Their remarkable journey began in 2007 with the New York Times bestseller, The Wednesday Letters.

Now comes the next stage of one family's journey to survive their past and forge their own future. With no more secrets...

When Noah Cooper "bumps" into Rachel, he thinks it's love at first sight. Rachel isn't so sure. In time, Noah's charm pays off and he introduces his bride-to-be to a special Cooper family tradition -- the wedding letters. Family and friends of the happy couple are invited to send letters of advice on love, life, and happiness.

However, when a dark secret from Rachel's past surfaces, will Noah, and his parents, Malcolm and Rain, be able to help save the wedding from disaster? And what about the scrapbook of wedding letters that have already been gathered? Could a single letter really provide the answer that will bring Rachel back?

Set against the backdrop of Virginia's Shenandoah Valley, The Wedding Letters will remind you that sometimes, no matter the secrets of years past, two hearts can still be one. And by the final page, you might just want to create your own book of wedding letters for someone you love.

3.0 out of 5 stars Great Characters, Quick Resolution October 13, 2011

By phanmusic

Format:Hardcover

Like the Wednesday Letters, this book does a fantastic job with character development. The characters are distinguishable and some are quite charming. They are also very real. They have their problems, their faults, and their good qualities. This book helps the reader define people not just by their deeds, but by their ambitions and personalities as well.

My only complaint with this book is my same problem with Wednesday Letters. After a great book with a great story, it ended too quickly, meaning that everything was resolved in a matter of pages. The ending doesn't seem to do the rest of the book justice. That being said, the book is still definitely worth reading.

I have read all of Jason Wright's books and this is by far the best one yet! It was a great addition to Wednesday Letters and is exactly what I wanted when I finished Wednesday Letters. You will fall in love with the characters and relate to so many stories in the book. I also think it is impossible to read it without tears! I hope to start this tradition in my family. This is a very good book!

4.0 out of 5 stars A Great Sequel to The Wednesday Letters!! May 29, 2012

By S. Staley

Format:Hardcover

The Wedding Letters is a continuation of the story of the Cooper family that started in The Wednesday Letters. The Wedding Letters can stand on it's own, but it will be a more fulfilling read if you have read The Wednesday Letters first.

The story centers around the main characters, Noah Cooper and his future bride, Rachel. All of the characters are so wonderfully rich, and colorful. They remind you of your neighbors and family members, so you connect quickly with them. Previous readers of this series remember soon what they loved about the Cooper family, and also what they disliked about some of them. By all means, this is not a story about a perfect family, but I believe they don't exist. That would be boring to read about a family with no flaws. Jason writes his characters with enough flaws, that you root for them as they grow, learn, and sometimes change for the better.

I enjoyed reading about the concept of "The Wedding Letters". The fun part for me being a single, divorced women, is that I hopefully will get married again. I would love to follow this tradition the next time I get married. You don't have to be in your twenties to have a gift of Wedding Letters done for you. Down below I have a video showing what exactly The Wedding Letters Tradition is.

The Wedding Letters overall is a short, sweet read that most readers will enjoy.The main themes of love, forgiveness,and moving forward, will make up for some of the predictability in the storyline. This will not take away from the feeling of contentment and resolution felt at the end of the story. I truly love reading stories by Jason Wright.

The Wedding Letters was a 2011 Whitney Award Nominee in the General Fiction category.
