A past that I did not see coming

Chapter 22

~~~ Last Time... ~~~

"So where do you want the wedding to be, held?"

Solarium thought about this for a moment. "I say it would be best to have the wedding in Canterlot. Since there are very few ponies that would dare enter the Everfree forest."

"All right, we got that taken care of we'd just need to decide if the catering will be done by your parents cooks, or hire someone else to do it and where the reception will be held and many others."

~~~ And now we return... ~~~

It has been five months since Twilight and Solarium got engaged and ever since. Solarium's family found out that they were thinking about having the wedding in Canterlot. His mom pretty much began taking care of everything. The only thing that Solarium or Twilight had their way was: what food was going to be served, the color schemes, and what the brides and bridesmaids dresses would look like. Apparently Cosmos has been secretly planning for her to children's wedding's since they were born. Which made both Solarium and Twilight worried for Luna when ever she gets engaged to someone. It also made Twilight wonder if Cosmos is already begun planning for the remarriage when she returned to her time?

Today Cosmos was having Twilight try on any different wedding dresses and no, they were not going store to store to trying on dresses. Cosmos had brought in the 25 best fashion designers of this time frame. And had each one of them, make as many different type of wedding dresses as they could think of. And now she was having Twilight try them all on. While she and Luna watched Twilight try them on and provided their opinions on each dress. And there were a lot of dresses. News had spread about the wedding. Pretty much a week after Twilight and Solarium got engaged fashion designers from all over Equestria began designing wedding dresses. As well as dresses for those who were going to attend the wedding. A month and a half after everyone on found out about the wedding. Cosmos contacted the 25 fashion designers and told them that they would be competing. For designing the dress for Twilight. Which by the time they got the letters each one of them already made five different wedding dresses. In hopes of the young prince soon to be bride wear, meaning 125 dress is for Twilight to try on. But those dresses were not only originally made for Twilight, they were designs inspired from hearing about the wedding, so they were going to be for sale to anyone... At least originally. Now that they knew that they had a chance to have one of there dresses worn by Twilight. They started making dresses more fit for royalty. Since it only took the a month and a half make five wedding dresses... By the time the five months came each one of the 25 fashion designers had made 40 dresses each. This meant that Twilight was trying on 1000 wedding dresses. By that time Twilight got to the 100th dress. She was already getting annoyed and me of a mental note and solemn vow. That when she returns back to her time and has to redo her wedding. That no matter how much Cosmos complains Rarity would be the one making her new dress. Since she just knew Cosmos was going to say that "since Solarium saw her wedding dress from their first marriage. It would be in poor taste to use it again for the remarriage." Either that or the dresses would be so old that it would be gone from existence once a 1000 years had past... or Luna will destroyed it from when she became Nightmare Moon. Anyways right now Twilight was wearing. A big puffy white dress with up big pink bow on it with his gold trimming everywhere. Which to be honest, Twilight thought it made her look like she was a well decorated and marshmallow. But Cosmos thought otherwise. "Oh Twilight you look adorable in that outfit."


But Luna was taking Twilight side on this. "Are you kidding me mother. She looks like a snow mare that was, gifted with some Boa constrictor trying to look fancy pink bow. With some gold pink painted on it."


At hearing this Twilight began to chuckle. "Actually, I thought I looked like a well decorated and marshmallow. But I can see where you're coming from."


At hearing this Cosmos frowned. "Well, we need to pick a dress."


"Yes Cosmos but this is only dressed number 978, and besides. I really prefer simple not big and elaborate type of a dress kind of a mare."

At hearing this Luna started looking through the remaining dresses. To see if there was anything up bit more of Twilight style she kept at this until one caught her eye . It was a white dress with gold trimming around the neck and bottom of the dress, the trimming was a pattern of the sun. There was of dark purple ribbon around the waist. Which at attached the dress to a clear see-through fabric. That had light purple and gold would are seeping through it. The matching shoes were gold shoes with white roses with purple tips on the pedals. With of matching veil that match the see-through fabric. With matching white with purple trimming rose. Luna thought about for a moment and out of everything she was saying at the moment. This was probably the most simplest, yet elegant dress among the choices. So she levitated towards Twilight. "Here try this dress. I think you might like this one better."

At seeing the dress, both Cosmos and Twilight cast at the dress, both in awe of it. So Twilight levitated the dress, and its accessories that came with it and went. Into her designated fitting room and put it on. When she left the fitting room, both Cosmos and Luna gasped and knew that this dress what the one. "Oh Twilight you look beautiful."

"I have to agree with my daughter on this one, you look absolutely stunning."

At hearing this Twilight looked at her reflection in the mirror before asking. "Do you really think so?"

White in unison. The two both said. "It was truly made for you."

At hearing this Twilight smiled and looked towards the 25 designers. To see which one of them made the dress. However 24 simply looked confused, While the last one looked as if he knew the dress, but could not take credit for it. So Twilight walked up to that stallion. "An excuse me? But by the way your looking at this dress, it seems like you're familiar with it, but you were not the one who made it. You know who did?"

He looked a little bit more nervous being directly talk to but he answered. "My daughter. She wants to be a fashion designer like me when she grows up she really wanted to come but I told her not to come. Then she is only 10 years old she must the place did in between some of my other dresses."

At hearing this Twilight gave him a serene smile that could help calm down. "10 years old. That's very impressive. I think the only other mare I know that is that talented is one of my dear friends from where I'm from. I hope that she makes it, in the fashion business, and I would be more than honored to wear this on my wedding day."

At hearing this, the stallion's mouth with a gaped shocked at what he heard. Along with the other 24 fashion designers while. Queen Cosmos started levitating a bag of bits that she promised. She would give to the designer who made the dress. Along with the 25 smaller bags, but like the others. "Please take this at to your daughters her as I promised. For her, making the dress for my future daughter-in-law and all of you, along with yourself. Take these small bag of bits for compensation for coming here with your dresses."

At this the 25 fashion designers took the small bags of bits. Plus one extra bag of bits for the father of the one who made the dress and left. There wasn't even a need for tailoring as it ended up fitting Twilight perfectly.
