And So They Were Married

by Florence Morse Kingsley

Elizabeth North, a young woman on the cusp of marriage, finds herself swept away by the allure of a lavish lifestyle. Her friend, Evelyn, encourages her to spend beyond her means, convincing her that a grand wedding and opulent life are essential for social standing. However, as Elizabeth's debts mount, she begins to question her choices. Her husband and her wise grandmother help her to see the error of her ways, leading her to confront the true meaning of happiness and prioritize her values over societal pressures.
