A Wedding on Lily Pond Lane
A gorgeously uplifting, romantic and heartwarming read. The Angel Bell is ringing for Mia and Jet’s Big Day – but will the Wedding of the Year go without a hitch? Every bride wants the perfect wedding and Mia Ward is no exception. But she is the only bride in Little Pondale and everyone in the village has ideas for her Big Day. Drowning in suggestions, Mia needs some help. When she bumps into childhood friend, Breanna Wright on a shopping trip to London, Mia’s convinced it’s Fate. Breanna’s only ambition was to be a wedding planner with her own business, The Wright Wedding … so Mia doesn’t hesitate. Breanna’s now got three months to plan a wedding where the sky’s the limit, budget-wise. She should be over the moon. Especially as she’ll get a chance to see old friends again, including her first love. There’s just one tiny hitch ... Breanna doesn’t have a wedding-planning business. She should tell Mia there has been a slight mistake, but as usual Breanna’s life isn’t running smoothly and she could really use a break. And when you’ve dreamt about planning weddings all your life, how difficult can it be? Will this be the chance Breanna’s longed for? Or will Mia’s Dream Wedding be Breanna’s biggest disaster yet?

5☆ Simply Superb!!
Whoo hoo it's Wedding Time in Little Pondale!
Oh is so exciting to be back, and this time round celebrating Mia and Jet's big day! Who doesn't love a good wedding.
Don't worry it definitely has all the lil dramas, mayhem, excitement, fun, witty moments, you come to expect from a wedding.
Oh and of course love is in the air... and not just for the bride and groom to be 😉
Ok so I'm definitely not going to risk giving anything away with this one!!
This time round being part of the whole wedding from start to finish was pretty special. I've been on a journey with Mia and Jet and to be part of their wedding was the icing on the cake!
Every time I visit Little Pondale I never want to leave. The Characters have become friends, I love being privy to all the village gossip.
It's with a heavy heart I close the book on the final instalment, but ever hopeful there might one day be more!
As always Emily has written another superb Gem.
It's full of warmth, romance, charm, humour, drama, mayhem, wit, friendships, entertaining lil twists and plots, fantastic endearing characters. The perfect mix for the perfect ending.
Did I mention how much I Adore this series and Emily Harvale!
If you haven't yet had the pleasure of reading this Superb Magical Series then I can't urge you enough to pick up a copy!

Say yes to the dress and I do to Lily Pond Lane!
Wedding bells are ringing for Mia and Jet. But can Mia plan the wedding of her dreams in only three months? In a village drenched in superstition and myth can this wedding go off without a hitch? Charming and delightful this is the seventh and hopefully not the last installment in this beloved series.
Emily Harvale has captured my heart and soul with this enchanting book. I enjoyed every minute I spend with Mia, Jet, and company. There is even a new addition to this quirky charismatic cast of characters, Brianna. Brianna is a bit clumsy, but she is an old school friend and Mia has hired her to plan her wedding. The only problem is Brianna has never planned a wedding before this leads to humor, hijinks, and drama. Just like all the previous books in the series this story was filled with friendship, love, Romance, angst, and miscommunication.
This is an exceptional series packed with charming characters and set in a magical village. Perfect to read poolside, fireside, on your commute, or in your house. If this is goodbye I am sad to see these characters go, but I am forever grateful that they were part of my reading life! Absolutely recommend this series to all!
*** many thanks to Rachel and Emily Harvale for my copy of this book ***

Favorite Quotes:
Ella tutted. ‘He’ll never change. Almost five months living with me and I still haven’t knocked the ‘posh’ out of him.’ She raised her eyes skyward and laughed.
This village is a hotbed of lust, you know. If you’re looking for a man, this is the place to be.
Don’t let Garrick see that expression on your face… He won’t let you see Flora if you’ve got a face like a sad sausage.
My Review:
Little Pondale was abuzz with a new resident to gossip about, new romances to follow, and an exciting wedding to plan. I adored the new addition of the accident-prone Bree; she was highly sympathetic and endearingly awkward and sincere. Bree was a welcome item of fascination to the residents of the tiny village that consisted of a few lanes of cottages, a church, pub, bakery, vet’s office, and a long history of myths and superstitions as well as eccentric inhabitants such as the ancient Ben who was seldom seen but wondered around “dressed like a Jedi Knight.” I cannot seem to get enough of Ms. Harvale’s delightfully disarming and highly amusing storytelling. But I have to wonder, what does a “sad sausage” look like?

