A long adventure of how I became to be a Bridesmaid in a real Wedding

Note, this a true story, none of the names have been changed, but
certainly not the events of the days!, this is taken right from my
diary entries of the time.

My (email) name is Joyce Devries and it was a real life adventure
that till this day has never been matched for an exciting adventure. I
am 5'2", TV, live near Toronto, Ont., Canada, pass quite well as a
woman and have done tons of "real life" things as a woman, but this
was the ultimate in adventures.

THE BIG DAY, GETTING READY, NOVEMBER 1989

I was shaken awake by my girlfriend at the "un-Godly" hour of
6:30am, I was groggy and rolled over and she told me, "wake up sleepy
head, time to get up and be a Bridesmaid, your appointment at the
salon is only a couple of hours away". It took a few minutes to clear
my head, but once that was done I was ready to get to the work at hand
and climbed out of bed and headed for the bathroom, leaving my
girlfriend still in the bed. As I got up I heard her say, "take lots
of time, there is no hurry, and you have to be really, really clean, I
left something on the counter I want you to put on before you come out
of the bathroom". I did as she asked and as I went into the shower,
grabbed two razors just in case and enjoyed the warm water and spent
an hour on my legs, arms, chest and everything, there was not a hair
anywhere. As I came out of the shower and dried off, I saw what my
girlfriend left out and it was something called "body spray". I had no
clue what this was and I stuck my head out of the bathroom and asked
my girlfriend what this was and heard her call from the living room
that I needed to spray that all over myself. "Too keep you smelling
fresh for the day, you really should not be wearing perfume". I closed
the door and shook the container and sprayed it all over, they smell
was lovely and it was very close to my girlfriend's Obsession perfume,
but not as strong.

I came out of the bathroom wrapped in a towel and went into the
bedroom and my girlfriend had already taken care of laying out my
clothes for the morning. She left on the bed, her blue shirtdress, the
same one I wore to the engagement party, an older pair of nude nylons
(definitely not sheer). My favorite pair of 3" black kid shoes and of
course my low backed strapless bra, and a brand new pair of pure snow
white silk and lace panties, they looked incredible. As I was looking
over the clothes I heard a knock at the door and my girlfriend
reminding me to only put on a little makeup for the day as she
reminded me I was getting made up at Debbie's for the Wedding (as if I
needed reminding). I slipped on my lingerie and then into the blue
shirtdress and made my way to the makeup mirror and applied a little
eyeliner and light reddish pink lipstick. I came out of the bedroom
and there was my girlfriend sitting on the couch and she looked me
over and told me that I was as white as a ghost and "was anything
wrong?". I of course told her "no", but she also noticed my hands were
shaking like leaves and then I realized it was my nerves. My
girlfriend took me by the hand and sat me on the couch, and even
though it was 8am, she poured me a wine spritzer and told me to relax
while she got dressed. I was shaking like a leaf and as I sipped on
the wine spritzer, I had all sorts of thoughts running through my mind
about how the day could go terribly wrong. My girlfriend came and was
dressed in gray sweatpants and a green sweatshirt and sat next to me
on the couch, grabbed my hands and talked to me, telling me, "I know
you are nervous, all girls in the Wedding party usually are. Just do
what you have been told to do and follow the lead of the other girls
and things will be fine, you have made it this far with no one finding
out who you are". She was right.

It took a second wine spritzer before I started to believe her
and definitely did not want to get drunk before and occasion like this
and the timing was right and it was time to go to the salon. My
girlfriend handed me my purse and we both checked to make sure
everything that was needed for the day was ready to go. The reason was
that we would be heading right from the salon, to Debbie's parents
house and she reminded me that, "the next time you come back here, you
will be in your Bridesmaid dress". I packed the real and pearl
necklace in my purse the evening before when we got home so that was
set, and I grabbed my heels for the dress and we were ready to go. As
we grabbed our coats in the hall I noticed my floral dress that my
girlfriend was going to be wearing was in a cleaning bag, and she told
me she had it cleaned for the day, and I could not wait to see her
wearing it.

We both helped each other on with our coats and slung our purses
over our shoulders and I still remember hearing the door of the
apartment shut as we left for the salon. I knew that the next time I
walked through that door, I was going to be a Bridesmaid that was just
in a Wedding. We got to the car and I slid in and started shaking
again, and my girlfriend grabbed my hand and got serious and looked me
in the eye and said. "Seriously Joyce, it is REALLY too late, calm
down and focus on what you have to do, you definitely cannot back out
now". My head was spinning, not from the wine but the thoughts running
through my head. Was I going to trip going down the isle?, was someone
going to find out what I was?, was I pretty enough?, was Paul going to
start caressing me on the dance floor and "discover me"?.

