I loved this book! Not only was Faith the Premiere Wedding Planner, she's also an unrecognized therapist! Drawing from personal experience, Faith is a ray of light for a plethora of the supporting characters. I will definitely be recommending to all.
Thank you Danielle Steel, Random House Publishing Group - Ballantine and NetGalley for allowing me an advance copy for my honest feedback.

This is a Women's Fiction. I found this book not to have the hard hitting emotional impact that other Danielle Steel's books have and that is what I want and really enjoy about her books. I liked this book, but I did not love it. I was kindly provided an e-copy of this book by the publisher (Delacorte Press) or author (Danielle Steel) via NetGalley, so I can give an honest review about how I feel about this book. I want to send a big Thank you to them for that.

I haven’t read a Danelle Steel novel in quite sometime but the title of this book intrigued me. I love reading about weddings since I’m an organist. The story is about Faith, a very sought after wedding planner and three couples whose weddings she is planning; a rich girl whose family wants the wedding of the year, a same sex couple, and a woman who is engaged to a very controlling man. Faith’s family including her twin sister and mother are also integral characters in the story. Most of the characters were likable but really no depth to them. I felt the language was repetitive at times. There are some triggers in the story; domestic abuse, and traumatic birth.
Thank you to Delacorte Press and NetGalley for this ARC in exchange for my honest opinion.

My first book by Danielle Steel and it blew me away! I will be a fan for life now. The words on the pages come to life in your mind. It’s so easy to follow this loveable story.

I received an arc copy of this book from Net Galley in exchange for my honest opinion of it. I did not finish as I felt it was not only repetitive but too much going on with so many characters.

Faith is a much sought after wedding planner. The Wedding Planner follows a few different couples who Faith has taken on as clients.

She plans all kinds of weddings from the smallest intimate wedding to the million dollar wedding. She somehow manages all the different personalities and expectations all the while reigning in clients who want the over the top type wedding. All her weddings are planned with taste and tact.

You would expect a wedding planner to be eager to get married herself. Not the case with Faith. After two failed engagements she is happy to stay single.

An easy read with great characters. Faith has an easy confidence without being pretentious.

Many thanks to netgalley and Random House Publishing Group - Ballentine, Delacorte Press for the arc.

The Wedding Planner by Danielle Steel is a third person narration of a trying season in wedding planning, led by Faith Ferguson, who is at the height of her prestige in New York City. Anybody who is anyone wants a wedding planned by her. Sometimes to the tune of $1 million or more. She has a truly competent assistant, Violet, who works by her side; a family: sister, Hope, her three boys, and husband, Angus; her mother, Marianne, who has been married three times; and her father, who lives in Europe with his wife and whom she sees irregularly. She had been engaged twice, but never married, and never planned to marry. Right now she is planning weddings for two gay men who are both professionals and both have excellent taste; a wealthy client who wants to show off his daughter’s wedding and his wealth to all his “friends” and clients; and controlling plastic surgeon who his marrying his surgical nurse. This last wedding causes Faith the most concern and she sees much potential for the bride to be at least, miserable, and at most, abused, in the future.

As she often does, Steel tells this story in the third person, with very little actual dialogue. She uses the technique very effectively and it works for this story. Each wedding has a personality, and despite her best efforts, Faith likes some of her clients more than others. They have have distinct personalities and even using third person, Steel is able to imbue each of them with enough to distinguish them from one another. Steel always writes a book with a happy ending, that is a plus, but it doesn’t mean a happy ending for each person in the book. Her writing style is clear and concise and entertaining. I always enjoy what she has written and this is no exception.

I was invited to read a free e-ARC of The Wedding Planner by Random House Publishing Group-Ballantine, through Netgalley. All thoughts and opinions are mine. #Netgalley #RandomHousePublishingGroupBallantine #DanielleSteel #TheWeddingPlanner

Another Danielle Steel book that it a must read. I love the way the Wedding Planner Faith loves her job and truly wants all her clients to have a fairy tale wedding and a day to remember. She then falls for one of the grooms brother and her fairy tale starts.
Thank you to NetGalley for allowing me to receive an advanced copy.

This was a fun read from Danielle Steel. This story is about a wedding planner, Faith, and her clients and leading up to their big events and all the drama which goes along with it. Faith has never been married but has been engaged twice. Faith's mother is on her 4th marriage and her sister is happily married and has 4 kids. Faiths clients are all different and want to have different weddings from the very minimum to the million dollar weddings. It was fun to read about all the clients and their dramas. This was a very enjoyable quick read. Thank you Netgalley for allowing me to read the advance copy.

Thank you, Net Galley, for an ARC of The Wedding Planner by Danielle Steel. Anyone who knows what I read knows that I love books written by Danielle Steel. They are like my comfort that's always sings to my soul. This one is phenomenal. This one I would recommend to anyone who wanted to introduce themselves to Danielle Steel's writing. This author never fails me.

