the Ring and the Veil

Well, it's a living. You've done this enough times, you know what to expect. You and yours have also been run ragged by that puffed-up socialite Mrs. Penderghast, who wants every detail, every flower and bow and ribbon and grain of rice absolutely PERFECT. Dear Gods that may not exist, is there no pleasing the woman?
Does no one else realize that you had your own hopes and dreams once? Did anyone ever ask you how YOU felt about this Wedding Of The Year?
If that overstuffed hippopotamus asks you to completely rearranged the arrangements one more time, you swear you're going to....
Still, it pays the bills.
Better get ready. You know what to do.
