Chapter 242 Wedding Planning (2)
Chapter 242 Wedding Planning (2)
γγIn a month, the guest list had been finalized and the invitations had all been created and sent out. A lot of people were invited to their grand wedding because Gu Yechen wanted many people to witness their marriage.The chefs had also been invited and they were all extremely famous chefs from all around the world. The food choices have also been decided on, and it ended up being. . . everything, because He Xinyan wanted to try everything that was given as an option.
The priest has been invited, the bridesmaid and groomsmen chosen, the color scheme and flowers chosen, the rings bought, the dance decided on, the music chosen and performers invited.
The final things to be decided on were the most important: the location of the wedding and the wedding dress.
On this day about a month before the wedding, He Xinyan was going to try out the special wedding dresses that Qin Lai had designed for her. Wu Minger and Xu Mengya also went with her since she needed to try bridesmaid dresses as well.
Yes, you heard me right. Xu Mengya was also going to be a bridesmaid in addition to her role as the groom’s mother.
Xu Mengya had successfully convinced her husband, her son, and He Xinyan to let her be a bridesmaid by saying how she has never had the opportunity to be a bridesmaid her entire life.
At first, they were all a little hesitant since she was the mother of the groom at the wedding, so it would be a little weird if she was also the bridesmaid.
However, in the end, He Xinyan agreed. She didn’t have many female friends besides Wu Minger and it would be awkward if there was only one bridesmaid. Xu Mengya was also her best friend in addition to being her mother-in-law, so there was nothing wrong with her being the bridesmaid.
Of course, since He Xinyan agreed, Gu Yechen also said yes.
Therefore, Xu Mengya was able to get her request approved.
As for the groomsmen, the best man was obviously going to be Gu Yebei. Then, there was Qin Lai, Chen Xiao, and many other people that had attended He Xinyan’s birthday party.
He Xinyan, Xu Mengya, and Wu Minger arrived in front of Qin Lai’s shop, and he was waiting for them already in front of the door.
Qin Lai never designed wedding dresses before, and he didn’t plan to. However, Gu Yechen was his boss and he was getting married! Of course, Qin Lai had to design the dress for his boss’s wedding.
He Xinyan has always been a fan of Qin Lai’s works, and she was more than happy to wear one of his dresses at her wedding.
It would definitely be one of the most famous wedding dresses ever created in history!
The four of them entered the studio and were led to the VIP section right away. Qin Lai first showed them the bridesmaid dresses.
He Xinyan had wanted the color theme of their wedding to be blue and white since her favorite color was sky blue. Therefore, the bridesmaid dresses were in a blue color that was a little darker than sky blue but lighter than navy blue.
They were very simple, with an off-shoulder design on the top and a simple A-line dress bottom.
Both Wu Minger and Xu Mengya went to try it out, and they were both very pleased with it. The wedding was going to be held in the late afternoon to the nighttime, so the sky will be most likely dark.
Although the dress looked very simple, when Qin Lai dimmed the lights, they started to sparkle. Where the sparkle was coming from, they didn’t know.
Qin Lai also refused to tell them, saying that it was his business secret.
However, it looked like stars shining in the sky, making the dress a million times more beautiful than it already was.
Xu Mengya, even in her late 40s, looked absolutely young and gorgeous in the dress.
Standing next to Wu Minger, who was in her 20s, people would believe them if they said they were sisters.
There were a few adjustments to be made since Wu Minger was shorter than expected. However, besides that, the dress was perfect.
Next, it was time for the bride dress, the wedding dress, the most important and most beautiful dress He Xinyan was going to wear in her lifetime.
She was only going to get married once in her entire life, so she wanted to take this opportunity to look as beautiful as she possibly could be and dress like a princess.
She had spoken with Qin Lai over the phone and told him some details about how she wanted her dress to look like. He Xinyan had a basic image of the dress she wanted, but she just couldn’t phrase the details out.
It was almost like she could imagine this absolutely gorgeous and perfect dress, but she didn’t exactly know what it should look like.
So, she left it up to Qin Lai to design the final product and hoped that he understood her. And, He Xinyan trusted him. She liked all of his designs so she was certain that the wedding dress he designed for her would also be perfect.
The three of them sat down to talk while drinking some tea as Qin Lai disappeared into his “secret den” to fetch the dress.
”Ah!” A sound of a crash came from inside the room and then the sound of Qin Lai’s voice, “Don’t worry, don’t worry! Nothing happened.”
He Xinyan raised one eyebrow before setting the teacup down. As she stood up, the door opened and Qin Lai pushed a full-sized mannequin out of the room. It was on a stand that could be pushed by wheels, and he rolled it out to where they were sitting.
The mannequin was covered with what seemed like a glass dome, and there was a red velvet blanket covering the dome so they couldn’t see what was inside.
