 A dissapointment February 8, 2006

I was hoping for something unique, but it's just like all the other pro-bride, pro-industry, pro-spend-a-LOT-of-money-on-a-wedding planners (but in a "non-traditional" pink disguise). The mere fact that it has diamond rings circling the page numbers should have been my first clue. If you are really looking for some unique and inspirational ideas, you will not find them here. That said, it is still a pretty decent planner, has a few (FEW) unique tips, and pockets and space for contact info, etc. Look it over in a bookstore if possible before you buy.
Not so anti, but somewhat helpful August 2, 2005

If you are truly looking for completely unique ideas that defy what a bride and wedding should be, then the planner is not so great. While it is one of the more forward thinking books on the market for brides, I still felt like it was telling me to become a slave to the wedding industry.
If you are looking for a workbook to brainstorm ideas, it is great. It has a lot of free space, checklists, questions to ask, and pockets to hold stuff. You could however get the same tips and checklists from several bridal magazines or online and save youself the cost of the book.
The illustrations are adorable, but I was not crazy about the organization of the planner. If you are a super-organized person like myself, you will probably do better using a computer or notebook like I did. If you are not naturally organized, then this book will probably help give you some structure.
 A great planner, but not alone July 13, 2005

I've been planning for 4 months. I've looked at 15+ planners. I've bought 4. And I've found that this book, along with Martha Stewart's Wedding Planner as a companion, are the way to go. There is no one single planner out there that "has it all." Martha's planner is great because it has a 3 ring binder where you can add all your vendor contracts and your own pages. But this planner has some fun quizzes and inspiration for the unique bride. I have, use, and suggest, both together. It's a convenient size for carting around, and a fun read. This is a good planner, but I can't stress enough the importance of having a 3-ring binder planner for your vendor contracts also. You'll thank me later.
 A gem ... every bit as bold as the one on my hand! May 2, 2005
Finally, the right size guide with the right info for those of us doing things our own way ... not necessarily the way our mothers did it. The authors hit the nail on the head with non-traditional approaches to everything from parties to clothes and then some. Lots of space for my own notes, easy to carry to appointments, and easy on the eyes ... this planner is a prize.

This planner made my life sooo much easier, starting with the size. It isn't much larger than my day runner. I had this huge binder size planner that stayed at home most of the time because I couldn't take it anywhere!!!! This planner has sooo much space for notes, biz cards, ideas and pockets for receipts clippings etc. I you're looking for a planner or you're looking for a different one this is it. The tips on the inside were great, each section has a list of questions for prospective vendors that I have to admit that I hadn't thought to ask until I read them. All around I would recommend this planner to each and every bride!!!
