No one would have guessed a marriage could sprout from a one-night stand, but Holly Radcliffe and Austin Bailey appear to be written in the stars. From the backseat of Austin’s Jeep to the altar they come. The town of Lake Starlight along with the Bailey’s are prepping for the event of the year, but as usual things never go smoothly with these nine siblings and let’s not forget Grandma Dori! … Dori!
This is a novella in the Bailey series and should be read after Birth of a Baby Daddy, but does not need to be read in order to enjoy the series!

I don’t know how she does it but Grandma Dori steals the show everytime she appears in a book and this one’s no different. The Bailey clan is planning a wedding so it’s the perfect chance to catch up with those whose stories we’ve already read and check in with those that are still to come. Dori is at her interfering, meddling best, Savannah is just about killing me with anticipation for her story and Austin and Holly finally say I do.
This book is everything I’ve come to expect from this duo. Their books are the perfect mix of comedy, romance and family values and I can’t wait for more from the Baileys family.
This short novella is part of the Bailey Series. OMG! This story is funny, sexy fast-paced and hilarious! I love these characters. For a better enjoyement, you have to listen to the first books in the Series before this one. I highly recommend this Series. (review updated with the audiobook version)
This was the perfect novella to tide us over until the next Bailey book. Not only do we get an update on our favorite family but get many of their POVs. I cannot wait for the rest of the series – especially Liam and Savannah! This is a voluntary review of an advance reader copy.
Everything I’d hoped it would be and more!
Finally Austin and Holly tie the knot. I love this family and all their craziness. These characters are so loveable and I really enjoy reading about them. The buzzwheel cracks me up and I’m so excited for the next book.

A nice little peek at one of my favorite hilarious families. Filled with the signature humor we’ve all come to love from Piper Rayne and a whole lot of sweetness, Operation Bailey Wedding will keep you smiling and have you longing for more when you’re done. I’m absolutely going back and doing a reread of the series now!
Not sure if I need to state the obvious or not, but you should probable read Lessons from a One-Night Stand (book 1) before you dive into this book.
Okay, so, I’m still laughing! Shenanigans run amok people! This little story was gloriously fun!! It went by way too quickly for me but I loved it!
These ladies can do rom-com incredibly well. It’s been a pleasure reading their work so far and I’m looking forward to even more shenanigans in the future! Their words just make me happy !!
With the much anticipated wedding of Austin and Holly, what could go wrong? Not much at all. Ha! This novella is much appreciated since Piper Rayne is taking a short break from the Bailey series. In this you catch up with the couples that have found their HEA and the rest of the family. Plus there’s some foreshadowing for a future couple that I cannot wait for! Expect all the mayhem that comes from Piper Rayne and some truly beautiful moments that weddings can bring out
It’s Time To Get Hitched
I just love a wedding. All the Bailey’s are back in Lake Starlight to celebrate. It’s about to get a little crazy.
The first Bailey is about to get hitched and if it can go wrong it will. Holly and Austin will just need to remember what’s most important.
Chaos and love is synonymous with the Bailey’s and this story will deliver on both. Either way you’ll get caught up with the whole clan. Enjoy!
I have loved the Bailey’s from the start and it was so much fun catching up with my favorite couples. All of the Bailey siblings come together to see the oldest of them, Austin, marry the love of his life, Holly.
I have loved this series from the first book and it only gets better with each new book. This fun quick read was everything I hoped for and more. It gave just enough of our favorite couples while teasing just a bit at who will be next.
I cannot wait to get to the next in this series! Savannah and Liam are sure to be intense, the chemistry between them is already combustible, and I can’t get their story fast enough. I highly recommend this one and all of the books in this series!
What a super fun novella to catch up with all the crazy that is the Bailey family.
I love that we touched on so many of the family members that we have come to love. Watching them all grow in their new relationships. Spending more time with the new additions to the family.
I love the feeling of closeness that we get with the Bailey’s and their little town.
Watching everyone step up to the plate to make sure that Holly feels welcomed into the family and that her and Austin have the perfect day.
Looking forward to see what comes next with the Bailey clan.

