If you have enough savvy to put together events of any kind, then you don't need a "wedding planning course." You just need this phenomenal book!!!

I enjoyed my own wedding more because of this book.

This book helped me in so many ways. I enjoyed planning my wedding because of this book. It was humorous, informative and had great worksheets. With so many thoughts and ideas flying around in your head when planning a wedding I needed this book to calm me down and bring me back down to earth. I gave this book to a few friends when they were planning their weddings and they loved it. I had a great time reading it. My wedding was more wonderful than I ever thought it would be. Most of the stress was lifted from all the info and humor I rec'd from this book. It was my wedding planning Bible! Although I lent it to friends I always make sure I get it back because reading all the worksheets I filled out brings me back to my wedding day.

Entertaining

Though I agree that the "bridal consultant advertising" was a touch excessive, I still found the book to be a lighthearted look at the realities of weddings. I used it in conjunction with other books and it was the only one that lifted my spirit at a time when even happy things become slightly traumatic. This books has done the rounds amongst my friends and family who have gotten married and they all loved it.

Definitely the most helpful amongst all the books I got!!

I got about 10 books for planning my Big Day. This is the one that is most helpful. It tells you things that other wedding planning books don't tell you: things that the author learned from experience. Other bridal planners & magazines just tell u the basics, the etiquette and the boring stuff. This sets you for the emotion part, too : the way your mom's gonna go crazy, how you'll scream at your fiance, and real life experiences,too. You'd need this if you're not hiring a wedding consultant.

A book that covers all the basics!

When my husband and I started planning our wedding early last year, we had no idea where to start. This was the perfect book for us. It gave us the information we needed with a little humor to keep us from completely going nuts. We referred to it again and again for nine months. I even thought about bringing it to the wedding just in case but my husband talked some sense into me. We have since sent the book to a friend who is now using it to plan her wedding across the country. And, my husband and I have now started our own wedding related business because we felt like pros!
