Double Dose October: THE WEDDING PEOPLE, Alison Espach

After missing our September meeting, we’re making it up in style with a double dose of October reading! Our second October pick, The Wedding People by Alison Espach, invites us to slip into a seaside hotel where love, loss, and reinvention intertwine in unexpected ways.

At first glance, it’s a story about weddings — about people gathering to celebrate joy. But beneath the surface, Espach masterfully explores grief, connection, and the quiet, complicated beauty of starting over. With wit, tenderness, and emotional honesty, The Wedding People reminds us that healing doesn’t always happen where or how we expect — sometimes, it happens in the unlikeliest company.

Join us as we reflect on the messy, moving, and sometimes hilarious ways we try to rebuild our lives! We will meet at Melt, Center Valley, on October 29th, at 6:30.

Can't wait to see you there!
