Planning a wedding is difficult enough, but planning a wedding for vampires?  This is not a job for amateurs.  Yes, in some cases, the fact that the bride’s parents have been dead for more than a century can make some decisions easier. But just imagine how an undead happy couple can complicate issues. Do you serve bottled or donor blood at the reception? How do you serve solid food to the human guests without nauseating the vampires? And forget wedding silver, because it will burn every guest it touches.

So, to recognize the efforts of Jane’s wedding planner, Iris Scanlon, we will share a page from her “reminder list” for the Jameson-Nightengale nuptials:

Nice Girls Don’t Bite Their Neighbors by Molly HarperJust as Jane Jameson’s unlife seems to be stabilizing, fate sinks its fangs firmly into her butt. Despite her near-phobia of wedding planning, her no-frills nighttime nuptials to her sexy boyfriend, Gabriel, are coming along smoothly. That is, until she turns a fatally wounded teenage acquaintance, and the Council pronounces her responsible for the newborn vamp until he can control his thirst.

Jane’s kitchen barely holds enough Faux Type O to satiate the cute teen’s appetite and maintain Gabriel’s jealous streak at a slow simmer. As if keeping her hyperactive childe from sucking the blood out of the entire neighborhood isn’t enough to deal with, the persnickety ghost of Jane’s newly deceased grandma Ruthie has declared war on the fanged residents of River Oaks. Suddenly choosing monogrammed cocktail napkins and a cake she can’t even eat seem downright relaxing in comparison.

Tensions inside the house are growing…and outside, a sinister force is aiming a stake straight for the center of Gabriel’s heart. Most brides just have to worry about choosing the right dress, but Jane fears that at this rate, she’ll never make it down the aisle for the wedding all nice girls dream of…

Three months after he moved into my ancestral home, Gabriel Nightengale’s last box was finally unpacked. The catch was that we could never break up, because I had run out of friends who were willing to help us move.
