Shopaholic ties the knot


by: Sophie Kinsella
*****

Becky's best friend Suze is getting married-when will she ever, too? Then a
proposal from Luke lands into Becky's ring-free left hand. She's getting married!

Luke's rich mother, Elinor is preparing a fancy schmancy wedding at the Plaza Hotel, while Becky's mother is planning a wedding right at Becky's house...on the same day! Becky really wants the all-expenses-paid wedding by Elinor, with the flown-in birch trees from Switzerland and the Cristal champagne and $1,000 and over wedding cake, but she doesn't want to disappoint her mother, who is so excited as well. The wedding date comes closer, but Becky doesn't want to choose. Her wedding planner keeps on dragging her around the cake studio, shows the gorgeous invitations and the big Plaza ballroom, beckoning Becky while her kind, innocent mother is just plain excited.

What is Becky going to do...can Becky Bloomwood has to solve this. Fast.

The best part was when Becky visits the cake studio. She's trying a slice of cake when she asks the clerk how much it is-it's over $1,000! Becky almost chokes on her champagne and is even more wanting this Plaza wedding. She wants some royalty, you know...
