Castiel is nervous. He's been prepared for this moment, for fulfilling the first of his two purposes in life (to get married, the other being to procreate). Yet he can't deny the flutter of nerves. Maybe because this isn't just a cold ceremony in a cathedral, there are no reporters here, and of course, the entire Novak clan is absent, with the exception of Gabriel.
That means Castiel gets to be nervous, because it's more intimate, less rehearsed. He thinks he likes the slight tingly of nerves, but hopes they don't show on his face.
Later, some people will wonder if he hesitated the moment his and Sam's eyes met across the distance. The truth is that Castiel forgets everything he's supposed to do when he sees his future mate standing there, strikingly handsome, with warmth in his eyes, and a wonder that Castie suspects must be reflected in his own.
He swallows, takes a breath, and then joins Sam by the altar as he's supposed to.
No hesitation. Just a moment to appreciate the sight of everything the Winchesters are providing for him.
