The story revolves around the characters of Emmeline Benson and Lord Ernest Fitzhenry as they navigate the complexities of their arranged marriage within the context of social expectations and personal desires.

At the start of the narrative, Emmeline and Lord Fitzhenry's wedding unfolds amid a gathering of friends and family, showcasing the joyous yet anxious atmosphere surrounding the ceremony. While Emmeline's father delights in the match, her mother shows signs of emotional turmoil over her daughter's departure.
