 Bridal Bargains: Number one choice for all bride's-to-be July 22, 1997
Denise and Alan Fields have obviously done their homework and have given brides the tools to tacklethe players in the bridal industry-- from the caterer to the photographer. They list questions to ask each vendor to prevent the bride from falling prey to industry scams. The authors also updates brides on the lastest trends for all wedding budgets. I found out how to get engraved invitations on Crane paper for a fraction of the retail price!!!
Great whether or not you're on a budget May 15, 1997

Even if your parents have given given you carteblanche, this is a great book, as it explainspitfalls at every stage of the wedding process, such as why you might not get the dress you ordered and ways caterers inflate bills. I learned a lot and expect my wedding plans to go more smoothly because of it. This book isn't about having cheap weddings; it's about not wasting money or being cheated.
A must have for all brides-to-be!!! March 6, 1997
I read this book cover to cover; then I read it again. It is helping so much in planning my wedding that I don't even know where to begin. Guaranteed to save to $500 off your wedding expenses, it's worth every penny spent on this one! I found a dress for $590 thanks to this book. Also has tips on ceremony sites, recpetion sites, finding a photographer& videographer & more. A real must have for all brides
Great for the not-so-fouffy bride February 13, 1997

I'm not your typical BRIDE magazine reader. I live in Las Vegas, and I would have been happy to get married at the drive-thru wedding chapel on the back of my fiance's motorcycle. Believe it or not, HE wanted a regular wedding back east, and I agreed. Having heard just enough about the shark-infested waters of the bridal industry to fill me with dread, I was very unwilling to be its victim. This book made me feel much more confident in my ability to defend myself against the rip-offs. It saved me a lot of wasted time trying to figure out (probably unsuccessfully) how to find the best bargains myself. I knew what to expect and was able to decide which items or services I felt were worth the money. I am actually starting to enjoy the whole wedding planning process thanks to this book. It was the only wedding book I found with realistic money saving advice besides the blatantly obvious suggestions like "make your own decorations." This book is to weddings what Consumer Reports' dealer cost reports are to car buying. Buy it
 Here's a reality check for Martha Stewart February 6, 1997
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
If you've recently picked up a copy of Modern Bride, or a wedding planning guide by the likes of Martha Stewart, you might get the impression that only the Sultan of Brunei can affort to get married. Bridal Bargains is a good reality check for the rest of us. Not only will this book help you save money, it will tell you how to get the most for every dollar you spend on wedding services. The authors uncover many of the rip-offs and outright scams that go on in the wedding industry. Did you know that the average wedding dress, which costs around $1,000, is made to be a disposable garment? That the award-winning photographer probably sends his less-talented assistant out on wedding shoots? If you're planning a wedding, read this book and be a smart bridal consumer
