Hundreds of fantastic tips give great insider advice on how to deal with any and all wedding eventualities (lipstick stain on dress, caterer from hell, wedding day breakout).

The best wedding idea book ever for creative couples
I was so relieved to find this when my husband and I were planning our wedding. Almost all the books out there for wedding ideas are craft, frou frou, or really outdated. I didn't steal every idea from this book but it allowed me to really think about the things I wanted without having to follow every wedding 'tradition' out there and still have a nice relative friendly ceremony and reception. Thank god for people who think outside the box!
Very comforting.
I think this book is extremely helpful to those who want to mark the occasion of their wedding with love and celebration, but don't want to be one of those chicks that obsesses over nit-picky matchy details. It was very reassuring to me, and made me feel like it was okay to not want to wear a white dress and buck tradition in other ways. I highly recommend it to anyone who loves their fiance, but starts to panic at the enormity of the task ahead of them.
Talks a big game, but typical wedding book
The idea of this book is great, the execution is not. This book is a pretty typical wedding planning book, with a few nontraditional ideas here and there. What I wanted from this book are real tips for people who have not been obsessed with their wedding since elementary school, but it did not deliver. In my opinion, anti-brides do not register at Tiffany's and do not wear couture bridal gowns. I'll stick with Bridal Bargains which is a great book for those who are not obsessed.
don't bother
i bought this book and am returning it. a waste of money. nothing helpful or with original ideas. i am a younge hip creative person and i found this book to be useless. the few "non" traditional ideas the book gave any person with half a brain can think up on their own. i am having an untraditional wedding and i really got nothing from this book. dont waste your money!
Non Traditional wedding
This is THE book I have been looking for! It has given me ideas that I would never have contemplated!