It only took 10 minutes or so and we were at the salon, and this
was my first time in a salon so I had no clue what to expect. My
girlfriend and I got out of the car and I followed her in and as soon
as we walked in a cute blond, about 5'5", wearing a little black
miniskirt, very well done makeup, white sweater and low black heels,
exclaimed, "hi there!, so this is the Bridesmaid-to-be?". My
girlfriend responded back and said, "yes, this is my friend Joyce, her
nails need work, and I could think of nobody better than you Sasha,
Joyce meet Sasha". We shook hands and after my girlfriend took my coat
and my purse, she lead me to a table and I sat down and Sasha went to
work on my nails, she asked, "so how long do you want Joyce?". My
girlfriend came over just as she was asking that question and I had a
total blank stare on my face, what did she mean how long?, I thought
she was just going to make them pretty. My girlfriend quickly spoke
up, "'active length' right Joyce?, with a clear coat?", at this point
I had no clue what she was talking about and just agreed. Over the
next 45 minutes, Sasha applied fake nails to my hands. Sasha would not
stop talking and was asking me tons and tons of questions about the
Wedding, and if I was excited?, colour of the dresses?, flowers?,
etc., etc. Before I knew it I had real nails!, I mean, they looked
totally real!. They were not long, maybe a quarter inch past my
regular "male" nails, but they certainly made my hands look very, very
dainty. All the while my girlfriend was combing and combing my hair
making sure it was pretty and perfect as there was going to be no hair
styling for me at Debbie's, once she was convinced everything was
perfect she backed off and let Sasha finish my nails.

I had to sit for about 5 minutes while for them to dry and that
period of time I stood up to meet Sasha and she gave me a very gentle
hug and told me to have a great Wedding. I was in awe and could not
believe I would have hands that looked that feminine, and my
girlfriend said. "Now, you have to be really careful in what you do
Those cost $45, do not try and lift anything, you are a woman today,
let the men do that kind of thing". As we put on our coats, and it was
really weird as I now had nails and it felt kind of funny, Sasha said
to my girlfriend, "see you in hour or so?". She said she would and
looked back at me and said as we walked out the door, "do you think
you are the only one being pampered at the salon today?". I was still
stunned at how pretty my hands looked and took extra care as I got
into the passenger side of the car, I saw the clock on the dash, only
10 minutes till we were supposed to be at Debbie's!.

As we drove, a million more thoughts ran through my mind and a
funny thing happened as we got closer to Debbie's parents and that was
that I started calming down and what was fear turned into absolute
excitement. We continued holding hands and as my girlfriend turned
into the driveway of Debbie's parents house she said the same thing I
did when I saw it, "oh my god!". She pulled up to the main entrance of
the large house and out front was a large stretch limousine and
ribbons and balloons all around the doorways and on the railings. My
girlfriend leaned over and gave me a little kiss and told me to leave
my purse and coat in the car and to take my jewelry out. I did and
opened the door to the bright sunshine and pulled off my coat and
threw it on the back seat. It was chilly and I quickly grabbed my
heels and jewelry and headed for the front door as my girlfriend had
one thing to say before I went and rang the doorbell. "Remember
smile!, and see you later this afternoon 'my pretty Bridesmaid'".

I made my way to the door as I heard my girlfriend drive off and
then rang the doorbell. One of Debbie's Aunts answered the door and
said, "hello Barb, you are the first one here, Debbie is having all
the girls get ready in her room and her parents, follow me". I
followed her and could tell the house was a "beehive" of activity, as
we walked past the large room the rehearsal party was held in, and it
looked like a photography studio with the flashes and cameras set up.
I could hear lots of voices coming from various rooms and just
followed her up the stairs. She showed me to the bathroom and told me
that Debbie was not back from getting her nails and hair done. She
told me that Debbie's mother was just getting her hair and makeup done
and that there was a robe in the bathroom that I could use and that I
could leave my clothes in Debbie's room. She went on to explain that I
was not to worry, the door to Debbie's room was going to be shut all
of the time. So if I was uncomfortable with the robe I did not have to
wear it, and to leave my clothes there and I could pick them up the
next day. She also commented, "I see you are already in nylons, Debbie
has left ones for you to wear today on the vanity, when you are done,
come down to the last door on the left and we will get your makeup
done". She grabbed my shoes and jewelry and told me that she would put
them in Debbie's room and pointed out which one it was.

