Great Book

This book was a pleasure to read and was incredibly helpful in my wedding preparations!!!!

A must buy!

A great book! I have given this as a gift to two brides to plan their weddings. What difference does it make if the author eloped or not? We do not need to know her reasons. Get past that point and stick to the advice or information given in the book. A good writer researches his/her topic and does not necessarily have to have "lived" through the exact same experience.

Great book from a top wedding expert

I've admired Leah Ingram's other books on wedding-related topics (she's a recognized expert in this area--and I've given several of her other books as gifts to soon-to-be brides!) so when it came time to plan MY wedding, I couldn't resist buying this book. I wasn't disappointed--it's chock full of useful tips that were relevant even if you're planning a wedding overseas. I recommend it highly--don't let the posts from the previous poster dissuade you. This author really knows her stuff!

Wow!

The Portable Wedding Consultant is a great find...and its reference to "saving your time money and sanity" is completely on the mark. Great tips and advice...and a terrific voice of reason during the insanity of planning a wedding. I bought another copy for my sister-in-law as an engagement present and she's already told me how helpful it is. Any bride-to-be...or groom-to-be for that matter...needs this book.

An invaluable resource for planning your wedding!

The Portable Wedding Consultant - Invaluable Advice from the Industry's Experts for Saving Your Time, Money and Sanity, by Leah Ingram. Just released in 1998 offering advice on everything from Bridesmaid Dresses (I let them choose their own), to Changing Your Name (still thinking about it), to the Honeymoon ('twas fabulous!) This book was a great resource, especially due to it's chapter on internet sites and resources, including: - the automatic wedding speechwriter - the site for Canada's Wedding Bells magazine - comprehensive wedding resource site in a magazine-style format.
