The Lifetime Wedding Planner Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I used this planner as a guide for my wedding. I found the details in each chapter helpful and informative for my planning. There are pockets at each chapter header to allow you to stuff papers, business cards, and the like allowing this to be the only item you'd need to carry around.
Each chapter starts w/ something you can read detailing questions to think about and the best way to handle things like registering for gifts, selecting your officiant, and wedding traditions you may want to include in your ceremonly. At the end of each chapter are pages to keep track of notes, details on vendors you've seen, questions that help you narrow down your choices and a few pages dedicated to questions that allow you to journal your experiences. (Brides are busy and for me, this book covered the basics and more.)
I loved the elastic band that came around the book. It was sturdy enough to keep all my papers and samples in once place while I went throught the decision making & planning processes.
I would recommend this planner for purchase and have given in to multipe friends as engagement gifts.

The Everything Wedding Organizer; Checklists, calendars, and worksheets for planning the perfect wedding Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought four wedding planners/ ettiquette books for my wedding and I found this one to be the most helpful of ALL of them! The ettiquite books are great for reference, but the other PLANNERS are too large for taking to appointments! (most are 8x11" or larger) This planner's SIZE is perfect, and it had everything in it for ALL of my appointments...all the information I needed, plus worksheets and space for notes. I have recommended the book to 4 friends of my mine who are getting married and all 4 have thanked me over and again for pointing out this book to them! We all had different budgets and ideas, and the book helped all of us to plan the perfect wedding! My suggestion: get this book and a small day planner or calendar, take them with you to every appointment, and you'll be on your way to your dream wedding!

Emily Post's Wedding Planner Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My fiance and I were just beginning the wedding planning process, and neither of us had had much experience with weddings. We wanted to know more about what is supposed to happen (ideally) and who is supposed to do what (ideally): who pays for which expenses, who performs what roles during and before the ceremony, what kinds of extra-ceremony events to consider having (shower, bachelor party), etc. We are not ultra-conventional people and not slaves to tradition; however, we did at least want to know what the traditions were before breaking them. This book was perfect for that purpose. Peggy Post has done a wonderful job of presenting the basic facts about the traditional American wedding while also pointing out the many, many areas where those traditions are surprisingly *flexible*. Thanks to this book, we were able to plan a wedding that was both socially correct AND perfectly suited to our own particular values, sensibilities, and budget. The book is easy to use, well-organized, and has an excellent overall tone--unlike the Martha Stewart wedding planner, which although very well-organized is rather brusque in tone and not user-friendly. Also unlike the Stewart book, the Post book does NOT require that you be rich. Most of the advice in the Emily Post wedding planner can be followed with low dollar amounts as well as with high dollar amounts. Thank God! It was a big relief to know that a wedding can be perfectly gracious and correct without necessarily being ridiculously expensive. The planner was also useful for resolving disputes: we bought copies for our parents as well, so that if there was ever a question or debate, we could simply refer to page whatever and that would be the end of that. Heaven knows there is no more authoritative source on these matters than Emily Post!

Working Woman'S Wedding Planner 3Rd Edition Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)You need a planner and it might as well be this one. It includes every possible form and list you will ever need for your wedding. If you're having trouble putting it all together, this will help you organize.
That said, it's a good planner but don't look to it for guidance as far as the details of your wedding are concerned. You will need something else (bridal magazine, etc) to help you locate a site, interview possibilities, and compare prices. This book literally will give you a place to organize after you have selected all the components of your wedding. It only helps you plan and organize what you have already chosen.
In addition to the forms and lists, there are chapters written by the author. Tatsui-D'Arcy simply glazes over different parts of your wedding presenting the traditional stance and a few modern variations. Unfortunately there isn't a lot of room to write notes outside of the forms and lists themselves.
The author does include some useful information as it relates to how those with blended families could write their invitations and how an engagement announcement can be written.

Do I Have To Wear White?: Emily Post Answers America's Top Wedding Questions Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)It takes almost a year to plan the wedding. I first got this book in the library and after extending it 3 times I realized that I want to have the copy of my own, since I have been going back to this book again and again for each step of the planning.
All the questions answered in this book are very targeted to each section. If you never planed the wedding or you have no idea what the formal etiquette is this book will be really helpful. Its small format allows you to carry it with you and be like your small cheat sheet.
Highly recommended for all first time brides or parents who help to plan the wedding.

Diane Warner's Contemporary Guide To Wedding Etiquette: Advice From America's Most Trusted Wedding Expert (Hal Leonard Wedding Essentials) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This book is easy to read, easy to use, and easy to understand. It is a complete run down of all the necessary details and nicities to make for a wonderful, memorable wedding. She is not overbearing on the etiquette aspect of a wedding, but gently and kindly explains the effects of doing things in a "proper" way. I have enjoyed reading this and have found it enormously helpful. I would suggest this as the first place to go for wedding advice.

You may be planning a totally laid back wedding on the beach, surrounded by a few close friends and family members, followed by an informal clambake "reception." Surprisingly, in spite of the relaxed setting and casual ceremony, if you want to avoid hurt feelings and damaged relationships, certain rules of etiquette must still be followed. For example:* When you become engaged, which parents should be told first? * How do you choose an honor attendant when you can't decide between your sister and your best friend? * If your parents are involved in a bitter divorce and can't stand to be in the same room at the same time, should you invite both parents to your wedding? This book includes advice for every aspect of the wedding-from the engagement period, the budget, and pre-wedding festivities to the legalities, the rehearsal, and, of course, the ceremony and reception. It also includes practical advice for second-time brides who want to include their children in the ceremony and for those couples wrestling with the pros and cons of prenuptial agreements.

It has forms for you to fill out everything pertaining to the big day...jot down who is going to be in the bridal party, what food do you want to serve, etc. It tells you how to get a caterer, florist, photographer, etc, and tells you all the questions you need to ask them beforehand to make sure you're getting the best value for your money. It also explains how everything is done in Christian and Jewish ceremonies. There are so many things in here you would never even think of...how to set a budget once you are married, what forms of birth control to use, it explains all the different styles of gowns and veils, tells you what the mother of the groom and bride are supposed to do, who pays for what, and there is a calender for you and him for each month to tell you what needs to get done. If you thought of it, it's in here. They even give you suggestions of what song you could dance the first dance to, how to preserve your dress, and more. This is a REALLY great deal on a wedding planner.
