This little book is full of good information. The budget guide and the checklists are very helpful.I had no idea what I would be expected to spend but there is a good guide in this book that I have used with each vendor.

I bought three books on weddings. This was the smallest, the cheapest and the one I use most often. It is small enough to carry with you while running your "wedding errands".

Every Mom is both excited for her daughter (or son's) wedding, yet doesn't want to be in the way. This Emily Post primer helps Mom organize to be aware and helpful. I know my daughter; she will have her own ideas and connections.She will have a wedding planner, too. Nevertheless, it is both fun and constructive for Mom to be involved as a listener, story teller, coach and "yes" person. This book puts the excitement into perspective.

With the upcoming marriage of my daughter I was looking for an organizer and a planner for mom. The size was easy to carry around, and the envelope in the back for saving receipts is a good idea. The resources chapter at the back was helpful for comparison shopping.

This book came the closest of any to what I was looking for, but still had some shortcomings. The sections of etiquette and advice were interesting but too wordy and repetitive. Suggestions for a second edition would be to minimize the words of advice, and add to each chapter blank pages for extra note taking when planning. That would make it handy to keep gathered information organized. Dividers with tabs between the chapters for ease in finding the desired section would simply searching for information.

I purchased this book to use when planning my daughter's wedding. It was too small to be adequate. Moreover, its coverage of issues was superficial. It was useless to me.

this is a great, well organized guide. It is a little repetitive, but the lists and charts are very helpful.
