No Nonsense Wedding Planning For the Busy Bride, February 9, 2006
This review is from: Plan Your Wedding In No Time (Paperback)
In the world of wedding planning there are two very distinct types of brides. In one corner we have those that delight in fussing over even the most minuscule wedding details, regardless of the endless time it consumes, seeming to enjoy the process as much as they do the end result. And in the other corner there are those busy brides who either simply don't have that kind of time, or just aren't into obsessing over details - they just want to get the job done so they can get on with the celebration.
Plan Your Wedding... In No Time by-passes the "fru-fru", getting you right down to the nitty-gritty of wedding planning. The average wedding takes about 250 hours to plan, making it rather like a second job for the typical bride-to-be. This presents quite the challenge for many of todays's brides, who are often juggling a whole whack of existing demands on their time, which can range from career responsibilities to children.
If you are the sort of bride who simply doesn't have time to obsess over every step in the wedding planning process, or if you find yourself easily overwhelmed by details, this is the book for you. Practical advice is presented in a well organized format to take you step by step through the planning process, cutting through the fluff, for a no-nonsense, down to business approach to just getting the job done. The charts, resource lists, icons, and tip boxes make this book particularly attractive for the visual learner. Though it covers a lot of ground, it's not overwhelmingly text-heavy.
Presented in an easy to read, conversational style, each section provides to-do lists, time estimates, and special notes and tips to make the process as straight-forward and well organized as possible. Handy text boxes are dotted throughout the book's pages making it easy for the reader to quickly zero in on important information. Even the more organizationally challenged bride will feel like she's got it under control.
The time estimates provided for each task are a real plus since the typical bride is not an experienced wedding planner and generally has no idea when trying to realistically determine how much time the process will take.
Overall, Plan Your Wedding... In No Time offers efficient advice to jump-start the planning process. A terrific approach to wedding planning for the busy, no-nonsense bride who just wants to get the planning done and put away - so she can focus on the fun