I opened the door to the bathroom and nearly died, it was the
main bathroom in the house and I had never seen anything like it
before. First off, it was bigger than the entire apartment my
girlfriend and I lived in!!!, the floor looked like it was marble, all
of the fixtures were brass and there was a chandelier!!!. There was a
large lighted vanity and separate sink area, there was a large
separate showering area and what looked like a huge bathtub. I was
totally blown away, but then jolted back to reality of the job at
hand.

Quite a few things ran through my mind, as there was going to be
no way I was going to be in just bra and pantyhose in front of the
other girls. How the heck was I going to get into my dress without
being found out?. I thought I was just going to get my makeup put on
in the clothes I came in and then discreetly slip into my Bridesmaid
dress. My nerves started getting to me again, but I was sure Debbie
had made some arrangement so that I could discreetly get dressed. I
undressed and slid off the pantyhose that I was wearing, and found 4
packages of new nude pantyhose on the vanity, and written on one was
my name. I opened the package and carefully slid them on, I noticed by
the brand name "DIM" that these were not cheap pantyhose. I got them
on without putting a run in them and then looked around the room and
found two white terrycloth robes hanging on the wall and grabbed one.
I slipped it on, and even though it was small on me, at least covered
what it needed to cover. I gathered my clothes, stuffing the pantyhose
that I wore to Debbie's in the front of one of my 3" black heels and
grabbed the blue shirtdress and opened the door. Debbie's aunt heard
me come out and came to help, she grabbed my clothes and told me that
she would put them in Debbie's room and that Debbie's mother was
almost done and to go into the master bedroom.

I slowly walked towards the door and when I turned to walk in was
really surprised. There were two women, probably in their early 30's,
very attractive, both in jeans and t-shirts, their makeup was very
well done. Debbie's mom stood up and was done, she was dressed in a
lovely cream dress, and the makeup work the girls had done made her
look spectacular. She came over to me and gave me a hug and told me
that she loved my hair and introduced me to the girls that would be
getting me ready, Lilly and Sam. Lilly, who was apparently doing the
hair, commented, "oh you are Barb, I see your hair has already been
done, Debbie told us you were getting done ahead of time, you should
be quick to get done, just makeup and nails. I was seated and a bib
put on me, I had no clue what that was for, but listened to my
girlfriends voice in my head and "just followed their lead". It was
quite the routine, Lilly had me put my hands on a table and commented
on how pretty my hails looked, and she very carefully started to put
nail polish on them. Sam on the other hand started working on my
makeup, she was using things I had never seen before, liquid eyeliner,
lip liner, and a tool she used on my eye lashes, finally she painted
my lips with liquid lipstick (a first for me). I sat quietly as they
worked, and in the background I could hear that Debbie and Teresa had
arrived and Debbie came in to see how I was doing. I could not see
her, but she commented, oh Barb, you are going to like this look, it
is definitely "you". Lilly was finished before Sam, and she then work
a little on my hair, adding two little combs that had some tiny white
flowers sticking out of them, "baby's breath" was what I was told the
flowers were.

They were eventually done and they held a mirror in front of me
and honestly, I swear I almost did not recognize myself!. My eyes, so
defined, my cheeks, I had really defined cheeks!, and big pouting
lips. I almost started to cry and Sam noticed this and said, "don't
cry dear, it will really ruin your makeup and you are not even at the
church yet!". As I stood up, I looked over and Sam had all of our
purses on another table and found one with my name in it and said,
"ok, you have the same colour of lipstick as you have on now in here.
As well as blush, a comb, some dry foundation, tissues, and some other
things you may need". I turned with my purse in hand, not knowing were
to go next and in came Teresa, wearing the other robe and I heard
Lilly and Sam say, "next!". Teresa smiled at me and said, "you look
fantastic!. Debbie's Aunt then told me that Debbie was waiting for me
in her room and that I might as well get into my dress.

