Elle [ON HOLD]

The Wedding

Standing next to Ashley as Eloise walked down the aisle was one of the longest moments of my entire life. Not only was Eloise gorgeous as she walked, but Lily and Ashley looked incredible in their dresses while I looked like a girl that someone had tried to make pretty. 

At least, next to them. I had been told many times that I was really pretty and that any guy would be lucky to be with me, but when I was next to the twins, I felt like the Ugly Duckling. Their blonde hair was done in an elaborate updo while mine was slightly less fancy since I didn't have as much hair as they did. 

My light blue dress was really pretty, with super thin straps, making it almost strapless. There was a glossy band around my waist and lower torso, just up to underneath my bust, and it floated around my legs to about mid-calf. 

Ashley had a light green dress that looked similar to mine, but hers had a thinner glossy band, and it went much farther down her legs, almost touching the floor. It did have one accent that mine lacked, though. It was three light, orange-pink roses that sat by her hip.

Lily's was light pink and completely strapless. Hers was the most simple of any of them, but it managed to be the most elegant. It was just a bodice and the skirt, but with her personality, she made it the most incredible dress this side of, well, the universe.

Eloise walked down the aisle slowly, and each step she took closer to my father, I could feel my heart beginning to beat faster and faster. 

Faster in anticipation, and faster in fear, and faster in happiness, and faster in nervousness.
