A charming romantic comedy about three sisters who are struggling to keep the family wedding planning business afloatall the while trying to write their own happily-ever-afters in the process. Alls fair in love and business. The de la Rosa family and their wedding planning business have been creating happily ever afters in the Washington, DC area for years, making even the most difficult brides day a fairytale. But when their parents announce their retirement, the sistersMarisol, Janelyn, and Pearlare determined to take over the business themselves. But the sisters quickly discover that the wedding business isnt all rings and roses. There are brides whose moods can change at the drop of a hat; grooms who want to control every part of the process; and couples who argue until their big day. As emotions run high, the de la Rosa sisters quickly realize one thing: even when disaster strikeswhether its a wardrobe malfunction or a snowmageddon in the middle of a spring weddingtheyll always have each other. Perfect for fans of the witty and engaging novels of Amy E. Reichert and Susan Mallery, The Key to Happily Ever After is a fresh romantic comedy that celebrates the crucial and profound power of sisterhood.

This book was more about the sisters‘ relationship with each other and their wedding planning business than it was about their relationships with the men in their lives. Not that I‘m complaining, it just makes me wonder if this book should really be classified as a romance.

1. Sister drama at co-owned business. (That was tough to do!)

2. Here‘s my secret: eyebrow powder. I fill my eyebrows in daily because it makes me feel so good! I‘d stop using all other makeup if I could just have my eyebrow powder! 😂

3. 1947

Eggs Wow #2 I can relate to that! 1947.....?? I‘m intrigued. Thanks for joining in 👏🏻📚🤗 4y
HappilyEverKrafter @Eggs — I just love the clothes and etiquette of that post-war era! Christian Dior released his “new look” in 1947, and I feel like I would‘ve loved to get dressed and do my hair every day. Haha. Everything seems like it was beautiful and classy! 4y
Eggs Oh absolutely agree with post war culture/style @HappilyEverKrafter 4y

I bought myself a little something from The Ripped Bodice bookstore and just got it in the mail today - I‘m loving the description of my blind date (it‘s Vixen by Jane Feather - anyone read it?) And the solid perfume smells like the woods. If only I didn‘t have to go back to work and could just curl up with one of these... #romantsy #bookhaul

I'm hiding in the shade while my friend takes a dip in the hotel pool.

BTW, it's expected to be 117 today! 🔥 What are we even doing here?!? (The scenery is beautiful though. 😊)

BiblioLitten Pretty cover! 5y
bookandbedandtea @BiblioLitten I agree. It "looks" like a summer read and it's off to a good start! ? 5y

Three sisters from a Filipino family take over their family wedding planning business. We do have their love lives involved, but the focus is on the sibling drama and how it relates to their business. Some of the sibling trauma felt unnecessary and it would have been nice to focus on the romance more. Most of the annoying sibling stuff rang true though.

Having the most excellent of Friday nights. #currentlyreading #booksandbooze

readingjedi I'm a sucker for an interesting/cool/pretty label on my booze & that one is really nice! What's the contents like? 5y
Andrea313 @readingjedi So delicious if you like a lighter drink! It's a shandy-style ale blended with lemonade, rosemary, and raspberry. It's "The Power of Love" by Short's Brewing. ? 5y
readingjedi @Andrea313 Well, that sounds amazing. I love rosemary ... never encountered that flavour in an ale. 5y
Andrea313 @readingjedi Neither had I, and it's really good. I have a feeling I've found my summer staple. :) 5y

Enjoying this romance book club pick! It's more romance adjacent than straight romance, and I'm loving the sisters storyline, although I'm still glad I just have brothers.

Reecaspieces This is a cute story! I really enjoyed it. 5y

A lot has happened since the last time (~7 months ago) I posted- life got very exciting yet very hectic for me so I took a hiatus.

- We got engaged❣ 💚💍💚
- We had to move in w/my (future) brother in law for some time
- We bought a new home🏡❣
- A HUGE move.... again, 😖📦📦📦😓
- Had my condo on the market.. & went to settlement Friday!! 😅🤗

Finally feeling a bit more settled, lol. ☯️

A pretty light-hearted family drama about three sisters who own a wedding planning business and discover love around the same time. The two main characters are Marisol and Pearl, the oldest and younger sisters respectively. There‘s family conflict and a little bit of drama but overall it displays the closeness sisters share even when they‘re fighting.

⭐️⭐️⭐️

Day number five of #BookFitnessChallenge. I have met my four mile goal every day on the craziest week ever. I have been struggling through this book. It‘s just falling a little short for me but I will keep going... Headed to bed early tonight since I have an early morning meeting with my new boss. I have nothing to report to him because I have only been training the last two days. Hoping it goes well.
