Married instead of murdered is how my own May nuptials
played out in 2022. While planning in January, I was writing Murder at a
Scottish Wedding…at the same time I was in edit mode for Murder at an Irish
Castle (written as Ellie Brannigan) a mystery about a bridalwear designer on
Rodeo Drive. It was fun and the many episodes I watched of Say Yes to the Dress
were research. Really. 😉
I discovered that the average price in the US for a
wedding dress was around the five grand mark, but that wasn’t my experience—I
even bought four before deciding that the most casual boho style was The
One. And less than a hundred bucks.
Because of Covid we had put the wedding off a year. We
kept our beach wedding very low-key, with less than forty guests. Spring storms
had been predicted, but that day dawned with blue skies. The airshow didn’t
start until around one and we said our vows at noon. All good! We were vaccinated
and boosted yet still ended up with Covid. We spent our honeymoon in different
rooms of our apartment—not exactly romantic, lol, but the day of the wedding
was lovely and all I could ever want.
You know someone really loves you, and you love them,
when you are both sick at the same time and don’t kill each other lol. We will
be together ten years this May and just might take that honeymoon.
So, tell me what's your favorite style of wedding gown?
Comment and you just might win an autographed copy of one of my books,
Murder at a Scottish Wedding

I am so happy to be here today!
That would be very classic, Marcia! good choice for sure
As soon as you said your wedding dress was a Boho design, I thought I'd like that too! Maybe hubby and I will renew our vows one day, and that would be the design I'd look for.
Love your book covers!
Hi Diana! Thank you so much for commenting. That style was really nice for our beach wedding. Maybe you can talk him into a whole honeymoon too lol
Hi Traci,
Sounds like your new marriage was tested and passed with flying colors! I enjoy cozies, and have added your name to my TBR list. Thanks for stopping by RTG!
Thank you, Lynn! So far so good anyway lol :)
Hi Traci, I've no idea what I'd wear should I ever marry again, I'm sure something more casual and formal. However, I will say watching "Say Yes To The Dress" is research...I used the information I learned about wedding dresses (at my one and only marriage in the early 1960's I wore a navy blue suit) for the weddings in my Sacred Women's Circle series.
A navy blue suit? That sounds wonderfully unique! Thanks for commenting!
Hi Tracy, Your books sound fun!!! Love the covers AND the titles.
My sweet mother made my dress and veil by combining 3 patterns to give me the dress I wanted. My bridesmaids made their own dresses of royal blue velvet. I wouldn't change a thing. I have fond memories of visiting fabric shops and lace shops with Mom to find the perfect thing. She was an amazing mother and an amazing seamstress.
My husband and I have been happily married for fifty-two years.