I was deliriously happy to be hack in Little Pondale along with Mia, Jet and everyone else. It feels like only yesterday that I read Return to Lily Pond Lane, so it was much easier for me to pick up the story than it had for me in previous installments.
This book picks up pretty much where the previous one finishes, so I reckon its best to read these two as a pair, but they are both wonderful, and quick and easy to read, so it really wouldn't be any hardship.
This was so amusing, romantic, and also just proves at a magical place Little Pondale is to live in. It was lovely getting to know Breanna, and there is plenty going on to keep the village gossips happy.
It's hard to know what to share with you, as the book is really quick to read, a sheer pleasure, a bit of a whirlwind, but with assorted sub plots. There are even some lovely surprises to look forward to.
I loved every moment I spent hoping that the wedding would go smoothly, and that Mia and Jet would be happily married by the end of it. Of course that doesn't mean that is the only romance, and there are some lovely interactions between some of the other villagers too.
All in all another triumph of a book in this very popular series.

Light, amusing, and addictive!
A Wedding on Lily Pond Lane is a warm, delightful tale that picks up right where Return to Little Pond Lane left off taking us back into the lives of Mia, Jet, and the whole Little Pondale gang, including newcomer Breanna, as the village prepares to celebrate the upcoming Cross nuptials.
The writing is witty and crisp. The characters are charismatic, quirky, and lovable. And the plot is a wonderful blend of drama, emotion, hilarious mishaps, banter, unconditional friendship, and true love.
A Wedding on Lily Pond Lane is the seventh and perhaps final story in the Lily Pond Lane series. And even though it would be bittersweet to say goodbye to all the characters we’ve come to know and love over the entire series, it is, however, still a lovely way to catch up with the whole gang and give Mia and Jet the happy-ever-after ending they undoubtedly deserve.
Thank you to Emily Harvale and Rachel’s Random Resources for providing me with a copy in an exchange for an honest review.

Who doesn’t love a wedding? I found myself tearing up quite a few times as the planning of Mia and Jet’s wedding gets underway.
Opening one of this authors books is like coming back home. There is just something so comforting about them. I just want to transport myself into them and live there and spend even more time with the characters.
Breanna is a new character and an old school friend of Mia’s. I really enjoyed getting to know her better and see what Little Pondale has in store for her and it didn’t disappoint. Whilst a book in the Little Pondale series, it easily reads as a stand alone as Breanna gets to know the rest of the residents better.
A Wedding On Lily Pond Lane is a heartwarming and idyllic read. I’ve loved seeing Mia and the rest of the residents and new comers evolve through out the series. Full to the brim with friendship, love and romance, this truly is a fabulous reading experience.

I had loved every story in this series and this one is just as great! It is written so you can read it as a standalone but I have to say that reconnecting with the great characters from Little Pondale is always a heartwarming experience. This story is, obviously, about the planned wedding of Mia and Jet which is scheduled for just three months time.
During her first excursion to London to look for her wedding dress, Mia encounters her childhood friend, Breanna Wright - who friends call Bree - who always aimed to run her own wedding planner business, The Wright Wedding. This fateful encounter leads to not one but two new romances in Little Pondale and so many laugh out loud moments you'll be left with a happy smile on your face when you finish reading this delightful story.
There are misunderstandings, wrong assumptions, conspiracies and surprises galore in this finale to Mia and Jet's story. I just have to hope that it really won't be the finale to the series, though, as I really enjoy going back to Little Pondale and catching up on the villagers . . . . and I want to know more about the expected twins, too!
I requested and was gifted a copy of this brilliant story and this is my honest review after choosing to read it.

