I am bringing in this Lily Cole as one half of the arranged marriage and thought I'd look for some lines for her. The idea is Shelby Lee Pennington is the only daughter of the head of Penn Oil, a fictional oil company in Texas that I based off of Chevron. It is an arranged marriage and it's a custom within her family to marry their children off to high ranking political families to help keep their political interests active and vested as well as for the politician's family to have significant financial backing.

She'll be 20 on November 1 and married on November 5 and it's obviously going to be a very large wedding with a lot of press since she's marrying a well regarded New York state senator. She's been attending Princeton's Environmental Institute the last two years so she has a good head for business, is very smart and also an activist for various environmental causes. She loves horses and rides and breeds them so if your character has kids, it could be that she can teach them riding and I would love to have some friends who realize that even though she is part of this massive family that comes from old oil money, she is still a sweet and very down to earth girl who loves just her mom, animals and the environment.

Also if there is anyone who does wedding planning, catering, fashion or anything and wants the press of being involved in a high profile wedding, there is that, too. Maybe fellow new brides as friends to help her transition into married life? I would love to find a best girlfriend for her to be a maid of honor and that she can vent to about marrying a man she doesn't know she loves and cry to about her wedding night fears. Haha, I'm sorry. I'm terrible at these things.
