Once the SUV was stopped in front of the classical home, strong hands shoved at Jisoo's back. "Go to your prep room," Rosé ordered. "We're right behind you!" The oldest Korean woman hit the ground running as she rushed to the house and went to her appointed dressing room. A second SUV pulled up as she disappeared into the house. The door opened and Lisa hopped out like a windup toy on crack.
"Lisa, go to your dressing room, there are some people that'll help you get ready. We'll be in and out until the ceremony starts, okay? Love you," Rosé called. Jennie pecked Lisa's cheek as the duo ran by, leaving the Thai woman standing in front of the building with a bright smile on her face.
Today was the day. The day she was finally going to marry Jisoo. She bounced off to her prep room where Mina, Jihyo, Dahyun, Jeongyeon, Irene, and Minnie were waiting for her. As she closed the door behind herself, she was engulfed in strong hugs by her excited friends before being ushered to the vanity.
"Do you trust us," Dahyun asked. The others milled around as they readied their supplies.
"Yes," Lisa told her confidently.
"Then get ready and sit tight. We'll make you the most beautiful person in the room!"
"Second," Lisa said as she looked in the mirror with a soft smile. "The second most beautiful."

"Are you we have time," Jisoo anxiously asked.
"I'm sure," Nayeon told her. She had just finished the Korean's hair when the bride started becoming antsy. "Trust me, you could stay in here until midnight and Lisa wouldn't move an inch until you were wearing her ring."
"You're right," the blushing bride agreed. Lisa would be standing at the alter waiting for her with an open heart and a bright smile.
"Is her makeup ready," Rosé asked as she, Tzuyu, Jennie, and Joy carefully took the dress out of a garment bag.
"Just about," Momo reported. Her hands gently applied shimmer around Jisoo's eyes and over the highlight on her cheeks. "How's the dress?"
"Perfect. The shoes," Jennie asked.
"Got them," Seulgi said happily as she held up a pair of beautiful ivory heels. "You two go, they need you to add the final touches on the seating area and the alter."
"After we get Jisoo in her dress," Rosé told the other preppers. "Are you ready Chichu?" Momo let the woman stand after making sure her makeup was perfect. The white dress hung on a hook, nary a wrinkle or tear in sight.
The empress waist gown had a thin layer of chiffon wrapped around the bodice and arms to make off the shoulder sleeves. A simple beaded belt gave way to long layers of chiffon reaching the floor. Jisoo stripped off her robe before stepping into the gown Jennie and Rosé held open. The two pulled it up and carefully guided Jisoo's arms through the delicate fabric before Yeri went to work on the buttons on the back.
Seulgi and Tzuyu held up either side of the skirt while Nayeon held the heeled shoes in place for the bride to step into. As Nayeon made sure the small beads hanging from the heels weren't tangled, Rosé and Jennie blew Jisoo a kiss before running to see Lisa.

Lisa walked with her step-father to the padded alter gleaming under the lights shining from above the arch. White wisteria vines entangled with fairy lights hung over the seats and aisle while white a thick row of white roses lined both sides to the path to the alter. More white roses created an arch over the gold pedestals that popped with bright red cushions, sitting back for the impending couple.
