Pleased with ideas March 14, 2001
4 out of 8 found this review helpful
I bought this book based on the other book review listed here and I agree, there are many, many great ideas for all occasions. I was actually looking more for a "how-to" book but this caught my eye and I'm glad I purchased it.
 Great ideas and details for across the seasons! February 22, 2001

I wanted to get some sort of book for ideas because all that the brick-thick bridal magazines do is show you wedding gown after wedding gown with the occasional bridesmaids gown thrown in for variety. I wanted ideas for place settings, place cards, flower arrangements, cakes, favors, and even menus and was getting frustrated.When I ordered this book, I was a little concerned because it is advertised as a reception for each of the four seasons. I'm having a winter wedding, so I was thinking "Oh Great- I'm only going to be able to use a fourth of this book." I was WRONG! Generally speaking this book manages to give you ideas for how to give your wedding (or any formal event) the *feel* of the season, but also gives you detailed ideas that may generalize throughout the year. For example: The spring bouquet with some modification would be beautiful for my December bouquet. In addition to the seasonal advice, there are sections called "Fine points" dealing with general details such as "confections" (desserts), table accents (for formal, semi-formal and informal occasions), flowers, etc. The ideas that seem to be lacking in the literally foot-tall stack of bridal magazines are here in this book. Yes, some of the ideas in the book are sorta pricey, but some are less pricey and very do-it-yourself (e.g. Juniper shrubs in galvanized tin buckets, covering the topsoil with moss and tying a silver mesh ribbon around the trunk- VERY cute, and highly do-able). I highly recommend this book! I do wish there were a book for each of the seasons, but until then, don't be afraid of this one!
Beautiful Decoration Ideas for Weddings & Parities February 2, 2001

Wonderfully executed book! With my son's upcoming wedding, all of the wedding planners (mothers, sisters & sister-in-laws) in our family have spent many hours reviewing and re-reviewing the inspiring photos. Each of the four seasons of the year is featured. There are many, many wonderful creative ideas that can be used not only for weddings, but can also be adapted to use other gatherings and events. If you want to make your reception an event to remember - This is the one book to purchase!!!

Purchased this book for ideas for my sister's wedding. The pictures are beautiful and the ideas that you can glean from the photos are limitless. The reason that I gave this book only four stars is because it only covers four wedding receptions. Yes, these wedding receptions are not your average, everyday reception. They obviously cost a small ( or large ) fortune and are therefore not for the average bride. But with a little addaptation the ideas can be used by anyone. I would recommend this book to anyone. Makes a great coffee table book.