I opened the door to Debbie's bedroom and my eyes opened really
wide and I am sure my face went flush!. There was Debbie standing
there in a strapless merry widow, with ultra sheer white stockings,
being held up with garters and silky white panties. Her hair was done
up in French curl and her headpiece was already on her head with the
organza material flowing down her back as she stood. Her makeup was
absolutely perfect, just like mine, when I came in the room she looked
over at me and smiled and told me that I already really looked pretty.
I froze and really did not know what to do, but Debbie's mother came
out of the large closet and had a HUGE white crinoline for Debbie's
dress and noticed me. She smiled and said, "great one of the
Bridesmaid's, come here and give me a hand helping Debbie into this".
I walked over to near the middle of the room were Debbie was standing
and I was told to kneel down so that Debbie could rest a hand on my
shoulder. She then stepped into it and I heard Debbie's mother say
"thanks, oh shoot, I forgot the 'something blue', I will be right
back".

As Debbie's mother left the room both Debbie and I looked at each
other, she told me that my dress was in the closet, and I cannot
remember who moved first, but we quickly moved to the closet and she
was the first to find my Bridesmaid dress. I saw the bag had my name
on it and she handed it to me and right in the VERY large walk in
closet stripped out of my robe and quickly stepped into the dress. I
spun around and Debbie quickly and carefully zipped me up, we both
left the closet and I looked back and saw Debbie having trouble
getting back out of the closet and had to laugh, she was tugging and
pulling at her crinolines to get through the door. She was laughing
too as she walked towards the center of the room and I stood there
with my white robe in my hands and Debbie's mother walked back. She
asked what was so funny and Debbie said, "I think I am going to have
fun with going through doors!". Debbie's mother giggled a little and
said, "oh dear, wait till see when you have to go to the ladies room,
you will definitely know why you have Bridesmaid's". We finished
giggling and Debbie's mother asked me for the robe as Liz needed it as
she arrived a few minutes before to get her makeup and hair done. I
had to comment to Debbie as she stood there how large the material was
and at the bottom was probably 3 feet on either side of her feet!. She
laughed and said, "but remember how pretty it made my Wedding dress
look".

When Debbie's mother came back to the room, she went into the
closet and grabbed Debbie's dress, which was in a large white bag with
a zipper on it. She opened the bag and carefully pulled out Debbie's
dress and hung it on the top of the door, saying to Debbie, "we will
get you into that dear when Teresa gets here, no offense Barb, Teresa
is used to helping Debbie into it". I told her no offense was taken
and that I would be glad to do what ever I could to help. In the
meantime I slipped into my shoes and made my way to Debbie's vanity
and put on my jewelry. Debbie came up behind me and helped me do up
the necklace, I was staring at myself in the mirror and as I did, she
gently grabbed my shoulders. She looked into the mirror with me and
said, "told you would be a pretty Bridesmaid, your gorgeous, let's see
the 'whole' look". She grabbed my hand and lead me to her bed and what
I failed to notice before was all of the bouquet's were laid out on
the bed and they were absolutely incredible. She handed me one and
then lead me over to her large full length mirror and I knew enough on
how to hold them, and her mother came over and told me to hold them a
little higher, but not too high. I stood there and stared at the look,
and I was speechless, the dress fit and felt perfect, the flowers were
absolutely lovely and I could not get over how the matching heels made
the whole look. I could see Debbie, still just in her lingerie
standing, smiling at me and just as she was about to say something
Teresa came in and immediately commented on how I looked "wonderful".

Debbie's mother told Teresa she needed the robe and Teresa took
it off and handed it to her. Ok, I thought, "this is not happening", I
kept staring at myself in the mirror, but behind me were two beautiful
girls, both in nothing but lingerie hugging and telling each other how
pretty they both looked. After they finished, Teresa, still in just
her pantyhose, panties and bra, came and stood right beside me and
said, "sure I hope I look that good in my dress". I could see Debbie
covering her mouth a little in the background with an ear to ear grin,
and I tried everything I could not to look at this gorgeous woman
standing next to me in just lingerie. The way they had done her hair
and makeup made her look like a supermodel, I could easily see her
ample breasts almost bursting out of her bustier, and could not help
but notice the plain white cotton panties she was wearing. She turned
to Debbie, who quickly stop smiling and almost giggling and as asked
were the dresses where and she told her the closet and she knew where
it was and went to get her dress. Debbie came over to me and was
giggling and said, "the expression on your face was priceless, I wish
I had a camera!". I walked over to the bed and put the flowers down. I
asked Debbie if any bouquet was any certain girl's and she told me
they were all the same and that "that is another present from me to
the Bridesmaid's, make sure you take yours home". Teresa came out of
the closet with her dress and took it out of the bag and stepped into
it then walked backwards to me and asked me to zip her up, which I
did. She took slipped on her heels and made her way to the vanity and
put on her jewelry, all the while, Debbie's mother was getting ready
to help Debbie into her dress.

