But alongside that, I thought the theatrics were a bit over the top. I laughed here and there at some of the wild things that were happening. The setting was the perfect event for plenty of antics and hijinks. I liked seeing all of the Aunties and Meddy again. I LOVED the first book in this series, and while I enjoyed this read, it’s not a favorite. The aunties are back, fiercer than ever and ready to handle any catastrophe–even the mafia–in this delightful and hilarious sequel by Jesse Q. Her aunties and mother won’t let Meddy’s wedding ceremony become a murder scene–over their dead bodies–and will do whatever it takes to save her special day, even if it means taking on the mafia.

Horrified, Meddy can’t believe Staphanie and her family aren’t just like her own, they are The Family–actual mafia, and they’re using Meddy’s wedding as a chance to conduct shady business. Meddy realizes that is where their similarities end, however, when she overhears Staphanie talking about taking out a target. Meddy is hesitant at first, but she hits it off right away with the wedding photographer, Staphanie, who reminds Meddy of herself, down to the unfortunately misspelled name. As a compromise, they find the perfect wedding vendors: a Chinese-Indonesian family-run company just like theirs. Instead of having Ma and the aunts cater to her wedding, Meddy wants them to enjoy the day as guests. Now the day has arrived, and she can’t wait to marry her college sweetheart, Nathan. Meddy Chan has been to countless weddings, but she never imagined how her own would turn out.
