As I step into the room where the groom is getting ready, the atmosphere is quiet, the groom, his mate, and his young child were already almost ready, his toung child, who is the ring bearer, share a special pre-wedding moment.

The room is bathed in natural light, creating a warm and inviting ambiance.

 

I notice the child, the adorable ring bearer, proudly displaying the wedding rings inside a pocket watch, their eyes wide with excitement and innocence.

The groom's mate, standing by his side, is helping with the final adjustments to the suit, exchanging banter and smiles.

 

The child, still holding the rings, looks up at the groom with a mixture of awe and delight, adding an extra layer of joy to the scene.

Bride's final preparations

As I enter the room where the bride is helping her child get dressed, I'm met with a symphony of emotions.

 

The atmosphere is a mix of excitement, a touch of chaos, and a whole lot of love.

 

The child, initially resistant, lets out a scream that echoes through the room.

 

It's a familiar scene – the struggle of a little one against the confines of formal attire.

The bride, with a calm and patient demeanor, kneels down beside her child, trying to soothe the distress.

The bride, surrounded by the soft glow of vanity lights, sits with poise as she applies the finishing touches to her makeup. 

The makeup artist, working with precision, adds a final stroke, and the bride takes a deep breath, absorbing the significance of the impending reveal.

Suddenly, there's a gentle knock on the door.

 

It swings open, and the bride's father enters the room.

 

There's a hushed silence as he stands in the doorway, momentarily struck by the ethereal vision before him.

 

His eyes well up with emotion as he beholds his daughter, now a vision of grace and beauty.

It's a silent exchange of love and a recognition of the profound connection between father and daughter.
