    A wedding dress should be perfect for the bride and no one else. That's what Georgiana thought before her boyfriend, Christian, proposed to her. After the engagement, she started getting suggestions from everyone. Some opinions carried more weight than others. Her grandmother wanted her to wear a lace A-line wedding dress.

You have no experience with prom dresses. This dress will be horrible to welcome your guests. And how will Christian manage to reach you through all these layers? » Georgiana looked at herself in the mirror. It was big, but it was the one she wanted.
