The story revolves around Marcia, a young girl nearing adulthood, who navigates familial expectations and personal aspirations in the days leading up to her sister Kate’s wedding.

Her longing for a new dress reflects her youth and innocence, set against the backdrop of her sister Kate's impending marriage to the charming David Spafford. As the plot unfolds, Marcia's unacknowledged feelings for David contrast sharply with her frustrations regarding her stepmother and her sister's self-absorbed demeanor—a tension that sets the stage for emerging complications when Kate's purportedly perfect wedding plans begin to unravel. The beginning captures Marcia’s inner world, balancing her duties and dreams within her family's expectations, making it clear that her character will undergo significant development as the narrative progresses.
