The title is a little unrealistic unless... October 30, 2001

you plan on having your ceremony and reception in the back yard. I still found the book really helpful. I knew there was no way I could have a wedding for 5K or less in the bay area. However, there are great tips on ways to cut corners along the way. The book breaks up the stages of planning into chapters. At the end of some chapters it gives you a list of good questions to ask potential vendors. I read the book cover to cover the first week I got it and now I skim the appropriate chapter the night before I meet with a vendor. I would have been clueless without it.

This was disappointing--to keep the budget down depended on keeping the number of guests WAY down, below normal expectations. Anyone can plan a modestly-priced wedding for 60 people. I had expected more along the lines of "serving your guests a lovely dinner for under $10 a head" similar to magazine articles I've seen in the past. This book is not worth the money to buy it, nor even the time to read it.
Perfect if you want to stay in your budget! August 22, 2001

Lots of suggestions to keep the cost low.
redundant and not about budgeting at all June 13, 2001

This was a very redundant book to every other check list out there, except that it wasn't even interestingly written. It has nothing to do with how to lower your expenses and if you really pay attention, since they are coordinators themselves, it seems pretty obvious to me that it isn't in their interests to keep wedding costs down.

I agree with the reader from LA- this is a nice basic book on how to plan a wedding, but it didn't have any actual tips on how to save money other than plan far ahead and talk to lots of people. I liked the tone of the book, and there was some good information on how to organize and plan, but after reading it I have no idea how to put together an elegant wedding for $5000.
