Product Description Your Wedding Organizer is a one-stop resource for brides (and grooms) to be. This three-in-one portfolio takes the trial out of planning a wedding and puts the triumph back in. Your Wedding Organizer is just that: an organizer that can be folded up and toted around in a purse or briefcase. It includes three sections: a timeline, a planner, and a project book, all easily removed to be consulted singly or stowed in the organizer. The foldaway timeline provides an at-a-glance reference and wedding day countdown to keep the busy bride on track. With space to jot down notes and ideas and over 50 check boxes of what to do next, she won't forget a thing. The planner is a comprehensive guide to anything and everything wedding-related. From choosing the appropriate stationery to tossing the bouquet to planning accommodations for out-of-town guests, this book covers it all. The project portfolio offers suggestions on giving the wedding a more personal touch, including creative ideas for everything from cakes to attendants' gifts, with clearly written instructions and step-by-step photographs. Concise and easy to read, the project portfolio will help keep things simple and in focus. Your Wedding Organizer is the only book any future bride will need to plan and pull off a truly perfect wedding.

Not worth it January 11, 2001 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
This planner includes a timeline and checklist that could just have easily been ripped from the pages of any bride's magazine or printed (for free) from an online source. The arts and crafts booklet was a complete waste for anybody planning a wedding. It was a bit too country-crafts for a formal event. The booklet where you keep dress measurements and ordering information was helpful but definately not worth the price of the book. After all, it is the only section, out of three, that you will use at all.
Too flimsy and not very useful June 14, 2000 35 out of 35 found this review helpful
Before you buy this planner on line, go to a local book store and take a look at it. It's hard to visualize exactly how this is put together without looking at it. This might work for some people, but what I've noticed thus far is that it's very flashy looking but lacks substance. It comes packaged together, but is actually three distinct and separate parts. First, there is a "timeline" section, which is a folds up like a map and looks like it will fall apart as you go. It lists tasks and when they are supposed to be done on a months & weeks before wedding date basis. I think as you're using this, if you actually fold and unfold it frequently, it will completely disintegrate. If you put it up on the wall somewhere, then it might be okay. However, the whole idea behind this planner is it's portability and that takes some of the portability away. The second section is the "planner", which contains forms for dress shops, florists, caterers, etc. However, there is only one form for each one of those items. I'm not sure what the author expects you to do - photo copy them and use photocopies as you interview vendors? This kind of ruins the portability factor of the planner in my opinion. Yes, it's neat, compact, and fits in a small purse, but if you want to really use this planner, you'll be carrying along a binder or two filled with photocopies of forms. The final section, which is totally glossed over in the book descriptions listed here, is the least useful of all, the "projects" section. I was looking for a planner here, not a small book of arts and crafts projects that I could do. It's got some so-so looking projects for favors, veils, and cakes, but in this small book, there's no way that they could provide an adequate do-it-yourself project section. It just doesn't cut it and there are many other books of projects out there that would be superior. This planner might be good for some people, but I really didn't find it to be as useful as expected. I strongly recommend evaluating this one in person at a regular bookstore before buying it here. Don't waste your time on it unless you are sure it will fit your needs.