From what I’ve heard this is the last instalment in the Lily Pond Lane series. I have read all the books in the series, with the previous one only last week, so I just knew I had to read this one to complete the story. It seems such a long time ago when we met Mia, heading to the village of Little Pondale, following the death of her Great-Aunt Matilda. By reading the other books in the series, I’ve become so involved with Mia’s life and have experienced all her ups and downs with her. The author has definitely saved the best book until last, and if this is the last story on Lily Pond Lane I will be genuinely upset at this!!
In this book, we arrive at Lily Pond Lane straight from the previous book. Mia and Jet are planning their wedding which is happening in just three months’ time. Bumping into old friend, Breanna, Mia asks her to be her wedding planner to help her get everything ready in such a short space of time. All the old familiar characters are there, with the addition of some new ones such as Breanna, and it’s like being welcomed back into the family fold. Breanna’s character was very likeable and her story was lovely and I was really hoping that everything worked out for her, both in her business and her personal life!
It was a heart-warming, romantic, feel-good story that couldn’t help but put a smile on your face. It was so jam packed full of love and romance that I expected hearts and flowers to leap from the pages every time they were turned! I do love a happy ending and you couldn’t get happier than this, and after reading all the other books before it, it was the perfect ending to what has been a very enjoyable series. If this is the last book of the series, I shall be very sad not to have any more visits to Little Pondale. If there is to be more books after this, well I will definitely be welcoming them back with open arms!

The moment the series has been building up to, the big day for Mia and Jet, is finally drawing near but will the wedding preparations run smoothly or are there still a few more bumps in the road before they get their happy ever after? You’ll have to read this book to find out!
While all of the characters we have come to know and love on Lily Pond Lane are back, this book largely centres around a newcomer to the story, Bree, and old school friend of Mia and Ella, who has a vital role to play in Mia and Jet’s story but also has a few issues of her own to deal with. I think Emily’s idea to make Bree the focus of the story was a good one, as I am not sure how many more difficulties I could stand for Mia after the previous books! Obviously some of the usual characters were involved, but I can’t say more without giving away spoilers so I’ll leave it there.
The book is written with all of the warmth and charm we have come to expect from Emily, particularly in this series, and it feels like a nice way to round things off. All of the loose ends for everybody are neatly tied up, maybe a little too neatly in places for believability, but hey, this is Lily Pond Lane, a place of magic and happiness so I think we can give the story a bit of leeway in pursuit of this for everyone involved.
Emily has hinted that this may not be quite the end for the residents of Little Pondale (A Baby on Lily Pond Lane, anyone?) but for now this book is the perfect way to round off what has been a gorgeous, feel good series with a cast of lovely characters that I am going to miss greatly. If you want a series that is simply going to make you happy, this is it. No mean feat in these turbulent times.

When we think everything is finished in this series, Emily Harvale gives us an extra, exciting and fun book. And you guys know I love this picturesque small town, so of course I couldn't wait to be a part of this wedding journey.
Since this is part of a series, I won't give any specifics but let me just say that I still love all the funny and friendly characters that we met in previous books and I loved how the author gave us a little more of information about them and that's always fun. Then, as if that wasn't enough we get a wedding and all it entails. So of course it's funny, dramatic, romantic and exciting.
We also are introduced to new characters that give some new flavor to the story and lot's of romance, because of course this small town has to have romances or it wouldn't be the fluffy novel we all know and love. It all made the book a perfect addition to the series, because of all the added information and journey it take us in.
Overall, I love this book and I loved it because I felt like I was a part the journey, helping out planning the wedding, spending time with friends, falling in love with some yummy characters...
I recommend this book and the series to everyone that loves Light Hearted Romances. It's a book that has friendship, romance, some kind of mystery or fun event that spices up the story, all of that in a small town that is as peculiar as it's residents... and who don't love that?

Yes it was only a few days ago I reviewed ‘Return to Lily Pond Lane‘ but 1) who can wait for a wedding (?!) and 2) Everything in Little Pondale moves on so quickly it was only fair real life reflected this!
And back we are with Mia, who’s planning the wedding of her dreams to Jet Cross. And with a budget most people can only dream of she can plan big! The only thing is, she suddenly realises it’s not as easy to organise as she thought.
Enter Bree, whose introduction to us was excellent! I hearted Bree and was really gunning for her to succeed in her ‘wedding planning business’ As with all Lily Pond Lane books there’s whirlwind romances that are satisfying and fall nicely into place and I was happy that things clicked in nicely! I’ll admit if I had an issues at all (which I didn’t really), it was a wish that this book was longer so some stuff could have been delved into a little more, but all was brilliantly down with romance and descriptions that made my heart flutter. One that fans of Lily Pond Lane will not only enjoy, but devour, relish and appreciate. Very much recommended!Thanks so much to the lovely Emily Harvale and Rachel at Rachel Random Resources for the book in return for an honest review and for letting me take part in this lovely blog tour!

