Chapter 8
"Ah, Emily wonderful timing! Isabella and I were just chatting about the wedding." Miss Selene said as Emily, Lorelai, and Rory entered the master bedroom of the Gilmore Mansion.
"Yes, it's going to be fabulous. Lorelai, Isabella needs to chat with you about a few details of the wedding." Emily said with a smile.
"Uh, mom we didn't have a planner, but all of the bridesmaids were going to get a say." Lorelai explained.
"Who are the other bridesmaids? I could have Lance go and get them right now." Emily offered.
"Wow, thanks Mom! There are only two more bridesmaids. Sookie and Liz." Lorelai said.
"I remember Sookie but who is Liz?" Emily asked.
"Liz is Luke's sister." Lorelai explained.
"Well, then I'll have Lance go and get them. In the mean time, you and Isabella can chat about some less specific details." Emily said as she left the bedroom to go and get the Gilmore driver.
"Lorelai, we have so much to discuss. Do you have any idea of a location for the wedding?" Isabella said turning to Lorelai.
"Well I was thinking maybe a church wedding." Lorelai replied.
"Do you have any idea what church?" Isabella asked.
"Well, originally there was this perfect little church but I want a totally different wedding this time. Hopefully this one will actually take place." Lorelai said with a smile and a laugh.
"Mom, what about the Stars Hollow church?" Rory piped in.
"Yeah, you know I think a good old fashioned Stars Hollow wedding would be perfect." Lorelai said.
"Alright, where would you like to hold the reception?" Isabella asked making a note on her clipboard.
"I think we'll have the reception in the town square." Lorelai replied.
"Ok." Isabella said writing another note on her clipboard. Then Emily entered with Sookie and Liz.
"Lorelai!" they cried as they ran over to hug her.
"Hey guys!" Lorelai replied.
"So, what have you guys decided so far?" Liz asked once the greetings were out of the way.
"Yes, leave nothing out." Sookie added.
"Well, we're going to do it Stars Hollow style. We'll get married in the church and have the reception in the square." Lorelai answered.
"Oh that sounds perfect! You and Luke in the gazebo; I can see it perfectly." Sookie squealed.
"My brother is gonna love it, Lorelai." Liz put in.
"Oh, Isabella I forgot to mention that my bridesmaids are not just bridesmaids." Lorelai said turning to Isabella.
"I'm afraid I don't understand." Isabella replied with a puzzled frown.
"Well you see Isabella, I'm a journalist so I'm taking care of the announcement in the paper." Rory began.
"Yeah, and I make jewelry so I'm taking care of that for the bride and all the bridesmaids." Liz added.
"I'm a chef so I'm taking care of the cake." Sookie put in.
"Oh Isabella, Sookie is a fabulous chef. Just wait until you taste her cooking. It's to die for!" Emily piped up.
"Yeah, so you can cross that stuff off of your little list there. Well it's a wedding so the list isn't that little I'm sure, but oh never mind." Lorelai said to Isabella.
"Now my dears it is time to select the most important fashion choice of Lorelai's life." Miss Selene cut in.
"Oh yes!" everyone cried.
"Well, we could go with a long sleeved lacey dress. Oh, and a long floor length veil." Miss Selene suggested as she produced said items.
"Um, no." Lorelai said.
"Miss Selene, Lorelai is going to wear a tiara not a veil." Emily put in.
"Very well Emily. Lorelai, please do you have a basic idea of what kind of dress you would like?" Miss Selene said turning to Lorelai.
"Well, I was thinking a strapless with a heart-shaped bosom and tiny beads all over it. Oh and I want it floor length." Lorelai replied.
"That would be gorgeous." Liz gushed.
"I'll match the cake to the dress." Sookie squealed.
"I have just the dress." Miss Selene said as she bustled off to get it. She returned with a stunning dress.
"Oh My God! It's perfect!" Lorelai gasped.
"Let's try it on." Miss Selene said. Lorelai took the dress and tried it on. She came out and did a twirl.
"It's perfect!" everyone exclaimed.
"Yep, it's the one!" Lorelai called eagerly.
