Chapter 10: Finding the perfect dress
By three o'clock I thought all hope was lost, and i wasn't going to find my dress, well at least not today. So I turned to Honor and said, "Honor, if we don't find my dress in the next store, we are done for the day. I am tired and I want to go home." Honor just smiled and said, "Rory, do you know how long it took me to find my dress? It took 3 shopping trips, at least you don't have to please anybody but yourself. You don't have Shira Huntzburger approving all you decisions, do you? She was right, I thought I had it bad, I don't i'm chosing my own wedding. Honor's was beautiful but everyone knows, that was Shira's dream, not her's. "Your right Honor, let go in." I was looking through all these dresses and then I found the one. Sheath style with a deep V-neckline and zipper over inner corset closure. A romantic embellished lace bodice with sparkling beaded shoulder straps. A beaded motif. Finished off with a Satin skirt that introduces the train. It's pefect for a summer wedding, and will look lovely at the Inn. We decided to have the wedding there. Logan and I decided that we wanted a perfect place, that would look beautiful and can hold at least 200 people. Actually Finn sugested the Inn, he said it would go lovely with my skin tone and Logan won't look weird standing in the gardens. The garden is goign to be full of deep red roses. It's going to be perfect. I'm standing here stareing at this dress, just thinking of how perfect it is. When I finally speak all I said was, " I found it." Honor seemed suprised that I actually found the dress. She came over and said, "Rory, you know this dress is perfect. You are going to look amazing in this dress. Logan's not going to be able to keep his hands to his self. We have to get, and look its on sale for 277.00. Go try it on." I went to the dressing room and I couldn't believe it, it fit perfectally, I promised mom, she would be the first one to see me in my dress, so I pulled out my phone and took a picture, and sent it to her. Then walked out to Honor. "OMG Rory, that dress fits you pefectlly, no alternations needed. WOW. Please tell me your buying the dress?" Honor asked very impaitentally. "Honor, of couse its perfect,". My phone started ringing, it was mom.
R: "Hey mom. whatcha think?"
L: "Rory, you looking amazing, baby girl." I could tell she was crying
R: "Are you crying mom?"
L: "Yes, im a baby okay, you sent me that picture. And all I could think is that you looked perfect, Rory. All grown up. Elegant."
R: "Thanks mom, you know I wouldn't be this way if it wasn't for you?"
L: "Yeah, kid I know. Finish shopping, come see me some time soon."
R: "This weekend, okay mom. I love you."
L: " You have no idea, kid. How much I love you." and then she hung up.
"Looks like I found the one Honor."
