Product Description What To Do Before "I DO" Along with helping you plan out each aspect of your wedding, from buying your engagement ring to making the honeymoon reservations, The Everything Wedding Book also explains how to alleviate a lot of the pressure and many of the hassles by using some simple advanced planning. It offers suggestions on how to deal with potential problems that may arise from difficult family situations, such as illness and divorce. And it gives you the lowdown on how to set up exotic weddings, too, if your budget has room for that. But if all you want to know is where to have your wedding, what to wear, who should take your pictures, and how to resolve all other practical issues, there's plenty of that kind of stuff in here, too. You will find everything you need in , The Everything Wedding Book. You will find answers to the questions of who (to talk to), what (to say and do), when (to do it), and how to handle (budgeting, styling, scheduling, etc.) and anything else you may need to know to plan your perfect wedding. The year-long calendar will help you map out an overall strategic time plan, and keep track of appointments, fittings, and payment deadlines. Keep this book handy and you'll have everything covered.

The book stinks April 5, 2007 This book stinks--literally!!!!! The book is good for planning a wedding but it smelled so bad I couldn't read it. IT smelled like stale cigarette smoke and must. It made me sick to read it. It should have been disclosed that the book had a stench to it. I was so looking forward to passing it on to my future sister in law but I had to throw it away because it smelled so bad. Please warn buyers of the condition of books being purchased.

Not terrible, but not the easiest read and a tad difficult to follow along with. Seemed to go out of order or jump around a lot. I would recommend the Unofficial Guide to Planning your Wedding or The Dummies Guide. Or better yet, do what I did and check them all out from the library first, and THEN decide which one to buy
A must have for all Brides to be! August 4, 2005 I don't know what I would have done without this book! It told me so many things I didn't know. I only have 2 friends that are married so I am new to all this wedding stuff and this book definately pointed my in the right direction. I even recommended it to someone else that is getting married! Get this book.
Offensive and contradictory October 24, 2004 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
I'm going to run out of room if I say everything I want to about this book. Suffice it to say that much of its advice is straight out of the Fifties (including all the stuff about your dad getting his Heart Broken because his Little Girl is All Grown Up Now....barf). Also, one page says that invitations should never be addressed "and family," and then about 100 pages later there's a sample invitation addressed to "so-and-so and family." This is what happens when 3 people write a book.
Nothing Special September 29, 2003 5 out of 6 found this review helpful
I bought this book off of the used section of Amazon.com, and boy am I glad I did. I would have been furious if I had paid full price for this book. This book does not have any information or worksheets in it that you couldn't gather from wedding magazines or off of the many different wedding websites. The only benefit that I can see is that all the information is in one place - but personally, I'd rather get it for free and assemble the information into a binder of my own. My advice - either buy the book at a discounted price, or skip it all together and invest some time surfing the web or a few magazines.
