Invaluable information!, November 20, 2002
This review is from: Vermont Wedding & Event Resource Guide (Paperback)
I'm in the midst of planning a wedding in Vermont from my home in Philadelphia. This book has been exactly what I needed to do the long-distance research to find reception sites, photographers, videographers, florists, DJs, etc. Each chapter of the book has a few pages of information you could find in any other book or bridal magazine: how to set up a budget, announcing your engagement, who will pay for the wedding, how to choose a vendor, etc. The book's real value, for me, was in the lists of vendors (especially photographers, videographers, florists, DJs, and bakers) which was something I was surprised I couldn't find much of on the Internet. Each vendor has a one-page description and contact information including address, phone number, fax number, and website (when available). There are 65 reception sites, 3 beauty salons/spas, 8 bridal/tux salons, 5 bakeries, 11 caterers, 32 ceremony sites/churches, 5 consultants, 6 rental companies, 5 favor companies, 6 florists, 6 gift registry stores, 4 invitation stores, 14 DJs and musicians, 14 photographers/videographers, 3 transportation rental companies, and a long list of guest accomodations, rehearsal dinner sites, and honeymoon sites. There are also tables of monthly temperature averages and sunrise/sunset times, contact info for Vermont Chambers of Commerce, Vermont marriage laws, maps of the state, and more. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone planning a Vermont wedding, especially from out of state. (Tip: Chambers of Commerce can also provide a lot of helpful information)
