title: A Piggly Wiggly Wedding
author: Dalby, Robert
description: The enchanting follow-up to Waltzing at the Piggly Wiggly and Kissing Babies at the Piggly Wiggly--a Southern charmer about second chances in love and life, and the odd--and oddly funny--events that bring people together.
  
  Weddings are big news in the small Delta town of Second Creek, Mississippi. Especially when the wedding is that of the town's new mayor: the seventy-one-year-young Hale "Mr. Choppy" Dunbar, about to tie the knot with Gaylie Lyons, to whom he'd first lost his heart back in the 1940s. Hale, of course, used to be a butcher and proprietor of Second Creek's Piggly Wiggly supermarket, which closed its doors a few years back, but not until after hosting the wedding of Laurie Lepanto and her ballroom-dancing husband, Powell Hampton.
  
  Unfortunately, Hale and Gaylie's wedding plans are not going smoothly. Gaylie's grown children, both spoiled by their late father's money, are determined to second-guess their mother's move to this small Southern town--no matter how lovely the neighbors or pretty the scenery. It falls to the town's indefatigable army of matrons--the Nitwitts--to plan the kind of welcome for Gaylie's children that will get them on board for the wedding, and make way for more than one new beginning in Second Creek.
