Sentence: It was then the church bells began to ring, telling brides-to-be... #1 (permalink) Fri Aug 21, 2009 23:20 pm   Sentence: It was then the church bells began to ring, telling brides-to-be...
 

Hi guys,

can you please help me with the following sentence:

Narrator after the wedding ceremony, which was finished few minutes ago: "It was then the church bells began to ring, telling brides-to-be everywhere their turn was next."

In the other words: After the wedding, the church bells began to ring, announcing to the all brides in the neighborhood that the next wedding in the church bellongs to them...?

Or how would paraphrase that sentence?

thanks in advance

Hi PM,

Note the spelling of 'belong' - only one 'l'.
