Eleanor had lived in the heart of the same small town for all of her 85 years, never even visiting the next town over. Now she’d emptied her life savings to let her only grandson have an unforgettable wedding. Each penny had been saved from her modest pension, but Eleanor dreamt of the joy it would bring, she pictured the smiles and the laughter: the perfect day in the most beautiful location for her beloved grandson and his future wife. 

However, as the wedding day approached, everyone was left speechless when the bride said, “She’s not welcome…”

It had come out of nowhere. Everyone was gathered in Eleanor’s living room to discuss what Elliot, Eleanor’s grandson, and Stephanie, his soon-to-be wife, wanted for their wedding. Eleanor had told Elliot and Stephanie that she would pay for their wedding only a few weeks before, and they had been ecstatic. Yet, today, that feeling of euphoria had seemingly shifted as Stephanie turned to Eleanor.
