The day Alyvia Reign Bolton became Alyvia Reign Danforth.

The girl sat looking at herself in the mirror, stunned by how she looked.

"You look beautiful, Liv." Gabriella complemented her as she appeared behind her in the mirror, making the Bolton girl smile.

"Yeah, Chad's not going to be able to take his eyes off of you." Taylor said, appearing on her other side, making her let out a light chuckle.

"Thanks guys." Alyvia smiled. "You know, for being here."

"We wouldn't want to be anywhere else." Taylor spoke as the duo carefully wrapped their arms around the girl's shoulders, hugging her.

"Woah, woah, woah. Careful with the bride." Kelsi called, making her way over as the trio separated. "We don't want to mess up anything."

"Kels, I think I'll be fine with a hug." Alyvia chuckled, standing up from her chair as she held her arms open. "How about one more?"

"I mean, if it's not going to hurt anything," Kelsi said, wrapping her arms around the girl.

"Dress time, dear." Mrs. Bolton called, causing the duo to pull apart as Alyvia glanced over at her mom.

"Coming mom." Alyvia said, squeezing Kelsi's hand before she followed her mom into the changing room.

After a few minutes of wiggling into the dress and her mom zipping her up, the girl was dressed and ready to go.

"Don't you look beautiful?" Mrs. Bolton gasped from behind the girl, causing Alyvia to glance up at her mom.

"Aw, mom, please don't cry." Alyvia turned to face her mom.

"You just look so breathtaking." Mrs. Bolton patted her tears away. "You've grown into a fine young woman."

"Thank you, mom." Alyvia smiled, pulling her mom into a tight hug before she pulled away. "Okay. I think I'm ready."

Mrs. Bolton walked ahead of the girl as she opened the double doors that lead back into the change room before stepping aside, allowing Alyia's bridesmaids to see her, causing the room to fill with gasps.

"Liv, you look amazing!"

"That dress was made for you!"

"So beautiful."

There were more compliments thrown her way, causing the girl to let out a chuckle. "Thanks guys."

"Oh, these came for you while you were changing." Kelsi said, carrying a giant bouquet of flowers to the girl.

"They're gorgeous." Alyvia gasped, carefully grabbing them as she inspected the white roses as the others gave the girl some space.

Alyvia carefully grabbed the card tucked inside of them.
