Keeps you sane! July 23, 2007
Read this in one night - and although I am at the beginning of the planning process - it made me laugh out loud, and I reckon it will be well-thumbed by the big day and beyond!!

Agree with the other reviewers, it is not very focussed on the actual planning - but is a great accompaniment to a countdown planner.

Lighten your mood & keep things in prespective. May 2, 2003

My chief bridesmaid has bought me this book. I found it to be more useful than I originally thought. This book is a good guide for the busy bride. If you find that you are virtually organising your wedding on your own, and that at times it gets a bit too stressful, this book will help lighten your mood and give you a realistic but amusing perspective on your situation. With great references to all aspects of planning a wedding, and all people involved, you will often find yourself confirming out loud and sympathetically -'I know! I Know!
With so many myths and changes between the traditional and modern ettiquet, this book will help you feel as though you're planning your perfect day after all and not the worst social event of the century.
Even my fiance was caught leafing through it for pointers!!
In summary- this book will definitely answer a few questions for you, and give you a realistic scope of expectations whilst planning your big day. Post wedding advice is also included, reminding you that planning your wedding day shouldn't be hard work- it's all about having fun and that life still goes on afterwards.

Laugh out loud funny and extremely helpful! January 13, 2003
18 out of 18 found this review helpful

This is a great book when you are starting to get dragged down by the seriousness of magazines, other books and relatives! It covers first hand experiences of all aspects of planning a wedding, giving you great ideas and pointing out potential pitfalls. On top, it is written in such a way that I have found myself laughing out loud. A very helpful and light hearted book.

A must read if you're a bride-to-be! November 1, 2002
22 out of 23 found this review helpful

If like me you are a giddy bride-to-be, but don't want to bore your friends with non-stop wedding talk, this is definitely the book for you! If you've already spent weeks (or months!) reading wedding books and magazines, this book will tell you nothing new. But it will put a smile on your face, and make you even more excited about the prospect of being a bride for a day!

Buy it, read it, then pass it on to all of your bridesmaids, best man, groom (!), mum and dad, and anyone else who's involved in your wedding, to make sure they know what you expect from them! Fab!!

2 out of 5 stars A fun read, but not terribly useful May 14, 2002

I thought this book was fun to read but I have to say that it didn't tell me anything terribly useful or insightful about planning my wedding. Buy this for a relaxing read but don't expect it to give you a vast amount of useful information.
