Chapter 16 A Day In The Life
Monday
Mary got out of bed, and was on her way to the shower. The house was still and quiet. She silently walked to the bathroom, in case everyone was still sleeping.
She soon came back in her room and pulled out a dress. She let her hair out of the towel and blow-dried each section. Pulling the curling iron out, she turned it on high and let it heat up. She then slid on the dress after putting on her undergarments. The cherry red dress hugged the curves in Mary's body and ended right above her knees. The white halter strap revealed Mary's straight shoulders.
She picked up the curling iron and fixed the curls in her hair, giving them a prettier style. After grabbing her Gucci purse (was her Mother's), she slid on a white sling back wedge, with a small bow on the open toe.
She was surprised to see the twins and Joey sitting on the couch downstairs. They were still in their pajamas, but they were awake. They were all staring at the TV screen and at the same time turned their head to look at Mary. Joey looked at her from head to toe, enjoying her outfit. "Wow, you look amazing."
Mary laughed at his comment, something he's been doing a lot. "Thanks. I'm going in like fifteen minutes. I'm assuming you don't want to come."
"Well…what is it going to be about?"
"Well I'd like you to come, because we're discussing music. We're also going to be talking about decorations, flowers, and accessories. And I'll make you leave for the accessory part."
"I'll come. Let me get showered and I'll throw something on."
"Hello. How are you?" Claudia kindly greeted, leading them into a different room then last time. This room was painted pink, with a large desk in the middle and four chairs in front on the desk and one behind it. The room had many decorations and a few pictures of Claudia and he family. On the desk were many papers, a few notebooks, loads of pens and pencils, a few picture frames, and an accordion folder.
"I'm good, you?"
"Good, and is this your fiancée?" She questioned, forming a larger smile.
"Yes, this is Joey. The one I've been telling you about."
"Nice to meet you." Claudia stuck her hand out, as a polite gesture.
"Nice to meet you too." He stuck his hand out as well and shook hands with her.
"Ok, you two can have a seat and we'll start with music."
"Ok, well I like the song, I love you, by Celine Dion. That's the song that I made you listen to yesterday." Mary reminded, after sitting down in the soft and comfortable chair.
"Oh yeah! I really like song for our first song."
They talked some more about music, before moving on to decorations, flowers and accessories. She found a few pairs of shoes and purses, but wanted to come back with everyone else to choose. They were also going to pick out bride's maid dresses.
Next Day
They once again entered the wedding place and were once again greeted by Claudia, this time they were led into a different room. This room was the other two rooms combined. The shoes and bags Mary chose and the bride's maid dresses/ mother of the bride (in this case the groom) dresses she picked out, were in the room.
Mary pulled the first pair of shoes forward and slid them on her feet. The white shoe was a sling back, with a buckle on the strap and a five and a half-inch heel. On the open toe was a little bow. "I really like those ones."
"Me too." Her five-year-old cousin, Meredith agreed.
"Those look beautiful sweetie and I don't even know what the dress looks like." Her Aunt Samantha complimented.
"Ok, well let me try on the second pair." Mary pulled the second box forward and slid on a pure white closed four inch heel. The third shoe was four-inch heel sandal, with an ankle strap. The sandal was white, as well and had three straps going across the top of her foot. "So which was your favorite."
"The first." Everyone said in unison as if it was rehearsed for weeks.
"Wow, ok. You guys think alike." Mary laughed. "Ok, well let me show you the bridesmaid dresses and the flower girl dresses."
The first dress was an aqua blue knee length dress, with a white floral pattern and spaghetti straps. The second dress was a long elegant satin blue dress, with a deep v-neck and a glistening brooch. There was gather fabric at the waist and it was sleeveless. The third dress was a light pink dress that went a little bit past the knees. It was strapless and at the empire line was a light purple sash that dropped down, with a pink flower on the left side. The fourth dress was coral with a brown waistband. The strapless dress was knee length and had a bubbled hem. "Like?"
The bridesmaid's nodded their heads and after trying on they decided they'd wear dress number three and Evie (Joey's Mom) would wear dress number two.
Mary then started to show the Flower girl dresses. Meredith soon decided on the same colored dress as the bridesmaid dresses. The dress was tea length and had a boat-neck, with a skirt overlay and a pleated waistband and the same flower as the bridesmaid dresses.
After a few weeks everything was planned, fitted, and ready for the wedding. It was now a matter of waiting.
I'm so, so, so sorry for the delay. I have been so busy. I'm back to updating though. The next chapter is the last chapter, but I'm doing a sequel! Also to my winners, I'm working on reading, so give me some time. Review!
