• Discusses Big Wedding Frills For Those On A Budget
07 May, 2010
The authors hold the view that the wedding industry is a racket, but they buy into the consumer's dream and just give you tips on how to play the game and beat the racket, not leave it behind. If you are on a budget and just starting your look at how you want to celebrate the start of your marriage, I recommend _One Perfect Day: The Selling of the American Wedding_ (a little academic, but eye-opening) or _Brides, Inc_. Does your wedding have to be $30,000 extravaganza? No. Does it have to be a bargain-basement version with an over-priced at any price white meringue dress, tasteless multi-tiered cake and tons of tulle ?
No. Just remember: it's a ceremony followed by a party with people you love and who love you. If you want the frills but lack the cash, then maybe this book is for you.

• Plain, But Informative
28 March, 2010
There is a LOT of good information in this book. It's well written and I guess for the price you get what you pay for, but I would've liked to see this a bit more expanded with color details.
There's lots of good advice for saving money, but some of the websites are dated.
Overall I would recommend.

• A Must Buy To Plan Your Wedding!
10 May, 2010
25 years ago I was a wedding photographer, and on the side I was a bridal consultant. I worked the wedding scene for many years. Now that my daughter is getting married and my husband and I are responsible for the bill. I wanted to know how much things have changed in the wedding business. I read the Bridal Bargains Book and to my surprise not much has changed. The wedding business is a ripoff in all aspects. You say the word wedding and the price goes up at least 50%. This book is a world of knowledge on how to avoid over spending and gives key tips on saving money. There is very sound advice in this book. I highly recommend this book! I will be buying it for all the brides to be and their parents in my life.

• Fantastic - Lots Of Detail And Specifics
17 April, 2010
This is now the second "version" of this book that I have bought. It is FILLED with detail and specifics, without sacrificing the over-all "big picture" ideas that you need to keep in mind when planning a wedding. The book works for almost anyone (there is a section for those that live in Canada too!) and I would highly recommend this book to anyone thinking about getting married.
