2.0 out of 5 stars Over-rated and over-priced, August 13, 2006

By	Jaclyn C. Tamas "reading diva" (Cleveland & HI) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: How to Start a Wedding Planning Business (Paperback)

I was disappointed with this book. I didn't learn anything new from reading this book, which was really disappointing. For the price, it's just not thorough. There are many other books on the subject that offer the same advice and are a better value for your money. If I'd have had the chance to flip through this first I would not have spent the money on this book. Over-rated and over-priced.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Information, March 13, 2006

By	Jennifer A. Groomes "Mrs. Wedding Planner" (Romeo, MI) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: How to Start a Wedding Planning Business (Paperback)

This book not only helps you set up your wedding and/or event planning business, it gives you insight into the wedding business. Understanding your market is essential to starting your own business. Ms. Phillips understands this and covers it in detail. Not only did I enjoy this book, it inspired me to take her online certification course. I owned my wedding business prior to taking the course. This book and her course truly gave me insight on how to further my business. As a bonus, I can now add the accrediation of being a "Certified Wedding Planner" to my business plan.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Outline, Poor Content- Not Worth $100+, October 17, 2007

By	poenix1933 (Berkeley, CA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: How to Start a Wedding Planning Business (Paperback)

This book is an excellent blueprint for those starting their own wedding planning business; following the end of chapter assignments alone will help you do everything from write your business plan to set up your pricing structure and create brochures in a managable, logical way. However, the bulk of the information provided is perfunctory at best and the fact that it is self published shows in the amature page layout and reliance on reprinted articles that offten feel like advertisments for the articles's author or his/her product. I'm glad I bought How To Start A Wedding Planning Business (HTSAWPB) because, as I stated, the end of chapter assignments are very usefull and it does give a good overview of everything involved. However, this is simply not a stand alone book. I also bought Start Your Own Event Planning Business: Your Step-by-Step Guide to Success and it is MUCH more informative with better, more fact based content and it complemented HTSAWPB well.

The Bottom Line: Go ahead and buy it if you can get a used copy (It's NOT worth $100+, I paid $50 and still overpaid), but don't make it the only book in your library on the subject