What a glorious feel-good read - and the perfect ending to a wonderfully happy series!
As Mia and Jet begin to plan their wedding, they realise they need help. Shopping for 'the' dress in London, Mia finds her old school friend Breanna and remembers that she always talked about setting up her own wedding planning business so immediately hires her to deal with all the details which she finds overwhelming. With a newcomer to the village, Little Pondale's residents all make an appearance in this novel - some more than others!
I read this book on 20 March which just happens to be International Happiness Day and it was the perfect read! It's no secret that I love this series; each book has been such a pleasure to read and has left me smiling, but this one is the pinnacle and a glittering read. Catching up with all the relationships has left no loose ends and it's been a joy to follow the ups and downs of Mia and her friends which, let's face it, have multiplied several times over since the first instalment. It's not all plain sailing in the final one, but as the curtain closes on Little Pondale all the questions have been answered, all the mysteries have been solved and happiness abounds. Perfect! Without a doubt, Emily Harvale has earned every single one of the five sparkling, dancing stars which I'm delighted to give this highly recommended read! I look forward to finding out where her writing goes next.

Catching up with all the relationships has left no loose ends and it's been a joy to follow the ups and downs of Mia and her friends which, let's face it, have multiplied several times over since the first instalment. It's not all plain sailing in the final one, but as the curtain closes on Little Pondale all the questions have been answered, all the mysteries have been solved and happiness abounds. Perfect! Without a doubt, Emily Harvale has earned every single one of the five sparkling, dancing stars which I'm delighted to give this highly recommended read! I look forward to finding out where her writing goes next.

This proved to be a great episode in Mia and Jet's story and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I really admire how Emily introduces new characters into her stories and in A Wedding on Lily Pond Lane, we met Breanna. She turned out to be a well drawn and believable character with some human flaws but a great heart. She fitted in just right!
This was always going to be an uplifting and warm read. It felt as though it sped by as all the characters came together and new romances bloomed. Escapist? Yes. Romantic? Yes. Comfort reading? Yes. It has been a great series and I am just hoping that Emily will return there someday soon.
In short: Romance blooms ever in Little Pondale.
Thanks to the author for a copy of the book.

When I saw there was a new Lily Pond Lane book, I scooped it up right away. I couldn’t wait to spend time with Mia, Jet, Ella and the rest of the Lily Pond gang. This latest book didn’t disappoint. From the very beginning, I was completely absorbed in the wedding planning, the character interactions and the story line. This is an easy, heartwarming read - like comfort food for the heart.
Emily Harvale creates charming, quirky characters who grab my attention and keep me interested throughout the story. I hope she isn’t finished yet with Lily Pond Lane. They are friends I want to keep visiting.

This is the last book in the series! NOOOOO. I came into this series a bit late but will definately be going back to read the first books as soon as possible, did read perfectly fine as a standalone though. Short, snappy and packed with a lot of love, friendship and celebration. Heart warming. Uplifting. Parts had me laughing out loud.
The perfect ending to this series. Brilliantly written, an easy read. All the characters feel like friends and family, the town is cute and welcoming. I absolutely loved it. Highly recommend. A well deserved four stars.

Wow
Well she did it again!!
Beautifully written, funny, emotional and heartfelt. The love you have for these characters is all down to Emily's gift of writing characters that you want to be best friends with. Can't wait for the next and hopefully not last book.

Another Great Book
Loved this book. In fact I love the whole series. It tells a story of two people didn't destined to be together. They have ups and downs, but get there in the end. Just ordered Wedding on Lily Pond Lane. It's a happy book and a comfortable read.

A heart warming read. I've loved the whole series. The story just draws you in and you feel a part of the village. It did make me feel emotional and I love a wedding. I hope there will be more.

Another fabulous book from this wonderful series.
As always filled with lots of fun and some surprises!
I enjoyed the new character of Bree, and was interested to see how things were resolved with Garrick.
Recently I have binge read all of the books in the Lily Pond series, and I know I’m going to miss this place until the next book is written and published!
