Jess's POV

The birds are chirping, the trees are swaying, and it's Emma's wedding day.

"Jess, I need you!" She yells to me from the living room. The bridesmaids and Emma all stayed at Darcy and I's house, while Stewart and the groomsmen all stayed at Emma's house. Emma is the second one of us book club girls to get married. Well, have a wedding. Tristan and Cassidy eloped at a courthouse. Mrs. Sloane was not happy but now she's over it after realizing she still has Chloe. Megan and Simon already had their wedding. It was amazing. It was French themed, and Gigi made the food. Darcy and I want to get married, of course, but I don't know when. I want to so badly, I mean we live together for Pete sake. I'm 25, I'm out of college, I've got a good job, it's the perfect time.

I hurry downstairs where I find Emma staring at her wedding dress. Her face looks panicked.

"What's wrong?" I ask calmly so she doesn't freak out any more than she already is.

"What if my wedding dress doesn't fit?" She asks. I sigh. This is her third panic attack today and it's only 9 am.

"You just tried it on two weeks ago, it fit then."

"But what if I gained weight?" She looks down at her stomach and frowns.

"You didn't gain weight in two weeks."

"How do you know? Weddings are stressful."

I roll my eyes. "Just try it on."

"I'm scared."

"Em, it'll be fine just try it on."

"Fine." With that she grabs her dress and runs upstairs.

"What was that about?" Megan asks coming in the room with a ginormous bag.

"Nothing. What is that for?" I point to the bag that seems to be bulging at the seams.

Like Mary Poppins she pulls out a flat iron, 3 hairbrushes, a bag full of bobby pins, and almost 10 makeup pallets.

"Emma come on; we need to do your hair! The updo you chose is going to take forever." She yells.

"One sec, we're just buttoning the dress." Becca shouts back down. Cassidy bursts through the front door.

"I've got the coffee you wanted!" She announces. Becca comes rushing downstairs.

"Oh my god I needed this." She says as she snatches the coffee out of Cassidy's hand and takes a huge gulp.

"Where's Emma?" Megan asks impatiently.

"She wanted to make a big entrance. Oh, that reminds me; everyone come over to the stairs." We all watch as Emma walks down the stairs in her dress. It's a sleeveless ballgown dress with a sweetheart neckline. She looks gorgeous even when her hair is in a messy bun and she doesn't have any makeup on.

"Okay so Becca is going to do your makeup and I'm going to do your hair." Megan explains while heating up the flat iron.

"Cassidy and I are going to go to the Orchard house and help the guys set up." I tell them. Emma is having her Ceremony at the Orchard house which I think is so cute. The reception is at a fancy hotel near Boston.

"Okay. Be back at 9:45 so we can get you guys ready." Becca replies.

Cassidy and I leave and drive to the Orchard house. Simon, Tristan, and Theo are already there putting the finishing touches on the chairs.

"Nice work." Cassidy says examining the purple ribbons that have been weaved through the chairs.

"No kidding. The flowers look gorgeous" I add.
