Bridal Stories 소설 & 이야기

Pamela’s Point of View We walk into Elysian Threads, the most renowned bridal shop in the city. The shop is famous for its elegant, handcrafted wedding dresses, each one made with precision and care. I’ve heard the waiting list here is months long, but of course, Rowan’s connections made sure we didn’t have to wait a single day.

And standing across from him was me. But not me, not really. A version of me in a past life. Frederick sank down onto one knee, his grip on her–my–hand never loosening. “Sabrina, will you marry me?” Sabrina covered her mouth with one hand. A memory suddenly sparked in my brain: Countess Sabrina from the South Smyth Islands had fallen in love with a mysterious gentleman on her beach vacation the summer prior, not knowing that her lover was actually Prince Frederick, to whom she’d been betrothed since birth.

**Tying the Knot** The days leading up to Claire and Ethan’s wedding passed in a joyful blur. The excitement in the air was palpable, and Seabreeze buzzed with anticipation as the big day approached. The entire town seemed to be involved in some way—friends and neighbors offered their help, contributing flowers from their gardens, lending decorations, and sharing recipes for the reception. It was as if the whole community was coming together to celebrate the love story that had, in many ways, been a part of all their lives.

"It's...complicated, Tiffany. Let's just say I'm in a situation, and I'm unsure about the other person's feelings." Tiffany's expression turned curious, and she gave her a 'I won't give up till you tell me' look. "Okay, fine," Camille whispered. "I'm in a contract marriage. It's not a real marriage, just a mutually beneficial arrangement." Tiffany's eyes widened. "Whoa, that's unexpected! Who's the lucky guy?" Camille's cheeks flushed. " We met coincidentally, and...it's complicated." Tiffany leaned in closer. "Complicated how? Is he gorgeous? Rich? What's the deal?"

Not immediately. Because “the story” could mean many things in my world. But the way he said it—careful, tense, slightly reluctant—already narrowed it down. I leaned back in my chair slowly. “Which story?” He swallowed. “The contract marriage.” Silence. The room didn’t change, but the atmosphere did. My gaze dropped to the tablet he was holding. I didn’t need to take it from him to know what was on it. The headlines were already predictable. He still placed it on my desk anyway.

"I, Jace Sharpe, take you, Caila Soleil, to be my lawfully wedded wife. I promise to honor and protect you, to stand beside you through the challenges of life, and to uphold the commitments we make today." No mention of love. No warmth. Just another transaction in the world of Jace Sharpe. When it was Caila’s turn, her voice trembled as she repeated the minister’s words. She stumbled over a line, her cheeks flushing, but she managed to get through it. My heart ached for her. The rings were exchanged, gleaming under the sun and the minister’s voice grew louder, signaling the moment everyone had been waiting for. By the power vested in me, I now pronounce you husband and wife. Mr. Sharpe, you

*** The next morning, Elaine's heart swelled with excitement as she walked through the doors of the elegant bridal boutique. She was about to witness a milestone moment in her dear friend Cassandra's life, the selection of her wedding dress. Cassandra was getting married in just a week, and Elaine couldn't wait to share in her joy. The boutique was a dreamland of lace, silk, and tulle. Gowns of every shape and style adorned the racks, each more beautiful than the last. Elaine's eyes sparkled with anticipation as she looked around, imagining Cassandra in the perfect dress.

BROOKS The fallout from the wedding cancellation was everywhere like wildfire, unstoppable, consuming everything in its path. Every news station, every blog, every social media outlet was abuzz with the scandal. On the surface, the official story was simple: “unforeseen personal reasons” had derailed the much-anticipated wedding between Stephan Romano and Venita White. But in the supernatural world? The whispers told a different story. Stephan Romano, the heir to the Romano throne, the once-coveted bachelor, was bonded to his stepsister. A bond that broke every rule, every taboo, every boundary. A bond so vile that it stained the Romano name beyond repair.

‎*** ‎Elliot's POV ‎Clara and I stepped into the bridal store. Our eyes wandered around, taking in the environment. The doorbell chimed behind us as Lila and our mothers, as well as the rest of our bridal train, entered too. The owner of the store ushered us into a private viewing room. ‎"Welcome to Celeste Couture Bridal. It's an honor to serve such great people today," the owner said while smiling. ‎ "Well, my assistant would cater to whatever drink you need while we go over the outfits," she added.

I asked just plainly curious about her decision to start a wedding organizing business of all the businesses out there. “I’m actually inspired by Dominic and Valentine’s story.” She admitted and that was somehow a surprise for me. “Hold up, I have got a lot of things to tell you that I haven’t told you yesterday.” She added squealing in excitement. We already talked about a lot of things yesterday and I’m not quite sure as to why she still had a lot of things to spill. “Woah, you really have a lot of stories to tell.” I trailed. “I really do. I’m naturally a talker to so bear with my mouth, okay?”
