Chapter Twenty-One

The spa had done wonders for Lacy, who was helping Kaylie into her wedding dress while Camille took photographs and Chelsea and Marie assisted Danica with her bridal gown. Lacy’s hair was shiny, each curl in place, and while her skin had looked tired that morning, it was now lustrous and revived. Each of the girls wore a gold strapless bridesmaid gown that shimmered against the light and accentuated their slim figures. Danica, Blake, Chaz, and Kaylie had given them each a pair of pearl earrings to commemorate the day and to thank them for the generosity of their time and energy.

The girls chatted about how beautiful Kaylie looked in her sleek sleeveless satin gown, which matched the style of the bridesmaids’ except for the length. Her straight hair framed her face, and Danica thought she’d never seen Kaylie look so beautiful.

Chelsea zipped Danica’s dress and said, “Voilà!”

There was a collective gasp in the room.

“What?” Danica frantically looked down at her gown, expecting to see a big stain or tear, something to cause such a reaction.

“Danica,” Kaylie said in a breathy voice, “you are the most beautiful bride I have ever seen.”

Danica turned to look in the mirror as Chelsea and Marie came up behind her, gazing over her shoulder.

“Without a doubt,” Marie said.

“Gorgeous,” Camille agreed.

While Kaylie’s dress hugged her body, sweeping into a glamorous flare just below her knees, Danica wore an elegant David Tutera strapless gown with a basque waistline. It was made of reembroidered lace and three-dimensional organza, and it flared into a structured accordion pleated skirt with a chapel-length train. The hairdressers had lifted the sides of her hair and secured it with sequined combs, leaving tendrils of curls dangling sexily to her chin. She touched the slim waist she saw in the mirror, ran her fingers gently up her neck. She could hardly believe that the gorgeous woman looking back at her was, in fact, her. She touched her cheek, her flat stomach, the pleats in the skirt. Danica was mesmerized by her own image, her heart fluttering in her chest. I am a beautiful bride.

Someone answered a knock at the door, and a minute later, her mother walked in. Helen covered her mouth in awe. Tears welled and fell without warning. “Danica,” she whispered. Then she turned to Kaylie. “Oh my goodness. You’re positively beautiful.” She turned back to Danica, whose face had heated and flushed. “Both of you.”

Kaylie broke the trance of the gowns. “Mom? Where are Trev and Lexi?”

“Oh, they’re with Michelle and the others.”

“Did they eat? Are they ready?”

“Yes, Kaylie. Bathed, fed, dressed, and being perfect little angels. I just had to see my two beautiful girls.”

“Thank you, Mom.” Danica hugged and kissed her mother, then wiped away the light red lipstick print she’d left on her cheek. “Did you see Blake and Chaz?”

“Oh yes,” she said. “They’re nervous as the day is long, but ready. And so handsome.”

“When are they going over? When can we go downstairs?” Kaylie asked.

“You girls are going to go first.
