For readers of the bestsellling book The Rules, journalist Sharon Naylor presents a no-nonsense guide on how to look for objective, logical reasons either to stay in or get out of a relationship. For every woman who is looking for a resolution to a relationship dilemma or who wants to feel confident when making a decision about one.
Sharon Naylor is the author of over 35 wedding planning books and as a noted wedding expert has appeared on top television programs including I Do! With the Knot, Get Married With Colin Cowie, Good Morning America, Primetime, Lifetime, ABC News, and many more. She has also been featured in InStyle Weddings, Modern Bride, Brides, Wedding Channel, The Wall Street Journal, Bridal Guide, Southern Bride, New York Bride, New Jersey Bride, and as the resident wedding Q&A expert and spotlight blogger at iVillage.
Sharon has always advised brides and grooms to prepare for the marriage, not just the wedding, and all of her books focus not just on planning details like designing a wedding cake or choosing a gown, but on the *relationships* that build between the couple and their in-laws, the relationships that may change between the couple and their single friends, and the relationships a couple can create between themselves and their wedding vendors. Weddings may be stressful to plan, but they don't have to create stress in your life. Sharon Naylor's 20+ years in the wedding industry have exposed her to so many different personality types trying to work together, she knows the kinds of clashes that can happen and she advises against every type of planning or communication mistake. The goal is, of course, a beautiful and personalized wedding day, but Sharon Naylor wants you to *enjoy* the process with the positive people you know, always taking the time to think about what's going *well* instead of what's still left to do or what's disappointing.
Sharon Naylor says she gravitated to wedding world because it's comprised of all of her favorite things: travel, gourmet food, floral design, fashion, photography, dance...and most importantly the gathering of far-flung friends and family to celebrate a happy occasion.
A recent newlywed, she lives in Morristown NJ with her husband Joe and she is currently the wedding spokesperson for several high-profile corporate brands.
