review 1: Here's what it's about and a review:Bobbie and Ruth Ann have apparently not liked each other growing up. So it is awkward for Ruth Ann when they are attending the wedding of their siblings and they forced to sit together at the reception, a move by the couple’s parents. As they make the best of the situation, Ruth Ann and Bobbie find themselves in a sticky situation in the office of the minister who conducted the wedding. Throughout the night’s events, they actually grow to like each other and the ending turns out unexpectedly for them both. Sitting at the kiddy table might not have been such a bad idea after all. The Wedding Story is a short, fun and quirky little read. The playful banter between Ruth Ann and Bobbie is most enjoyable. I was drawn into the story very q... moreuickly and found myself laughing as I envisioned the scenes. While it could be construed as an unlikely story of love, I was left cheering for this couple. And as the story ends, it’s definitely a tale worthy of passing down to their kids.
review 2: Short but definitely cute story between two mortal frenemies.. Or so they thought.Ruth Ann aka Rhubarb was stuck in a tight-fitting, torture-laden bridesmaid dress and the only way to get out of it was to ask for help, from who-else but Bobby. Will Bobby help Rhubarb in her predicament, or would he rather stay with the ever-inquisitive kids at the Kiddie table? Will there still be a wedding when the bridesmaid had gone missing?This is one of the short stories that definitely made me smile. You may think that being a short one, it should be lengthened or expanded. But not for me. I already enjoyed the quirky scenes and relentless banter between the two main characters. There were butterflies in my stomach while I was imagining their big “fight” in an uncomfortable bathroom waiting for someone to assist them. The ending? I loved it! Truth is, while I was reading A Wedding Story, it was like I was watching one of the earliest episodes of Friends from Season 1, where Phoebe is Rhubarb and Bobby is Joey Tribbiani. Oh yes, they were actually my favorites from the tv series, so I thought of these two stars as Rhubarb & Bobby, and it definitely clicked! Just imagine this dialogue from the book like the way Phoebe talks to Joey:Rhubarb: You are the reason fungus exists! You are the slime that grows in swamps that even the acids can’t break down….Bobby: How long do you plan to keep this up, Rhubarb?Rhubarb: Why?Bobby: Because I was going to hail down a bottle of beer, I figured you might be thirsty for having your mouth open so much…Rhubarb: Make it white wine and I’ll keep it short.. I don’t know about you but that scene was simply hilarious! This book is highly recommended if you want to take a quick nap or on the beach, or waiting for someone to show up. I assure you, after reading this, you wont get mad if the person you are waiting for arrived a little late.4 **** for Dee Tenorio and A Wedding Story. ^.^. less
