Katie Fisher is
ecstatic. Pro basketball star Brady James has proposed, and she can't wait to
start planning their life together. She's confident she'll make it down the
aisle this time--but it still may be easier said than done. A high-society
Houston bride has Katie and the Cosmopolitan Bridal team scrambling to get the
perfect dress done in time for her spectacular wedding. Meanwhile, Katie finds
herself bombarded with everyone's competing visions regarding her own special
day--and she's beginning to worry that her own ideas will get lost in the
crossfire. Will she ever manage to settle all of the details for her
perfect day? Or will bridal shop chaos and overzealous friends and family make
a mess of everything?

My Review:
I
have enjoyed reading the first two books in the Brides with Style series by
Janice Thompson. I enjoyed seeing Katie struggle as she tried to figure out if
she wanted to marry Casey or Brady. With the conclusion to the series in Every
Bride Has Her Day, Thompson has created a touching feel good story that fans of
contemporary romance will enjoy.
The
story interacts with Katie and Brady as they finalize their plans for their
wedding. The story begins right after the proposal from the second book and
ends after their actual wedding. While the story is predictable, the familiar
characters brought a good feeling to me as the reader. I enjoyed getting lost
in Dallas and Fairfield with the numerous characters who have populated all
three stories.
Thompson
does a good job at using simple, easy to follow language to invite me into the
story. I saw the bridal shop, the different churches, and the numerous weddings
that took place without having to stretch my imagination at all. Thompson
really shines when describing a wedding.
I never once doubted her terminology for the wedding dress material.
While
Thompson does a good job at bringing back into the fold of the story from the
first chapter of Every Bride Has Her Day, I felt like the story was a little
too happy for me. There was a little conflict at the beginning of the story,
but then it got solved, and the story was rainbows and unicorns for the rest of
the book. Too much happiness for me. But that is just my humble opinion.
Overall,
fans of the first two books by Janice Thompson will be happy to return and
watch Katie reach her happily ever after. Thompson reminded me that a wedding
is about the people who come and see you, not on how much money someone spends
on the event. Glad I didn't have an expensive wedding, but I have a great
marriage, which is what matters in the end.
I
received a complimentary copy of Every Bride Has Her Day by Janice Thompson and
the opinions stated are all my own.
My Rating: 4 out of 5 Stars
Purchase Every Bride Has Her Day
Do you enjoy reading a story where there is no conflict and every character is happy where they reach their goals? Why or why not?
