A propulsive and uncommonly wise novel about one unexpected Wedding guest and the surprising People who help us start anew.
In turns uproariously, absurdly funny and devastatingly tender, Alison Espach\'s The Wedding People is a look at the winding paths we can take to places we never imagined--and the chance encounters it sometimes takes to reroute us..
Meanwhile, the bride has accounted for every detail and every possible disaster the weekend might yield except for, well, Phoebe--which makes it that much more surprising when the women can\'t stop confiding in each other.
Phoebe is here because she\'s dreamt of coming for years--she hoped to shuck oysters and take sunset sails with her husband, only now she\'s here without him.
She\'s immediately mistaken by everyone in the lobby for one of the Wedding people, but she\'s actually the only guest at the Cornwall who isn\'t here for the big event.
It\'s a beautiful day in Newport, Rhode Island, when Phoebe Stone arrives at the grand Cornwall Inn wearing a green dress and gold heels, not a bag in sight, alone.
