Further away, Grace and Sylvia paused as they were passing by, stopping to watch the excitement.
Estelle smiled and looked back, exchanging a glance with Jonathan. She held the bouquet in both hands, then swung her arms back and tossed it high into the air.
She was bathed in sunlight, her gown flowing, her smile as radiant as a painting.
The people crowded at the front only had time to see the bouquet fly over their heads. Some jumped, but their fingertips missed it by several inches.
Charlie had been prepared for a long throw, but he had still underestimated Estelle's strength. He and Carson leaped at the same time, their fingers brushing against the petals, but it still slipped past them.
Everyone turned to watch as the bouquet flew another ten meters, landing squarely in the hands of a stunningly beautiful girl in a black dress. She had been standing far back and probably hadn't expected to be hit by it. She caught it instinctively, then looked up, stunned.
Grace looked at the bouquet in Sylvia’s hands, pleasantly surprised. “Well, this must be fate!”
Sylvia laughed, a little exasperated, but she raised the bouquet high in the air, catching Estelle's eye across the crowd and playing along with the festive atmosphere.
A wave of disappointed sighs went through the crowd, but then many of them ran over to Sylvia to take photos with her.
Estelle smiled back at Sylvia, though she didn't have a chance to go over and chat just then.
Jonathan took her hand. “Let's go make a toast to Grandpa first. You'll have a chance to talk later.”
Estelle nodded, glancing one last time at Sylvia in the distance before leaving with Jonathan.

Estelle changed out of her wedding gown and into her reception dress to make the rounds. She went to see Old Mr. Jarvis first.
It was a gathering of elders from the Lamont and Jarvis families, all close relatives who doted on Estelle. After a quick toast, they urged her to go rest.
