5 out of 5 stars Stress relief during the wedding planning process   December 4, 2002
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I received this book as a gift about 6 months before our wedding and have recommended it to many people. This is not a serious wedding planner. The Title and the cover should be a good indication that this is a humorous book. This is a great book for a couple planning to take the leap.

Occasionally, I would pick up this book and thumb through to an appropriate chapter and start reading .. and laughing. When you bring home a 12 inch stack of Bride and Wedding magazines [they sell them by the pound], it is easy to get caught up in the pressures of wedding planning, and this is a great retreat.

The book takes every aspect of the process [Dresses for Bride and Bride's maids, invitations, reception location .. honeymoon and honeymoon night] and gives you some funny things to consider.

Pay special attention to the Bride's schedule [counts down from 9 months before the wedding] and the Groom's schedule .. I laughed out loud!!


5 out of 5 stars I laughed till my face and sides hurt!!! Fabulous   October 15, 1999

This is the second time I am buying this book. The first copy I read and gave away to a friend who was getting married and they loved it. Now I am buying it again for myself. No it is not a wedding planner but with weddings being such a hassle, 'reality' needs to come back into the picture. This book refocuses the whole wedding party on what is really important via humor and comedy. Buy it for that reluctant or grumpy person(s) in your wedding party!!!


2 out of 5 stars Not quite what it pretends to be...   February 6, 1997
 8 out of 9 found this review helpful

This book is not what it bills itself as; that is, a guide to wedding planning. It's really more of a humorous or satirical book ABOUT planning a wedding, or a spoof on more traditional wedding guides. It won't help you plan at all, though it may make you laugh sometimes, which could be usefull if you've o.d.-ed on more conventional wedding advice. However, beware: it has an annoying tendancy to sink into hackneyed gender stereotypes-- all women want to get married and have lavish, traditional ceremonies, all men avoid matrimony unless tricked or manipulated into it by scheming women, and, once snared, they are completely uninterested in the event itself, etc., etc. If you go for that kind of humor, it may amuse you, but don't purchase it if you want practical wedding planning help
