Book Reviews of The Wedding Book: The Big Book for Your Big Day
Book Review: Thorough, supportive and honest
Summary: 5 Stars
I have depended extensively on this book in planning my wedding for this summer. It offers valuable tips for every stage of planning, addresses common concerns, and provides guidance for style, etiquette, and organization. Some of the key features of the book include an extremely helpful time-line and checklist for any length of engagement, suggestions for photo combinations to give the photographer in advance, detailed information to guide any bride in buying the wedding dress, and excellent "Frequently Asked Questions" throughout each chapter that truly are the questions any bride always asks! I would recommend this book to any newly engaged couple looking for some support in planning their wedding day.

More than 2.2 million North American couples tie the knot each year; until now, only a mere fraction could work with celebrity wedding planner Mindy Weiss.

And now she shares all of her hard-won experience, wisdom, inspiration, and style tips.The Wedding Book covers everything, in a voice filled with understanding: announcing the engagement, and what to do when someone isn't happy about the news; creating a budget; the pros and cons of destination weddings. Drawing up the guest list; planning the ceremony (and how to personalize your vows); menus to inspire; contracts and wedding insurance. Shopping for the dress, six great hairstyles, tuxedo vs. dinner jacket, the etiquette of invitations. Style tips for flowers, the tabletop, linens; a cake that says "you"; the crucial "Sixty Days Until I Do"; rehearsal dinner strategies; plus freezing the cake and preserving the bouquet.
Today the average cost of a wedding is $25,000?at $19.95, The Wedding Book is the smartest investment a bride-to-be could make.
