Walk down the aisle with Jen Glantz, author of Always a Bridesmaid (for Hire): Stories on Growing Up, Looking for Love and Walking Down the Aisle for Complete Strangers.
After moving to New York City in her mid-twenties to pursue her dream of writingand not living on the Upper East Side of her parents house anymoreJen looked forward to a future of happy hours and Sunday brunches with her besties.
What she got instead were a string of phone calls that began with, "Jen, I have something exciting to tell you!" and ended with, "I'd be honored if you would be my bridesmaid." At first she was delighted, but it wasnt long before she realized two things: all of her assets were tied up in bridesmaid dresses, and she herself was no closer to finding The One.
One (slightly tipsy) night, Jen posted an ad on Craigslist advertising her services as a professional bridesmaid. When she woke up the next morning, it had gone viral. What began as a half-joke suddenly turned into a lifetime of adventure for Jenand more insight into the meaning of love than she was getting from OKCupidas she walked down the aisle at stranger after stranger's wedding.
Join your friends for an evening of sweet treats, champagne and hearing about the adventures of being a bridesmaid for hire.
