I hate to break it to you, but…

There is one, however, that isn’t quite so worthless. In fact, it’s not worthless at all. If I were to recommend ONE wedding planning guide, resource, what-have-you, I would tell you to buy this one:

I didn’t buy this book initially because it didn’t look too exciting—it wasn’t hot pink, it didn’t look very fun, I thought it had a fairly cheesy title, and I just judged it by its cover. After buying about every other book on the planet, including every terrible one offered by The Knot, I decided it was time to look at some reviews. This book consistently was reviewed as being the very best. I put aside my book-judging and went out and bought it.

Let me tell you––it is the ONLY wedding book that I’ve used fairly religiously, and it’s the most comprehensive one I’ve found. Not only is it packed with answers to pretty much any question you might have regarding weddings, it also is fairly style-and-level-of-conservativeness-neutral. There is information and etiquette for different levels of strictness. You don’t have to barf because of a cheesy photo of a bride holding your least favorite flowers. You can get your information without having to wade through pages of crap.

Another thing I like about this book is the layout. I tend to glaze over at pages of solid text. Every page of this book has diagrams, examples, little blurb-boxes without stupid questions, tables—you name it. It quells the ADHD monster inside of me, holds my attention, and, well, I pretty much love this sucker.

So yes, if you’re in need of a great wedding book and one whose advice I’d trust implicitly, go buy this book. It is $13.57 on Amazon. Win.

Look forward to next time, where I’ll let you in on which book launched 1,000 panic attacks.

Any other lovers of this book out there? Who else has had problems finding a wedding book that was worth four hoots?
