Summer: A Midsummer Night's Wedding

Chapter 1

Married. She was getting married in a few short weeks. Erin Nash tried not to hyperventilate when she thought about everything she had to do before the big day.

Well, not big. Small.

It was going to be a small wedding. She and Jared had agreed on that almost as soon as they decided to get married. Good. Small weddings were good. Except that she had a family who didn’t seem to have the same concept of small as she did.

“Oh, and you have to invite Uncle Eric, of course,” her mother had said just this morning on the phone from her summer place in Vermont.

“Uncle Eric? The last time I saw him, I was wearing braces.”

“He’s your uncle. He’d be very hurt if you didn’t invite him.”

“Fine.” She sighed. “I’ll add one more to the list.”

“Well, he can’t come without his family.”

She knew how much her mother was looking forward to seeing her only daughter get married. Still, she had to work on breathing calmly as she asked, “How many is that?”

“Well, his wife, your aunt Irene and their four daughters.”

“Good. Six more. That’s fine.” She was almost certain most of the people her mother wanted to invite wouldn’t come all the way out to Kaslo, Washington, for the wedding of someone they hadn’t seen in more than a decade. Almost certain.

“This wedding is growing faster than you are, Cupid,” she said to her constant companion, the border collie who’d brought her and her fiancé Jared together. He was moving from puppyhood into a full-grown dog so fast he seemed to change every day. When he heard his name, he trotted over and put his head on her knee, gazing at her adoringly.

She patted him. “Don’t worry. You’ll get roped into this too. Sadie thinks you should be a ring bearer, but I’m still holding out for best man.”

She added six new names to the wedding guest list and sighed. Originally, she and Jared had agreed on forty guests. The historic Kaslo Inn, which was special to them as they’d spent their first real date there, and Jared had first proposed there, could accommodate fifty wedding guests. The Inn contained twenty charming rooms so everyone who came from out of town could stay right at the Inn where the wedding took place. She and Jared would spend their wedding night there, host all the out-of-town guests to a brunch the next morning, and head off for their honeymoon.

However, the forty guests had already turned into fifty-seven and the invitations hadn’t even gone out yet. She gnawed her lip. There was no point fussing. How many of her friends and relatives would really bother to come all the way from New York to a small town in Washington state?

She tried not to worry and to keep up her work schedule. As a self-employed jewelry designer and maker, she didn’t have back-up staff or paid holidays.
