Groom Karl Stipple keels over moments after eating a slice of cake at his own wedding reception. Now the police have locked down the resort, and wedding planner Julia is under orders from her boss to solve the crime and clean up the mess in twenty-four hours-- or she's fired.
For once, wedding planner Julia thinks a reception will go smoothly. Then the bride's heirloom diamond and gold engagement ring mysteriously vanishes. The police think they know who took it and have closed the investigation. It's up to Julia and her friends to save an innocent man from prison.
It had been exactly 5 months, 4 days, and 16 weddings since the last mishap, and Julia was happy that finally, she got to plan a wedding where nothing terrible happened. This wedding is looking good. So far, no one tried to steal the bride’s ring. No one tried to kill the groom.
She couldn’t be more wrong. This one is the worst yet.
