Once Upon a Moonlight Night

It’s going to be a star-studded night at Club Wed . . . literally!

Bella Neeley’s at it again, this time coordinating a celestial-themed wedding for a local female meteorologist and her groom, a quirky astronomer/scientist with his own TV show for kids.

Scheduled the week before Christmas, this outdoor event is sure to wow guests and paparazzi alike. If the bride’s predictions are right — and when is the famed meteorologist ever wrong? — temperatures will be in the upper 60s on this starry, starry night.

Will it be clear skies ahead, or will stormy weather threaten to spoil the big day? Join Bella for a Christmas wedding you’ll never forget!


Tea for Two

Join Bella Neeley as she coordinates a Victorian tea party themed wedding on Valentine’s Day. It’s sure to be an event to remember . . . if the groom finds the time to show up for his own ceremony.

Texas senator Beauregard (aka “Beau”) DeVine is running for president and his hectic schedule has the bride-to-be worried about his lack of participation. Keen on making her groom happy, Victoria Brierley goes along with the “tea party” themed ceremony he has in mind. It matches his political views, after all. Bella loves the idea of a lovely tea party, but for different reasons.

The Brierley-DeVine ceremony is sure to be the most elegant event Club Wed has ever seen, and certainly the best attended. Even the Secret Service agents hover close as the day draws near. When things begin to go awry Bella finds herself in a political whirlwind, and all the more when Uncle Laz announces he’s running for president, too. W-w-what? A Rossi in the White House?

Chaos, humor. . .and politics? This story has them all and will leave you laughing all the way to the altar.


Pennies from Heaven

It’s back to Splendora for Bella and the gang, and boy, do they have their work cut out for them!

This time Bella’s planning a Parisian-themed wedding in the springtime, right in the heart of a crazy political season! Whew! Talk about a challenge.  And when the fine folks in Splendora find themselves split down the middle over their presidential candidate of choice, Bella’s in for a whirlwind of a time.

Throw in a flustered bride, a passel of rowdy children, and a BFF with big news, and you’ve got the makings of a fun (but crazy) story.


That Lucky Old Sun

Join Bella Neeley as she plans a summer beach-themed wedding in Galveston, Texas.

Darian Pappas, the younger brother of one of Bella Neeley’s best friends, is getting married! He comes from a large Greek family, so one would assume the wedding would be Greek-themed. Wrong! Darian happens to be marrying Ling Nguyen, daughter of Galveston’s all-too-stern police chief. Her family is set on a traditional Vietnamese ceremony. The bride and groom have opted, instead, for a simple ceremony on the beach. At sunset. In the middle of summer. And the temperatures outside aren’t the only thing heating up!

What’s a poor wedding planner to do? Why, coordinate the wedding of the summer, of course! Join Bella as she cools hot tempers, wheels and deals in the art of compromise, and even learns a few lessons about her own life along the way.


The Tender Trap

Join Bella Neeley for an autumn ceremony with a literary theme.

Literature professor Elizabeth is marrying pop-psychology/radio star, Walter. Their “bookish” ceremony will leave Bella wondering if, perhaps, she’s in over her head. Will the groom’s last-minute book tour interrupt the plans for their big day? Will the bride’s over-the-top “classic literature” theme prove to be too much for Bella? Can she balance family and work life to pull off the perfect wedding? Only time will tell in this chaotic, humorous novella by Janice Thompson.
