I was ready in a simple dark blue dress that was strapless and fell just below my
knee. As Rachel’s maid of honour I was in the appropriate colour which matched
the ties that the two men wore with their very nice grey suits and white
shirts.

I turned as Angie entered the room in a dress that matched mine, she looked
stunning and so amazingly grown up it brought tears to my eyes which only
caused her to roll hers and remind me how annoying that must be when I do it.

However my attention was drawn back to the room as Angie cleared her throat and
announced the Bride. She looked stunning in a cream silk dress that was fitted
to her entire body with red and blue roses embroidered from the floor up to her
left shoulder the front was high cut as was always her preference as to hide
the scars she bore but the gown was backless and had a daring slit to the left
thigh to remove any pretence of chastity while remaining tasteful. Her long
golden hair had been expertly waved and was held back on one side by a rose
that matched the blue that we all wore.

I don’t think there was a dry eye in the house as we women watched as Rachel was
escorted by her dad and brother to the awaiting Aston Martin to be driven to
our house to marry her partner.

With a final flurry of activity Myself, Angie and Mandy loaded into one car as the
bridal party and Klara and ruby into another to take their place on the front
row for the proceedings.

It was chaos at our end organized chaos but chaos none the less. After breakfast
we had all set about getting ready and with Andy only allowing Shane in to the
master suite to do her hair we were all restricted to a much smaller area and
one bathroom. That combined with Alice, Dana, Carmen and Kit all arriving with
the Kids in tow to get set for their role as ushers. The boys in powder blue
suits sand white shirts and Al and Danes daughter in a powder blue dress in a
similar style to the bridesmaids but with covered shoulders and sandals rather
than the heals that all the adults had been given.

That being said they were all being well occupied out in the garden. Inside I stood
in the kitchen ready to go I had my hair up as I knew all the bridesmaids would
do and wore a dark blue dress mine was longer than the ones that T and Angie
had been given and had a slash cut neck and slit up the side to make up for the
unrevealing nature
