Phoebe Stone arrives at a grand Rhode Island seaside hotel in her best dress and most uncomfortable shoes, only to be mistaken for one of the wedding guests — even though she’s the only person at the Cornwall Inn not there for the big event.
When the bride, Lila, learns that her meticulously crafted destination wedding could be disrupted by a divorced, down-on-her-luck stranger, she’s furious. Months of planning start to unravel, and soon both women find their expectations upended — and a surprising confidante in each other.
Funny, warm, and wise, The Wedding People is a charming novel about love, friendship, messy families, and the unexpected detours that lead to happiness.
