White Christmas Wedding by Celeste Winters. A beautiful wedding at Christmas in Michigan. I love Christmas stories. This Christmas wedding had some beautiful things happen and some disasters. Read the story you will love it.

This was a hard book to read because you were turned in different directions in the book. I love Christmas and weddings. They didnt keep in order with the settinge

White Christmas Wedding is a story of a young woman living in New York City coming home to Michigan for a wedding right before Christmas. What could be a lovely winter wedding including snow in a fun setting for a barn wedding on a farm. Next door neighbors and best friends forever, Jen Fitzgerald plans her friend, Beth Dean's wedding. This is Jen's jump into a career as a wedding planner. She always thought a wedding in her family's barn would be so great and now she has a chance. The rehearsal dinner is to be held in the Dean's barn next door.
Here we have rich New Yorkers meeting hard working Midwesterners, each a little leery of the other. And there is one problem after another-from Beth being presented a prenup to sign by her mother-in-law to be, to a bridesmaid having a few mishaps with decorations and her dress, another bridesmaid running in the snow and almost freezing to death, horses demolishing the decorations. Not to worry, all weddings have issues but all works out good in the end.
I tend to get frustrated with books where I read things that don't make sense or see a mistake. I had some problems as other reviewers did with the disconnects and the inconsistent flow. Even still, I did enjoy the story.
I received a complimentary ARC from the publisher through NetGalley. All thoughts and opinions are mine only.

This is a book that tells the story of everything that can go wrong at a wedding does

Beth Dean is trying to organise her wedding she really didn't want it in the Mid West in the middle of winter but fro her grandmother to attend that is what will happen Throw in car accident flower eating horses and just about any other disaster add MIL from hell and snobby guests and you have got the making a right royal screw up Will everything work out on the day You will have to read to see As we hade a bit of a cliff hanger ending there could be more in this series

This story is filled with lots of energy and fun. Beth and Tom live in New York but Beth wants to have her wedding back in Michigan where she grew up. Plus they decide to have a Christmastime wedding. There's usually lots of snow in Beth's hometown in late December and that causes some very interesting complications for the wedding. I really enjoyed reading Beth and Tom's story and getting to know their family and friends too. The wedding was beautiful! I am sure readers will enjoy finding out how this beautiful wedding came about.

A book about two of my favorite things, Christmas and a wedding? What could go wrong?

Apparently every thing a reader can possibly imagine, a broken down vehicle in snowstorm, candle decorations and flowers destroyed, and peanut butter on bridesmaid's dress. And that's just the beginning, there's a lot more, one disaster after another got to be too much. But worst of all is the mother of the groom asking the bride to sign a prenuptial agreement the day before the wedding! Her bitter and cruel comments at the rehearsal dinner was the stuff of nightmares.

There were cliché stereotypes that left me a bit exasperated, hayseed backward Midwesterners, rich people as snobs with their noses in the air, New Yorkers who think there's nothing outside of New York City worth bothering with. Also the name dropping and expensive clothing references, $500 bamboo t-shirts, Bergdorf Goodman, Lois Vuitton, and the Plaza, to name a few.

Then there were the inconsistencies, first Sylvia is an art dealer then later she's a lawyer, Jared Dean referring to his own family barn as the Dean barn, and all the flowers being eaten by the horses, but later on the arbor was "full of flowers Beth and Jen had worked so hard to choose and order", again just naming a few.

As much as I tried, I couldn't really connect with the characters, as soon as I started to get into one couple's story, the chapter would change and another of the 5 couple's story would be on the page. That's a lot going on for a 255 page book.
There was hardly any mention of Christmas other than just a little bit about decorations and a carol at the end. I'm sorry to say White Christmas Wedding just was not my cup of tea.
1.5 stars, rounding up to 2.

This is definitely my first feel good read of the Christmas season. The author's wry sense of humor shines through and makes the characters even more relatable. You get enveloped into the families in the delightful, fun romp of a book. The only thing that keeps it from getting 5*s is for the length of the book there are too many characters to fully develop them. If this were turned into a Christmas series it would be given that opportunity.

I'm a sucker for a really good Christmas romance. Throw in a wedding and some rekindled romances and I'm completely hooked. I will say that there is a lot going on in White Christmas Wedding and a bunch of different characters but Celeste Winters (isn't that just The perfect name for the writer of a Christmas romance?) makes it work. She seamlessly integrates the numerous goings on into one great read. Then characters are full of personality and a realness that is very appealing. The writing has a good flow from one scene to another. The story is clean, which I don't normally like, but it was so well written that I didn't notice the lack of sex until after I had finished. I think the emotions Ms. Winters brought forth from the characters was all that was needed on that front.
The only problem I had with the book is that there was a cliffhanger type of ending for at least one of the couples. Unless they will be getting their own story in the future.. Otherwise all we get from them here is the suggestion of a HEA. Other than that I can't say anything bad about White Wedding Christmas.

Sweet romance novel. Enjoyed the setting and the characters were so believable and real. Celeste Winters did a great job with this book. I look forward to reading more.

I hope this is a series because I'd like to read again about these characters and there're some stories that are let unresolved.
It was a cozy and entertaining read, heartwarming and full of Christmas spirit. I liked the characters and the setting.
I look forward to reading other books by this author.
Recommended!
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine.

White Christmas Wedding by Celeste Winte.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Returning home to her family’s farm in the Midwest for her Christmas wedding was never Beth Dean’s plan. But it’s the only way her beloved grandmother will be able to attend. And even her New York City friends will find the family’s old barn elegant. But when her fiancé’s family want her to sign a pre-nup, her hopes for her future marriage may be crumbling even as the guests arrive.

As the story played out I really truly thought I was watching a movie instead of reading a book. It was full of happiness and down home comfort. The characters were all love-able and relatable making you feel like you were friends.

This was a very easy read that is well written with flowing chapters. It left me feeling all warm and cozy inside. The way the story ends I have a feeling there is going to be a series of books. There are at least three unresolved stories at the end. Or I should say I hope she writes more!

If you are a fan of Hallmark Movies this is a must read! It was a heartwarming feel good Christmas romance.

Thanks to the author and publisher for this digital copy in exchange for my honest review.

This book was cute & funny & sweet. A winter wedding in rural Michigan is always a gamble, & this one was no exception. The characters are likeable & relatable, & the situations were realistic. I suspect this book was longer & an editor came back & asked that it be cut down as some parts felt like there had been more to them at one point. I hope this is a series as this title left at least three unresolved story lines for which I'm dying for more!
