Regain Some Perspective...and Laugh!

I was heading down an ugly path...a bride-to-be swimming in the quicksand of planning a dream wedding...on a budget...barraged by the endless "must-haves" that are forced on brides from every angle. Not only was I getting stressed out, but I was driving my fiancee nuts.I either needed to quit my job and take on the planning of my wedding full time, or GET SOME PERSPECTIVE! The Funny Bride Guide saved me! Given to me as a gift (was this a hint?), this book had me laughing immediately. So many of the authors' dead-on observations and examples could have been pulled right from my experiences. I loved the fact that it was an easy read -- why make more out of it than it is? Brides-to-be don't have the time to weed through zillions of pages to get to the meat! Its a great little handbook, full of priceless tips and advice from authors that have obviously been there before. Hats off to Moro and Barrett for helping me to see the light: planning a wedding should be about you, and it should be fun! If you are taking it all a little too seriously (or know someone else who is), please do yourself (and your fiancee, friends and family) a favor -- read this book!

Great humor, excellent advice!

I'm in the process of planning my second wedding. The first time around, I read the "usual" books; you know, the ones that presume you have an infinite budget and that you only want the most traditional of ceremonies and receptions. This time, it's a little different. I wanted something that would give me useful information and be an enjoyable read. I definitely found it in "The Funny Bride Guide." This book contains good, sound advice along with some outstanding humor (e.g., repeated reminders not to let your lipstick fade). There is even a section entitled "gift receiving," which gives you ideas on how to handle multiples of the same gift (some ideas humorous, some serious) and the gift that cannot be identified. I read this aloud to my fiance, Jeff, and he found it absolutely hilarious. However, he *also* went back to re-read it and glean the valuable information contained in the pages. This is a quick, enjoyable read that will provide the most essential how-to information for wedding planning. I recommend it highly to anyone planning a wedding -- first, second ... fifth ... it will definitely be of assistance.

The Funny Bride Guide

As a male, I am totally ignorant of wedding etiquette. I have a sister-in-law who is to be married shortly, so I went looking for some assistance. Admittedly, I am intimidated by the whole affair so I wanted a book that would not add anymore pressure. I looked through several books, which not only further intimidated me, but reinforced the fact that I am completely out of my element. I was about to throw in the towel when I picked up The Funny Bride Guide. As frustrated as a wedding inept male can get, I began to laugh at the first page. I continued laughing through the day as I finished reading the book. I was so relieved and pleased I went and purchased another copy for my soon to be sister-in-law. She has thanked me non-stop for alleviating some stress with the use of The Funny Bride Guide. Thank you very much to the ladies who were so considerate of a man who only wants to do whats right with the least amount of pain. Kudos!

Bravo!

You're book is fantastic! A must read for every bride no matter how large or small the wedding she is planning. Every page is a gem of practical knowledge and humor. It really lets the air out of the worry. I loved the adorable illustrations and I laughed out loud many times, (a true test 'eh?) Well done!

To love, honor and laugh!

This is the book I wish someone had given ME when I was planning my wedding! I laughed all the way through "The Funny Bride Guide", because authors Barrett and Moro not only tell it like it really is, they come up with the most hysterical solutions, responses and ideas. These girlfriends can prepare any female for the befuddling bridal moments your mother won't tell you about and you won't read about in the magazines. I'll be sending a copy of "The Funny Bride Guide" not only to my friends who are planning a wedding, I'll be sending a copy to my mom AND to my married girlfriends, so we can share a laugh over "remember when this happened?" or "if only we had thought of saying this!"
