Gorgeous and inspiring

The photography is gorgeous, the ideas are inspiring - overall, a solid portfolio of some of the best designing in the world. It not only provides a glimpse into the over-the-top world of haute couture weddings and fetes, but also provides details and inspirational ideas for anyone. A can-do attitude combined with a book that is well written, beautifully conceived and flawlessly executed. Well done, Mr. Bailey.

Fabulous!

It was exactly as it said...a resource for creating the party of your dreams. If you're the type of person who thinks buffalo wings is a party staple...it's not for you.

excellent

If you would like to see the finest design work done in NYC, get this book. His sensibility to detail is astounding!

Beautiful & Elegant

Preston Bailey's book is simply beautiful and elegant. I had seen snipets of Melissa Rivers' wedding on television and in print, but the pictures in the book really bring it to life. I never knew so much could be done with flowers and fruit, until I bought this book. It is a real treat!

fabulous

I've seen Preston Bailey on Oprah and read about him in Town & Country, but nothing compares to this fabulous book. In this book, Preston gives a sneak peek into the parties of the rich and famous. The photographs are stunning!!
