A Southern wedding, not a royal wedding, but will put you in
the mood for LOVE!
The enchanting follow-up to Waltzing at the Piggly Wiggly
and Kissing Babies at the Piggly Wiggly-a Southern charmer
about second chances in love and life, and the odd-and oddly
funny-events that bring people together. Weddings are big news in the small Delta town of Second
Creek, Mississippi. Especially when the wedding is that of
the town's new mayor: the seventy-one-year-young Hale "Mr.
Choppy" Dunbar, about to tie the knot with Gaylie Lyons, to
whom he'd first lost his heart back in the 1940s. Hale, of
course, used to be a butcher and proprietor of Second
Creek's Piggly Wiggly supermarket, which closed its doors a
few years back, but not until after hosting the wedding of
Laurie Lepanto and her ballroom-dancing husband, Powell Hampton. Unfortunately, Hale and Gaylie's wedding plans are not going
smoothly. Gaylie's grown children, both spoiled by their
late father's money, are determined to second-guess their
mother's move to this small Southern town-no matter how
lovely the neighbors or pretty the scenery. It falls to the
town's indefatigable army of matrons-the Nitwitts-to plan
the kind of welcome for Gaylie's children that will get them
on board for the wedding, and make way for more than one new
beginning in Second Creek.
