Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal
The perfect book for those who dream of a princess' wedding on a peasant's income. Warner offers information on everything from invitations, dresses, food, flowers, music, and pictures to cost estimates from people all over America. While the fees may become dated, the suggestions for cost-cutting will not. Readers have to be really organized to pull this all off, but Warner helps them do that, too, by setting up a bride's notebook.

From Library Journal
Warner's daughter announced that she and her fiance wanted to marry in four months and have a large, traditional wedding. This book is drawn from the copious notes Warner kept while investigating the buying, renting, baking, etc., needed for that wedding, as well as the suggestions she received from friends, relatives, and others along the way. She shows how to set up a plan and calendar. Frustrated with wedding books which did not cover actual costs, she includes here such information for seven geographical areas in the United States and offers some estimates for Canadian readers. Filled with numerous charts, organizational tips, and personal solutions, this is a practical dollars-and-cents consumer guide to maintaining a wedding budget by a woman who spent less than half the national average of $11,000. Recommended for wedding book collections.
