Barbara Powell's Reviews > The Wedding Planner

Danielle Steele can always be counted on to bring the drama but do it in a way that you can read it at your leisure and not lose interest. This was no exception. It wasn’t as intense as some of her others, but it moved along well with even pacing.
Faith, as you can tell from the title, is “the” sought after wedding planner. She is happily single after being engaged twice and it not working out. Now she is busy planning weddings for others, from super extravagant million dollar weddings to the simpler, more intimate one for her own personal assistant, Violet, who can’t really afford anything special, but they’ve been together for along time and feel like it’s time to make it official. Ans everything in between. Meanwhile, Faith’s twin sister, Hope, is living her dream life in the country with her husband raising her family and the total opposite of Faith. Their mom decides to get married for the third time and they have to deal with that as well.
As Faith plans the weddings of the various couples, a rich spoiled daddy’s girl, a gay couple who are expecting via surrogate and Phoebe who is engaged to a super controlling man who Faith doesn’t think she should marry, she tackles the various obstacles that stand between each couple and the weddof their dreams. And Faith is the miracle worker that makes everything okay for everyone, and after giving so much of herself for so many years, she even ends up making things better for herself.
This is classic woman’s fiction with some triggers-verbal and physical abuse, traumatic birth.
