"I felt a little self-conscious, inviting people out here to help me pick a dress," Hermione admits, ducking her head sheepishly. She doesn't regret the choice to send more invitations, not now that she's seen how many people were willing and even eager to come out and help. "I was musing over it back in my apartment, wondering if it was too self-absorbed, but... I really am grateful that you came out. It's nice to have more pairs of eyes to make sure I'm not picking something terrible. It's certainly not what I would have picked as a child. I was always the sort of girl who wanted the most ostentatious dress. Like Princess Diana's, I suppose."
