and we get a good romance out of it
11335709
I guess so. I wonder if she and presto will be antagonists
Wait, but, they can fly now... at least in canon
11336054
Yeah but in here the tribes got together without magic returning.
11336054
11336074
Yes, this an alternate universe.
i can already tell the plot of this fanfic
11318329
Two P's yes, but I am fairly certain it is "-squeaks" not "-squaks".
11339949
Oops. Sorry. You're right. Bloody misspell there.
What could possibly go wrong with that Hitch xD
I need more! I hope and soon we will have a continuation of this, It's sad that good fanfics are incomplete. So I will wait if there will be a new update. This is really getting interesting and more when I read the synopsis, honestly I get excited about the idea.
I haven't seen the movie but if I do see it, I will definitely remember this fanfic, I love this ship.

I'm glad you're enjoying it. I've currently written chapter 3 and most of chapter 4. I tend not to publish new chapters right away because I want to hold them off and go further in writing the story before looking at them and with new eyes and edit them until I feel ready to publish them. My hope is to finish writing up to chapter 5 and maybe 6 before the next episode of Make Your Mark comes out on Netflix less than a month from now. Expect earlier chapters to be published before that.
I can tell that I'm going to enjoy this story a lot, keep it up! 👍
Hey, remember that pony in G5 name Bob or Rob? Would be funny to ship there
WHAT!!! I thought Periwinkle would be the mare to cheat not some random unicorn mare... I wish it was Periwinkle, but this was a good twist for the story that I didn't see coming. Man, she needs her friends, but I don't think it was a good idea for Pipp to marry Hitch right off the bat when his friend needs comfort more than ever.
It's crazy that in real life these things do happen... crazy life being a singer that you have to be sure you want to marry this person and be faithful too.
So far this has been a good G5 take of Marry Me which I am glad isn't a complete copy of the film but its take of the concept.