When Teresa was done, she came over and helped Debbie very
carefully slip her dress over her head and down. As Teresa moved to
the back of the dress, Debbie asked me to adjust the front down over
her crinolines and her mother was fluffing out the train. As Teresa
was finishing up buttoning and zippering Debbie's dress, I had to
stand back and look at how wonderful she looked, absolutely stunning,
the makeup, the hair and the dress all combined to make a wonderful
look. As Debbie started to make her way to the mirror Liz came in
wearing the white robe and made her way to the closet, as she came
out, she dropped her robe and threw it in the corner of the room.
Again I was floored, as this 19 year old very attractive woman was
standing before me in just pantyhose, panties and her bra. She slipped
on her dress and turned her back to me and asked me to do her up and I
did. I looked back to see Debbie in front of the large mirror looking
herself over and she was stunning. Liz quickly got her shoes on and
jewelry and went to admire Debbie, and as she did I followed and was
in awe at what I saw. Even though we did not have our flowers, on one
side of Debbie was Liz and myself, the other Teresa, I could not
believe that I was actually wearing the exact same dress as two other
girls and standing next to a Bride-to-be in a Wedding gown!. As we
stood there we all complimented each other, Connie finally came in the
room and got her dress, Debbie's mother did her dress up as we were
all still busy admiring ourselves and Debbie. Final adjustments were
made to Debbie's dress, train and headpiece and then Debbie's mother
said, "alright ladies picture time, grab your flowers and head
downstairs".

Then the moment that will forever be in my mind and define the
whole day happened. Debbie called over her mother to her and said,
"can you take care of getting the girls ready, I want a moment alone
with Barb". She said, "of course dear, anything you want, after all,
this is your day". I looked over at Debbie and she had a weird grin on
her face and said, "please stay for a minute Barb". The last person
was out of the room and I could hear everyone else going down the
stairs Debbie said to me in a very low and seductive way, "please go
lock the door Barb". As I went to the door Debbie moved to her bed and
sat down, and motioned a finger for me to come and join her. It was
funny as I approached the bed, her dress surrounding her and the
crinolines sticking out. As I got closer I could see a certain look in
her eyes that I had only seen once before and that was a year and half
ago during a very erotic evening. She patted the bed beside her and I
put down my flowers and she grabbed my hands and looked me right in
the eyes and said, "Barb, and I will forever call you Barb, I want you
to give myself and Carl a special Wedding present". I smiled and held
her hands tighter and said, "I know what my girlfriend and I got you
is perfect, you will love it". She held my hands even tighter and
said, "out of all of the other Bridesmaid's you and I share a special
bond, and you do know what that is right?", I of course knew what she
meant and said, "how can I ever forget?".

She reached over to her nightstand and opened a box and pulled
out a white lace garter cover with blue ribbon. She held it up and
asked me if I knew what it was, I took a guess and said, "your garter,
something blue?", she smiled and said "yes". She then asked if I knew
what the ritual was at the end of the evening, and I told her I did.
She then gave a wicked smile and said, "but there is no ritual for
when it gets put on is there?". I did not know of any and told her,
she giggled, and said, "of course there is not, until now". She got
serious and pulled her body to mine and we hugged and she gave me a
very light kiss on the lips. She pulled away and said, "I would be
honored if you would put that on my left leg", I said "of course",
then the request came. "When you are down there, among all that
crinoline material, I want you to give us a special present for our
Wedding night". She handed me the garter and I was still staring at
her. She lifted a finger close to my lips and said, "leave a lipstick
kiss mark on the front of my panties so tonight when Carl see it he
will go wild, and will give me a keepsake from you. I was floored and
was totally excited and scared at the same time, Debbie saw this and
said, "remember the door is locked and be careful not to smear your
makeup when you go down.