While this book wasn't awful, I had a hard time connecting with the story. In The Wedding Planner, we follow multiple POVs, including Faith, a wedding planner, and some of her clients. Unfortunately, there was too much happening with nothing happening at the same time. If you're looking for a good book to read, I'd say there are much better stories by Danielle Steel you should pick up first.

Faith is a premiere wedding planner and enjoys planning all kinds of celebrations. Her life is fulfilled with her family and all of the many twists and turns provided with her job. While Faith is not looking for love, will love find her? This story is written as only Danielle Steel can and in her own unique way. Keep them coming please, Danielle.

I do not know how Danielle Steel continues to amaze me the way she does...another outstanding entry in the pantheon of DS titles. A lovely story of a wedding planner who is gun-shy about marriage herself after being burned twice by previous loves...a fast paced read with well rounded characters and stunning locations for weddings. As someone who also is a little gun-shy about marriage it surprised me how much I enjoyed this story...not that it changed my mind about weddings...ha! Fans of Danielle STeel will love this book just as much as any of the previous best-sellers!

Steel's signature charm always manages to sweep her reader up in a whirlwind of romance, family saga and the road to forever. I'm always quick to be engrossed into reading page after page as drama ensues and romance dazzles. I was more invested in Faith this go round than the clients we were getting detailed stories on, but the entertainment value of a Steel novel is always spot on.

I recommend this book to anyone that enjoys a central character that has her hand in the daily lives of several other characters while living her own life in the background. There is drama, scandal and happily ever afters all around.

The Wedding Planner is another fun, easy to read, Danielle Steel novel. The title captures the story quite nicely. As always, Steel populates her novels with strong women, who are survivors. Faith, a stellar wedding planner, is able to create magic for the brides and parents, who seek out her services. Her imagination seems to have no bounds. The weddings that Faith creates fulfill the dreams that any bride might envision. In fact, most of the weddings described are beyond anything I might have imagined.

Steel inserts a bit of tension quite nicely in The Wedding Planner. There are brides of all sorts, including a bride who marries the kind of groom, who will serve as either a warning to brides reading this novel, or as a means to escape a husband, who breaks a woman's heart. The characters and details are rich and complex. These are sthe kinds of women that readers wish they knew.

I enjoyed this novel. It is typical Steel, with romance and the kind of women her readers want to know and be. Thank you to Steel and to her publisher, Random House, for providing this ARC to read and review. For Steel readers, The Wedding Planner will be a special treat. Thank you also for listing the The Wedding Planner and making it so easy to access.

"I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own." Thank you Netgalley.

The Wedding Planner was an okay read I have liked her others books better 3 stars 🌟🌟🌟

My Thoughts:
Faith Ferguson is a wildly successful, unmarried wedding planner who leads her clients to happily ever after and she’s a person you want planning yours. She loves her job and family including her twin sister. But she just can’t find someone for herself. We follow her planning wedding and dealing with all the families drama surrounding the up coming weddings. I’ve read Daniel Steel books for years now and this is just a nice story with some drama If you plan on getting married, or are a Danielle Steel fan read this and learn.

Easy and fun read!

I loved Faith. She is so sure of herself and what she wants. I loved reading about the weddings she planned and the dynamics that come with them.
Her and Edward are the perfect match and were fun to read about.

A good book!

Danielle Steel brings us the story of Faith, the wedding planner of wedding planners. She is the one you want to plan your wedding. She has the ability to make all of your wedding dreams come true elegantly and in style that makes your shine. Of course, all of this wonderfulness comes at a hefty price. As much of a great planner Faith is, she does not believe in marriage. With broken engagements under her belt, a sister whose family keeps growing, and a mother who still believes in getting married, Faith is surrounded by love and marriage and hope. With the constant stream of new brides and grooms, will Faith's outlook on marriage ever change? Will her outlook on finding love again ever change?

Danielle Steel brings us the story of a woman's journey as she prepares brides and grooms get ready for their big day and everything in between. We meet three very different couples each with their own stories and styles and see how Faith handles them both when they are in crisis and when they are in the glow of engagements. We get to see what happens behind the scenes as a wedding planner and all the drama that goes with it and within her own family. You get to journey with the three couples from the beginning to actual wedding day and beyond. We see that life sometimes throws you curveballs and how we react to them. This is what keeps you turning the page and see what happens next with the cast of characters.

I received and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own. I would like to thank NetGalley and Random House Publishing Group - Ballantine, Delacorte Press for this privilege.

Another darling novel under the queen of women's fiction/romance fiction's belt!!!!!!!!!!!! I have been a Danielle Steele fan for 20+ yrs and I love each book in different ways. Every story she puts out in the book world is different, unique, and special in its own way.
