1.0 out of 5 stars Worthless, March 9, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Modern Bride Honeymoons and Weddings Away: The Complete Guide to Planning Your Romantic Trip Ever (Modern Bride Library) (Paperback)

Unless you need help packing or planning for a trip, there is very little here of value with respect to honeymoons (I can't evaluate its worth with respect to planning a wedding). I was hoping for specific recommendations of places to stay for a honeymoon. This book offered only one paragraph descriptions of the destinations in general (plus a couple of sentences about things to do). If you are looking for a book which offers suggestions on specific resorts/hotels to go for a honeymoon, don't waste your money here.

If you are looking for the proper way to handle the logistics of a wedding away, this is NOT the book for you. It was really useless!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Modern Bride's Honeymoons and Weddings Away Is A Must!!, January 22, 1998

By	Jennifer Malphy (Hillsboro, WI USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Modern Bride Honeymoons and Weddings Away: The Complete Guide to Planning Your Romantic Trip Ever (Modern Bride Library) (Paperback)

My husband and I had decided to get married in Jamaica, but we didn't know the first thing about how to plan for something like this. This book told us everything we needed to know: travel packages, foreign travel, tips for creating romantic moments, ways to avoid stressful situations, and even those places that are just for lovers! If you are planning a wedding away, I wouldn't be without this book! Jennifer Malphy
