Customer Reviews

Wonderful book!

Wonderful book! Lots of helpful hints! I have two points to offer: First, I loved how the authors actually tell you what to say to the various wedding service providers that I am dealing with. The book even includes a mock conversation with a photographer about how to get your final photographs when photographers take their time returning your pictures. Second, as a woman who is planning her wedding I was very intimidated by how I should interact with the wedding vendors and I LOVED the book's central idea, that is, that if you are afraid of a formal negotiation, just think of it as ASKING questions so that you can make informed decisions about your wedding planning. I wholeheartedly agree: It is less scary to ask questions than to visualize a tough bargaining session. This book is saving me hard-earned money - well done!

Best wedding planning book EVER!

I read dozens of books when I planned my wedding, and this is by far the best of all. It gave actually useful advice, and it was really fun to read. The fact that the advice was all scientifically based just made it that much more persuasive.

OUTSTANDING! Best I've seen in wedding planning!

I've looked at several wedding planning books (as do many brides-to-be), but never have I seen one so well written, thoughtful and practical. I picked up this book while putting the last details on my own wedding planning. I specifically used its advice in negotiating price and arrangements for the wedding gown and flower arrangements. I saw so many of the tricks coming and now have extra money left over to indulge in an extravagant honeymoon! I wish I had found the book earlier! I'm sure these negotiation tactics will even carry over into my consulting career. Believe me, take a look.