I slid off the bed and Debbie laid back, her crinolines literally
hiding her entire body as I sat on the floor looking up. I lifted her
left leg and slid the garter on and up and Debbie had to help pulling
the layers and layers of material away so I would not smear anything.
Finally I had the garter in place at the top of her stockings and was
staring at her pure white silk panties, I said quietly, "are you
sure", and she quietly back, "yes". I spread her legs as far as they
would go and very gently, as if I was kissing her, brought my lips to
the front of her panties and pressed hard. The musty smell of her
excitement filled my nostrils as I pressed my lips carefully to her
crotch and I held them there for a few seconds. I backed off and there
was a perfect kiss mark on the front of her panties like she wanted. I
stood up and smoothed out my dress and helped Debbie stand up and
adjusted her dress and train and such. She smiled and gave me a little
kiss and told me I best adjust my lipstick. As she grabbed for her
flowers I made my way to the vanity and opened my purse and got
another shock. What the girls told me earlier about, "and other
things", I had no idea that included a tampon, maxi pad and a condom!.
I asked Debbie what that was all about and she just laughed and said,
we talked about it and rather than embarrass any girls by asking
questions, like if they were on their period or going out after with a
male friend. We thought we would pack the purses for "periods or sex
after the Wedding", she laughed and handed me my flowers and I
unlocked the door and helped her downstairs.
Debbie told me to go to the same room that we had the engagement
party in and of course everyone was asking what took us so long and I
blushed, but Debbie just said, "we had something special to talk
about". The photographer had tons of equipment set up and we were told
that the first pictures were going to be of Debbie, Debbie and her
father, Debbie and her mother, etc., etc. So for the first hour,
Teresa, Connie Liz and I stood around, and about 15 minutes into that
first hour a server came and offered glasses of champagne, which I
made sure I only had a couple. Debbie looked beautiful as she posed
and I knew that the pictures were going to be spectacular afterwards.
I was glad when the photographer then called the "girls of the Wedding
party" as my feet were already starting to feel the effects of
standing in one place. As we moved towards the area of were the
pictures were being taken, Sam was there, making sure each one of us
had our lipstick touched up and blush was perfect.

We were all placed and arranged and moved into different
positions and after a while my mouth muscles were starting to get sore
from smiling so much. Finally the picture that I knew would mean the
most to me and that was one of just Debbie and I alone, the
photographer took two and Debbie said, "no take a couple more just to
make sure we get it right". I had lost total track of time, I thought
it was around 12 noon or so, and as we stood around and chatted after
the pictures, Debbie's Mom came and told us that it was time to get
going to the church!. Both Liz and I looked at each other and both
could not believe that in 30 minutes, the Wedding would take place!,
"my time flies when you are having fun", I thought.

There was a "flurry" of activity as everyone grabbed things and
started making their way to the door. We were told to "stay put" and
let the photographer get out and everyone else and then we should make
our way to the Limo". We did and both Teresa and I helped Debbie
gather her dress, Liz held her flowers as we made our way to the Limo.
Even though the sun was shining, you could see your breath, but the
limo was only a few feet from the door and after Debbie was
comfortably seated, we climbed in one by one in to the very large and
spacious limo. I personally had never been in a vehicle like that and
just sat back in the leather seat and looked around. The driver poked
his head in and told us champagne was on ice and that he would take
his time and "ladies enjoy the ride". Connie was closest to the
champagne and started pouring glass for each of us and handed a glass
to people one by one. The ride to the church was about 15 minutes away
and when we arrive we could see lots of people still arriving and we
were told to stay in the limo for a while. We all finished our
champagne and it was about 10 minutes later that Debbie's mom came to
the limo and knocked on the glass and told us it was time to go in.

All of the Bridesmaid's got out of the limo and then waited for
Debbie to make her way to the door and we helped her out. Just like we
went into the limo, Teresa and I helped Debbie into the church and Liz
carried her flowers into the church. As we walked up to the church
lots of people that still were not seated were "oohhing and ahhing"
and looking at us and we all were doing was nothing but smiling back.
I kept looking for my girlfriend in the crowd, but she was not
anywhere, and followed the other girls into the front lobby of the
church and then into the side room where we were told to go. We were
told to "sit down and be comfortable" while the rest of the people are
being seated. The nervousness of all of the girls could be felt, not
only myself, but all of the other girls as well and of course Debbie.
We talked and wondered all about what it was going to be like. Then
the knock at the door came and I have no clue who it was behind the
door, but we all heard, alright ladies, time to go. I stood up,
grabbed my flowers and Teresa chimed out, "ok ladies, bra check,
everyone make sure you are comfortable, let's go". All of us put down
our flowers and adjusted our bras to be comfortable. The door opened
and I was probably just as nervous as any of the other girls as we
