Synopsis

In this captivating novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author Danielle Steel, a wildly successful, unmarried wedding planner leads her clients to happily ever after.

Faith Ferguson is New York’s most in-demand wedding planner, an arbiter of taste for elegant affairs, lavish ceremonies, and exclusive fêtes. She appreciates a simple celebration as much as a dazzling event, for she knows that a dream wedding is not necessarily the most expensive one.

As much as Faith enjoys her work, her two failed engagements leave her with no desire to get married herself. She finds fulfillment in her close relationship with her twin sister, Hope, her role as a mentor for her assistant, Violet, and her career.

This year, new clients have flocked to her, and she signs up an extravagant reception, a mid-sized gathering, and an intimate soirée, in addition to her mother’s next marriage and Violet’s modest ceremony. Faith finds herself forming bonds with her new clients and their loved ones—most notably the handsome brother of one of her grooms.

But weddings are not always all champagne and roses, and in no time, Faith is grappling with private quarrels, unplanned pregnancies, family scandals, dark secrets, and the possibility of canceled ceremonies. Through her own journey, Faith will prove once and for all that there is not just one path to happily ever after.

In The Wedding Planner, Danielle Steel presents an enchanting story about the winding road to love and the many ways to find joy while staying true to oneself.

Goodreads review by Rianna on May 10, 2023

Okay I enjoyed the plot, but the thing I couldn’t get over is how repetitive the book was. There were multiple times when I read something and thought I had lost my place because I had just read the same thing only a page or two before. The author would repeat a paragraph just to add one small new d......more

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” soug......more

Goodreads review by Kathy on June 08, 2023

I gave this 2 stars merely because I actually finished it instead of putting it aside after about 50 pages. Repetitive prose, trite situations, vacuous characters, silly plot. It's been a while since I've read a Danielle Steel book, and now I remember why.......more
