August 22nd, 1891 — The Sanditon Resort
Despite having grown up alongside Zelda (due largely in part to her friendship with Nemo) Penny was suprised to have received an invitation to the wedding. It was the single received invitation of the summer that didn't fill her with quiet reluctance, too. A party at the beach where her best friend and hopefully one day her husband would be, how could she be reluctant?
Penny had taken great care in selecting her dress for the party, landing on a soft blue dress that she hoped would reflect the beachy tones of the wedding. Her hair was pinned back with a single curl escaping its confines, her makeup soft and delicate. For the first time in a long time, Penny felt pretty, beautiful even. The English Rose Cassandra once prayed she would be.
The ceremony was interesting, as Penny had never partaken in a Jewish ceremony before. It wasn't nearly as long as some of the heavily Christian ceremonies she had had to attend over the years which was a definite positive. The reception seemed to be the same as what she was accustomed to, so Penny knew her role there well enough too. It was all working out swimmingly. Except, she had somehow lost track of Nemo throughout the course of the night.
After quietly slipping away from Cassandra, Penny walked towards the edge of the tent and spotted him on the outermost part facing the water. Making her way over to him, she came to a stop besides him and nudged his shoulder. "Hey." She offered in greeting.
