...and plan your own wedding.

It took me ages and ages to find a book which catered to my needs. Basically, I wanted a wedding which was not too formal, and not too expensive. I have found the Bride's Wedding Planner to be just so useful in the planning of my wedding! It has given me loads of hints on how to do things cheaply - it's full of great ideas to ensure that your day runs smoothly.

My fiance and I made good use of the section on writing our vows to each other - this planner has been a godsend for us! We refer to it for everything. It is not something I would want to carry around with me to use, but as a guide - for reference purposes only, it is perfect. In the back of the folder, there is a pocket that would fit about A5 size paper inside - but only about 10 sheets, it's not that big.

Within the planner there are loads of forms and checklists which make it so much easier to remember everything that is involved.
