A fun, quick read by the one and only Danielle Steel. In the Wedding Planner we have Faith who's life centers around the clients she plans the perfect wedding for. I loved every second of this book. Finished it in 2 days.. Thanks to NetGalley for advanced copy for a honest review.

The Wedding Planner by Danielle Steel is a quick read that follows the life of Faith, whose life revolves around her job as a top wedding planner. She is surrounded by love and couples who are having babies while shying away from those things herself. The three big weddings of the summer all present challenges and Faith must perservere to help make each couples' wedding live up to their dreams while reevaluating her own.

I enjoyed Faith's interactions with her clients and her family and seeing her growth in her own personal life.

Thank you to Random House Publishing Group-Ballantine and NetGalley for the opportunity to read this ARC.

Faith is an in demand wedding planner. She puts her heart and soul into her clients. This book was a great read!

Faith is the most sought=after wedding planner in NYC but she has never found love herself. She is planning three weddings— an over-the-top extravaganza for a Long Island developer’s daughter, an elegant gay affair, and an event for an over controlling doctor and his nurse. This book got off to a great start but over time some of the wedding plans and details became redundant. The characters were very likable but their situations were quite predictable. I thank NetGalley and the publisher for the opportunity to read this ARC.

A book regarding Faith Ferguson a prominent wedding planner in New York. So many different types of weddings and the different people involved and the many different reasons for the types and expenses involved in doing the weddings. Faith was very good at her job with many different ideas for her clients but didn’t believe in happy ever after for herself. I enjoyed the book and would recommend it to others. Amazing the different styles of stories that Danielle Steel has been working on lately.

I loved this book. I loved the fact that the main character was a wedding planner. It describes so many different types of weddings. not only that she helped someone get out of an abusive relationship. I'm grateful that netgalley and the publishers let me read this in exchange for an honest review.

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.

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 cancelled ceremonies. Through her own journey, Faith will prove once and for all that there is not just one path to happily ever after.

Danielle Steel's inimitable storytelling style is the star of this tale of unexpected love, and fans will enjoy every minute. #TheWeddingPlanner #NetGalley #SaltMarshAuthors

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.
Thanks to Delacorte Press and NetGalley for this eArc in exchange for my review.

The Wedding Planner takes the reader on many wedding journies as Faith Ferguson, the wedding planner, plans and executes their weddings. I loved all of the characters and how they fit together. The ending was a little predictable and somewhat satisfying. I did feel like the writing was a little redundant. A sentence would say something and then two sentences later the same thing would be said, but in just a little different wording, it was a little odd. I also was a little annoyed with the fact that the main character constantly refers to her twin as her twin, instead of using her name or saying "my sister." I have twins and they never refer to each other as their twin.
Overall, the story was good and very quick to read. If I could I would give a 3.5.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for the advance copy of The Wedding Planner.

Thanks Netgalley for allowing me to read this book. Faith loves helping people get the wedding of their dreams. Her clients do not mind her fees because she delivers as promised. Her love life is non existent until she meets a brother of one of her clients. They take it slow and try to keep it a secret from her family and friends. His was an enjoyable read and I can not wait to read her next one.

Faith is a wedding planner with no faith for weddings for herself. She plans opulent, detailed weddings with the bride always kept in mind, no matter who’s paying. She has a twin sister named Hope, and a mother who is lousy at marriage. The clients and the wedding planner and her family all make for a great story!

I always love Danielle Steels book, for me they are such easy quick reads, this one was all about family particularly twin sisters who are extremely close but have such different lives. Faith is a very prominent wedding planner in New York who has sworn off ever getting married herself, this story details her life planning weddings and her relationship with her sister.

I loved the entire story and what happens when trying to plan weddings when you can’t control all the things that can happen, but yet she always made sure the weddings went off without a hitch, made close friends along the way, and found something she never thought she would want, this book made me laugh and cry like a baby. It’s got everything you need for a great story! Thank you Netgalley and the publisher for this ARC!!

Looking for a light palate cleanser? A book that can be picked up and put down at your leisure without losing flavor? This is it!

The plot has Faith planning the wedding for three different couples and is told from different perspectives throughout.

There is no smut in this story. And the love stories were hard to connect with. But I contribute this to the author focusing on the drama aspect in the multiple story lines.

The drama was the driving force in this story. Three different couples each with their personal lives in limbo but still trying to plan the wedding of their dreams. And the saint that is Faith saving the day in so many peoples lives.

Trigger warnings for traumatic birth, physical and emotional abuse.

Thankful to NetGalley for an early read, although I felt that it was not quite up to par with Ms Steel's usual narratives, It sort of felt like there was a missing plot. Also, I'm used to stories with surprising twists. Nevertheless, still enjoyable. Quite an eye opener, in fact, to see how much money can be spent on a wedding. My daughter's was $1700, catered in a nice reception center with an excellent professional photographer, my brother performing the ceremony. You just have to shop around and do the planning, yourself. Seems like such a waste, otherwise, especially if you're paying 2 million bucks, like some of this planner's clients.

The wedding planner is about a woman named Faith who, you guessed it.. plans weddings! It was a solid read, but I found some of the writing to be repetitive. I wanted to know what happened with the secondary characters so I kept reading but I skimmed through some parts. Good story just seemed to have some fluff added that didn’t need to be there.

Loved reading the engaging and enthralling story. Faith, a well-known wedding planner, is not only in charge of elaborate and expensive weddings, but also she's a counselor, friend, and confidant to her clients, family, and friends. Read the highly recommended, wonderfully written, and a must read story by the incredible and extraordinary author, Danielle Steel.

A wedding is a moment defined by an union between two people of which vows are exchanged declaring love. However, and what is reiterated repeatedly throughout the book, life is a series of moments of which all should be grabbed and lived to the fullest extent. Love has no bounds nor age. Faith is excellent at what she does but until she met Edward, she realized what was missing in her life. One cannot live on work alone. She realized then why Hope willingly walked away from a success modeling career to have a boisterous family with Angus. Why Marianne and Jean-Pierre chose to marry and travel the world together. Morgan Alex took a huge leap of faith bringing the two children into their lives within such a short period of time. In all of these situations and despite challenges, it was well worth it. Love truly does conquer all.

The story of a woman who is a great wedding planner but does not want to get married herself. She gets very personally involved with her clients.

The Wedding Planner by Danielle Steel Charming story, fun and entertaining read. The first part of the book features Faith, her clients, and assistants. The second part is about Faith, her family and friends and their lives. Pure Danielle Steel romance.
Thank you to the author, publisher, and Netgalley for the opportunity to preview the book.

Faith and Hope are twin sisters who have shared everything over the years. Yet they couldn’t be different in their choice of lifestyle. Faith is the most sought after wedding planner New York has to offer. Faith is disciplined, stylish, a bit reserved but truly professional. Hope modeled happily until she met and married Angus, now they live in Connecticut with a growing brood of children. Faith looks forward each January as the start of her calendar filled wedding events. We are treated to three very different large affairs, with equally different client profiles. As each story unfolds, each bride offers Faith a dilemma she handles with insight and warmth. The through line I found interesting is the fact the main character has no desire to marry at all. I found it heartening that her only wish was for the each client to have the day they wanted. Hats off to offering a look into the billion dollar industry that at least in this case did not lose the human element.
