Mary gripped the soft silk or her designer dress. She was told delicate petals enhanced the ginger highlights in her hair. The trouble was, it wasn’t real to wear something she would be afraid to eat cake in.

She wanted to marry Joel; more than the sea washed against the shore. Whispering each morning; I love you all she dreamed about for months.

Her mother wanted a wedding brimmed with opulence.

As a girl, she dreamt of an afternoon full of colour; along with bright purple hair, a floppy dress.

‘You got to tell her, sis!’
