Customer Reviews

funny, good b'maid gift at this price

Fun book for adding to a bridesmaid gift bag, we had fun looking at it together. Not worth much more than the bargain price, though.

Great gift for your dedicated bridemaids...

I bought these books to give to my friends as a way to ask them to be one of my bridesmaids. It was a hit!!! The pictures get funnier and funnier with each turn of the page. It only serves as inspiration to strive a wedding that won't look ridiculous in 25 years... impossible!

Funny!

I bought this as a gag gift for my Mom because we always joke about horrible bridesmaid dress choices. She loved it - it was a little small, but good as a side-gift.

Lots of fun!

My daughter is getting married and wanted to do something fun for her bridesmaids. We saw this book and new we had found the perfect thing. The pictures are "a hoot" and the book was the beginning of a fun way to say a huge "thank you" to her friends for being with her at this time. She sent a copy of the book to each one. We think you will enjoy the book. We certainly did!

Three-time bridesmaid laughed myself silly!

Before I start, I must include this disclaimer: I'm an unabashed booster of this book, as Ms. Ilasco selected five photos of weddings I shot (the photo of the mean-looking bride with her red-frocked maid is one), and four photos of weddings I was in. But I am only one of dozens of contributors to this amazing collection! I thought my mustard dress was bad. I thought the enormous puffy sleeves on the blue dress were ridiculous. But I had no idea that wedding party attire could be as appallingly amusing as some of the examples in the book! When I received the finished book, I laughed harder with the flip of each page. If you've suffered through a polyester or taffeta nightmare, or selected dresses for your friends you realized in retrospect were totally unsuited to their body types, you will enjoy this book.
