The Rest of the Story:
1: Spring is finally in the air and that means romance is a blooming everywhere you turn. And that is good news for our friend Lil Annie who runs Lil Annie's Pink Cadillac Wedding Chapel on the south side of Vegas. Just off the strip where the prices are cheaper and the stars are brighter than the lights. But the lovin feelin is just as alive here, just not as crowded.
2: So Lil Annie is busy cleaning and sprucing up the chapel and putting a fresh coat of paint on everything from the walls to the chairs. And she really must see to getting those chandeliers cleaned this yr, last yrs quick-pass really didn't last. So as her list of chores gets checked off and the days on the calendar get crossed out; she happily hums and sings her way along getting ready for what she hopes will be a banner yr for Vegas weddings. And signs are looking good, the hotels are being booked far into the summer and the calls inquiring on wedding and photo packages are increasing.
3: And now that the inside of the little chapel is looking good, she has started sprucing up the outside as well. She planted a lot more bulbs last fall and they are starting to come up and should be blooming prettily by wedding season. But as she's dancing along pulling weeds and adding mulch, she notices something strange in those bulbs. They have the strangest blue tint as they are starting to bud out. RUR ROH!!! Did the package get mislabeled? She just knows that she specifically picked out all pink and white bulbs. Oh no, this could be a catastrophe of the first order.
4: Teapotters help is needed here.
Challenge Translation:
Pink flowers, white flowers, and even an Elvis impersonator or two are what this scene needs. No blue flowers or it's the back door for you for sure.
