"We're here," I said when the car stopped.
We stopped right in front of a bridal store. I grabbed my bag, and we all got out of the car.
"This bridal store looks exclusive," Ningning commented.
"It's one of the most exclusive and luxury fashion designers. He designed some of the most beautiful wedding attire for bride and groom in Malaysia," I said.
"He's also mom's close friend," Jasmine added as we walked towards the door.
"He's been one of the most supportive friends I have in the fashion designing industry," Mom said.
The moment we stepped in, we were greeted warmly by the staff and the owner of the bridal store himself. He has a vast boutique he built himself. He makes his name from scratch. Until now, he's one of the best fashion designers in Malaysia.
"Sunny! It's a huge honour to meet you and your 'team'," the owner said.
I laughed and nodded.
"So, who did you bring with you today?" Rizalman, the owner, asked.
"My mom, Christine. My sister-in-law, Jasmine. And my two best friends, Ningning and Yuna," I said.
"Amazing. We'll have a lot of opinions then," he said, and I laughed in response.
"Don't worry. We picked out the ones you've chosen online and have taken them out. Let's go to the back where you can see the simple dresses you had eyes on the other day when we met online," he said.
"Alright," I replied, and we all moved to the back of the store.
We were served some light refreshments such as champagne, fruits and sweets. Chocolates and mints.
It's up to me since I'm the bride. I chose six dresses from hundreds of choices. I had eyes on ballgowns. Mom had eyes on a mermaid dress. Jasmine, Ningning and Yuna said they would love any dresses I love. So, there you have an answer.
"So, we have your favourites out of all hundreds of choices," he said while showing all the dresses.
It's all hung in front of us. Six dresses that I will be trying out today.
"If none of these suit your taste. Don't worry. Don't be pressured to pick any of these. We have more choices, and the bride will make the choices, right?"
"Right."
"So, are we ready for the dress trial?"
"Ask the bride," they said.
I chuckled and nodded, "Very ready."
"Great! Let's go to the back. We'll try your very first dress."
