Briar
They finally arrived at the wedding banquet hall.
And thankfully—
everything looked exactly the way Briar envisioned it.
Elegant chandeliers glowed warmly across the reception hall.
The soft gold-and-white motif shimmered beautifully beneath the lights.
Fresh flowers decorated every table.
Candles flickered gently around the room.
And everywhere she looked—
people were smiling.
Happy.
Satisfied.
Briar and Jenny remained standing quietly near the side of the hall, attentively observing everything from afar like they always did during events.
Alert.
Watching every little detail.
Ready to solve any problem before anyone even notices one existed.
Their crew members moved efficiently around the venue, assisting guests, refilling drinks, guiding people toward tables, and making sure food service remained smooth and organized.
Briar's eyes automatically wandered toward the buffet stations.
Everything remained fully stocked.
Good.
She hated running out of food during receptions.
For her, guests should leave weddings feeling happy and well taken care of.
"Another successful wedding event, Briar," Jenny commented softly beside her while smiling proudly.
Briar looked toward her best friend warmly.
"Thank you for always being beside me, Jen."
Then she squeezed Jenny's arm gently.
"This wouldn't be possible without you."
Jenny immediately shook her head.
"No."
Then she smiled softly.
"This is your vision, Briar. Your brain created all this. I'm only following your instructions."
Briar looked around the beautifully decorated reception hall again.
"That may be true," she admitted, "but without your heart in what we do..."
She smiled warmly at Jenny.
"...none of this would feel the same."
Jenny's eyes softened instantly.
Moments like this always reminded them how far they'd come together.
From two young women dreaming about building something meaningful...
to become one of the most sought-after wedding planning teams in Switzerland.
Nearby, the newlyweds sat together with their families, laughing happily while eating dinner.
Caren looked radiant.
Josef looked completely smitten.
And honestly—
seeing them this happy made every exhausting hour worth it.
