Welcome to Willa Bay – the Wedding Capital of the Northwest

The first time Zoe Tisdale’s Barbie and Ken dolls got married, it was all about the ceremony. Twenty years later, she’s devoured hundreds of wedding magazines and planned thousands of events. All of her dreams will come true when she’s promoted to Event Manager at the lodge she’s worked at for the last decade. Of course, life seldom works out the way one hopes it will.

Armed with this knowledge, Zoe and the others take stock of choices they’ve made in the past and make decisions that will alter their futures forever.
