Pieta Martinelli's sister is getting married. Since she is a bridal designer it falls to her to make the wedding gown. But Pieta is distracted by a series of unanswered questions. Why is her father feuding with another Italian in the neighbourhood? Why is her mother so faded and sad? And could the man she's always held a torch for really be getting married to someone else?
As Pieta stitches and beads her sister's wedding gown, she uncovers the secrets that have made her family what it is and that could stand between her and happiness.
THE ITALIAN WEDDING is a feast of food and love. It's about discovering who your parents really are. And who you really want to be.
