This book has everything you could ever want in a handcrafted wedding book. It is a must-have for anyone planning a wedding or a themed party. It is full of creative ideas with lots of pictures to inspire. It begins with your engagement and selecting a theme then continues to incorporate clever detailed tips to include in your wedding day. Even if you dreamed about your ideal wedding, this book will guide you through the process and assist you in adding that personal touch you never thought to include. I like how the author reflects on the importance of a couple and includes guidelines for men and women. I am extremely happy with my purchase.