What a lovely Novella. If you have read the other Bailey Series you will love this invitation to the first Bailey Wedding.
With the Bailey family, love and chaos goes hand in hand. Nothing ever runs smoothly with this family but no matter what they all have each other there for them, whether they want them or not.
It was lovely seeing glimpses at all the Baileys and getting caught up with where they are now. Told from alternate Bailey family POV I absolutely loved it.
Can’t wait to see what comes next from this crazy, loving, humorous family.
Holly Radcliffe is the woman of the hour. Austin Bailey is frustrated because he doesn’t know what to do. Don’t know who these two people are? Than you need to start this series at the beginning. Another reason is because the authors give voice to other characters that also appear in previous books.
Grandma Dori is someone you need to experience from the beginning as well. You can see how much she loves her family but she gives the reader plenty of laughs. She’s one hot ticket. In this book however, there’s one part of the story where I had a tear in my eye.
The authors have created some brotherly interactions that may have you thinking of your own siblings. It’s a story that will have you feeling the love from beginning to end. But I ended up sad because the book was over too quickly. The authors were very sweet and left a sneak peek but I said, “No I’m not going to”. Knowing the next book isn’t coming out until October I decided it was better to leave it a surprise.
I was not compensated nor was I required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.
This is a quick read about the week leading up to Holly and Austin’s wedding.
You will get some good laughs!
Just about every Bailey had a chapter.
And I gotta say I really can’t wait for Savannah and Liam’s book.
I loved all the updates about the family.
Grandma Dori is my favorite though. I still think she’s the one writing the Buzz Wheel. I can’t wait for more.
Oh my word!!! I freakin loved this novella of all The Bailey’s mixed together for a wedding celebration!!! It was the perfect mix of all of them and what’s been happening and what is possibly coming up with Piper Rayne’s twist of romance and comedy. And that last chapter!!! Lord love a duck that last chapter absolutely took the cake of anything I have read in a long long time it was absolutely adorable and funny!!! If you haven’t started this series yet WHAT are you waiting on!? I highly recommend you start now!!!! By Tina
Operation Bailey Wedding is like a crazy family reunion! The book gives us a glimpse of what all the Baileys are up to as they get ready for Austin and Holly’s wedding! It is always fun and never boring when this Bailey clan all get together so get ready to check out all of the characters that we know and love for this family’s milestone event!
Piper Rayne brings us a cute novella that takes us through the chaos of the week leading up to Austin and Holly’s wedding. Everyone from the series is seen and heard from, most get their own chapter giving us their view of whats happening, either with the wedding or themselves. This is a wonderful addition, that gives us some really juicy laugh out loud moments, and a few drama filled O.M.G. bits. I give this fun filled novella 5 stars.
5 stars
Operation Bailey Wedding was just what I needed and everything I wanted from this quirky clan! Heartwarming, funny and sexy in all the right ways, OBW gives us multiple POVs from the different couples (and Grandma Dori, of course) to catch us up on their lives while Holly and Austin take us to the chapel! It’s also a great tease on the prickliest of the Bailey sibs and the guy who finally nails her (down )! ‘Bout time is all I can say to this two! Can’t wait for Savannah and Liam’s book later this year!

The Bailey’s are back with a little tease until the next couple! Ashley @ Carolina Chic’s Read
This is a short novella that gives you a glimpse of the first Bailey wedding and a little incite to how the Bailey Children are doing. This catches you up on all things Bailey and adds the Lake Starlight twist everyone loves! Thank you to Piper Rayne of feeding my Bailey addition while we wait for Savannah and Liam’s story!
Welcome back into the Bailey world. Super sweet, short novella read full of informative information as well as new and exciting stuff. I love how it catches you up with what has been happening in Lake Starlight and the previous couples as well as bring you into the next book in the series. Of course there is the wedding but not without all the funny happens that go on in Lake Starlight and with the Bailey’s.
