My family Made My Wedding Dress from Scraps

Summary

In the Cesare family, every bride's wedding gown had to be handmade by an elder.

Tradition held that the more elaborate the gown, the happier the marriage would be.

My twin sister and I were getting married on the same day.

At the fitting, Cersei's gown was breathtaking. Tens of thousands of crystals and diamonds covered its sweeping train.

Mom had spent more than six months weaving the delicate lace for her veil by hand.

"Cersei, my darling, you look so beautiful!"

Mom gazed at her, her eyes filling with tears.
