The Long Goodbye by James Robinson Jr
Johnson Family Chronicles, Book 2
Under the sweltering Savannah sun, magnolia trees bloom and a posh wedding takes place. The happy couple, open bar, opulent favors and scrumptious food are merely window dressing for the real drama…Fifty-five-year-old Samuel is mesmerized by Kat, the gorgeous maid of honor who is half his age and is doubly interested in him. Samuel’s wife, Tabitha, fights desperately to draw his attentions back to her and their floundering marriage. Meanwhile, Samuel’s mother, Maxine, runs into a man from her past. As the liquor flows, lips are loosened and the truth wins out. Will Samuel be led astray by the promise of restoring his own waning youth? Will Maxine find new love with an old flame?

ReplyDeletewhen I married we were told that no confetti/rice etc could be thrown at the church as it was costly to clear away. Our wedding guests, having a wicked sense of humour, came equipped with tins of rice pudding and proceeded to (gently!) throw them at us!
ReplyDeleteThe bride wore black.
ReplyDeletewe were told we couldn't dance in the church and since the reception was at the church my grandpa brought music and we danced anyway. it was funny cause no one else would dance with us
