‘Daisy, Ollie, Jessie and Connor have already offered.’

Evie nodded and added it to the list. ‘I think you’ve got most of the big things ticked off then.’

Smiling, Elsie nodded. ‘Yes, you’re right. Thank you for doing this with me, love. I don’t feel quite as panicked now.’

‘You’re welcome. It’s been nice.’ Taking a long sip from her hot chocolate, she turned the page and held the magazine up for Elsie to see. ‘Here’s an article describing the different styles of wedding dresses.’

‘Ooh, that might be worth reading. Let’s have a look.’










Chapter Eight

‘Hold on one moment, love. Are you okay taking these out for me, please?’ Elsie pulled a tray of rolls from the oven.

‘Yes, of course.’ Drinking the rest of her glass of water, Evie waited for Elsie to transfer the rolls onto a cool tray and picked them up.

‘I’ll follow you out with this. I think Wendy and Molly are having a meeting with the new photographer and I want to try to drop into the office, see if he’s free for mine and Ian’s big day.’ Elsie picked up a large coffee and walnut cake.

‘Elsie, what are you up to tomorrow evening?’ Diane held the kitchen door open as they slipped through.

‘Tomorrow? Umm, let me think.’ Elsie winked at Evie. ‘I think I’m free.’

‘Great. Well, we were wondering if you’d like to pop into Trestow with us?’

‘Whatever for?’ Elsie placed the coffee and walnut cake on the coffee and cake counter and turned to Teresa. ‘Here you go, love.’

‘Great, thanks. Annie will be pleased to see this when she pops in for her latte and cake.’ Teresa passed a coffee across to a customer.

‘Good, good.’ Turning back to Diane, Elsie smiled. ‘Maybe we could go for dinner somewhere in Trestow? Is that what you were planning?’

‘Umm... yes.’ Diane frowned.

‘Sounds lovely. I’m looking forward to it.’ Elsie rubbed Diane’s forearm. ‘Thanks, love. Now, I’d better get into that office and find out if I have a photographer for the wedding or not.’

Teresa watched Elsie disappear into the wedding planning office before turning to Diane and laughing. ‘You do know she knows you’re up to something, don’t you?’

‘Do you think?’
