But first they have to find Mr Right…

This month: Melissa James THE BRIDEGROOM’S SECRET

Planner: Julie’s always been the wedding planner—will she ever be the bride…?

And don’t miss the exciting wedding planner tips and author reminiscences that accompany each book!

Melissa shares her own unique wedding and honeymoon experience with us:

‘As far as weddings go, mine was very simple. We were pretty poor, and it seemed a waste of money to me to buy an expensive dress. So I bought an ex-rental at a store for $50. We had the reception at my grandfather’s bowling club. The whole wedding cost less than $2000. We started our married life in a small apartment near a prison, and our first house, a year later, was a tiny one in a run-down area. None of this made the marriage any the worse, since we’ve now been married almost 25 years, with three children and still going strong.

‘It also seems I followed in the best tradition of The Wedding Planners authors and had an unusual start to my wedding, when a sudden storm broke out as we pulled up. It was blinding rain, and the chauffeur carried me into the church!

‘We also didn’t have the usual honeymoon destination. In a country where almost everyone chooses Bali, Fiji, The Gold Coast or the Whitsunday Islands on the Great Barrier Reef, we took a driving tour along the Bushranger Roads of our state. We hid behind Captain Thunderbolt’s (“the gentleman bushranger”) Rocks, stood where his woman, Maryanne, was caught, visited his folk museum and the prison he was housed in, and where his gang holed up. We also stayed in a tiny cabin in the middle of nowhere in a National Park. Romance in rustic surrounds!

‘In THE BRIDEGROOM’S SECRET, you’ll discover Julie’s hidden talent for finding unusual honeymoon destinations. This talent changes her life…thanks to Matt. Most of the places mentioned are places I’ve been blessed enough to visit in my life. Since we moved to Europe, I’ve definitely found many new and unusual places…and amazing people wherever we go. I hope you find a few of those places and people enriching the story.’
