I am going to be a bridesmaid in a wedding this August and this book was exactly what I needed to help me know what to do and how to "be fabulous" while doing it. This book is very informative, but with a witty edge that makes it very entertaining. I wouldn't want to be in a wedding without having the knowledge this book has given me.

A friend recently showed me a copy of this book because my daughter is getting married. I found the book to be wonderful and so infomative that I had to buy a copy for all of my daughter's bridesmaids. This book covers all the basic bridesmaids' duties and provides very creative, unique ways to make the whole process fun and successful. I highly recommend this book to everyone who is getting married!

I found this book really enjoyable. I don't know much about weddings, the first one I'll be in is my own, so I wanted to get an idea about the bridesmaid thing. I thought that it does a pretty good job of explaining what the modern bridesmaid does. It was very well laid out, and easy to read (takes an hour and a half if you can sit down and go through it at once). I've already given it to one of my bridesmaids, and will be getting a copy for my other one very soon.

This book is just okay: no big surprises
I think this book would be helpful for a bridesmaid/MOH who is totally clueless, but I was looking more for specific ideas than generalities, and didn't find it in this book. Read more

Good for ideas, not a job description
My complaint about works in this genre is that they "feed the bridezilla beast." Like wedding websites and magazines (which, are of course, products of the wedding industry), this... Read more
